Higgie Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) Haven't updated this for a while! This is the board I've been using lately. Signal chain is: Bass > Aguilar TLC > Aguilar Octamizer > MojoHand Cream Pie > X-Blender (Swollen Pickle Clone > Subdecay Proteus in the loop) > Sadowsky Pre (Korg DT-10 from Tuner Out) > Aguilar DB750 The whole board is in a LoopMaster Patcher to make things neater, with my In and Out from the board in one place. It's a PedalTrain Jnr with a Diago Power Station powering the whole board. Also, the little grey unit with the pick holder on is a 1 in, 2 out passive splitter I used to use when I had a bigger board. I velcro'd my pick holder to it for a convenient place to store my picks - I had no use for it's actual function on this board but there was space for it, so I put it on there anyway Some excellent boards posted here! Shep your boards are awesome! The only thing about them I don't envy is the weight! Edited October 1, 2011 by Higgie Quote
Gunsfreddy2003 Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Nice board. How do you find the Octamizer? I wonder if it would do a better job than the EBS one that I use? I run my Sadowsky at the start of the signal chain, how come you run yours at the end? Is the Loopmaster Patcher purely for tidiness purposes?

I just love the fact you have tone controls for both the octave and clean signal. Makes for a really versatile Octaver! The Sadowsky goes at the end because it seemed to act funny with my fuzz pedal. I like to use it as a Mute too, so I figured the end of the chain would be best. Might have to experiment a bit more with it! And yeah, the LoopMaster unit just makes it easier to route my cables by having both jacks coming from the same place. Quote
I am not excane Posted October 2, 2011 Posted October 2, 2011 [quote name='BigBassBob' timestamp='1317209979' post='1388047'] Thanks mate Well, they're quite different beasts; the BB is far more prone to breaking up (even at low gain settings) than the Phat Phuk and is obviously more versatile due to the bass and treble EQ. The Phat Phuk doesn't do a great deal to your sound other than adds a tiny bit of grit and boosts something in the low-mid and high-mid ranges that compliments my base tone very nicely. I've been using the BB as a low-gain grit pedal to fill out the sound for the more rocky numbers in my band's set while using the Phat Phuk either as an independent boost for solo breaks or to push the BB into a really organic, yet aggressive overdrive. [/quote] Sorry, I meant the Pickle Pie. Do you use the pickle and BB together? Quote
tayste_2000 Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 My latest with the new wireless. [IMG]http://i53.tinypic.com/2vj21ba.jpg[/IMG] Also gone back to the Super Nova Drive just to change things up Quote

[/quote] No worries, I often thought that Matt's choice of calling two of his most popular bass pedals Pickle Pie and Phat Phuk may raise confusion lol. Short answer: no as I always found the sound of fuzz into overdrive indistinct and messy. That said, it sounded pretty cool when I tried it, IIRC. I'll get back to you after I give it another spin some time. Quote
Walker Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 Just about getting there now after many months of buying, selling and experimenting. Sorry for the crappy shot. Quote
Wooks79 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Bit of a change around for this next gig, took a few pedals off the board, added a Novation Bass Station and a Gameboy Quote

cheddatom Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 That looks interesting! I'll check out your album some time. Quote
LiamPodmore Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Finally be able to add to this thread in the next month or two. I'm thinking of making myself a little board up with so far, a Boss TU-2/3 and Tech 21 VT Deluxe. Anyone got any other reccomendations for things to throw on there, nothing too expensive (£50-£60 max for now, second hand) and not too big, i only want this to be a small board, despite having a huge pedal on there.... Thanks in advance, Liam Quote

Thanks in advance, Liam [/quote] It all depends what genre of music you play. Although, at that price point, either an EHX bass big muff or a second hand Boss OC2 - depending on your needs. Quote

[/quote] Anything from really poppy stuff like Lady Gaga, to Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet For My Valentine etc.... But mostly Pop/Punk (Bowling For Soup, Good Charlotte, Sum 41 etc...) I have considered a Big Muff, but i'm not sure i'd need the crazy amounts of fuzz, although i do play Muse stuff, so its a possibilty. An OC-2 is on my list of pedals to get eventually though, along with an EHX Bass Micro Synth. Liam Quote
Sibob Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Ok, finally sorted V.3 [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/29596510150320827857091.jpg/][IMG]http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/169/29596510150320827857091.jpg[/IMG][/URL] So this is OC-2 -> Co-Pilot FX Orbit -> ME-50B -> CE-2B -> Boss Slicer. Juicy Lucy power and the only reason for the FX Loop pedal is because I want to go in and out at the same point, I don't switch it. I have the ME-50B set to Slow Gear (I have an original Boss one, but doesn't track as well), Analogue Delay, and some slightly different distortion to double up with the Orbit. Expression pedal is either set to Resonance filter or +1 Octave Whammy. Si Quote

simwells Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Still very much in progress right now but here's mine as it currently stands not quite fitting onto my Pedaltrain any more! The wiring is a mess but the board keeps changing, will get some better cabling and sort it all out once it gets more stable. Quote

BottomEndian Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 [quote name='RichF' timestamp='1319269905' post='1411976'] oooh, I like the look of that VT2! [/quote] I used to have one of those. Sounded great (lovely crunchy drive sound), and really tweakable, but it was physically [size=6]HUGE[/size]. Including the valves and protective handle thing, it must be about 5 inches tall. Quote
gilmour Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) After years of using only a Tuner I've put a board together as it was annoying me plugging in all the separate pedals each gig. [IMG]http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii143/gilmour_bass/Pedal%20Board/finished3.jpg[/IMG] The board itself is a DIY effort that's come out quite nicely, there's a build diary [url="http://finnbass.com/showthread.php?t=8233"]here[/url]. Edited October 22, 2011 by gilmour Quote
pantherairsoft Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 Thats a great board for a DIY job. Seriously seriously impressive mate! You could start selling them to the BC community. Quote
