You could totally be right. Sad thing is... I have to wait until the next time our band practices to find out (Sunday).

I do use a footswitch, and this is my first big amp with a footswitch. I didn't even know that you had to even hit the footswitch to activate the effects loop.

Another interesting thing, is that I don't hear a difference with the BBE Stomp, but my ISP Decimator Pro Rack G works as is through the effects loop. Would the ISP Decimator not work if my effects loop wasn't activated through the footswitch?

Thanks for the response man!
