Yes, one FX loop can be connected to another FX loop on an amplifier, however this is not a popular configuration.

## [color=#21855c]Connection [/color]

Typically, you would connect one FX loop’s Send to another FX loop’s Return.

## [color=#21855c]Purpose [/color]

This configuration can be used to mix effects from two distinct amplifiers or to build a more sophisticated signal chain.

## [color=#21855c]Consideration [/color]

- Signal levels must be adjusted to prevent undesired noise or distortion.
- Be aware of any potential ground loop issues.
- The sequence of effects is determined by the FX loop you choose as the “primary” one.

## [color=#21855c]Alternatives [/color]

Instead of joining FX loops, many musicians prefer to use a single FX loop and manage their effects chain with the dedicated effects switcher (or) looper pedal.
