Hey I just had a thought the other day about possibly creating a preamp through the HX EFFECTS & am wondering if anyone else has tried this?.. 
 
	 
 
	OD/DS Pedal ---> EQ Pedal ---> IR Cabinet Sim
 
	 
 
	The idea is the the OD/DS gives u the preamp while the EQ pedal helps you shape the sound a bit more since the first pedal is limited and than add an IR cab to simulate the desired cabinet.
