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

Finally got around to building a smaller board that I could just leave in practice places. Close enough to my studio and stage sound (think chorus with overdrive had a baby with a metal zone) with the same on/offs. Behringer ftw.

I have one of their cheap BLE400 pedals, which I think is a knock off of the Boss LMB3, though I've never plugged it in. How do you like 'em overall?

Made a new test board. Not pictured: the 3rd Southampton Fifth Gear I've purchased (it's in transit, I need to stop selling those things lol)

love 'em! Some of those are closing in on 15-16 years and never had a problem. When they first came out everyone scoffed at the plastic housing but I haven't had one ever break.

I've heard that the B* compressor may be a little bit noisier than the Boss, but I figured at 20$ new, I could take the risk. I was sort of contemplating setting up a small setup for my fretless, and thought it might be a decent fit. I usually go to the other end of the pool 300-500$ range for a decent compressor.

the Bass Behringer compressor (4 knob) is noisy, I have one doesn't get used. The three knob is good.
