which pedals are buffered and true bypass?

Just thought id start a thread about which pedals are buffered and true bypass, it might sound bizzare but as alot of pedals I have bought are second hand so you never get a manual lol. Or has any bass threads covered this? I'm gonna list some pedals I have and if I get enough posts ill collect all pedal list to make this thread as complete as possible-)

Here is mine

Ampeg sub blaster(octave) --true bypass
Digitech whammy4 ?
Dod fx25b envelope filter ?
DHA twin valve overdrive ---true bypass
Boss chorus( brown coloured one) ---buffered
Boss flanger(brown coloured one) ---buffered
Akai headrush(delay) ---?
Maxon bass EQ --- ?
Moogerfooger bass murf105b ---true bypass?

Basically I am also looking at putting a good buffered pedal first in my effects chain too if anyone could recomend-)

But ill check back on the thread and see how pedals come up and create a list if anyone thinks it might be a worthwile job-)

Whammy is not
DOD is not
Maxon I doubt it because TB is a buzz word for some.
Akai I doubt it on this one also.

I would put the pedals in the order that they work best for the sounds you're going for. I hit my first buffered pedal 2.

If you run an active bass the point is mute because it's already buffered.

+1 about active basses not needing any of this.

does that maxon bass EQ stay on? if so, put it first, it's now your buffer.
