- Well, I was wondering the same thing a couple of months ago. So I went
- down to the nearest music store with those big racks of effects pedals. I
- played through all of them and got an idea of what eack of them sound like
- and what the differences are. Some of the effects are kind of difficult
- to explain, so I suggest that you do the same thing. You definitely get a
- good understanding of the differences b/w effects.
