Stripped my board down to the essentials for town centre gig, thinking I could use the local metro service - only for the metro to be stopped due to issues with the gateshead flyover! 🤦‍♂️ Here's the results anyways - ultrawave, space heater and rattler mkII removed. Dynassor removed and in the FS section. All missed, but loving the more compact set up. I'll sit the mvave chocolate midi controller to the side of the board. Old set up Smaller set up Eventually I'll get a new psu, tuner and preamp for the big board and move the important stuff (C4 and HX one) between the two. I have a Celebrity pedals taylor shift inbound too, so that may go on 1 board and the octabvre on the other...

Ideal world mate absolutely - but two tone hammers, SA C4s HX Ones and 3 leaf Octabvres just isn't financially viable 😬

Thanks for the shout, Ped... good idea but unfortunately my HX one, Source Audio C4 and 3 Leaf Octabvre mini don't do batteries - I've actually ordered the Joyo Power supply 5 rechargeable PSU and a Pedaltrain nano+ rip off from Amazon to negate this. Still interested in peoples experiences though! I'd love to double up on each pedal and leave all in situe - but bit of a big spend for a once a month board...

Hidey Ho! A bit of mundane backstory... I have a gig in Newcastle City Centre on Saturday night, and with various roadworks etc driving into Town is horrendous. This has lead me to consider my travel options which have been hindered by the size and weight of my pedalboard. It's not HUGE per se, but it's bigger than I'd like to lug on local transport and we tend to do this gig around once a month or so. Looking at the board - I have essential pedals, and pedals that are embellishments that make me smile. I plan to keep them, and keep my large board; but I'm thinking of buying a second smaller board and moving pedals and PSU between the two depending on circumstance. Does anyone do this? Have you found any issues arise from the frequent moving about? I'm particularly concerned about the PSU - I can justify a £40 nano board, but not a new PSU to go with it... Any advice and info is appreciated as always!

That looks great... and more board friendly than the original! Have you had the original for sound comparisons?

I now have a Taylor Shift incoming... the basic non filter version. I'll of the demoes ive heard suggest this has all of the character of an oc2 but without the volume drop associated with the - 2oct dial. Excited to see how it compares to my octabvre!

I'm just using the ultrawave for one patch so luckily didn't need to delve into that! The MVave is great though, it doesn't just go up and down either - it actually recalls patches numerically in banks of 4, so I can switch from. 1-4 etc etc all the way up. Best £30 I've ever spent!

Hopefully the last update for a while! I've realised (probably like most) that I buy pedals through pure GAS and not requirement (hence the Jam pedal stuff) and after spending more time looking fora new fuzz for a 2 minute song in our set I've decided to reinstate the ultrawave instead... Wasn't thrilled with the fuzzed on tap on the HX One; while I love it's simplicity, the drives and fuzzed have a real digital flatness to me and really could use with some form of clean blend (much like the ms60B does). My tap tempo has stopped working with the C4 for some reason so that needs be addressed, and I struggle with back row tap dancing so hoping moving the mvave to the back doesn't cause an issue!

DemonFX? 😂

https://www.andertons.co.uk/behringer-bass-brassmaster-fuzz/?search_query=Brassmaster Preorder available - can't see them getting a shipment on NYE, but £59!

Will be buying one of these as soon as they come out most likely! 🫨

Hidy Ho Neighbourinos! Reeeally interested in the Celebrity Pedals Taylor Shift OC2 clones, seen plenty of them on here which has piqued my interest and after sending a few messages to their insta (really friendly and helpful, by the way!) I'm almost sold as a change of pace to my Octabvre mini.... Anyone have one and care to share their experience and thoughts? How do they compare to other OC2 clones? Cheers in advance!

I found the same with the cali76 clone - it was a fraction of the weight of the Origin Effects pedal, too much to just be a cheaper enclosure. The Aggie tonehammer is another brick of a pedal, it weighs a tonne and runs 12v only. Obviously must not be a straight copy of the Aggie circuit then 🤔 Glad you enjoyed your pedal, the Aggie is immense too! It'd be interesting to see if the AGS operates the same way.
