PYPB 44: ...like Tetris with boxes, wires and cables
- Thread starter Jean Baudin
- Start date
Signal path is: DoD classic fuzz>Digitech Bass Driver>Seamoon Funk Machine>Pigtronix Envelope Phaser>Agent 00Funk>Rastop Super Bass Divider>Digitech Hyper Phase>Dan Electro Dan Echo>Line6 DM4.
I'm going to rearrange and place the Line6 nearer to the input with the other distortions and the Rastop (octave with fuzz) before the envelopes.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that the signal from the pedal board goes into either an ME6-b or ME8-b then into a first version Boomerang

Neat! Never seen an 00Funk in that enclosure before!
Edit: also I've never actually seen a Seamoon Funk Machine... Weird because I've always heard about them but never have seen a pic until now... Thanks!
It's the Mark I or original version of 00Funk.
It's the Version 2 of Seamoon Funk Machine.
Thanks

I run a Novation Ultranova Synthesizer into the WTX500, the Keith McMillen 12 Step runs into a Midi Expander under the board and to the Pedalbaord's midi output to the Ultranova so it can be foot controlled. The H9's in The FX Loop affect the Ultranova as well.
The 8ez and all three H9's are midi controlled with the Disaster Area Design's 8D Midi Controller, 128 presets, the Expression pedal plugs into this to send expression control to any or all three H9's.
The WTX500 has a two Button Footswitch with Mute and Enhance. I use the Mute as a master mute because it can mute the bass and the synth(post fx loop mute). The Enhance acts as a Master Boost (post fx loop).
Use a Korg Pitchblack Tuner that is on the keyboard stand that runs from the tuner out of the WTX500.
All cables are custom BTPA cables.
That's my rig!
PS-Bass is Ibanez Volo bass, 5 String, Strung E-C, Thomastk Jazz Flatwounds, 32" scale
Polytune2 >> Keeley Bassist >> Bearfoot Blueberry (always on, light OD) >> Darkglass Vintage Microtubes (added gain, boost) >> 3Leaf Enabler >> Neve RNDI
**The DI out of the Enabler sounds great but the RNDI sounds phenomenal. Doesn't hurt to have two separate DIs in case the worst happens

Still working on my pedalboard and flight case, but I truly love the Joyo PXL-PRO. I designed the top of pedalboard to be above the wiring on the PXL, that gives me more space for future pedals, and looks more in order.
Here's a fews pics of my current setup:

Is that the captain fx yeti fuzz?!??
I had never heard of the captain fx yeti fuzz, but it looks and sounds very similar. This pedal is actually a Custom Redman All-Star fuzz....that I "furred up" to match an older fuzz I had in the past. I don't think I will ever sell this one. It is probably used on 40% of the songs we do, and it truly sounds awesome.
Here is a reverb clip of the info on this pedal from Redman:
All-Star Fuzz 2014 - Handcrafted Germanium Fuzz Pedal - Premium Edition
Here is a clip of that captain fx yeti fuzz:
I decided to take the DOD Classic Fuzz out and re-route my board from distortions to modulators. The signal chain now is Line6 DM-4>Digitech Bass Driver>Rastop Super Bass Divider with Fuzz>Seamoon Funk Machine>Agent 00Funk>Pigtronix EP-2>Digitech Hyper Phase>Dan Electro Dan Echo. There are send and returns along the top row of connections which allow me to patch in one or two Boss multi units:

picked up a new line selector from Tom over at COG so i can switch between two different settings/amounts of parallel blend on my suncoast b1p preamps, setting 1 has the more overdriven pre lower in the mix, whilst setting 2 brings it forward
Sick board mate, really tidy. I have been looking at getting one of those joyo pxl, if I do, I might steal your design (if you don't mind)

How do you like the 66 mini? Really thinking of getting one sometime soon...
The COG stuff does come with a nice 12% built-in GBP rebate right now...
Not for people on Aus... It's still around double so 130 becomes 260
You are still ahead of where you would have been a couple of weeks ago
It really is my favourite distortion, no baked in weird tone, just what I put in... But MORE and tiny
Still compare it to other boxes and it's always coming out on top
Sounds good... Keep looking for something that's like my ibanez pd7 but with a blend, have got some nice tones from the bass OFD but still not the tone I'm looking for... That and I love mini enclosures
Man you should totally get one, I love trying out new distortions but this one is keeping my GAS down
I plugged in an old Dimarzio "very metal" distortion and on low gain is was a super snarling beast, thought about swapping it out for the 66 and then tried the COG again at a lower gain and it just fried the dimarzio
It's so awesome
