If it's standalone it must be  a separate  device, outside of the effect 
to 
be improved.
Therefore any signal must still be going through the input and output 
circuitry of the effect. 
So you can't improve the sound unless the original problem was caused by 
the 
interaction of the effect and whatever was before, and/or after, in the 
signal chain.
In which case the circuits in the signal chain are interacting, which has 
to 
be down to impedance.
So you use the 'standalone' device as a buffer to stop the interaction. 
This 
would have it's impedance designed to make an ideal match. 

makes sense to me

........could still be wrong though:-)
