I'm kinda rockin the doug wimbish thing right now with just a long ass row of pedals strewn across the floor. There is a piece of MDF there that once acted as a board...but it's long been obsolete.

I am A/Bing the PL an CP right now, but the CP is winning due to its tone knob. I'm probably going to go the chron/BigO route and have two boards, one for basement jams at my place where we do more tripped out jams, and a smaller cover band board where I go to another basement and play covers. It's all about the basement bands for me. The Ibanez phaser was just replaced with an HBE psilocybe yesdterday, but I didn;t feel like takin another pick.

Oh, and rather than my bare feet, I opted for the pink crocs...enjoy!!!
 
The FLV is a very warm analog circut. The switch allows a range from chorus thru jet-flange sounds in a compact package. I own several other flangers and this is the best sounding of the stomp variety (IMO). The SHO is the key to this board; w/o it the low end gets loose and the highs totally disappear. It's like the difference between old, dead strings and a new set of roundwounds. The difference in tone A/B'ed direct to the amp is negligible thanks to the SHO. BTW: I have plenty of current and absolutely no hum using just a Godlyke Power-All thru the tuner, which is out of line thanks to the SHO's two outputs. The Boss Delay/Reverb alone is a high current draw pedal and everything is quiet and happy. The funny thing is that I get more comments on the clock than anything else. Almost two grand invested in the board and everyone talks about the $4 clock put on because I used to play with a drummer who liked 45 minute hour long sets AND 45 minute 20 minute breaks)
 
Yeah, i'm pretty sure you are or very close to starving your pedals for power.

here is what I could find here.

http://www.stinkfoot.se/andreas/diy/power/list.htm

RV-3 Digital Reverb/Delay = 70 mA
FL-3 Flanger = 15 mA
TU-2 Tuner = 6 / 10 / 35 (tuning) mA

Searching around

Xotic BB Preamp = 6 mA
EBS BassIQ = 10 mA
MicroPOG = 200 mA :eek:

I couldn't find on the Demeter, the SOH or the Volume pedal,...but yeah,...I think "close to starving" is an understatement.
 
Yeah, about the crocs. I thought they were a silly fad and stayed the hell away from them. Then the wife got a pair..the pink ones you see in the pic. They are like walking on clouds from the heavens!! I wore hers so much she bought me a brown pair....but they were knockoffsand not nearly as comfy. I'm secure enough in my masculinity to keep on truckin in the pinkies....when she's not wearin'em. It's funny what happens to a man when he's fully domesticated. I get what Bill Hicks said about turning into a goober like his father. But yeah my old man makes fun of the pink crocs too.

To Freaky...I think I would rock a pedalboard with nothing else but delay and dirt....sooooo much win!!!
