Very nice board! What's that one pedal between the polychorus and SubDecay?
 
I think I may change my selection of who's board I would kill and steal for to fightthepower's board. :D

Have you used anything in the loop of the grinder yet? How does it sound? Is it wet at all?

And do you use your prometheus for a sample/hold, or a filter?
 
Is your synth wah going in to you LMB-3? I really like my limiter expander but I'm never sure where the best place is for it.
Something like a hard limiter is best at the end of the chain to control volume spikes.
On the other hand, something like a compressor or soft limiter can be good almost anywhere in the chain, and can really change how your other effects react and sound. IMHO/limited experience ;) of course.....
 
Any examples of hard and soft limiters?
hard limiter is basically where your signal can NEVER go over a certain dB, unless you boost after words (post gain). The ratio equivalent would be Infinity:1

I use the term soft limiter and compressor interchangeably, tho I prolly shouldn't. A soft limiter, or comp usually has a ratio around 3:1 or 4:1. It allows a little dynamicness, but controls peaking only a little especially as most comps have an attack time to allow your attack to be not compressed.

If your really interested, PM niftydog or bongomania (or both) an pick their brains about compression. They both know more about comp/limiters than most IMHO.
