This won't work on all channel inserts, it depends on whether the mixer 
return is on
the tip or the ring. It's easy to make an "channel insert input" cable 
though, use a
TS plug on one end and a TRS on the other end, with only the return & 
ground wired.

...and you can also create a nasty feedback loop if you feed the effect's 
returns to
it's input. But yeah, definitely nice to have the other possibhilities 
too. It's
nice to EQ the output of some processors too.
