I was wondering if putting a boost pedal in the FX loop would cause any damage to the amp, I have an MIV. I'm in the process of building a pedal board for my MIV. I have a boost, but if it might cause any problems I won't put it on.

I have both the 2 and 4 button pedals, a low Z volume pedal and a wah to put on the board. I want to put a patch bay on the board and use a snake to hook it up to the amp. Right now the only thing going through the FX loop is the volume pedal.

You're not gonna damage the amp by adding a boost pedal.

What is a "boost pedal"? I'm using a Zoom DSP unit that has a "Booster" on it, the same thing???

I'm not sure about yours, but I made a few NPN boost pedals and it just kicks up the volume. I use it for soloing.
