I have 2 Boss pedals in my rack they are both powered by a Boss power supply. When I power on my rack the Boss pedals are in bypass mode and I have to push the pedal on each time. Is there a way to wire these things so that the default power up is ON.

This is a long shot but you could try taping them down, or sticking something to depress the switch under the cover like a small block of wood or something.

Well, if you really want to do that, you can open up the pedals and if there are 2 wires going to the switch, you can jumper them together, or if they go to a trace on the board, you can solder a jumper between the two spots on the board. Just use heavy enough wire for the job.
So. If you throw a cat out of a car window, is it considered "kitty litter"?
