Space for more pedals of course....

I mean I was more distracted by the big space top right than wondering how it was powered ... but that's just me!

Working on a mini board for shows.

 

Will replace the custom dual distortion with a red muck, get a new compressor and lose the tuner as the plethora has one built-in.  The plethora will sit on the board when i get the pedals

 

 

Just trying to decide on what compressor. MXR or Empress

 

This board will give me everything i need i think. 

 

The actual board is one of those Harley Benton powered spaceship with the built in power supply.

The pedal I thought would be a slam dunk but has left me a touch disappointed is the Rattler. Done a fair bit of knob-twiddling with the blend but still getting a bit lost in the mix. However I love the secondary switch to go full-gain for those heavier parts, so will be staying in the board for now. Quite easy to accidentally engage that switch, mind..

I'm a bit of a Jam pedals fan boi but I moved my Rattler on.  I found it sucked too much of the bass out, even with the blend.

 

I've had the Lucy Dreamer for a couple of years and I've just acquired the Red Muck.  They won't be sold.

Good grief. IT’S GOT THE POWER BUILT INTO THE FRAME. Some of them have USB outlets as well. This is interesting!!

Pretty handy those, they really clean up your pedalboard and they have quite a lot of sockets.

[LukeFRC]

That’s a good idea - wish that had been around a year or so ago when I got my first board - would have been a lot cheaper than the Cioks and Voodoo lab dingbat  combo I ended up with.

 

mind you the after looking at them I am reminded that the smallish size of my board is a helpful guard from buying too many pedals

They do some pretty big versions 😉

Behind me satan!

[Woodinblack]

They also do them as an add on to an existing one of their boards. When I got mine the delay for getting the power supplies was big, so I got the board to set it up, then got the power supply on order. When it came you get new side bars, end bar and feet and just swap them over.

I needed a very compact board which would fit in my backpack with my class D head, cuz I normally have to lug gear everywhere on public transport. Thought about a chopping board, but in the end I went with a small tea tray! 😅

Father Bassmas got me a new octaver pedal, but now everything is spilling off my board. Guess I'll have to buy a new one then. What a nuisance...

I have a power supply addiction (weird I know). 

 

I already have a Cioks DC7 and Cioks 4, Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 3, Fender Engine Room LVL8, TRex Fuel Tank Jr, Boss PSA 230s and a 1Spot. 

 

I got a new power supply at Christmas, but this looks like my next hit. Sorry kids, you'll have to go hungry again.

Mods - isn’t the phrase “the smallish size of my board is a helpful guard from buying too many pedals” an instant ban?!

Nah - it's just a misguided notion, pending the realisation that a larger one is what's always been the requirement.

[MrDinsdale]

Tbh I have a sort of awkward pair of pedalboards, a RB duo 2.1 and tres 3.0 which are both the wrong size for my essentials gig board so maybe the spaceship power is a necessary purchase in some warped GAS-fuelled sense of reality.

Current modular board for band practice/gigs. The drive board tends to be left at home for gigs with the current favourite dirt pedal brought on its own.

 

The band still need persuading on the merits of the slicer.

 

PSU money shot added.

Wish I saw more boards with a boss ds1, I really like how it sounds on bass

Larger board acquired. Much more pleasing.

And there are some fairly simple mods that turn it into one of the best fat overdrives you can get.

- UAFX LA-2A comp

- Darkglass Alpha Omega Ultra overdrive / DI
