Here's my latest update. I now have 4 preamp settings I can use at once with the Muff'n and the TriAC. I don't know if I am going to keep one and ditch the other or hold onto both. The Muff'n is still a little smoother with other distortions than the TriAC, but both are a major improvement over any of the dirts I'd played with before.
I have been selling people on trying out the HOG/POG/MicroPOG with a distortion in front to smooth out the digitally goodness. I was trying to make this work with the ODB-3 before the HOG. It wasn't sounding how I wanted but I discovered that if I juice the low band and kill the high band EQ and run the mix 100% dry, the squeakiness was really lessened on all but the highest octave settings. Turns out the dirts I used to smooth the squeaks did so only because they were cutting the highs. I am probably going to look for an EQ pedal to try and find the best place to drop out the high freq's.

Thanks, I appreciate the kind replys.
I really like this board, makes setting up and tearing down so much easier.
The SansAmp is really cool, it makes my amp sound 100% better. I especially like the programable effects loop. It could have been built better though (a sturdier box, better jacks and switches), we'll see how it holds up. It all runs off a Boss PSA power supply with a daisy chain.
ps: The Octave into the Flanger into the BassBalls into the Analog Delay is a sweet crazy sound.

I'm waiting to start building a new "big" board" with a friend, but just had to try and fit everything on my old board. This might be getting a 2nd tier while i wait for the new board to make it cleaner. On the new board i'll try to fit another couple of pedals (rusty box, a 2nd FX10...) and hide the power supply/power strip. AND use tidier wiring (I have a George L kit but didn't want to use them for this "mock-up"). Still haven't decided if the new board will be two-tier or slanted in a "Puma-style".
Oh well - here it is, crappy cellphone pic and messy in all its glory:

I would totally rock the hell out of that board! Well done.
I've been reading the "Post your pedalboard" threads for years and never actually posted any of my boards. This is what I'm currently using for live shows but it changes on a weekly basis. Sorry for the crappy photo, couldn't find my digital camera so I had to go the phone route.

How's the T.C. Phaser? Nice board, BTW.
Well, I just had the MXR flanger, EHX MicroPOG and EBS ValveDrive for quite a while. They were the only 3 pedals I really used. Then I decided to give the Blowtorch another shot. Now I'm trying to sell it again, it's not going anywhere fast.
Nice board, I love a simple Dirt, Octave, and Modulation board. Do you get a volume boost with both the sub octave and dry maxed?
Thanks. No volume boost that I can tell, it definitely gets thicker though.
