PYPB 41 - Fred The Goldfish

so many cool boards in here. niiiiiiiiiiice.

just finally sat down and rewired all my pedals to get rid of an annoying hum -

EA7B1894-18CD-42F7-A5C4-190218827469-38767-000012C6361A6290_zps109fbd3f.jpg


it's setup to have two outputs, i run each to it's own side of a stereo power amp into a pair of 12's each. Output 01 is always on and Output 02 is turned on and off with the first pedal on the bottom row next to the Mission expression. the empty spot next to the Possessed is for a Malekko Bit. i love the Bug Crusher but it was giving me too much noise.

Output 01 = Heavy Machine -> B3k -> Organizer -> Pickle Pie B -> Xero -> Faye Sing -> Possessed -> Source BEF -> M9 -> Timeline -> Nimbus -> Rusty Box

Output 02 = Ditto -> Super Ego -> Oxide (going to choose between that and a Depth Charger when it gets in) -> Pitch Factor -> Dan Built FET Preamp (underneath the board)

's been a lot of fun so far. lets me do loops and drones and arps out the 02 output then play other stuff over it through the 01. or go different fuzzes out of different cabs at the same time.
 
Here's what i have going on these days, just added the joyo and reordered some things. 74 p bass and an electric upright that i built myself go into the tone bone, sodameiser, hog, joyo ud, early 90s big muff that i had to re house due to a worn out switch (it's true bypass now!), carbon copy, and lastly a babyface trem into an ampeg ba500 with a 4 x10 extension. With a little help from this forum, I'm pretty damn happy with this. I've described my set up on a few other threads and figured i should share here too. The chrome stand you see is for the eub with my moog expression for the hog on the other side. Also, the boss tuner is not in the signal path, it's plugged into the tuner out on the radial.

NO mo TAFM behndy? Did the PPB take over its duties?

still got it, still LOVE IT. it's so one of my favorite fuzzes.

but i just don't have any room. like, at ALL. i think i might have to go back to a BEF Pro 'cause i didna realize the non-pro doesn't have a mix knob and i dunno how to shuffle stuff to get the bigger one to fit. i spaced my wobble ring, but if it won't go full effect it's not going to do the one thing i want out of it. i hope it gets close enough to hold me over until the BEF 2 comes out.

lol. SILLY SOURCY GUYS! IT'S YOUR BESTESTEST PEDAL! GIMME GIMME THEM 2 VERSIONS.

just picked up a Mooer LoFi instead of the Bit, gonna put it through some paces now, see if it's tasty.

YAY HOPEFULLY FILLED SRR SPOT.

There are so many OUTSTANDING boards posted here! Some of you guys are like evil geniuses when it comes to putting together awesome pedal boards! Almost makes me not want to post my kind of lame work-in-progress, but perhaps you guys will point me in the right directions?!?!

So, here's a pic of my board as it sits right now. Like I said, it's a work-in-progress, but I'm really happy with it so far...

The empty spaces are going to be filled when a few hard to obtain pedals become available. I'll probably have bunches of fun rearranging everything as I acquire stuff...:D! I could use some cabling ideas? What cables are you guys using and which ones will give me the best sound and the most space?

That board is great! Quality stuff there.

I like George L's for tight spaces and great sound. (If you want tips for assembly, I've had great success with my method- touring the world with my own boards as well as building boards for about a dozen clients: http://www.justinoscarcary.com/tips-tricks-tech/2011/8/26/-assembling-george-ls-cable.html )

Lava Cable also makes great compact solutions. Both soldered and solderless.
 
Looks like some solid choices so far man! George L's are solid and handy because you can cut to length, but they aren't 100% reliable, IMO, though others have had better success. Lavas seem to be killer but are pricey. Besides some George L's, I use hosa flat pancake cables that are really inexpensive and haven't failed me yet. All will help save space.

Thanks guys! I appreciate that. Wow, Scotch! What an honor! I was in a semi-acoustic act(I played electric bass) that does a Sixpence song. It was one of my faves! Great bass line!
 
For a while I have had a large board I made from an Ikea 'Gorm' board. I am aiming to move this down to a smaller more manageable size. But I can't just pick 3 or 4 pedals.

Hi my name is Tim and I have a pedal problem:(

What I am thinking...

What might not make the board...

You need a bigger board!

Too much good stuff not in play!
