I am jealous of your toys, good sir.

fDeck HPF-3 and Empress Accountant are always-on. Technically my JDI is always-on, but being a passive device it might be more apt to say that it's always-off.... always-there?

My One Control Mosquite Blender w/BJF Buffer is technically always-on as the buffer is at the front of my signal chain. The loop is switched in and out, but the buffer is always there, so I'm counting it.

I have my tuner on always with a line through/bypass so it doesn't mute the sound. Then after that I have a hand made latching kill switch. It means that if for whatever reason I go out of tune during a song I can sort of make up for it by switching up a fret if needs be.

The answers are less dynamic than you'd hoped?:|

Not less dynamic, just more consistent.

So, I was wondering. Do you guys have a pedal that you can't possibly live without? Your "always-on" pedal?

EBS Valvedrive is always on (modern mode, some eq, tiny bit of gain). Taurus Abigar is on 80% of the time - moderate overdrive that can be controlled by playing softer/harder.

I could live without the EBS, I could not live without the Abigar.

JHS Lime Aid Compressor. That one is always on.

Pretty high ratio of compressor users for sure! The top picks appear...limited...though

Can we *limit ourselves to like just 3 puns per page? Or is that too much of an *attack on your freedoms? I understand they can sometimes *release the tension in a discussion such as this.

modded BBE opto stomp. I set it up to run on 18V and added a 36dB/octave active high pass filter with the cutoff set at 30Hz.

Is it a big improvement I just got one I like it a lot as it is I don't likely need to modify it is my always on pedal along with a very subtle reverb and recently acquired boss lmb3 bass limiter but as soon as I fix up my Joyo American Sound and add Bass Muff Pi I reckon one or the other will always be on

MXR M80 is always on, even if I'm not using the distortion.
ISP Decimator never gets turned off, but mostly cause I'm too lazy to turn it off when I'm not using any distortion.

It took me a minute, but I see what you did there.
