Well I sold my Pedaltrain Mini, and bought a Pedaltrain Metro 16. Shorter board so will be easier to fly with, and with the top rail, which is perfect for a couple of small, always on pedals, means I have room for one more now as well.
My Aguilar pedals, Sanyo Pedal juice and Korg PB on a home made mini sized board
^^^ I always love seeing this board (in all of its iterations)!
It's not that it's an ad for Aguilar; rather that it's in large part symmetrical, organized and even the Mooer connectors are cool.

@Feral Feline requested extra pics of this set up a while ago. I took this pic on the mini board (obviously) but didn't post it for some reason. I only posted the ag pedals on the Nano, with the THDI next to it.^^^ I always love seeing this board (in all of its iterations)!

Here is my mini again. Trying out a tiewrap solution because after so many pedalboard changes I'm really starting to hate velcro.
The M5 has a built-in tuner but it's screen is so tiny that I prefer the Korg. But as soon as I found another flavor of dirtpedal to go along with the Mojomojo and ODB-3 than it might leave. Alltho I like most of the dirt sounds that are in the M5, but I do kind of miss a blend option to retain some of the lows.
But what are all these pics without hearing some sounds? Well this is what I do with these pedals:

And I I've been drooling over the subsequent home-made board pics!
Just finished mine!
Someday I'll want to replace the Pitchblack with a Line6 G70 wireless / tuner, but I'm going to wait for the gigs to pick up a bit more before doing that.
Check out the shure glxd pedal wireless. I love mine. Rechargeable transmitter, full range, great tuner, can charge off any USB port so I typically charge it in the car on the way to gigs with my cell phone charger.
just finished swapping some pedals on mine, going to go with this this weekend and see how it goes at rehearsal. I use a sans amp RBI as a pre and use it for that Rock grind/drive type of vibe. Boss and bbe stay on all the time... I know I know boring lol

Got myself a power supply and finally replaced that dreadful Behringer tuner.
Next up would be replacing the Flanger with a Chorus, because that effectively all I use it for anyway. Any suggestions for 80s shimmer?
About the AMT BC-1 Crunch Bass, the clean channel sounds gorgeous but I can not for the life of me get a solid tone from the dirty channel :/

I'm noticing more and more Deluxe Big Muff Pi's... they sounding and cutting through better than the other versions ?
Ya know I stayed away from it for a while for a couple reasons. People claiming is doesn't cut through, I thought it was a bigger pedal than it actually is, and ya know big muffs are kind of the go to fuzz.
Comparing to the bass big muff I would say the biggest improvement is actually the -10 switch. It removes the nasty harness you get when using active basses (I play a stingray 5H). I doubt I'll ever use it with the -10 off that switch makes such a big improvement with my bass. The gate really isn't that big of a deal to me because I like to use it on parts where I'm constantly playing, like driving parts, so the gate isnt ever having to do anything. The crossover has some weirdness to it so I haven't messed with it much so far but I'll probably try to get a decent second fuzz sound out of it eventually.
As for cutting through. I play in a one guitar band and it works nicely. I don't use it for parts with heavy rhythm guitar but I personally feel a drive is better option in that situation anyways(I have a rack sans amp) . So no it doesn't cut through massive dirty guitar chords REALLY well but it cuts through just fine when the guitar is clean or playing higher parts which is when I actually use it anyways.

The board for this week. I just picked up the DD-500 so I'm still figuring it out. I normally use a Caroline Kilobyte as my delay. So far I can get the delay sound really close to the Kilobyte but the oscillation isn't quite the same.
