Show me your compact pedalboard setup

It's a thought. I'd like to be able to utilize the system in a band setting too.
I have used the WJA 2X10 Powered and liked them. I had two set up with an Aguilar DB680 Tube Preamp. One on each side of the drummer...dual mono...

My practice board. This Broughton Messenger has an aux input and a headphone output so it satisfies all my home practice needs. It can also be used as my rig at band practice as well since we use in-ears only and I go straight to the board through the Messenger's DI.
I’ve watched several reviews on the BB after seeing your post, it looks pretty good. I have the SDrum and it’s often too much effort to use and get good results... I’m thinking the BB might be worth a test drive ;)
 
I didn't know I could do that with my BB, or if I did, I'd forgotten.
It requires the Beat Buddy Manager software on a computer to load beats to the pedal (full pedal only, not the Mini), and the Manager software is somewhat buggy. But if you're patient with it, it ultimately works. The Manager software has its own simple MIDI editor, previous caveats apply but even moreso. But alternatively you could create parts using any number of MIDI editors / DAWs / etc. Over the last few years I've programmed over 100 custom songs, some patched together from existing parts in the default songs but the majority of them from scratch (or mostly from scratch).
