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

Here's my current rig, pretty pedestrian compared to some of the mega boards of TB.

Yup, you pretty much nailed my effects needs... I use the Xero LPF for both dub purposes and for filter sweeps with a expression pedal that's not shown. I'm still figuring out the orbital... but that's my stretch pedal – as in trying to figure it out. If successful, maybe I'll pick up another Manta.
 
Lets go for it... latest pedalboard with power supplies hiden under VT bass deluxe diy raiser... as compact a as i can aford!

The routing let's me send my signal to FOH while having a EQ only on the signal to my stage amp... so I can eq my sound and have my preamp sound on any amp

SO first off, that JohnK Orange Bass Preamp pedal is awesome!!!!!!!!!! Amazing!!!!!! It sounds exactly like you hope it would. This is another winner!

So, the signal path has changed a bit and I tidied up the underside a bit to attach the power supplies and everything else.

So, signal path:

Start:
MicroThumpinator > Polytune > Fairfield Accountant > SFX Micro EQ > Cave Passive Super Grunt > Wounded Paw Blender v4 H2

Inside Blender:

A: Clean
B:Solid Gold FX Beta
C: Visual Sound Buffer >Fairfield Barbershop > John K Gamma Bass OD > Fuzzrocious Dark Driving
D: Visual Sound Buffer > Fuzzrocious Demon > Fuzzrocious Grey Stache > Fuzzrocious Rat King >SA OFD > SA Manta > SA Orbital

Out of the Blender:
SFX Micro Red Dragon mkII > SA Dimension Reverb > TC Ditto > JohnK Orange Bass Preamp > Lehle DC Filter > 3Leaf Enabler > Origin Effects Cali76 tx

SA Hub controlled by OneControl Gecko, SA Dual expression is hooked up to the Hub.

Everything is powered by 4 Visual Sound OneSpots and an 18v Power supply for the Cali76

I still desperately need to get a better Midi cable that has 90 degree connectors.

Awesome!!! Glad U like the orange, I love mine
 
How are you liking the Lofi machine? Only real bass info I can find on it was behndys demo.

QUESTION JACKING. i think it's.... okay. the bit crushing is a horrible useless white noise mess, but the sample rate reducing is decent. it doesn't have the widest range, but what it has is useful.

a Malekko Bit or Bug Crusher would do the same thing better x1000, but they're kinda a butt touch to track down.
