  • Pedal question

    Alright guys....

    I jumped the gun the other day trying to play through my tube amp setup and forgot to plug in my pedal daisychain power supply before turning on the rig. Should I be worried about rig/pedal damage?😕 Serious question.... I have OCD and its been bothering me.

    No.

    If you have an amp's volume already blasted and then connect/disconnect/power-up something that is in the active signal chain you can get a loud pop that could possibly have the potential (lol) to damage something (most likely a speaker)

      Hah, oh god..... I know this kind of pain.... I used to spend $$ on New Old Stock Mullards, Sylvania and GE tubes etc and every time I'd leave the studio and forget to power down the amp, I'd be losing my **** at home worried about the unnecessary heat wear like a weirdo.

      One time I went out of town for months, came back and my amp had been left on the whole time...... I'll never recover.

        To reiterate what Dave said, no, it didn't hurt anything.
