Please identify these pedals before I develop OCD!

Ok, so TB user open_space posted this picture of the pedalboard of Kasabians bassist in the Pedalboards of The Stars Thread.

In the picture you can clearly see: Octave Multiplexor, Boss DS-1, BMP Tone Wicker, Bass Micro Synth, Boss TU-2

There are two more (maybe three) pedals that I can't identify, and no one viewing the thread seems to be able to either. I'm starting this new thread to get more attention on the subject because, for whatever reason, I really want to know. I'm not even that into Kasabian. I'm just randomly getting OCD on the subject.

Too bad you don't have a higher res pic. The pedal between the BMPTW and the XO BMS looks like a Pulsemonger Mk. 1 to me, but I can't be sure. A lot of small builders are using that layout and enclosure, but the stomp tends to be on the right. Even though it's the wrong color, the Pulsemonger Mk. 1 has the exact same layout. Dunno.

As for the other, I have no idea. That's a huge pedal with two giant knobs... Actually, it kinda looks like a radioshack enclosure, so it might be something he built himself. I'm not familiar with the band, so I can't say what tone he uses that all the other pedals wouldn't account for -- find a fan to get your answer.

Ok so I just looked at the source of the picture, and found this quote, which reveals why it maybe so hard to identify some of these.

Anyway, I thought this dark cold evening was as good a time as any to post a picture of Dib from Kasabian, with a pedal board I made him a couple of months ago.
