Hello everyone,

I have recently noticed that ALL my true bypass pedals (my DIY creations and the ones I have bought) are making a POP noise when I turn them on/off. The POP is louder as I increase the Volume of my amp (5 Watts Handwired).
Does anyone would know what the problem could be?

Thanks

Long discussed topic. Check links at the end of the page, as a start

Thanks Duckman,

I have tried a few pedals with my friends amp (Rockbox, Kalamazoo, OCD and 2 DIY : autowah and TS9) and there was no POP. I have tried again with my amp and with all the pedals there were no pop when the volume of the amp was low. From 12 o'clock a slight pop and at full blast a big POP. Would the problem come from my amp and not the pedals?
All the pedals have blue LEDs. Do bright blue LED are more likely to POP than other LED colours?

If anyone knows...

Thanks for your time guys.
