Line level effects loops?

Post by Sockgazer »

I'm thinking of giving an SCXD and there seems to be a simple mod designed to give it an effects loop. However, since it's a simple mod it'd just be a preamp out <-> poweramp in with no fancy buffering or anything likethat.

Does line level play havoc with some effects? I had one or two that were meant to not work quite right, but seemed to be okay. What effects in particular would be sensitive to the bigger input?
