So Running the dry FX before a clean channel and the wet fx in a parallel FX loop is kind of „mono“ WDW with parallel routing then? (As it’s justs one amp)
Fallen in love with your channel! Such great info laid out and presented really well! Subbed Also, how much does one of those Custom Junctions usually run?
Thanks! Appreciate that. Custom junctions have a HUGE range in price. Anywhere from $60 up to $600+ depending on how crazy you want to go. If you email me - info@goodwoodaudio.com we can set up a phone call and talk about what might make your board easier to use / more functional!
I find a simple R/L stereo rig using the fx loop of my amp going into a stereo rack unit (Intellifex or Replifex) and then out to the original amp (R) and a second power amp and speaker (L) satisfies my need for stereo effects, primarily chorus and panned delays. Hey, if it's good enough for Robben Ford, it's good enough for me. A W/D/W rig could be the only way to go for the next guy. It just depends on the sounds you're going for.
Phase is referring to the sine wave of your guitar signal. if 360 degrees is one full wave, we are inverting the phase of that sine wave by 180 degrees. Polarity, at least in the music industry, tends to refer to DC power (like a polarity inverter when referring to a DC cable). Phase (again, maybe this is more just for the music industry???) is very commonly used when referring to audio transformers and manipulating the sine wave of your audio signal. Hopefully that makes sense.... let me know if not.
@@GoodwoodAudio Polarity is an electrical mirror inversion of the AC signal, e.g. what was positive in now negative, what was negative is now positive, and is the same at all frequencies. This is what happens when you swap leads on a transformer. Phase relates to time so a frequency and its even harmonics will be out of polarity where others will have different phase time relationships since frequencies have different time periods. So they are not the same, but "many" in the industry get it wrong. FYI, guitar signals are not sign waves, there are always harmonics with the fundamental. There are many sites explaining phase & polarity, here is the first one I found and seems to be pretty good- www.justmastering.com/article-phase-and-polarity.php
@@genebrandt8424 Good to know! I've never once heard it used this way in the MI. Gonna have to look into it, but honestly, don't think I could change if I wanted to at this stage. Phase is synonymous with a 180deg flip of the sine wave for guitar pedals. Might just be one of those things for better or for worse. Thanks for letting me know!
@@Ottophil But it is important to understand the difference. They are NOT the same. There are so many myths in the audio field. People don't understand time vs frequency, time delays verse phase shift from an all pass filter, etc. Without knowing the accurate physics, how are people supposed to understand this stuff correctly? In my class I demonstrate all this. FYI - substitute "nerd" for "engineer".
Definitely phasing does yes. Ground lift not as much since you usually run bass to DIs. If you were to run 2 bass amps, its definitely possible to get ground loops though!

there are definitely similarities here, yes.

Nicely done! This sounds like a pretty awesome rig you're running. What are you using for chorus?
@@GoodwoodAudio Intellifex. Replifex is on the way, so I haven't tried the chorus in it yet.
@@rogertaylor6 nice!
I did not read all the other comments to see if this already came up, but why do you use the therm "phase" when you mean polarity?

It applies to the bass interfacer, right?

@@GoodwoodAudio Perfect!
What’s a audio transformer? Ahhhh
yes, an example please. what products do you have? Lehle may have a good product for this.
I rather run a di box out of my combo Into my 1990's stereo rig .. and if its a small venue , i just bring my little 15" speaker combo lol
Sounds great to me!
