Well, the thing is that the church that is hiring me says they have
one.. and want to use it. I've never used one before. At the very least
I could plug it in and turn it down to zero or bypass or something. But
due to their request, it has to "look" like I'm using it even though it
doesn't make any sense. Should I just put it in a insert on one of the
instruments?


How about send the mains to it, but not returning it to anything :-)
That way, the light will light up, but to no effect...


Obviously others have better advice than I gave above. Just try it inserted
on the mains and slowly increase the effect until you are either happy with
it or not. Use your own ears to guide you.
