Effects order?

waynetravis · 04-12-2008, 02:34 PM

What's the common order of effects Edge uses on his songs?
I have a Boss multi-effects pedal, and the order can be changed for example:

guitar > Delay > wah > overdrive > amp

Does Edge's delay go into his overdrive, or vice versa?

Stuff like that, ta!

Usually delay comes last, just before reverb. Although if it works for you, keep doing it.

Edge's delay also seems to come last, although the Amnesta guy claims Edge runs a 20ms short delay in front to thicken up his sound. But I don't hink anyone knows for sure what order he uses. Edge's signal routing seems to be an even greater mystery as his effects and their settings.

There is a great article about effects and effects orders etc in this months Guitar Player magazine. Check it out.

Great bits from Pete Cornish, who makes effects racks/boards for David Gilmour, Porl Thompson and Jimmy Page, to name a few.
