Putting the delay before the overdrive pedal is a very unusual choice....

It is an unusual setup.
It sounds great though. There is no tone loss or anything.

There aren't any "rules" for setting up a pedalboard...its just whatever sounds the best.

Yes, delay before distortion is a strange concept, but in my case it sounds great.

There really shouldn't be tone loss no matter how you set your pedals up.

The fact that you rearranged your pedals and the problem went away makes me think that one of your cables is failing.

Nope...I'm still using all of the same cables and it sounds so much quieter.

What Steve means is, you might have moved a noisy cable later in the chain, so that the noise from that particular cable isn't amplified by as many gain stages anymore.

This, or that he has an intermittent cable and by getting moved something fell into the right spot to conduct a clean signal.
