Can you detail how you did that, please?

Pictures would be good too.

Thank you.

Once I've completed it (with a spiral loom) I'll get up a nice gallery. But basically, I looked at the mods that Brim did for an ISO-5, but since they're the same height and depth of a PP2+, figured it'd work fine. I wanted mine flush to the back though (turns out it BARELY makes clearance after adding the rubber feet (bought at Home Depot)). The bits of frame cut away make good brackets, too.

Here's an example of Brim's:

So after wasting my whole morning here on TB and then having to get to the laundromat and do a bunch of running around and visiting friends I finally got around to reconfiguring an wiring up my pedalboard.

Unfortunately by that time it was lights out,.....

Edit: Just to comment on my board,...I pulled an LS-2 and the Groove Regulator off of my board,...favoring the Tri-Mod Wah instead (I have plans for the GR and the LS-2 in conjunction with my Bass MuRF). I basically replaced two pedals with one and was able to put the Dual Overdrive at the end of the chain for some extra gain.

Signal Flow = Bass --> TU-2 --> OC-2 --> MWBP --> LS-2 --> Tri-Mod Wah --> SD-2 --> Bass MuRF (not pictured) --> Amp.

LS-2 = Supercollider --> OLC Chunky Cheese on blend

Non-random specific question for EBennetts - what/how is your Octamizer mounted (referring to the pic on the previous page)?
Click to expand...

Well, up until a while ago, the Octamizers were a pain to pedalboard-mount. Aguilar now offers a "care package" with two bigger foam squares to replace the little feet. Much easier to put velcro on. And the thumbscrew gets a regular screw replacement. I just have my Octamizer shoved to the very edge of the board, the lip holds it up, but I'll velcro that too once it has a final resting place. It partially latches to the rail, partially rests on the PP2+

A little off topic here, but how did you get your TU-2 to light up like that?
Click to expand...

Camera trick. It's a long exposure so while the shutter is open,...any change that the TU-2 makes will be picked up and "recorded" by the camera. Kinda like when those nightime cityscapes where the headlights and taillights of moving cars create long streaks of light.

Source Audio is worthy of recognition for their awesome customer service, oh and their pedals aren't that bad either. (Actually their pedals are friggin sweet)

To be honest, I'm SUPER underwhelmed by their pedals so far. Their distortion has maybe a couple of decent sounds, but I find their most attractive quality in their "novelty" factor. I wish my distortion pedal had a back-lit graphic EQ section...

I've been buying pedals for a few years and never really used any. The band I'm in now has been encouraging me to solo more, so I put most of them on my board and ordered a couple more.

Chain is:

Tuner -> MXR Phase 90 ->Ibanez PD7 Distortion ->Big Muff ->Weeping Demon Wah ->DOD Envelope ->Ibanez CF7 Chorus/Flanger ->DOD Flanger ->Behringer Synth.

Couple notes:

1. Not sure how I feel about the Behringer stuff. I needed a tuner and wanted to try a synth, and what can I say, the price was right.
2. The Big Muff was painted white when I got it, so the way it looks now is an improvement.
3. The DOD blows the Ibanez flanger out of the water, the Ibanez may be leaving, or going to my guitar rig forever.
4. The Ibanez wah is killer.

Also, any suggestions on placement would be helpful.

Thanks!

I'd definitely put the BSY-600 after the tuner. Mine didn't seem to like things in front of it. I have my phase 90 set up last too. My .02 cents.
