I have an always on pedal tucked inside the back of my rack. If you leave your compressor on all the time and don't mind it towards the end of your chain it's a simple way to make room for just one more.

Did you order direct from Cioks or distributor? Just searched and can't find in U.S. distributors via Google. Thanks.
Just entering the pedal board world...I bought a glove box door off a 1971 Chevy C10 at Pick N Pull for 12 bucks. Took a few rubber pieces off the hood of a random car & viola
...Room for one more

Here's my current build. Everything is powered by a Cioks AC/8 placed in the top well and using right angle RCA adapters to allow it to fit in the pedaltrain bag.
Effect chain is TC Polytune>Studio bass compressor>EBS Valvedrive>Mooer Bass EQ> Saturn works buffered splitter> SPLITS TO <Fdeck HPF to Amp> & <AMT CAB Emulator ->Orchid DI to FOH>

- Get a piece of wood that will fit in the length of the well.
- Put Velcro over it.
- Put your Corona and polytune2 on it length-wise.
- Use the freed up extra room to move the existing pedals around to make room for the MXR BOD.
- Place and cable up the MXR.
- Have fun!
That's a really good idea! thanks mate

possibly no need for the block of wood. My Polytune mini sits in that position with just a zip tie holding it on.

Finished tidying up my pedalboard today, hopefully I'm happy with it a long while as it's going to be a huge pain to dissemble!
Pedaltrain Mini > Korg Pitchblack tuner > Aguilar TLC Compressor > Aguilar Agro > Wren and Cuff Pickle Pie B Hella Fuzz > Aguilar Tone Hammer preamp/DI. Cabling is Hosa and power is a 1 Spot plus GodLyke Iso-Pump to get 18 volts to the Tone Hammer.

I think I finally have it! Compact, self-powered, absolutely perfect for me. The most recent addition was the Volto battery pack power supply. I was a little worried about going with the Volto power supply after reading several negative reviews about short running times, but I pulled the trigger. I am not disappointed...at least for these pedals, runtime exceeds 18 hours (estimated based on a few days of use).

For all the Volto users: can I use a 1spot daisy chain to power more than 6 pedals? I have 7 at the moment
Thanks!
Thanks!
Manual is here: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...XY7BnI&usg=AFQjCNGDDjg1Q5BRLFGiOal_K7hzYG7fMQ
From the manual: "The Pedaltrain VOLTO is an innovative solution for the pedal user on the go. We have designed this unit with two 9 volt outputs which are capable of providing a total output power capacity of 2000mA. The VOLTO will provide clean, super quiet power to as many 9 volt pedals as you like. However, the battery life will be directly related to the total current draw of the pedals you’re using. In other words, the more pedals you use at once, the shorter time the charge of the battery will last."
Hope this helps.
Thanks for that. I ended up using the daisy chain from my 1 spot. It easily powered 7 pedals through a 2 hour practice tonight
Yeah, 3 hour gig on Sunday..the three power-level lights were all still on. I keep a 1 spot handy though, just in case.
