Peter, hello. I just purchased a Herbert and a rear-loaded 4x12 cabinet to complete the picture. It appears to be a very good purchase, as there's quite a reputation it lives up to.

Anyhow, I usually rig my guitar up through an old Roland Chorus/Echo. Not sure if you're familiar with them but, the Roland Chorus/Echo is a chorus, echo, and reverb unit that runs off a circulating tape. Question I have regarding this is: to get the best effect from the Herbert, should the Roland Chorus/Echo be run through one of the loops, or would it be best to run my guitar into the Chorus/Echo, then plug the Chorus/Echo's output into the input of the Herbert?

Also, I'm using Channel 3 mostly and it's very noisy when I turn up the gain, is there any way to eliminate the noise and keep the hotness of the gain effect intact?

Thanks for your Time
 
I'd put the chorus in the switchable loop. Get yourself an ISP Decimator pedal or the ISP Pro Rack G to control the noise. The Pro Rack G will also kill the hum since it is a 2 channel noise gate. My Herbert had a loud hum before the Pro Rack G, now it is dead silent even when the gain is cranked up.
 
Yes, You get best results in the serial and switchable loop.
