how do you guy set it up in a unit without a effects loop?

I use a Lexicon MPXG2.

Guitar -> Guitar input of the Lexicon MPXG2 -> Preamp out of the MPXG2 -> Input of the M4 -> Output of the M4 -> Preamp return of the MPXG2 -> Output of the MPXG2 -> Power amp.

By doing this, I can run certain effects before the M4 (like phasers, octafuzz, etc), and certain effects after the preamp (like noise suppressor, reverb, and delays). It's an incredible setup. I love it. I've not seen another effect processor like it. I don't need an effects loop w/ the M4 because the out of the M4 is basically where I'd put my effects if it were a regular amp w/ a series effects loop. The MPXG2 allows you to do "parallel mixing" of effects anyways, so I have the best of both worlds. If I want series...I can do that...if I want parallel...I can mix effects into my "dry signal" giving me the best of both worlds.

Works perfect for me!

I use the Gsystem, guitar into RM4, RM4 preloop out, into G-system, Gsystem out L/R into stereo power amp..

I go straight into a TC 2290. I usually have a TC 1128 in 2290 Loop one..

That;s about it.

G system here

Guitar into the G.

Drive pedals in loops 1-3 on the G

M4 in the insert loop of the G

effects from the G

G stereo outs to mesa poweramp

Sounds great, but you do need to set up the levels on the G right.

i use a GCX and ground control pro. guitar into gcx -pedals that go in front of the amp-M4 between loops-gcx Line delay and reverb effects into amp.

I like both the G Force and Eclipse.

I go:

M4 into System Mix + and run my effects into the plus with the outputs feeding a VHT 2/50.
