GisserD Posted February 11, 2020 Posted February 11, 2020 Diddnt think it necessary to start a new thread about this, so I thaught the folks here might appreciate it. Custom 3D printed power supply brackets under my board for my recently acquired zuma. Previously my 2 power supplies were only just covering my needs. Some pedals were under supplied but worked so I ignored it. Now everything has pleanty and I can genuinely say is sounds way better! A revelation for me. Anyway pics..... 7 Quote

One feature that might not come across in those photos is that its mounted at an angle so the power socket is central, whilst still giving ground clearance. You can see the base is thinner at this side in the pic Quote
GisserD Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 The board has had an update. Meatbox and ls2 exit stage right. Enter Xerograph Delux! I'm really happy with my board now. No changes for a whyle now. 4 Quote

Sibob Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 My new ‘fly board’: Trickfish Minnow -> Mooer Envelope -> MXR Vintage Octave -> TC Flashback -> TC Tuner The Mooer is temporary while someone makes a decent 1590a Bass Filter. The Flashback is running a Chorus Toneprint, which is actually very good! All on a Pedaltrain Nano and powered by a Cioks DC5 underneath. Very cool as gives me 4x isolated 9v and 1x isolated 12v for the Minnow! Si 1 Quote

I went round the houses trying (and buying) various chorus pedals. I have 2 new Boss in their boxes... the TC Classic toneprint Chorus is just what I always wanted (Mari Wilson👍). I run it in a TC BH550 head with the 2 toneprint slots and a 3 way pedal. Very good indeed on the fretless - most of what I use chorus for. A neat trick I think is pick up a used BH250 for around £100 - gets you a smallish back-up head and a great chorus (or any other single toneprint) solution for 20 quid more than a new Boss... just a thought. 1 Quote

Quatschmacher Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 I’m thinking about getting one of these smart track models as I hate Velcro. Just found that my local shop is a dealer so will check out at the weekend. https://www.aclamguitars.com/pedalboardsystem Anyone use them? If using the top-routing model, how tidy is it with a power supply running from underneath? Quote
