    I saw Steve Vai at a masterclass in Sydney in 2011 and we had a good view of his pedalboard. It was volume, wah (morley), the Jemini drive and a Boss chorus and 2 Boss delays feeding into 2 Lecacy amps. Sounded like Steve Vai all right. There is a video from a few years ago called "perfect Pedal Placemen" where Vai shows this exact setup.

    So the chorus splits to 2 delays then I go stereo back into my stereo imputs of the reverb then stereo out to looper or amps/front of house etc etc. Hope this helps. You could also run 2 reverbs or just one side? 🤘🧟‍♂️🤘

    @@PaulGlover Sure thing man. I've been battling with my sound for years. I can get the sound I want, but also get a lot of noise with it. Not those clean heavily driven notes like Mr. Vai or Satch. And I use a Boss GT-10 and a Boss Gt-001 for the studio. I think if I had a UV777 it would solve that problem. Just kidding, but it would make me very very happy.
