Show me your compact pedalboard setup

Hi all! Pedalboard updated! I hope it's compact enough for the thread...The Parvati Fuzz arrived and has kicked out all the others that were claiming the throne of "main fuzz". I could pass to a more compact board. I'm planning to order the OBNE Haunt Fuzz, so the delay or the tremolo will have to go. Rationally thinking...I would use them both one time so when it will happen, I'll just plug them for one song

So a few weeks ago I showed up at a gig and realised that I hadn't brought my Helix, which meant I spent the gig using nothing but a clip-on tuner and a Countryman DI. Idiot.

But it did get me thinking about how little I could actually use to gig. The DI was a little too bland for the rock covers band, but now I've put this together. It's a fairly classic nano: tuner, dirt, preamp.

This easily wins the whole 'simple' section.

May I ask where the 3rd power cable coming from the noble leads?

That's coiled under the pedalboard to allow for an extra pedal to be powered / hooked up if needed. Normally that would the the Coda bluetooth page turner.

I'd like to be able to put an always on Broughton HPF underneath, but it's too wide / tall unless I raise the feet on the Nano.

And I'm slightly cheating because my Alien Audio main bass has built-in OD in the preamp.

Thanks! Any chance that a Volto would fit underneath? Maybe with some rubber feet attached?

I just mocked it up with my medium-sized PT booster and Volto. It does not fit because the Booster is wedge-shaped. But if you added 1/2" rubber feet to the thin edge (raising the pedalboard surface level instead of tilted) then it looks like the Volto would fit real nice. :)

I like that. Simple and very effective :)
