When you have a bunch of pedals, from many different manufacturers, with different inputs and outputs, it's a real art to get them all working together with the the best signal flow to produce the myriad different tones you need. This course, by pro guitarist Gregg Fine, explains all the sonic and practical possibilities while offering great solutions to make sure you get the sounds you're looking for.
Gregg first explains effect chains, pedalboard hardware and layout theory. He then tackles the complexities of cabling, power supplies, bypass options and FX loops. From there he dives into explaining all the various FX pedals and how they can work together, in the proper order, to achieve the best possible results.
When you complete this course you're going to see your pedal collection in a whole new light. And with new-found enthusiasm, you'll dig down deep into your pedal collection to create a guitar rig masterpiece! So sit back and learn from the pedalboard master, Gregg Fine.
I actually completed this course - and Guitar Production 201 - to get a better understanding of using Logic's Pedalboard. It's great and has helped me a lot in gaining a better understanding of how to use Pedalboard in conjunction with Amp Designer. I love all of Gregg's courses, and this was no exception.

This is a lengthy course, but very in depth as to pedals, their use, effects, certain problems that can arise from improper use, and how to correct for them. The author goes into specif details starting from the guitar output, through the signal chain, to the final output at your amplifier. Along the way, auditory examples are given to illustrate each point. For all the guitarists out there, this is a great tutorial, especially if you have a lot of stomp-boxes!

I like the way he made it simple but not for simpletons. I do have quite a bit of knowledge on this subject but still learned something and enjoyed the course
