→Cab Replacement
=== Cab Replacement ===
If you intend on using a real amp but want to use a modeler for cab/mic simulation, things can get a little tricky. The amp needs to have an effects loop, and you need to run the send from that to your modeler. Some modelers split the amp and cab/mic emulation into separate blocks - then you can just disable or omit the amp block and use the cab/mic block. Others incorporate them into a single block. It may still be possible to select "no amp" or equivalent from the list of amp models, so you are just using the cab/mic sim. But if that's not available, the best you can do is select the cleanest possible amp model from those provided.
The modeler can provide pre-amp effects by routing the guitar directly to the modeler then using its effects loop to send out to the amp and have the amp's effects loop send output into the modeler's effects loop return. Post effects simply need to be placed behind the modeler's fx loop placement.
