►► A Beginner's Guide To Ambient Guitar: Free Mini-Course 🎁 → https://www.ambientguitaracademy.com/ambient-beginners-course One of the questions I get the most on my channel is: ''Where Do I Place The Volume Pedal In The Chain?''. It's a great question to ask. Where you place the volume pedal can alter not only the sound, but the behavior of your other effects & pedals. I was baffled to find that most videos on the topic were 15 or even 18+ minutes long on YouTube to explain such an easy and straightforward topic. So in only 5 minutes, I'll explain and let you hear the differences between all the possible spots for your volume pedal in the chain (first, last, before or after distortion, before or after modulation, etc). You will know exactly where you want to put yours! __________ ► Full list of the pedals and gear I use to make music (these Sweetwater affiliate links support my work at no extra cost to you.
