I'm not keen on havin the sound of my distortion pedal being turned off "delayed" if you know what I mean, though I want my "delays" to be affected by my phaser/flanger.
You do run the risk of your delay tails being clean if they're not loud enough to pass the threshold of the overdrive unit. Maybe in your set-up this doesn't happen, maybe you like it that way, but at the end of the day get an overdrive that doesn't produce noise when you switch it is the best advice, then you can have the choice of both ways.
