Rules of Thumb For Effect Signal Chains?

[dannybuoy]

I thought where it says A+B it means A&B in parallel, and A->B means the footswitch switches between A, then B, then bypass? :ph34r:

Thats right, it runs the a&b signals in parallel. Love this pedal, my most useful effects pedal.

So what everyone’s saying is that there are no rules? – If it sounds good then it sounds good, if it sounds sh*t then try something different?

That’s an interesting place to start I think, and that’s kind of what I was trying to get at; a simple place to start if you don’t have a clue, like me
