Effects routing

Post by Schorsch »

Hi,

someone in a German musician forum was asking about the effects routing of the Stage, if it is left to right or in a different order, and is is the same for all engines or different per engine. Interesting question, does someone know?

Hi Scorsch, here an older discussion on that topic nord-stage-forum-f3/nord-stage-fx-chain ... 13936.html that was probably not completed (or maybe yes, with the test of the last post, I report it below) but at least has some info to start from.

Cheers :))

Remember that it might depend on the effects type as well. I somehow remember Wah being pre-Ampsim, and Autopan as post-Ampsim. Not sure though.
