Topic: A little trick I just learned

Right...I have a blackheart little giant. Due to having to use low volume in the house I wasn't able to get it to overdrive at all!
I had moved my marshall into my room and thought I'd run my DD3 into the marshall and the output of it to the blackheart, so I got a distorted first note and then clean repeats.

Heres the trick I learned. Use the marshalls preamp to get the overdriven repeats. I ran the input and direct out into the marshalls fxloop, then the output ran to the blackheart. This meant that the preamp of the marshall was being used to overdrive the blackheart...it sounds damn good too!
Give it a shot if you have a DD3 and a couple of amps big_smile

Re: A little trick I just learned

This is what I used to do with my Fender Hotrod Deluxe I plugged the direct out from my Jubilee into the input of the FHD on clean channel with reverb which gave me fender stye tone with jubilee pre amp distortion , along with the jubilee head feeding a 2x12 with delay in the loop this worked really well for me and when I switched to clean channel it was good sounding too .
