When you turn it up higher, it will amplify any noise that is already there, making it more apparent.

To test for noise, you have to set the pedal so that it's at the same volume when it's on as it is when it's off-that is, at unity gain. 'First, test with batteries to see if the noise is from the power supply,' says AnalogMike, 'and also disconnect all other pedals when testing one pedal for noise. If the sounds you seek aren't always available in true-bypass designs, there are still steps you can take to combat noise and improve sound quality. The Cusack Pedal Board Tamer (reviewed November 2010) offers nine effects loops-three of which may be operated in stereo-and has two guitar inputs that can be switched between truebypass and buffered, a mutable tuner output, three tap-tempo outputs, a Mech Mode mechanical looping mode, a Preset Mode with nine programmable presets, and an All Off switch. There are very few people I've ever met who are so satisfied with their pedal setup that they will leave it alone for more than six months.' I recommend Dual Lock only when someone knows exactly what pedals they want and the order they want them in-and they don't plan on changing them for a long time. A lot of folks I've seen over the years have chosen to use Dual Lock and later regretted the decision when it came time to reconfigure their board or sell a pedal. The adhesives used on most Velcro products are usually not as permanent and, therefore, are easier to remove with minimal residue or damage to a pedal. 'While Dual Lock and other materials like it tend to hold pedals in place stronger, the ease of use, ease of removal and wide availability of Velcro has made it the preferred method.

I've tried lots of materials and different grades of almost every type of Velcro and Dual Lock adhesive-based methods out there-and some other space-aged things that ultimately led me full circle back to the original hook and loop.' 'For years, I have searched for the new holy grail of pedal attachment. 'That's a question that I get and wrestle with almost daily,' says Pedaltrain's John Chandler. If you rely on public transportation to transport your whole rig, then a gigbag is the more practical option. However, keep in mind that a large board loaded with pedals can rival an amp's weight once you factor in the case itself. A hardshell case virtually guarantees pedal safety, and it's the only real option if you're, flying to a gig and need to check your pedalboard as baggage. Many pedalboards, including most of those discussed here, come with an option for a gigbag or hardshell case.
