Pedal boards + di

My BDDI Deluxe FX loop is so very handy. With my FX gigs I have so far always played straight to PA as backline using the regular output through EQ and Reverb always on, straight to mixer onstage, no vocals. I should really get myself another DI for simplicity.
 
This is my PedalTrain Nano. I use it for IEM gigs. I remove the ToneHammer when I use my rig.

I'm in the midst of setting up my board with a 3Leaf Enabler mounted under the deck. It's a custom board with outputs on the side of the board so it's easy to plug right in. Extra benefit of the Enabler is that it has an amazing headphone amp in it. Both the DI and the amp are always on so you can hide it under your board if you don't want to waste the space. You cannot use the EQ but for me that's ok. I love that I can just plug my bass and headphones into the side of my board and I have a silent practice setup with all my effects. I wired up the Aux In with an input too, not to mention the easy DI capabilities. I'll post some pics when I have it's all complete.
 
I was gonna wait until I was completely done before I posted my board, but what the heck?! Not quite ampless, I'm running the setup through a Crown power amp...Sorry for the crappy quality.

I just got the BassWitch, so I'm gonna play with it a bit tomorrow. The Tone Hammer, which I also just got, will probably be regulated to the b-list board I'm gonna set up. I'm on the waiting list for the FEA Labs stuff, so the M87 may be moved to the b-list board also. Honestly, I'm probably gonna replace everything on this board, except for the BassWitch, unless it doesn't work...

Looks like we're going the same direction. Except, after messing around with my Basswitch for a while today, the TH is definitely going to the back up board! The Basswitch is the REAL DEAL! I have a question for you and MarPi158, do you guys get any scratchy pot sounds from the LF and HF knobs? I am. It's not a huge deal, but those are the only 2 knobs that make any odd noises. Wasn't sure if that was normal or should I be worried...
