Post your 1590a (tiny pedals) pedalboard

#101
So here's the board that's getting me kicked out. IMG_20160908_230709526.jpg
Not sure if it will stay in this order, I'll know tomorrow night when I get a chance to plug it in. Sweeper and Accountant are in the loop, Diamond passes through to the Modèle B to BMC to amp.
It's been swell, keep the mini alive and to quote Ahnald, "I'll be back!" As soon as Diamond makes a 1590a! I just couldn't live without that tone magic!
Love ya'll, bye for now.
Johno!

Have you had a chance to try @Azure Skies Broughton Monocle? Some reviewers have likened it favorably to a Diamond comp in 1590a format.

Not sure you can fit the tonal magic of a BCP in a 1590a. Maybe some day.
J!

I think it's doable!

Just look at all that frickin wasted space in the JR! Ditch the battery, move the in/out jacks down by the stomper, ditch the stomper's excessive daughterboard, integrate that into the main board... maybe two boards sandwiched together with SMD jelly-jammage in the middle...

SMD all the way baby!

I'm slightly skirting the requirement for half the pedals to be 1590a, but two of them are wirelesses and not pedals, and I did have a Mooer Tender Octaver on there for a couple months but I went back to the Pitch Fork.

From upper left, TC tuner, Broughton High and Low Pass Filters, Loop-Master AB switch, Southampton All Things Equal clean boost. I've decided that I like them for certain things, but I wouldn't want a board full of nothing but 1590a's. I get too many together in a row and it's hard for me to step on them accurately. And the short height and narrow width makes them especially difficult to kick on the back row. I have my tuner on a little riser so I can get to it without stepping on the pedals below it. But they're great for saving space on my board. I couldn't have this board without them.

Aahhh.
I don't need one but do want one just from looking at it.

Is it THAT good?

It's based on the clean boost circuit in the Klon Centaur, it's about dead transparent except for the tiny bit of extra highs it restores because it's an always-on buffer, and as long as you don't require a crazy loud boost from the unity point, it's great.
