I'm a P&W player, used to play with an amp and pedalboard but decided to start using my digital setup instead. Waaaay easier in the settings I play in.
So, here is my question. How are you all setting up your MFX units? I use an RP1000, 1/4" out to my new EV EXL112P powered speaker (this was a big step up from my previous unit) and XLR out to the mixer for FOH.
Sometimes I wish I had a bit more EQ control than the RP1000 gives me, so I have been contemplating putting an EQ pedal into the stomp loop and using that to help configure my sound into the EV, and the mixer channel EQ for FOH.
Mostly I want the EQ to help tune what I hear in the powered monitor (lows and highs), although if the EQ pedal is in the stomp loop, it will also affect the XLR out to the mixer. Would I be better putting the EQ pedal between the 1/4" out on the MFX and the speaker - thereby it only affects the powered speaker? Leave the XLR outs alone?
I guess I am just looking for some suggestions on how others do it to allow fine tuning and flexibility.
Thanks.
