Here is my current setup.
It goes:
Digitech Whammy --> Boss PS-3 --> MXR Bass Blowtorch
Dry output: Boss GEB7 --> Boss LS2 input A
Wet: ProCo Turbo Rat (cut cap mod) --> Boss CEB3 --> Boss LS2 input B
Boss LS2 --> Boss DD7

Empty spot above whammy is for Dod FX72 - still waiting for 3PDT
Also Dod FX52 have to come soon, but currently i dont know where to put it. When i was planning this board, i kept in mind that it will also contain Subdecay Prometheus, so there should be place for Dod, till i buy Prometheus (next month). But where to put it after that..? Well, i guess i have to start making new board :D



P.s. there was discussion on other thread about LS2. Bryan Tyler and other guy stated that you need dummy plug in its input, to use it as mixer. Well, you guys where right actually - you do need dummy plug, unless you use power output of pedal. Realised that when messed around with cables.

So, to run LS2 as mixer, you need to have something inside its input or power output!

Vindication is mine!!! :D I'll repost this info in that thread.
 
the A/B cv switcher on the ground will most likely be velcro'd to the side of the MP201 to facilitate tap dancing subdivisions- Im just weighing my options before velcroing... Other plans ahead, but that's the deal for now.

I'm curious as to how you're using the CV switcher. From your description, it sounds like a 2 in 1 out pedal. Run two MP-201 channels into the inputs, each subdividing at a different rate, and then switch between them? Cool idea.
 
Latest pedalboard. I am running out of space but a bigger board would be impossible to carry.
Want to try out the memory boy to save some space (I hate the #1 echo volume drop too).
Maybe an ebs tremolo to replace the pulsar (which is cool but the ebs is better).

Yep thats the ticket- also good for switching between an LFO and Expression, and if you set up a few presets in a row(#30, 31, 32, etc) with different A/B combo's of LFO's and Exp, you can get a lot of ground in a song. I can't wait to try out the HASDR and a few of the other functions in the new MP201 firmware release..

Cool idea.

Sure is! Im pretty sure I got it from a post made by rnilson over on the moog forums(iirc he was using an ehx switchblade). I had mine made by user 'pharoahamps'- good price, choice of led's, configuration and size (mine was in the larger Orbit sized box to accommodate my layout), and he got it to me in a matter of days :cool:
 
:( that's not fair. Mine didn't...

Ah well, I've managed to cope with the straight ones.

There have been times that I wished some were straight. The angled ones are great for pedals with the power inputs on the side. They can be a slight hassle for top mounted power inputs. The hassle being that you have to decide which direction you want the angle going in for clean routing of the wire.

Honestly,...I've been thinking about going with a pedaltrain. The slatted design seems to be the best thing out there for clean and efficient cable/wire routing. I'm thinking of going with a two PT Mini setup, that way I can have one row of pedals.

Kalos irthes sto Talkbass. :D

Also, one space-saving measure would be replacing the ibanez tuner with a Pitchblack.
 
Geia sou, Nikos k egw :)

Yeah I like the way the pitchblack looks and I could squeeze it above the valvedrive along with the multicomp... I might get rid of the BBM too as I tend to use only the valvedrive's dirt.
 
wow

I feel so inadequate amongst you all...

Take away the Flanger and the Dunlop Wah, I was just borrowing those...

So I'm left with the muff and DS-2. Both great pedals.

But I want to expand.


I was thinking of getting a Digitech Whammy IV, or Morley Wah, I was also looking at POG's, but I don't really fancy them anymore. I see some amazing pedals in this thread, Moogerfoogers, whammys... Even Bluebeards... holy crap...



Any suggestions for a relative bass noob?

As for the TSLF, it doesn't get square wave like the Torn's Peaker, but its an octave up fuzz at the core, so I wasn't expecting that. The TP/blend might end up back on there, but prolly not. With the hook side I can boost my bass signal a little and add some nice harmonics that blend well with all the other channels fuzzes. Makes it a little more full, and you don't really notice the TLSF until its not in the mix. Saw side is just "blow stuff up", almost literally. It even outshines the Pickle in the mix. Almost like flipping the order of things. Hook = TLSF subtly adds to the sound, Saw = GT10B/Fuzzes subtly add to the sound.

Its fun being able to have the bass side as the main sound instead of just being there so I can fade it in/out and stuff, without really taking away from that core usage :bassist:

Im still on the fence about selling the VBjr and Torn's Peaker. I kindof want to use the TPs alternate mode as an instrument of sorts, but unless you have a RESISTANCE (cable or pup) connected to the input it doesn't do the high freq sine wave thing. Shame really.
