i pretty much exclusively use the attack decay running into my hm-2w to get this nice melted distorted shoegaze tone. i also use a big muff and like to switch between the hm-2 and the muff but i only use the attack decay with the hm-2.

so my question is if i put the hm-2 into the fx loop of the attack decay does that

a) mute the rest of my board ie: if the muff is on and i activate the attack decay will i only be getting the attack decay signal and the hm-2? or does it still pass signal through the rest of my board?

b) swap the order of the attack decay and hm-2? i usually use the attack decay first into the hm-2 so i dont want the hm-2 to be in front of the effect.

im sorry for the dumb ass questions, i tried reading the manual and just got confused lmao i’ve literally never messed around with fx loops before. thanks in advance for any and all help!
