Show me your compact pedalboard setup

Ok, this new setup is way fun.

The Shift-Line Buzz may be my new favorite drive… and the Hizumitas is gnarly as well. This is a *great* bass fuzz. Stack it with the Shift-Line to melt faces.

The Ego is such a great comp. I’m surprised it isn’t more popular around here.

This board has gone through several changes in the last few months, but I think this will remain as such for a bit. I recently managed to get my hands on an OC-2, which is taking the place of the C4 Synth I had. The C4 Synth is a great pedal but somehow I just wasn't blown away by it. Maybe I just prefer pedals that do one specific effect but do it really really well.

Changed my pedal rig somewhat recently, and now with my latest change from a DG head to an Orange head, the channel footswitch doesn't quiiiiiite fit into the compact Rockboard's layout (where the DG's switch was dead perfect for that space) and it's just a bit of a bummer.

I think that’s just a standard latching switch. Check out saturnworks - you could get a micro latching switch and likely customize with an LED if that’s a dealbreaker.

When I had an SVTIIIpro just about any latching switch worked. I have a Saturnworks latching switch with switchable polarity so you can make sure the led turns on when the amp does what you want. I have one for the eq of my Mesa Bass 400+ eq and it works great.
This is cool Graham! Any idea how I could do this for my Ampeg SVT-3 Pro? I don’t know how to identify what I need.

You can either email Ampeg or do some creative web searching. As mentioned above, most of them are standard latching switches. I would also imagine Saturnworks might have some ideas for certain amps that they see a lot of people inquiring about.
