chorus, delay and reverb processors) require that the signal flow out of the send jack on the amplifier, through the unit where it is split into a dry (unaltered) signal and a wet (processed) signal. On the processing unit, you will use the mixed signal output to return the signals (both wet and dry) to the return jack on the amplifier. The ratio between the wet signal and the dry signal is heard as the amount of effects added back to the original signal, which is controlled by the mix knob (als
