When guitar players play live and say they have a really good amp like a Mesa and a really good reverb unit what is the typical signal chain?
Is it situation:
1) the amp is miked and sent into the mixing desk and then the mic'd signal is sent out to the reverb unit.
OR
2) the reverb unit is hooked up via the FX loop of the amp and so the reverbed sound comes out of the amp's speaker?
OR
3) something else.
I know this is a recording forum but I think the principals apply to recording too.
