Show me your compact pedalboard setup

Put this small little compact thing together to start playing at a new church. Got one more thing on the way (Goodwood Audio Bass Box) and that’ll take the spot of the power supply which will move underneath.

My daughter wanted to help with the “building”

Don't think I can go much more compact than this. Really appreciating the versatility of the B7K Ultra here; this can go in front of an amp, go direct to the desk, or I can jam quietly anywhere with the aux-in and headphone out. Rechargeable power supply means that I don't even need a power outlet.

The pedalboard is one end piece from an Ikea Knagglig storage box (the smallest version)

Good Day sirs! here is the most compact board i have. its not as fancy and rare as what most of our brothers here at TB has in their compact boards but im very happy with mine and find myself bringing this mostly on small gigs and jams than the bigger boards. easy to carry,weightless and delivers that tone i need. TB has always been my greatest inspiration on bass gear. Thank you TB’ers!

That’s a mighty fine board! Would love to try out the Boss MD200.

Here’s my current Nano+. Loving the Origin Effects combo! The BassRig ‘64 sounds excellent in both IEM and through my amps. The re/Q gives me HPF/LPF and a bit more flexibility than the fender tone stack alone. Everything is comfortably powered by a Grip mounted Cioks Sol which allows me to run the Cali & re/Q at 18v for higher headroom.

Very nice! I really wish someone would make a mini tuner with top jacks and excellent tracking for bass. It shouldn't be a choose 2 of 3 scenario.
Is a top jack mini possible? I have no idea. That said, it would be cool to have a mini with a right side input (since most of us place the tuner first) and a top jack output.

The smallest I've found with top jacks and top power is the Dr Green Tune Up. I've heard the tracking on it is horrible though. I don't think top jacks and power would be possible in a micro unless you were able to stagger the jacks somehow. It'd still be really tight.

I’ve been looking at that Genzler pedal. Tell me to cure my gas by getting one of my own!

Fifth Gear just knocked a Lil Fella off the board. Am absolutely loving it on first blush. Whereas the MBD2 was a little scooped and modern, and the Fella was a little hard to dial out some boxiness with my particular setup, this just sounds like some drive stacked onto the Oracle. I hesitate to say neutral, but it's closer to that than the MBD2 or Fella. All three are fine pedals and I've gigged happily with the other two, but I'm pleased to have this one on board for a while.
