See how it sounds through the next month of writing but to date very happy with this. Just added some ebs patch cables which ha saved a tonne of space. Those EBS flat patch cables are great. How do you rate the TC Spark? Its on my list of stuff to try out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt on your Bass? Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 @dmc79 I was really surprised by the spark actually - in terms of how much I like it. It does exactly what I wanted it to do - provide a 'transparent' bit of drive on my signal, or to add some clean boost t the front end of my amp. Its exactly what I've been looking for from an overdrive over the last year - I've tried a few (not loads) and this just hits the mark. I've only had it on the board for about 2 weeks so next full rehearsal I'll probably put it through it's paces a lot more. I'd be interested to see how the mini compares, but i do like the flexibility this offers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Nothing exotic here. The Hartke chorus is going to be replaced with an Eden in the next few weeks. I use an amp footswitch to bring in tune emulated drive and ashdown sub harmonics if needed. Amy advice on pedal order, saving space, etc. Gratefully received!

CameronJ Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Haven’t posted here in a while. Here’s what my board looks like post-cull, all powered by a Strymon Ojai R30: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operative451 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 So i got fed up with lugging a board about and bought a multi-fx.. Um... Then this happened.... The fuzz and 'plexi' come from the bass, go into the little mixer and out to the Zoom. A keyboard goes into the Nux, which is being a looper (mostly) and then into the wah, then to mixer and zoom... And since the pic, i stuck a tuner in after the drives to easily mute the bass. Um... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blablas Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Added a few pedals (Luxe, Green Russian and a RAT clone), removed one (Ditto), also did some changes to the order. Made a secondary board and reinstated a few old pedals. I just couldn't get to grips with the one switch control of the TC ditto. Do I need to stamp it once, twice, hold? This makes me think while recording... and there goes another attempt at making a decent loop down the drain. That's why I bought a extra switching pedal for my Boss looper, blablas can cope better with more switches. Also placed my old Harley Benton compressor in front of the looper, this gives me the illusion of having just a little bit more control over the quality of the sound I want to loop. The two boards in one picture. Edited January 27, 2018 by blablas small error 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) This has to be the easiest /simplest pedal board in the world. No velcro needed. A myriad of connecting cables gratefully absent. No big power block. Heaven Edited January 27, 2018 by fleabag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAgent Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Massive update! I sold my Memory Boy, Opto Stomp and OC-2 because I didn't use them. Volume pedal is for sale as well but it'll stay on the board for now. The reverb is on the board with tie wraps because it has foam on the bottom, and if I remove that it's gonna leave a lot behind which makes it kinda impossible to put velcro on it. I don't have a proper solution yet. T-Rex Fuel Tank on the bottom btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 My humble board is now starting to become outgrown. I think I'm a fair way from catching up with some of you guys though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blablas Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I don't like these all in one pedals, I'm always having problems coming to grasps with the user interface on these things and if it breaks everything is broken. In my current set-up now I can change or move a paddle whenever I want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it for home use only, or do you gig with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blablas Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Home use. Just for my personal amusement. Gigged and played in a band a long long time ago - hated every moment of it - the nerves before a gig, the endless practising of the same thing over and over again and the pressure of having to do this practising at regular intervals.

GisserD Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 This is the final version of a board that' been in progress now for a few months. M5 wasn' getting used so it' made way for the Zeus in the loop of the gr2. All source audio pedals are in the volume loop as they can be switched on and off via midi. Powered by a pp2+ and a fuel tank under the board. The hub is under there too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Krow Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) @GisserD impressive! I'd probably need to go on a 4 month course before being allowed anywhere near that! Edited January 30, 2018 by Al Krow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 My first ever pedal board. I thought I’d get a cheap one as I was using a couple of boxes and it would keep them neat. I never realsied how addictive having one could be and now its already full and cost me quite a bit to fill it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
