I do that. Now. But that's not good enough for me. I didn't buy a high end, cutting edge pedal with true bypass relays so I can ignor them and run my signal through AD/DA converters 100% of the time. Granted, they are very transparent converters. Still, put a signal through the best converters enough times successively and you will hear degradation. Considering the fact that I'm going to buy a ModFactor soon, that'll be two sets of unnecessary AD/DA conversion when the effects are off. Yes, I'm a purist. That's why I buy Eventide instead of Digitech or Boss. So naturally I expect a little more.
