PYPB 44: ...like Tetris with boxes, wires and cables

I watched a live thing of Little Sister, Little Dog. I really liked it. I didn't realize you guys toured with All Get Out. They were supposed to play a house show at my place with a band from Long Island called Robbers, but they had to back out. Super nice dudes though. You may know Andrew and the Robbers guys too.

What is your personal favorite song you guys do? I'll check that one out next.


My favorite song to play is probably blood in her Brain and or Vibrator

And I thought I was organized.

The current shiz.

I LOVE IT.
I just played my first set tonight with it and I am seriously so happy.

Chain goes
LS2>timeline>am
Loop a: IE Subterranea>SA OFD>SA Manta>Eventide H9
Loop b: MXR BOD

Seriously could make a desert island board out of this once I sort out my power supply situation. Saving up sor something Cioks related. Everything is just perfect at the moment.


Looks like a PP Digital could handle that one. Put the sb2 pedals on one, then eventide and timeline have their own. Everything else would work fine on the last one.
 
Well my board has gone through a major transformation.

Haven't even gigged with it yet .... Will be playing keyboard with my feet ..... should be interesting :)

Damn! That's a whole nuther setup!

I'm totally into that 12 step too.
Want, want.

Let us know how you like the Roland after you've put it through its paces.
 
i think that's the same 12 Step i had for like 17 minutes. i love the idea and adore the design, but it was mebbe a foot across total. shizz was completely unusable for me..... and i only wear 13's. not some crazy big feet.

hope you dig it though.

The small size is one of the things that attracted me to the 12step. Hitting the wrong key has not been an issue ... not because of the size anyway :) .... I have been rehearsing with it & so far it's working exactly as I hoped.

I wear size 11's

PS: You certainly wouldn't want to try to use it wearing big work boots or any shoe of that type.
 
I AM A CLUMSY OAF. i don't even tight pack pedals. i think McWhoever makes a larger version of the 12 step. i'd like to check that out but that would mean adding some type of MIDI box or figuring out why i'm getting audio dropouts with my Komplete 6 usb interface to have a MIDI in for my laptop.

and i do like the Komplete 6 way more than the Scarlet whichever i'm using, but it's got issues with live playback.
 
urf. Focusrite does make a Scarlett one step up from the one i'm using that has MIDI in/outs, but it's huge. i love the size of the Komplete. murrrrrr might try some different drivers i guess.

hurm. dunno if it matters. McMillan only makes the tiny sizededed. i think i'd like to have a Taurus style thing that's just MIDI as an option. but don't want to carry anything huge or blow loads of monies on it.

DILEMMA.
 
Different strokes for different folks! I have size 14 feet and you've seen my crazy-packed board (it's all placed carefully and I personally have no issues after a little over 4 years using the same case). It is funny to see other peeps run their instruments through my board as some do have fun trying to get it right.

do you gig out a lot? that's where my concerns always stem from. i put stuff on my board/add keys or whatever always with knowing i have to accomodate what i can handle live.

lol. there are some things i's like to THINK i could add and do well live, but in reality i have to be aware of my limits and shortcomings.

I gig live all the time & with gear I'm always thanking about transporting & carrying & setup & teardown & oh yeah actually playing.

I've had my pedals to close before & didn't realize it until I was at a gig singing trying to stomp it without looking.

This 12step will be a challenge to sing, play bass & play it all at once .... should be fun though. :)
