Mooer Pedal Connector Z

these Mooer plugs look cool and feel sturdy, but the problem is with the whole concept of rigid plugs. connect two pedals (possibly of the same size and with a similar jack layout) and everything's fine. connect a third, and you'll already lose stability, causing strain to the jacks everytime you 'll use any of the footswitches. the problem is that pedal jacks are never mounted in a perfectly straight line. so, forget connecting more than 2 pedals at a time (the only exception is with Mooer pedals in their dedicated Mooer pedal case, but even so i wouldn't plug 4 of them in an uninterrupted line!) and you won't have bad surprises.

It can be very handy, saves space, but when using it in a busy pedal board - please now take a birds eye view of your board - you need to consider that if you want to remove a pedal this is attached to, you cant just pry it upwards, you will need to move it left/right because this thing will hold it in place attached to it's left or right to the next neighbouring pedal.

I found my Mooer Z Connector over a short time just started to loose reliability, and I got to a point where I was loosing signal on my board and totally freaking out. Was it a pedal, my guitar, the cables, the amp? Traced it down to this.
