Do you find the side of the box is a problem when stomping? I can imagine you might flip over your entire board when you mis-stomp and hit the edge by mistake. |

Wasn't happy with the tone of the M80 for some reason it just didn't seem to give a "full tone" if that makes any sense and the synth pedal doesn't track well and the usable sounds are minimal.
Added the MXR bass octave and bass fuzz pedals and a Countryman DI. I'll revisit a synth pedal down the line maybe the Markbass or the EHX ones.
As always I run amp-less with this board and IEM's it's been working out great.

don't like velcroing pedals. so i just tie em up with plastic cable ties thru the spaces between the tray.  |

The plastic edges of my craft case are flexible enough that they bend if I step on it. It's shorter than my pedals, but I might be able to break it if I tried, but not on accident.
