Pretty much as compact as I could go.

Line 6 G30 > Polytune > Valeton OC-10 > Cali76 > Aftershock > MS-60b > OmniCabSim Mini

I use the MS-60b mainly as a chorus/delay/mod and some EQ whenever I feel like it.

Trying to fit an hpf in there, I have some ideas but it won’t look pretty lol
 
Question for you all. Currently I am using a full sized Polytune, but I feel like if I got a smaller tuner, I'd have room for one more pedal (maybe a small DI). What are some recommended tiny tuners? I am thinking a Polytune Noir might look good on this board. Any other suggestions?

It is a medium-sized Pedaltrain Booster, with a Polytune, Broughton always-on HPF, and Fairfield Accountant, running into a Quilter head (I have both 101 Mini and BB800 depending on my needs) and a Revsound RS8:

This tuner has been the best one I’ve ever used. Fastest tracking and compact! And looks great on a Quilter...

Get a TC clip on. You’d have room for two pedals!

I got a tc electronic clip tuner. Clips onto headstpck, quick tune and into the pocket or leave it there.

I leave my tuner on the ground to use as a kill switch/tuner/patch-extension

Edit: i don't know how obvious my use of the line selector is, but it basically swaps out the TH preamp for the scrambler di, or allows me to use them both in series or parallel

Korg tuners have been really good to me. Got a Pitchblack clip on and it was amazingly quick and accurate. So I upgraded from my Boss TU-3 to a Pitchblack custom shop pedal tuner with a similar display.

Agree on the accuracy of the Pitch-black custom tuner. I have the clip on and also considered the floor pedal, but I like to have at least one Boss pedal on my board; in this case, a TU-3.

Did you have to put new feet on the bottom to raise it so you could get the power supply under there?
