[/quote] They have plans to do so in the future it seems, they are, in their eyes, still a small business who's product control overseas is handled by other, small companies. I suspect things will change as the product continues to gain global popularity and eventually falls I to the hands of a large distributor who can also help handle international endorsements and tour support. I certainly wouldn't let it put you off using what is a fantastic product that solves the issue of space with cabling on pedal boards. Quote
mcgraham Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Congrats Shep! You definitely need some more endorsee T-shirts! Shep, is the board a single board with a riser for the Moog pedals? If so, how did you fit all the pedals on? Are some of them under the riser? I'm just finding it difficult to visualise how the board is laid out from the individual pics you've posted. I realise I can come round to the studio and look at the board to work this out, but thought I'd ask in case anyone else is wondering the same thing. Quote
pantherairsoft Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Mark, yes - its a single board with what the builder refers to as a 'bridge'. The bridge (or, raised platform) is secured in place with some small retaining bolts that just slide into the bottom of it. Most of the pedals that I don't tweak live are either under the bridge, or sat in 'hard to press' places and connected to the 8-way Bypass Looper, which I used to turn them on and off. If you look at the last set of pics I posted you'll see a small bracket next to the Mastotron and one above it near the back of the board, they are what the 'foot' of the bridge line up against/clamp too on that side. You'll see that same on the other side next to the power supply. There is a middle support as well but that does not clamp down. It runs the same length as the other two, starting just above the PN-2 and runs up between the Bass Drive & the Evenflo adapter above the PN-2. If you look at the cabling there you'll see that most of it is in a 'loom' which curves around to be against the side of the Bass Drive, yet 1 cable is loose and runs straight up, this is because they fall either side of the 'foot'.

RandomProddy Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Just got an SE-50 off Gumtree - but it's huge! Will put everything together and put pics up soonish... still need a powerplant for the pedals though Quote
Jacqueslemac Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I've bought a couple of pedals recently and now I'm at a bit of a loss for the order to put them in. Any suggestions, please? TU-2 tuner - ODB-1 overdrive - CEB-3 chorus - SYB-3 synthesizer - OC-3 octave - FL-3 flanger - CryBaby bass wah Thanks muchly. Quote
xgsjx Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I'd go TU2 > OC3 > ODB1 > SYB3 > CEB3 > CryBaby > Flanger as a starting point & then play about & see what makes the sounds "You" want. Quote
dudewheresmybass Posted January 7, 2012 Author Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) Personally I'd flip the odb and the syb first and run it :- Tuner - octave- synth- drive- wah- chorus / flanger At the end of the day try whichever way you fancy and gets you to the sounds you're after Edited January 7, 2012 by dudewheresmybass Quote
cheddatom Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 I prefer my wah before dirt... TU2 > OC3 > SYB3 > CEB3 > Flanger > CryBaby > ODB1 Quote
EskimoBassist Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Same, I don't really like the super exaggerated sound you get with it after. Quote
xgsjx Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 I tried putting the dirt after the filter & in a band situation I found it way to subtle to be noticed. But just because it doesn't suit me, doesn't mean it wont suit you. Experimentation is 1/2 the fun of building a board. Quote
pantherairsoft Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 For me... TU2 > OC3 > CryBaby > ODB3 > SYB3 > Flanger > CEB3 As mentioned though - try everything!!! Quote
deej Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 [quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1326098032' post='1492096'] Same, I don't really like the super exaggerated sound you get with it after. [/quote] I do the same with my modulation these days for exactly the same reason. I like the subtle textures you can add underneath dirt. Quote
RandomProddy Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Schematic as in picture. Footswitches for SE-50 and DS-2 and Exp pedal for SYB-5 not in diagram...[attachment=96887:thingy.JPG] Quote
JakeBrownBass Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) And the award for the most boring pedal board on bass chat goes to me Essentially what we've got is stereo DI box that my Roladn Gaia goes in to, Stereo feed to the PA, mono/L channel link goes to the A/B Pedal so i can switch between my bass & synth coming from my amp. A tuner & volume pedal. A really simple small board for only practical applications. Edited January 9, 2012 by JakeBrownBass Quote
JakeBrownBass Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Oh and a quick question for if anyone knows, will the SFX Micro Thumpinator fit in the small gap thats left before i click the buy button? Quote

pantherairsoft Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Depends on how much he has on. The Thumpinator is a retailed item on his site though, as opposed to a custom build so Max may have some stock of them? He's the best person to ask! Drop em' an email or PM. Quote
goblin Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 [IMG]http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k195/goblin92/32bc5573.jpg[/IMG] Here's mine. Got all I really need on it, I'm not into overdrive and such. Signals go into the A/B box, which then goes to the tuner, out of that into the chorus pedal (arrived this morning), and then into the MultiComp. Quote
EskimoBassist Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 WORLD'S LARGEST TUNER IS LARGE. What is the switch like on it? Quote
xgsjx Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Can that tuner be used as a metronome? I've been looking for a large metronome light (no sound). Quote
pantherairsoft Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Few tweaks and stuff and the boat is back together. Sweeeeeeet....
