What it means is that the dry signal always goes through, and you mix in as much as you want of the wet, using the FX knob on the amp.

But it means you cant get an all wet signal, and it is stated that keeping the pure direct signal path for the dry is the advantage of this.

To use the loop effectively, you need relatively high levels on your effects units, and to maximise the amount of effect on the box, eg., you might turn the delay level up to max, instead of using 30-50% as you normally would.

I find it works OK, but I dont use the loop for much other than EQ
