Post Your Pedalboard: Part 10, X Rated!

[Bjazzman]

bjazz, that is too cluttered man! haha!

yeah man i wish my pedalboard had the slots underneath to put my cables. I bought it at a vintage guitar shop before i knew about the pedaltrains. It came with a gigantic case, but i custom ordered a gig bag from Alteri in CO. I think I have way too many pedals for the pedaltrain pro and i don't think i want to lug around 2 pedalboards.

my current pedalboard that i use mainly for everything. but i would slowly add more effects and replace some of the effects that the zoom is doing.

lookng to get the a compressor no idea what to get tho, a Limiter/Enhancer, Equalizer and maybe replace the Bass Attack with a EBS Microbass II or something...

Real quick off topic:

OptimusPrime? And your in Fla? Which Prime are you? (G1,BW,Armada etc or...*coughcough*Bays?)

The board is being invaded by Transformers..BWhahahhaah so far theres Prime, Skywarp and ME... and that makes you outnumbered, Autobot .....

Now on topic:

I am new to the whole pedal thing. I grabbed a Digitech 80 series used for $30. Yea its for guitars so some FX don't work quite right on my basses but the ones I wanted the most work so thats cool. I also had a smaller Digitech fuzz pedal given to me. I don't really like that one to be honest and I have actually not heard super good things about Digitechs in general but I don't know crap about this type of gear so *shrug* My rep at Sweetwater recommended a Moog. I am pretty stupid with pedals so any suggestions my way? I want a pedal for distortion and echo mainly.

Yep, Florida is awesome. The only cartoon I have ever watched is the original Transformers series. I think there was this same discussion on one of the first pages of the thread.

I backed up a few pages and found the discussion, Prime, my bad. ^_^

I also took a better look at some of the pedals. I am SO CLUELESS MAN!!!! I have no idea what to get to get the sound I want. Shoot I think Im still trying to define the total sound I am looking to get, if that makes any sense. I have never thought of using sound FX so that aspect is totally new to me.

I say I want distortion and echo but I don't know what all is out there FX wise to really make such a limited comment I think. I might find some sound effect I like even more.. I dunno. Theres some decent sounds on the one Digitech I have but I do generally go back to one of the distortions and leave it at that.

I need some suggestions????

 

[rustynuts]

Maybe buy a cheap multi to get an idea of what the various effects are and then upgrade to single pedals of the ones you like,,,,?

 

[StarscreamG1]

Sound idea but not quite what I had in mind. ^_^ I know notta on brand names and the pros and cons of each one. Thanks anyway. ^_^

that cable on the floor is neatly woundup. mine is like in a mess

IT IS A FLANGER, I just though fuzz would look cool and confuse people if they tried to steal it.

No its a BYOC shredder and I swapped and switched a diodes a couple times to make it clip more like a fuzz than a distortion. Its not a sonic mess of fuzz, but its nice and articulate. Like a tired big muff without the gain between notes.

The other BYOC is a overdrive ts808 clone modded with LEDs for clipping and some of the other really nice stuff they throw in the kit. It sounds reallly good with light or mild drive. Im really liking the BYOC stuff. Building them is addicting.

Hey guys,
Getting into the swing of things around here, and wanted to contribute.

I put this together about a year ago, and have pretty much stuck with the layout since then. Stompin' Ground build the case and pedal surface, very solid.

The signal path is a bit odd, but very functional on the gig. Bass goes into the axess buffer/splitter, which sends out three signals, one for the always-on Peterson tuner, one to the "clean" side, and one to the "tube" side. The "clean" and "tube" sides are then brought into the two switchable inputs of the Bassbone.

The "clean" path goes: Octabass ->Compulator ->Deep Impact ->Bassbone channel 1. The Compulator is great in front of the Deep Impact to keep the level very constant for more accurate triggering.

The "tube" path goes: bigshot mix, with Bass-drive ->Phatbass in its effects loop ->Bassbone channel 2. The bigshot mix, blends the clean signal with the overdriven sounds around 50/50. It's also very nice to have the Bassdrive in front of the Phatbass(which is always on) because it warms up the Bassdrive nicely, keeping things pretty amp-like.

The Bassbone drives the whole thing, it lets me change quickly from synth/clean sounds and tube sounds, and with a dummy(not connected to anything) plug in the loop jack, the "boost/loop" switch acts as a master mute for both the amp and the DI. Because the tuner has its own dedicated send right at the front of the chain, I can always tune, even when another part of the chain is producing an highly effected sound, or when the bassbone is muted.

Also worth mentioning is the Burkey Flatliner, which powers everything, including the 12VAC Phatbass, and 15VDC Bassbone(factory mod).

Nice board! I like the 3 channel idea - Very cool.

I also use a Deep Impact, and Compulator, and power it all with a Flatliner. All 3 are amazing bits of kit!
