I have my board set up with Big Sky in 9 and Timeline in 10. I was looking at options for running direct into a PA for small gigs. I have a Line 6 POD, which works OK, then I read that the Big Sky has a cabinet simulator, which I had not realized. With this, they recommend running the Reverb at the end of your chain. I was all set to switch the order, and began to wonder why I ran it this way in the first place, as most people recommend reverb after delay anyway (and I would have likely researched this when I set up the board), then I realized I have them in parallel.
So the question, I guess, is this: any reason to change what I have? Is running the Reverb/Delay in parallel an issue at all if I want to use the cab simulation on the Big Sky? If I am thinking correctly, the only other possible set-up would be to run the Big Sky series in 9, and the Timeline parallel, because you would accomplish nothing by moving the Big Sky to 10 (unless you were running both the Big Sky and the Timeline in series) because order of the 9/10 effects is essentially irrelevant if any one of the effects is parallel, right?
