Benefits of a TB Looper where all of the pedals in it are TB themselves?
Alright, here's a question:
Let's say you've got several TB pedals before the amp input. What is the benefit of a TB strip in this situation? Basically, here would be the chain: Fulltone Wah Mission Expression Pedal Turbo Tuner Envelope Filter Micro Pog Screwdriver BB Preamp Screaming Panda RHBMP Fuzz Clone ISP Decimator (Not TB, but at the end of the chain). I would probably run this outside of the strip regardless. That's quite a chain from guitar to amp input, even for mostly TB. What are the pros/cons of using a TB strip here (besides convenience). Is it a necessity, will I get more "tone" into the amp? Thanks!

absolutely LOVE my strip......The good thing about TB pedals in a tb strip is that you dontg need power supplies for them...you have ten pedals, and if you put in a true bypass strip and used a voodoo labs power supply then you would be one 9v power supply short for powering your strip...helps the tonesuck a bunch too

Just convenience. Also you can put sets of pedals in loops to turn them on with one button. Al from moe. (welcome back after a 4am 6 hour set at Bonnaroo!!)

It's definitely worth it to take pedals out of your signal chain when you're not using them, even if they are true-bypass. I have a Loopmaster Clean/Dirty switcher that i use to toggle between my compressor (for clean sounds) and a loop that has my Fulldrive and various fuzz pedals. If I shut the comp off and select that loop, my signal is much brighter/stronger/louder going to the amp, than if I bypass all the pedals (all of of which are TB) in my "dirty" loop. I'm actually planning on getting a new Loopmaster that will have three loops, so i won't have to run my Fulldrive in a loop with the fuzzes.

mike, just curious, but why is it not one long strip? besides the far left tuner switch...also, not sure if you know this as its not on topic, but why is his volume on all his drives maxed out? do know you if hes turning his amps down and cranking his pedals for his sound? looks nice

I bet it's tough to use that fuzz probe on the back of the board.

I agree! Also, both the Clyde and the Replica (if he uses the tap tempo) seems af if they would be better of as close to your feet as possible. That's at least how I want it.
