For my main sound I go series. Within this strand, I have both delay and reverb.
When I wish to ADD some additional efx, including delay I do so in parallel.
Once upon a time in the late 1980s I had a monster rig with two 24 space racks, four multichannel amp heads slaved to line level and three 4x12s on stage. Back then we wanted to preserve the dry tone from becoming digitized, so we ran all efx in parallel. The Axe Fx is digital so the point is moot.
I've attached a photo of a typical strand with an additional couple of efx that I add together via one button push on my MFC to give a jet chamber effect, similar to that I use to employ using a PCM-80. It just adds a subtle grease to single note lines.
Really ... ? VAN HALEN w/a Recto Orange Modern ... ? I've got to get a closer look at that patch ? WOW !
Any chance you could share it ?
THANKS !
