I don't use it a lot, yet. I have it set for a smoother sound that I use as a textural component in song intros and breakdowns. The pedal is capable of a whole lot more, however. It's really easy to write a song around the patterns you can dial in.Scotch, do you get many chances to use the murf in live situations? I heard some samples and it sounds great, but I'm not sure if I'd use it enough. Do you use it just for ambient synthy sounds, or are there other uses? thanks
Well, I've had some down time, so I built a new board from scratch. The first picture is my primary board, while the second board has my less-often used pedals as well as my D.I.'s.
Signal chain: Bass>VHT Valvulator>Xotic Bass RC Booster (for pumping up my low-output basses)>EBS Octabass>Fulltone Bass-Drive (running at 12v)>Frantone Thunderhead>EBS Valve Drive>HAZ Mu-Tron III+>MOOG Bass Murf (w/ expression pedal and tap tempo pedal)>Renz Mute Type II>Boss SYB-3>Amp and seperate output to Boss TU-15 Tuner

Extras: Mesa V-Twin>Boss ODB-3 Overdrive>Boss DD-5 Delay
Also footswitch for Fender 300Pro amp as well as SansAmp BDDI and Aguilar DB900 D.I.

I worked on it for about a week, during my free time. I'd estimate it took me about 8 hours (excluding glue drying time).scotch - you sir, are one handy guy. Really nice board, how long did it take to construct?
