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

Everything about this board makes me happy. The grand orbiter is an AMAZING pedal...

I've been looking into the Grand Orbiter for some time. I want something with a really lush sounding phase but that doesn't have a wombtone price tag. So far that's the Grand Orbiter and the Phase 99. I think after the Rainbow Machine it may be time to trade out my Phase 100 for something deeper sounding.

You guys are doing it to me again! I'm now thinking about the Grand Orbiter to replace my Phase 90. Jeez...

I've heard that the Phase 99 is just a much more phasey sound when you run the two phase circuits at the same time. Gives it a really deep phase sound(which is really attractive to me). The Grand Orbiter is just plain amazeballs as a basic phaser from what I've heard. The new one has an LFO kill mode to act as an envelope filter? A Phase AND Vibrato mode? The thing is like three pedals in one. That being said, the Phase 99 might come first before a Grand Orbiter purchase from me..

I really like everything about the orbiter, mainly the vibe setting. Man the vibe setting is so inspiring to play with for me. I could write for hours with various vibe settings. I've never played with a vibe effect before the orbiter so I can't compare it to others but this one rocks! Really thick sounding!

I find the Grand Orbiter to be a bit subtle and dark, it's a nice sound but it gets lost in the mix a bit compared to the MXR or EHX phasers.

I'm intrigued by the new Phasehugger by Fuzzhugger. I also would like to try an Orbital.

Forgot to turn the lights on last time.

Wow. That's insane. But nevertheless, cool as hell.

Exactly!....I sit here thinking the Phase 90 is good enough....then I see that Grand Orbiter....so many pedals I'd like to try, but that one I think will be near the top of my list.

Here's mine, evolution of pedal board

I'm impressed by your not upgrading to a board 4 times the size to fit ALL THE PEDALS(!)..

Yeah, I was going to say, these pics show a LOT of restraint. Well done!

With a need to travel light, I questioned almost every pedal. Not many remained...
For the type of music I play with my small board, the SuperBooster with the VT in front of it is the heart. The MS-60B is on it for fun, but barely gets any use. During all those rehearsals I really found, that for this nice and fat bass tone I'm looking for, it sounds just best when the good bass goes with little deviation into a nice preamp.

I so often brought things with with the biggest intention to really implement them into the sound, but all I did then was turning them off again thinking "damn this bass sounds good". That's why the working board looks so boring.
Don't you guys with the big boards sometimes have this? Or is your sound matching your pedalboard? I somehow would like to know what you play with all those nice little boxes. Some explanation could be given of what you're doing. Or a link would be great.
When I first saw Jean Baudins board I thought him to be gone completely nuts But when you hear the music he plays, it completely makes sense

I'm obviously looking for inputs to justify more pedals on the working board

My role and sound in my band def matches my board/playing. I use a lot of dirt in degrees and levels for almost every song. Then I throw in the rest throughout in different parts and passages. I think I have 3 most times 4 pedals on at all times.

I play at a few churches locally and in an original 3 piece. With the state of contemporary music where it is, it leaves a lot of delays and reverbs and other ambient sounds there to reproduce. We either don't have electric guitars, or the guitarists we have are guitar-->Tube amp kinda guys shredding leads without much else for texture. I try to fill in the void balancing texture and groove. It's kind of a fun challenge to take on.

 

[Somnambulance]

I play in a band in my room and sometimes I see if I can break my amp by turning all of my pedals on at once.

I do that all the time, well, when I know the neighbors are not home

My board is a guitar/bass church/home all-in-one board. So far I don't use the Beat Buddy and Infinity Looper at church, although I did kick them on at practice last week. The synths don't come on at church (though we all have to have goals!). On bass, the whole board is usually overkill---the compressor, B7K, the noise gate in the M5 are always on. I tinker with the rest, but ultimately I only throw on some modulation or other weirdness maybe on one song maybe every other set that I play. At home I play with these things a lot more. On guitar, I use more of the weirdness---I switch between clean and two or three levels of dirt (Multidrive and Heavy), throw on chorus pretty frequently, and use the Pitchfactor for some weirder things more regularly.
