I'm having a huge love/hate relationship with my Vox Cooltron Snake Charmer compressor this week. I'm trying to find the most beneficial place to put it in my pedal chain. I just wanted to strike up a little poll to see if more people place their compression pedal:
A - Beginning of the pedal chain, before any overdriven effects.
B - After the overdrive.
C - Effects Loop (pedal or rackmount).
D - "I don't use compression...I'm more controlled than a vegetarian in front of the bacon at a breakfast buffet."
What I think I would like to do for myself is get rid of the Vox compressor and run a little MXR Dynacomp in the beginning of my pedal Chain (A) and find a decent rackmount compressor/limiter and place it in the effects loop off of the pedal board (C).
I've been using Line6 PODs for too long and I don't think I'm too good at this whole "stompbox" thing...
