I use bypass all the time:
1. To see if the effect is actually improving the sound
2. I’ll have 5 different fx on a track and bypass/enable sets of them to see what actually works well and what does not
3. When I come back to a tune and I don’t remember what each sound actually does.
I sometimes even automate those switches (I haven’t done that in podium yet though) because I’d like some fx only to present in certain parts of a tune.
But my workflow might not be so widespread ofcourse
