Behold my massive board of pedals

Bennyboy-UK · July 2023

There are some mega and very interesting rigs on show in this thread.

I ditched almost all of my pedals a while ago when I went Fractal FM3, but recently I’ve had need to use my small amp so I had to go and buy a few pedals to add a bit of seasoning and spice.

These are what’s currently on there - it’s a basic set up and all the pedals are in the loop - apart from tuner and all the gain is from the amp as well - Bogner Atma.

The TC 3rd Dimension makes for a really great (sound and value for money at about £30?!?!) replacement for the DC-2w which I had previously and loved - especially as I don’t need stereo.

The Boss EQ is really powerful and a secret weapon with so many uses. The board itself is an Aclam unit with the rubber clamps to secure the pedals without marking them which I like.

Theres space for another couple of pedals if I wanted... which I'm sure I will!

It should e compulsory to show the underside of the board as well.

See who the real nerds are!

Or maybe a separate thread, of ONLY the undersides?!

I'm in!

this is awesome. Would it be possible to use just one of the little pedal stops between each pedal instead of 2?

Totally you could use one on each side - the also angle so you can securely mount odd shaped pedals - round ones - any shape.

The Aclam stuff is really well made but I have seen that Joyo do a much less expensive knock off. When I was planning a huge board I was going to get their biggest one as it was something like half the price of the equivalent Aclam unit.

Ah, you've got it working! Excellent! Ignore me. Best policy.

Lordy. I think we found the source of Pete’s pension.

Been a long time since you last went full Cornish James! Did you keep them and just have them all off the board or have you been buying them back?

My new 'grown up' board.
Was really honest to myself & sold off the pedals not being used.
Brought a smaller board & voila.

<edited to change picture with the Bunker added today>
(totally love Thorpy's drives!)

The latest version of what’s been the same board for the last decade. The fundamentals have always been the Goosoniqueworx 7thvn & the Line 6 M5. Delays, overdrives and reverbs have varied. The Bright Onion trails looper has replaced the Boss LS-2 line selector as a virtual FX loop. So the top row of wet effects are all switchable at once.

Brio · September 2023

Finally getting there...
Drives and Compression into Tonex, then into GT1000. Specular Tempus in the GT1000 stereo loop. Tonex patches 27A to 29C are different IR only patches. Works great so I can use the Deluxe61, Revival Drive and Dirty Little Secret as ‘amps’ or run them as drives into say the Tonex ToneKing presets from Amalgam.
Or of course I can just use the GT1000 amps.
It does seem silly to be using the Tonex just as an IR loader but it does it much easier then the GT1000.

Arrival of The Dane marks the next iteration. It's an absolutely lovely pedal, and works brilliantly in a band mix.

For my musical inclination, I think this is the best board I’ve seen here. Wonderful stuff

I second that! Brilliant board!

I’ve been going through something of a downsizing phase this year, slowly reducing the number of pedals down to the minimum to get though our band’s set lists without losing too much variety. This is working pretty well at the moment but I’m still tweaking the overdrive to get it spot on with different guitars.

Doveholes · September 2023

I recently decided to downsize my board in anticipation of moving abroad next year. The updated version was finished today ahead of a tour that starts on Saturday, and I'm really happy with it! I intend to use the loop on the Euna for fuzzes that like to be first in the chain, which I'll either switch out with the Hoof or sit next to the board on the right.

Pastilles rather than altoids mints, controversial.

Lol.

I've got the Expression Ramper working great but am finding the Faves to be really fiddly and it doesn't always do what I'm wanting or expecting it to do. I'm pretty sure it's just user error, but did anyone else have this experience with it?

Nice.

What's the tele neck pickup? I've been pimping my almost identical looking guitar with something similar.

It's a Mojo humbucker-sized gold foil.

Lovely balance of sounds. How are you using the mood live?

Thanks! The Mood is being used as a multi-effect with Reverb / Delay / Slip sounds from the wet side saved as presets. With the expression ramper to add some movement. I'm also using the freeze function. To be totally honest, I'm not sure I'll ever use the microlooper side live, but it'll be good for recording.

Paul_C · September 2023

Mine at the moment (as seen elsewhere on the forum, but why not here too?) though I do plan to change the order a bit.

AntonHunter · September 2023

@Doveholes that looks a lot of fun. Where's the tour? Can we hear it in action?

Thanks! We're opening five gigs for for our label mates - dates here. It'll definitely be fun to run it through their Orange stacks.

Ah cool, would love to come to the Manchester date, but my partners out that night so I'm on the kids. Enjoy the tour!

GavRichList · September 2023

Have just ordered a Mood mkii myself. Did have a Rev C on the way, but made the mistake of watching a bunch of vids of the mood and had to change the order. Can’t wait.

Howdy, Stranger!
