I've been thinking about buying a lone 1/4" plug to stick into one of the outputs of one of my stereo effects, just to see what kind of new effect it will cause.  Has anyone else tried this?

I'd assume that the signal would disappear or phase away when the pedal tries to output signal to the dead-end plug, but would come back for the plug that sends the signal down the rest of the signal chain.  Will this likely sound like crap, or could it create some useful sounds here and there?

Thanks!

They're mostly DigiTech X-Series.  I thought about doing this with a stereo phaser or flanger.  I guess I'll have to buy a plug and experiment...

I haven't found a plug yet.  I need to find a good deal on one of the right-angle plugs for the Cable Station line or something.

I've also been too tired/lazy to do it as well.  I've mostly just been playing acoustic lately...
