There are a number of different ways to hook up the processor.
The recommended method of connection is through the effects loop /
insert jack of your amplifier. Also acceptable, but not preferred, is the
plug-it-right-into-the-input-jack method. In any case, the processor
should be the LAST component before the connection is made to the
amplifier.
Some of the possible connections are shown below and on the
facing page. When using the INSERT jack of the processor, try to find
out if your amplifier's INSERT/EFFECTS LOOP jack is "standard"
(non-inverted) or "inverted". If in doubt, try connecting the cable to the
processor's INSERT
(STANDARD)

jack.
