    Here’s my current board, black box is an Octave Fuzz I’m working on.

    … how do you find the Zoia please? Are the effects available comparable to their pedal separate counterparts?

     

    I used to have a HX Stomp but found for a few effects I wanted analogue pedals as the digital counterparts were not quite the same etc.

  2. …. yeah tell me about it, I priced up my main board recently and it was just under being able to get TWO Neural DSP Quad Cortex units….

     

     

     

     

     

     

    …. but I like actual pedals 😁

  3. I have a few compressors including the Xotic. Enough controls for me (always on and the odd bit if twiddling but not much really). I love the fact it’s analogue and reasonably simple. It squishes nicely and at low and mid settings no real issue with noise. At high if you adjust the blend control suitably noise is reduced to an acceptable level. I also have a Spectracomp that I like as well.

  4. Hey all, Just bought a pedal from Laurence. It was well packaged, very good price, as described and posted quickly using Special Delivery. All top stuff so would definitely deal with again, Peace 👍🏼

    Version final.1... 

    Changed out the TC HOF2 for the MERIS mercury 7. The HOF was really great and I enjoyed it more than my h9, walrus audio etc but the MERIS imo is just another level.

    I don't really stack much, but order is:

    Origin effects Cali76 bass Compressor always on into the G3

    Korg pitchblack Tuner

    Dunwich Wizard fuzz

    Does it Doom Walpurgis

    Parapedal Parachute wah

    Strymon volante

    MERIS mercury 7

    Dunlop volume pedal (after G3 ATM)

    … could I please ask what is the benefit of the G3?

  6. … well it does depend on what style of Worship the church tends to do. Currently we play a rock/folk sort of vibe, a bit of a loose generalisation I know. I just use a Nano normally with a Radial Instrument switcher, tuner, Spectracomp and finally a Exciter Pre-amp pedal/DI. We use IEMs so the mix is always decent. I once took a bigger board with an Octave, delay, overdrive etc on it and tbh I was surprised how well using the effects worked, but It is normally fairly keep out of the way type of stuff as the focus is on Worship, not getting the dance floor full he he. Saying all that I used to play at a much larger church where the vibe was a really great mix of Gospel-RnB-Funk, but I was a ‘no-effects’ kind of chap then ha ha!! Good question though Thunderbird 👍🏼

  7. … so I’m going to consolidate my many boards into a ‘Home only’ board for looping stuff etc and a ‘live board’ each for church and then Funk/Motown stuff. Just picked up a used Pedaltrain JR Max for a great price also 👍🏼

    … the new board:

    … and what it’ll hopefully look like with one more pedal purchase (Fredric Effects BugCrusher at some point):

  8. Over the lockdowns I ended up collecting 5 compressors 😁(Markbass Compressore, Origin Effects CB, TC Electronic Spectracomp, Xotic SP and the Seymour Duncan Studio Bass).


    The easiest to get super squishy quickly is the previously mentioned Xotic, however IIRC the Markbass can get there easily also. Oh and the Spectracomp will no doubt be able to get there with either the correct tone print or a bit of editing 😁).
