Here's my current mini board, made from an Ikea 'Gorm' shelf in a camera case I got from a car boot sale
All pedals built by my own fair hands, with the exception of the Ditto & Bottomfeeder :)

Optical compressor > Pearl OC-7 Octaver (modded) clone > DAM Ezekiel clone > Boomstick Bottom Feeder filter > Crowther 'Prunes & Custard' clone > Maestro Stage Phaser clone > TC Electronics Ditto looper

[font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif]Simple, but still in progress - think to add compressor.[/font]

I can't seem to leave it alone ... :) ... a few changes in the near corner: Bearfoot Blueberry Bass Overdrive replaces Empress Multidrive, Cog Effects Grand Tarkin Bass Fuzz replaces Wren and Cuff Tall Font Russian.

nice board as ever :)

how does the grand tarkin compare to the TFR?
[/quote]
Thanks :)

I find the TFR to be a bit smoother and bassier, the Grand Tarkin on the other hand slightly raspier and with the mid and blend can be brighter and more audible in the mix. Both are great, just a matter of taste which to choose. I've gone back and forth a couple of times.

good to know! I'm currently in the honeymoon phase with a COG TK-421x (their souped-up RAT-based pedal), and it's just insanely good, so considering other COG pedals for the future :)

TFR is a fave of mine, but bit too nice/smooth for my current band, so the tarkin sounds a good shout... it never ends...

Been a while since I posted a board in this thread! Here is my new board:

[url="http://s22.photobucket.com/user/Higgie123/media/IMG_0158_zpsmt13cu8a.jpg.html"][/url]
[url="http://s22.photobucket.com/user/Higgie123/media/IMG_0159_zpsmowyhmdl.jpg.html"][/url]

The Input Jack goes straight into the Sadowsky Preamp, and the Output comes from the Micro Thumpinator underneath the board, with the jack sitting nicely in the hole on the back of the PT's frame. The other hole is for the right angled Fig 8 Lead for the Power Supply, which will be plugged in permanently, and just have the cable coiled on top of the board:

Anyone wondering what the gap on the left is for, it's for the AirTurn footswitch we use in our band to turn pages in forScore on our iPads. I haven't velcro'd it down as the footswitch belongs to the MD, so my plan is to use some spray adhesive, and attach some anti-slip mat to the slats (or just whole bottom corner I haven't decided yet). I've tried it without the adhesive and it actually doesn't budge at all, but I'd rather have the anti-slip stuff attached to the board permanently so I can just put the footswitch on it and off I go!

Oh and almost forgot, signal chain is as follows!

Sadowsky Preamp/DI (Turbo Tuner on the Tuner out)>Darkglass VMT>Aguilar TLC>Aguilar Octamizer>IE Oxide>Subdecay Prometheus>SFX Micro Thumpinator

My messy board, this isn't final but more seeing if I could fit everything on there. probably need a seperate power supply for the moogerfooger now.

Great selection, but you have the little OCD voice in my head screaming! ;)

Royal foggin' blood watch out. Runs parallel. Octave up "guitar" signal into small stone and Flyrig5. Other "bass" channel is TLC, VMT, Wah. Trinity reverb will be replaced with a TC Ditto looper later this week. Ownage.

Yeah I know right? I'm not one for these raised boards where all the wires are tidy, but it would be nice if things were aligned straight. need to buy some longer patches to give me a little wiggle room. and more pedals obvously :lol:

As a matter of interest, do you not find the tuner on the b3 good enough or do you use the tuner for sonethin else? Killswitch fir example? I only ask cos my b3 tunes perfectly! I've noticed a few folk do it.

The tuner on the B3 is good enough, I just prefer having the PB to kill the signal when I'm tuning up

here's my latest, a couple of switches on my MS-60B are borked, so I decided to spend today making a breakout box for the main stomp and the four crappy plastic ones orbitting it. When time permits I'm thinking about experimenting with a PIC microcontroller to allow one stomp switching of each of the effects in a bank without having to scroll across to them.
