It looks like some sort of combiner/ splitter It’s a ground box, used to prevent any buzz, in this instance I’m just using it to move the input location as I use a custom cable that takes my signal and IEM feed, which is ace, but can pose challenges in terms of cable routing. This way works perfectly. 1 Quote
ped Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 I've put the Meatball on my pedalboard (it JUST fits!) so I can do the final phase of testing against my Mutron. I might need to move the tuner sideways a bit but I stuck it down with that ridiculously strong dual lock and might leave that fight for another day P.S I sometimes like an octave or fuzz in the Meatball loop - I tend to use an OC2 but I might make another board just for the loop with another fuzz and phaser on it too. 15 Quote
LukeFRC Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 I almost think you should go with chunky Nuetrik L jacks rather than those silly lightweight EBS ones! 2 Quote

That looks like a 1970's switch board. So cool 👌 2 1 Quote

So cool 👌 Cheers yeah it's a bit like a school science bench or one of those tape players we used to use in languages 😄 It's honestly coincidence that I love the Valco and Meatball pedals that happen to have the same type of enclosure. I bought the Valco fuzz first and just loved it. Maybe the looks factored into the decision to buy initially, but it's cool that they all sort of match. 2 Quote

There's no bloody way I'm taking it apart again 😄 I've found the EBS ones to be brilliant actually, the whole board is noise free. 1 1 Quote
0175westwood29 Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 all these boards are very neat so coming in like a brick, I switched the sea moon for the boss power driver 6 1 Quote
MrDinsdale Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 Another day, another pedalboard iteration. Still not sure if the Black Math will stay on here or go on my mini guitar board. Thinking I’ll rig up the Thru on the Olympic incase I want to run guitar through this board into the Science Mother preamp. 6 Quote
MichaelDean Posted June 14, 2024 Posted June 14, 2024 (edited) I did some experimenting on my lunch break today. I've been using my GX-100 solely for ages now, but was wondering what some dirt in the loop would be like. Magnificent is the answer... I need to tidy it all up and get a shorter stereo cable for the FV-500H, plus I've got a current double arriving tomorrow to power my GX from the main power supply. Looking forward to testing it at our gig tomorrow! Edited June 14, 2024 by MichaelDean Posted too soon. 7 Quote

I'm bewildered by these big multi effect units. So, my signal chain is: Volume block (now controlled by the FV-500) Compressor Wah (controlled by the toe button and then sweep of the pedal on the GX) Split the signal for parallel processing of: A bit of always on grit Drive Fuzz (Then out to the effects loop) Mojo Mojo Big Muff Noise gate Harmoniser (always set to octave down, switchable octave up) Delay (with weird wig out noises courtesy of the pedal in regular mode on the GX) Reverb I'm thinking abut replacing the parallel drive with another external pedal and getting rid of the parallel fuzz too. I'll see what I think after the gig tomorrow. I use it as a flexible pedalboard that I can turn elements on or off, rather than lots of different patches that I swap between. 2 Quote
JD69EYES Posted June 17, 2024 Posted June 17, 2024 I’m pretty much finished building my new fly board but I have a little bit of space on the lower deck of the board for some kind of micro pedal. I’m looking for something to fill that space that I don’t need to access often, like an always on pedal. Set it and forget it kind of thing. Does anyone have any suggestions of something that could fit in that little space? Signal path for those that are interested…. Harmonic Booster (always on) > Eons > Infinity > Julia > Delverb > Looper > Element. I use the tuner and compressor on the Infinity so not really looking for a separate pedal for those needs 15 Quote

acroxixo Posted June 19, 2024 Posted June 19, 2024 One more QC here 😆 It’s been fun with this setup. I connected the QC and H9 with a MIDI cable. Now I can change presets on the H9 with the QC. 11 Quote
lidl e Posted June 24, 2024 Posted June 24, 2024 I thought i was done but I was not. Did some rearranging. Added the One Control Mosquito blender. I need to dial in some clean. Took off the red muck and the paraeq deluxe and was able to squeeze my favourite distortion back on. i think I'll keep the paraeq for recording. 11 Quote
Rodders Posted June 27, 2024 Posted June 27, 2024 Added the Rodenberg LDP Deluxe to my board, we're gonna need a bigger board (boat).. Trying it in anger tonight at rehearsal. 6 Quote
