Dude Im digging that Danelectro you got up there:bassist:

I love that pedal! I use it more as a noise source for those moments when I want to focus on the sound and textures and not worry about the whole instrument thing than as an effect. its not bad at that, though. I actually recorded a little krautrock thing the other day with it. Ill probably end up doing alot more in that vein as I move along musically.
 
Okay, should be semi-permanent. Doubtful, but I'm hoping.

The Hyperion came in today and replaced the ODB3, so if nothing else, I am NOT putting any more dirt on this board. And there's a gut shot as rigging the fuel tank jr. to this puppy took a little more work than I expected, but worked out great for me.

Here is DD's old board for compare and contrast.

looks good.

I keep a piece of gray medium density foam from a case project for turning my board over DD.

I believe that's Bogdan's Tonebender clone that never went into production, but I could be mistaken.

Yes and I never get to answer that question. ;)

Thanks. I know it's not a huge change, but it's mostly there for posterity :hiding: Especially considering I might be picking up an MXR Bass Auto Q to replace the Qtron. And it's fun (or scary) to see how much my board has changed from part II :eek: I didn't post again until part 17, I think, and how many changes in gone through from them til now (maybe two months).

Foam would be brilliant, but I do have a never-ending supply of bar towels.
 
I believe so. FTP, do you even own all of them?

Nope, I don't have the Delay or regular Murf. Ive thought about the Delay for a while, and I could definitely get some good use with it- i really like my DM-2, but I could really get down with the moog using my feet. That is a good lookin' row of pedals he has there!

But there is the issue of space. I would have to make some concessions... or upsize the Pt2 to a second PtPro. The Ringmod gets the least use, though it works as a midisyncable tremolo and I took the empress off.. and Im just busy with other pedals, so its just a smaller priority. Anyway, the delay is expensive, not essential at the moment, so its not anywhere in the near future plans.

Im more likely to get a second Freqbox, Im on the hunt for one right now.:ninja:
 
Oh, and nice board Dave.

What's your signal chain? I figure it's left to right on the bottom row, but I imagine the Qtron isn't after the Headrush, or is it?

And is the SansAmp last for DI purposes?

Yeah, it's right to left on the bottom and the qtron is before the headrush, then the sansamp. The only reason it's like that is because of the cable I have. I keep putting off either getting some George L's or soldering my own. I do use the DI on the Sansamp, but I've also been pulling it and the Pitchblack off to put on my PT jr. when I use it.
 
I made a few changes recently and think things are going to stay like this for awhile. I'm quite happy with everything but it sure is hard to not just get a larger board and keep adding pedals. I think the PT Jr size is perfect.

Gone is my Fulltone Bassdrive and Phase90. I have added the OCD (version4), Fatboost3 and as of yesterday, the Retro Sonic Phaser. My PP2+ is powering everything underneith. I ordered a custom cable from Voodoo labs to power the Halo chorus. I have a spare input power jack on the Pitchblack tuner that I can plug my wah pedal into if I decide to use it with this setup.

The Fatboost and OCD are a huge improvement over the Bassdrive. Much more versatile and no more low end loss! The Phaser is much more useful then the Phase90 in that there is no volume spike when using it with overdrive and the phase sound is much more smooth and clean. No clipping!

If I could fit a Micro Pog on this board I would love to have one again as it was really cool for the short time that I had it. But for now, I have everything covered that I need. The Retro Sonic phaser plays very nicely with my filters and is absolutely divine with the halo chorus.

Im not sure what brand the cables are. they are mostly 1 footers with a few 6 inchers in there as well. I bought a ton of them a few years ago from somewhere in the US and they have worked out really well. Sorry I don't have more info on them.

The Phaser has a low end boost rather then a loss. I have to be careful not to set the level too high as anything much higher then unity gain adds a deep smooth low end boost which is nice but can get out of control fast. I think thats one reason the pedal sounds so good as it has a bit of a mid scoop to it when engaged. Its not extreme but just makes the phasing effect very chimey and rich sounding.
