[/quote] Yeah man, thanks very much again for all your help, the Diago seems to be doing the business so far, it's only been one practice though, but they all worked, and more importantly no smoke!

dannybuoy Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Nice selection! The tuner looks dwarfed next to the Cali though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reversebird Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Never used to use pedals in the early days but as times gone by and now playing with a covers band one sound does not suit all. Ashdown Nate Mendel Dual Overdrive/Distortion Ashdown Chorus Boss Noise Gate Korg Pitchblack Tuner Aphex Bass Exciter Diago Power Supply Behringer DI box (like the Sans Amp) just in case I loose my amp while gigging I can still get a decent sound through the PA Compressor is on my Ashdown Klystron or Trace Elliot SMX along with the graphic EQ. To me the above is just enough to get the sound I require to play live and it all fits in a small pedal board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolo Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 [quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1398784918' post='2437580'] While my main board was out of action, Swanflight did me a great deal on a smaller board to see me through gigs in the meantime, and once my full board is sorted, that will become the pedalboard for my Verellen Meatsmoke Pre-amp that is on order. I have popped my amp in to Matamp, and Hayden is making an input for me to skip the GT200 pre, and just use the valve power section, so I will have a nice big choice of Matamp GT200, or 2 channels of Verellen Meatsmoke [/quote] I love my meatsmoke preamp! I run it into the passive input on the SWR 750x, to give me 3 channels effectively. I wouldn't have thought to put it in front of a tube amp though. Enjoy!

[/quote] Yeah, like the full Meatsmoke is a valve power section, so I figured I'd like to do that. Ben reckons it'll sound great, so that's good to know. I'll regularly put it into the power section of my Ampeg PF500 as well, when I can't be bothered lugging all the big amps around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charic Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I've started building my first board [attachment=162214:2014-05-07 18.46.37.jpg] Korg DT-10 -> LS2* -> Multiwave Bass Distortion -> Behringer Bass Chorus LS2 A Loop : Tech 21 XXL Bass -> GEB-7 LS2 B Loop : Clean All powered by a gigrig generator and a distributor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Used it for the first time last night and it sounds awesome The multiwave puts a smile on everyones face! The power cable on the behringer in a little too tight so it came out a few times. A bit of tape and putting slack into it should fix that though.

Panamonte Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 [url="http://s1187.photobucket.com/user/panamonte/media/pedalboard.jpg.html"][/url] I've been using more effects over the last year and setting up was becoming a time-consuming PITA so I bit the bullet and put my first board together. Tah-dah! Very pleased with the results so far, but maybe I should look for a smaller phaser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0175westwood29 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 really trying to resist the urges to buy more dirt and fuzz pedals! (subscribing to" pedals and effects" on youtube wasnt a smart move) my new cog effects pedal is giving some pretty ridiculous dirt sounds when you combine the tarkin and mesa flux drive, however i also have the lateral sounds root, so i have no need for more dirt, yet i cant stop looking at the earthquaker devices page! andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooks79 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Had a bit of a switch around today, after a bit of playing, I am gonna dump the Dark Driving I think. I get more use out of the B3K and will be playing more with the Beta as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FretNoMore Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I think my pedalboard is beginning to stabilize, there are only minor changes lately. Scary thought. Today I swapped the tuner and tremolo so I can reach the tremolo's switches, and made a riser for the envelope filter so I can connect an expression pedal at the front.

Roland Rock Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) I've made a little pedal board which had to satisfy two main criteria: 1: It had to fit in my 12"x12" protective case 2: I needed to be able to swap from dry tone to filtered fuzz very quickly I had previously tried to do it so that i could stomp the two effects at the same time, but it didn't work too well Edited May 13, 2014 by Roland Rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intime-nick Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 what's the red pedal with the noose on it ? - is it an I/O interface ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Hi Nick, It's a single bypass looper. When off, the signal goes straight from bass to amp. When engaged, it routes the signal through the tuner>fuzz>LPF and back again. I like a combination of fuzz and filter, so I just leave them both on, and pressing on 'The Noose' brings them both into play instantly.
