Pedal footprint size thread

I think this might have been tried before but I think it'd be really good for anyone wanting to plan a board to be able to size things up before buying the pedals. So post the footprint of your pedals if noone else has posted it yet. I'll add them all to this first post as they come in. If you're going to post it will make my job easier if you do the cm-inches conversion first so I don't have to do it every time. Please keep them in the same format that I'm using already. Again, just to make my job a little easier. Cheers, Joe :)

Thanks to GuitarGeek.com for some of the info on here. And to everyone on TalkBass that has posted sizes!

In Niftydog's words: As I see it, when you look at a pedal on the floor in front of you, width is left/right, depth is up/down and height is from the floor up. Don't neglect the dangly bits either, if it sticks out, include it in the measurement.

ALL DIMENTIONS ARE WIDTH x DEPTH x HEIGHT.

Hell no, all that info is public domain. It might be nice to credit the folks at the forum when you publish, though. I think this would really be appreciated by the forum, and if you alert the mods they can include it in the FAQ / general info thread we're working on.

Two suggestions; alpha order by manufacturer, then model, and include provision for both metric and imperial measurements! Oh yeah, an don't be ambiguous about which is height and which is depth! Maybe a small diagram to show which is which (H, W, D.)
 
Suggestion; Edit the doco in notepad, use tabs to space the columns, then use the code formatting block so you can get things neatened up a bit. Eg;

Code:
EH Flabbergaster	42(1.65")	83(3.27")	20(.79")
Zvex box o' mock	39(1.54")	28(1.1")	27(1.1")

Nice work so far, BTW.
 
Good idea. I use a Mac so I don't think I have notepad but I'll try to format it like that somehow.


Actually, I think for now I'll just make as many entries into the list as I can and I'll reformat the whole thing later when I figure out how. I'll leave spaces for pedals I can think of but don't know the sizes of. Again, any input from anyone else would be really helpful
 
Simpletext (OS9)

Any basic text editor will do... heck, you'd even be able to do it in Word. Anything that will let you select a fixed width font (like Courier) and handles tabs will do.




Might I suggest that anyone who wants to contribute sticks to a format that will make bassbmx's job easier!?!

Lets decide on a format and stick to it. Here's my suggestion:

Code:
[b]			WIDE		DEEP		HIGH
BRAND[/b]
PEDAL			mm(inch)	mm(inch)	mm(inch)

Consistency is key. It's all millimeters in metric, and all decimal fractions in imperial (none of this 8ths and 16ths nonsense!)

And, as I see it, when you look at a pedal on the floor in front of you, width is left/right, depth is up/down and height is from the floor up. Don't neglect the dangly bits either, if it sticks out, include it in the measurement.
 
WIDE DEEP HIGH
4ms
Tremulus Lune 38.1(1.5")101.6(4")101.6(4")

That formatting is busted. I don't understand what's what.

I'll measure an Ashdown Pedal when I get to my board (tonight).

Some pedals I'd like to know about are:
DOD FX 250, which I believe is smaller than the regular DOD FX series
and
Snarling Dogs Wah pedals

Thanks for doing this, it's insanely useful.

Thanks for the pedal dimensions! What do you mean that the formatting is busted though?
