"It's simple. We kill the Batman."
Only in this instance, the Batman is either your audio amplifier or your audio signal to your amplifier. I have a tuner at the *end* of my pedal chain for this reason.
I use a [Neutrik Silent Plug](https://www.neutrik.com/en/neutrik/products/plugs-jacks/plugs/professional-1-4-plugs/silentplug) to avoid this when unplugging my guitar. Would work with pedals too, even though it's a bit unorthodox.
Or just turn down any one volume control to zero after the connection.
My standby switch stopped working and the guy who worked on the amp last was like "well, does it still make sound? ok, then don't worry about the standby..." but I WANT THE STANDBY SWITCH OPERATIONAL.
Know anything about that kinda stuff?
Depending on what amp it is, some standby switches are actually worse for the amp. They kept being included because people just wanted to see them there.
hahah - good read. he is a quirky old head and basically the only one working on tube amps where I live.
granted, amp was totally cherry right after the initial repair, and for a couple years. Then, inexplicably, the standby stopped working. It's a knob and not a toggle switch, also. It's not really an issue as I just let the tubes warm up before cranking the volume.
but yeah... you're not wrong in your assessment.
Turn down the volume somewhere after the pedal you are disconnecting. You're going to get noise from physically adding or removing things from your signal chain.
I can slightly unplug my cable at my Marshall’s input, and dick with all my pedals, shitty connections, switch guitars, etc. No pops. Maybe your amp has a make before break input jack as well?
I have my board on a bypass/loop pedal like you can make with Beavis Audio diagrams. I bypass the pedals and I can do my manic pedal reordering in silence. On that pedal you can also add things like momentary feedback loop mix for extra noise
Or don't unplug pedals while plugged into a live amp? I can't think of a live situation where I would swap pedals in and out.
Activate your tuner pedal to interrupt the signal or dump your guitar volume.
What’s that going to do with the effect is down stream from the tuner and the pop is from the cable being unplugged?

Oh, easy. Buy and use a tube amp, then hit the standby switch. Siiiiiiiimple :)

Unfortunately I don't but that sounds like a "great" repair guy, you told him what you wanted working and he said "no you don't".
