Show me your compact pedalboard setup

How do you like The Hoof? Is it pretty mild, or over the top fuzz? Lastly, what does the SHIFT do?
I love it! It doesn’t get as mild as the original hoof, but does lower gain ok. It really excels for more insane face melting stuff. The shift knob alters the mids from a traditional muff scoop to a more humped midrange to cut through better.

Just got and configured the Dunlop DVP4 expression, and 3 pedals required a board...so..

What's your best rec for a mini phaser? I love my phase 45 clone, but it's just too big.

I'd say go with the Phase 95 for something on the small side. However, there is one annoying feature about it and that's the LED that stays lit at all times showing the phase rate even when the pedal is bypassed. Mooer makes a few small phasers and Hotone has a really small one.
 
What’s the black box at the top?
It's essentially phantom power for my bass (12v via TRS cable). I love my ACG preamp but it's a battery eater so I went with this. Works great, and if I'm ever stuck (PS goes out, forget a TRS cable, etc) I can put a battery in the bass and run that way.
 
Where did you find one?

Store on Reverb. I think they are just starting to get out there. The Eventide version is becoming available too and is $30 less expensive but doesn't have the 24 volt port. CIOKs is working on a cable for that port that the told me would power 24 volt pedals like some of the tube compressors I love.

Will it work for the slo3?

I have a Cioks DC7 on it’s way to me too, fantastic features for such a small box! 7 switchable outlets with 9V 660mA, 12V 500mA, 15V 400mA, 18V 330mA. And a 5V USB + a 24V DC output for connecting DC8 or DC4 for more outlets, or a 24V pedal (a cable for hat will come in the near future). But for SLO3 you’ll have to combine two outlets to get 12V 1000mA.
