Pedals that stack with the Positive Grid Spark 40W Modeling Practice Amp

pushes an already-dirty tonePushes an already-dirty tone harder and tightens it up. (high gain → mid-forward)

The Screamer's mid-hump pushes the Spark 40W's driven models harder, the same way it would a real tube amp.

sits in the right chain slotPlaced for where it does its job cleanly in the chain, not for a tonal interaction with the anchor. (high gain → shimmer)

The Electric Mistress's shimmering flange follows the Spark's raw, driven practice-amp gain for added texture.

shapes the dynamic responseShapes how the tone responds to picking dynamics rather than its frequency or gain.

The Cory Wong's punchy optical compression evens dynamics before the Spark's raw, driven practice-amp gain.

sits in the right chain slotPlaced for where it does its job cleanly in the chain, not for a tonal interaction with the anchor. (high gain → lush)

The Moby Dick's massive, lush ambient reverb belongs in the Spark's loop, clear of the amp's own raw gain. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)

Sits in the amp's effects loop

sits in the right chain slotPlaced for where it does its job cleanly in the chain, not for a tonal interaction with the anchor. (high gain → modulated)

Keep Positive Grid Spark 40W Modeling Practice Amp's high gain voice out front: Hungry Robot The Borderland goes in Positive Grid Spark 40W Modeling Practice Amp's effects loop so its modulated voice doesn't muddy it — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)
