Bi-amping with effects!!!

Recommended Posts

Hi, I am writing for some help and advice with my new GK rig. I own a GK 1001 RB-II with a GK 410 RBX-II, its a great rig and I love the power and clarity that I get from it but I am looking for some advice about using effects with the set up. I own a boss overdrive pedal and I like to use this to add some "dirt" to my tone now and then, I have never used effects with my new GK set up because I am new to the bi-amping feature on the rig and I am a little scared to use effects whilst in this mode.

My questions to you are:

How safe is it to use an effect like overdrive while bi-amping without damaging the horn/woofer?

and

How will this effect my sound? Should I run effects in front of the amp or through the FX loop?


Any help and advice about bi-amping whilst using effects would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time!

Jack

I don't see why it would make any difference at all. I used to run a pedal board into my peavey combo which had a built in crossover for bi-amping, which I did using a guitar amp. A bi-amp system is just like another type of amp, there's no reason you should damage anything.
