The Wounded Paw blender was originally at the front, but I found I didn't switch any of the loops off, just individual pedals. And it was much more difficult reaching them behind that big ol' thing... I also use the Polytune as a kill switch - don't like the audience to hear tuning. Might turn it for aesthetic reasons once I've got more suitable leads. And I could move stuff around to get more pedals on there - used to have 3 envelope filters in different loops but the FI adds so much squelch I don't need them, and I've discovered that using the Microtubes on the main output seems to be more pleasing than in one of the loops. Also not too worried about the FI's size - it's not as big as the wireless receiver... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamiel Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Fair enough, still though, I don't think my mind could manage twisted pedals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) For the Marillion tribute band: Line 6 G50 wireless to Zoom B3n, accompanied by a Roland PK-5A controlling a Korg Volca Bass as it's a bloody sight cheaper than a Moog, then into a little Ammoon mixer offering more control than just putting the Volca into the Aux on the B3n. For the originals band and the covers band: Smooth Hound and Zoom MS-60B. But who knows, a Line 6 HD500 might be just round the corner.

operative451 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Latest iteration... For those 'don't know if i want to use the B3n' moments, plus OCDily flipping back and forth between amps - The A/B/Y pedal goes into the B3n input and the AUX, so the B3N is effectively bypassed And its also a sneaky way of getting a clean blend if i switch to Y mode...

Roland PK-5A (as it says on the top). MIDI pedalboard. I might be swapping to a McMillen 12 step which I also have, which is smaller and lighter, allows chords to be programmed in (for use with a MIDI module) but does flex a bit on a carpeted floor and needs me to sort out a 5V USB power supply (not a big problem). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumrd there would be cheap alternatives out there? Midi pedalboard does get a few 9still scary expensive) hits! Perhaps the easy way is to make one from a £30 midi controller, a bunch of sticks and a handful of microswitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could do it with an Arduino - I even wrote the sketch (including the ability to do chords) and came up with a diode matrix to work from the switches, and then it ground to a halt. I was going to do it with ordinary push-button switches. You never know, I might even revive the idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always fancied one since seeing Haze in the early 80s! With my co-ordination it would probably be little more than hitting a note and keeping my foot down...

Naigewron Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 (edited) I'm desperately trying to stick to a Nano, but I also really want a chorus pedal. Dilemmas, dilemmas. Other than that I'm pretty happy with this board. I do wish the MXR Bass DI had a cab sim built-in for when I go direct though. Fuzz does not sound good (to my ears) without a cab. I might trade it for a Tech21 DI with a cab sim, but I don't want to lose my distortion channel. Argh, more dilemmas.

You might be able to squeeze a little one on there, especially if you rotate the MXR 90 degrees!

What i would do is turn the MXR 90degrees, and move the tuner so its sitting long ways at the top of the first pedal. Then as others have said, you could easily get a TC Corona mini on there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ordep Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 (edited) update on the “big” board, added the becosfx mini comp. But currently most of the jams and practices are handled by the small bass/guitar hx stomp setup. Looking for a PT Nano so I can set the morningstar horizontally.

Its not a huge amount obviously but for my specific needs the + is just too narrow annoyingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
