Do you use TB loops to keep your signal intact?

As a former guitarist, I used to work very hard to maintain my high end signal across a pedalboard. It's not too hard to do, but you have to sometimes throw certain effects into tb loopers.

I'm getting a Zoom B2 and I want to keep it on my board. Do you think I could benefit from putting it into a tb looper? Is it typical for bassists to try to maintain their signal frequencies when using pedalboards?

Certainly, if you have a problem pedal that you love, that's an easy solution.

Yeah, it has to always be on a case-by-case basis, because there is a wide spectrum of quality of bypass switching in the many thousands of different pedals in the world. If I love an effect too much to ditch it, and it has a poor bypass, then certainly I put it in a TB loop. But the majority of the time bypass quality isn't even an issue until you have several pedals in the chain. Of course "majority" doesn't = "100%", there certainly are some pedals out there which have flat-out crappy bypass.

I haven't used the Zoom specifically, so I can't give an opinion of its bypass.
