And what about delay trails?

Post by Harry_Manback »

You know, when the repeats continue to spilover when you kick off your awesome Disaster Transport Jr? Just an ignorant question (I know nothing about pedals or electronics). How come we can't have trails?

It's a true bypass thing. Can't have it all like Monta Ellis

Okay let me see if I can explain this but I'm an idiot so I'm not sure if I'll do it correctly:

EQD pedals are true bypass, so when you shut it off it truly bypasses the circuit completely (to avoid suckin tones off) but trails require that the circuit not be true bypass because the signal still needs to pass through a buffered/false-bypass (nailed it) and so the circuit isn't cut off from the rest of your chain.

Yep. I regret selling my Ghost Disaster since it essentially did trails with the master on/off switch. You may want to try and track one down.
