Post Yer Pedalboard - 23 Skidoo

Reworked my pedalboard this weekend to include the Source Audio,...and the 2nd LS-2 I took the plunge on. I wanted to have a blender for the fuzz and a loop for the GR and the SD-2,...and well; one LS-2 won't do both (unless I'm missing something),...so a second one it is. I have another pedal that is the same size as the GR and the SC,...I hope I can squeeze it on there,...but I'll probably be tearing this board down this week. I think I can make it work if I flip the Supercollider over and scootch it more towards the OC-2. The Source Audio is a little too close to the TU-2 making it a little difficult to access the right most footswitch,...so I'll have to rearrange that slightly too.

Oh I still have the Bass MuRF,...but honestly,...that is in instrument in and of itself and to play it,...I think it needs to be within arms reach as opposed to on the ground. I've got some ideas as to what to do with it IE PT-JR on a sturdy music stand,...put it on a LYT pedal board with my MicroKORG and then on to a KB stand,...who knows.

For those interested,...Bass --> TU-2 --> OC-2 --> Source Audio --> LS-2 --> LS-2 --> Bass MuRF (currently on amp) --> Amp. LS-2 (1) = Supercollider Blended (and probably Chunky Cheese when it arrives). LS-2 (2) = SD-2 --> Groove Regulator.
 
Hey Warwick.hoy, how are you powering your MWBD? I just got a BBE Supa Charger and using the 9VDC 200mA output I'm thinking it should work fine but I don't want to blow it up or anything.

Just using the stock wall wart. I'm thinking the plan is to cable tie a power bar underneath the PT-2

Warwick.hoy:

What do you think of the Soundblox pedal? After the Bass Player review I was quite tempted to try one...

I'm still figuring the whole thing out but initially I think it's awesome,...I didn't read the article but it has some well thought out features such as the morphing and the MIDI capabilities and I have found some really usable tones. The clean blend is a great feature to have as well.

I've got a Fulltone Choralflange in my 'aux' loop right now, but I also have other options (Boss ODB-3, DD-5, EHX Nano Small Stone, LPB-1, Bass Big Muff, Fender Sub-Lime Bass Fuzz, Xotic BB).

Sweet board man, I've been thinking about putting send and return jacks on my board for an external 'aux' loop from my LS-2 and/or the loop on the BassDriverDeluxe.
I was wondering how your 'aux' loop is set up, do you have send and return jacks on your board? And how does it tie into your board (thru the Barge or the Exotic or other)? Also where in your chain is it?
Sorry for all the questions and sorry if you've already answered this before, I'm just looking for idea's. Thanks.:)

Happy to oblige! :)

Jacks are mounted on the rear patchbay:

These "aux" jacks (labeled 'send' & 'recieve') are connected to the last loop on the Loop-Master strip. So, whatever is inserted into the aux loop is last in the chain, and then routed back through the Loop-Master to the "out" jack on the patchbay.

Hey, thanks for taking the time to explain how you did your 'aux' loop (pics were a +).
I really like your board and the way it's laid out.
I'm going to order some jacks and give it a try. It'll be nice to be able to hook up external effects if I want and switch/blend them from the board, thanks for the idea's and inspiration.;)
 
I finally finished making the last of my cables for my pedal board, and here it is!

(Of course after years of collecting, testing, and building, I ironically take a total crap picture that doesn't do my dream board any justice)

Here is what it's made of, if you can't tell:

Pedal Train Pro
Voodoo Power 2+ (mounted underneath)
Loopmaster 10 loop bypass strip
Loop 1: Ibanez Weeping Demon
Loop 2: Ibanez Phat Hed Distortion
Loop 3: Blueberry
Loop 4: Rat + Boss Noise Suppressor
Loop 5: Hartke Bass Attack
Loop 6: Boss Bass Chorus
Loop 7: Boss Flanger
Loop 8: Boss PS3 Pitch Shifter
Loop 9: Boss Bass EQ + Boss DD3 Delay
Loop 10: Boss RV3 Digital Reverb
Tuner: Korg Pitch Black
GK Amp Control

All cables (25) are hand made from ProCo cable and switchcraft right angle plugs.

(looking for a geminidrive or pickle pie b)
