Show me your compact pedalboard setup

awesome thank you fpr the input. i might as well bring the included wall charger and use it in play sir. cheers!
Buddy,

I just did a bit of quick research on your specific situation.

While the Volto 2 does have a 2000mA capacity it will operate at 500mA very comfortably for four hours.

Your draw is 483mA unless your tuner operates in bright mode, then it is 538mA.

You should be fine at a gig. Battery life extension can be better only using it when you need to.

:thumbsup:

How is that hpf/lpf pedal? I have been looking into them but can't find a good video to tell how much value there is.

I've got the Broughton HP/LP pedal. For live performances and removing the boom/mud from the room it's unparalleled. Takes a little getting used to in terms of dialing it in but totally worth it. I get nothing but compliments from FOH and audience alike.

Just took hold of a Morninstar MC6 and you can color me a believer haha. I’m pretty MIDI illiterate but the web editor and tutorial videos from ME are the best I’ve seen and got me up and running less than 20 minutes. Great companion to the stomp, let me kick a tuner off the board, and keep things relatively compact!

Also, shoutout to the Cioks DC7. That guy is powering everything on the board - including the stomp and Interbass, both of which have unusual and hefty power draws - without breaking a sweat!

Thats awesome! For the Interbass, are you using it to power cab or just as a pre? Curious , if using as a power amp, any performace issues using ths Cioks?

Sweet board! How's the Interbass treating you? I've been thinking of getting one as a practice and recording tool.

Right now I’m just taking the line out into the Effects return of my combo, but tomorrow I should be taking hold of a 112 cab that the Interbass is going to power by itself

Have only had it for a week or so but so far really digging it. Very tube-esque tone, very usable EQ, great for practice and super compact. Can’t wait to give it a go lowering cab by itself.

Thanks! Been eyeing the Interbass for a while but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I'm not gigging right now, so it'll mainly be practice/recording. Wouldn't hurt if gigging picks up again. It's like a three in one solution.

Great board! You and I are covering a lot of the same ground-

HXS->Jive->ParaEQ->Empress Comp->ReVolt->Cab M->Signal splits(Side A goes to FOH/Side B goes to a Headrush FRFR 112. The Strymons are going thru the FX loop of the ReVolt. Everything is powered by a Cioks DC7.

Figured out that the Drive channel on the ReVolt actually makes a better clean channel than the Clean channel. Works out because the Drive channel doesn't quite get me where I was hoping it would. The actual Clean channel is fantastic, and the Dirt channel is very good also, but that Drive channel had me baffled until set it this way.:thumbsup:;):D

Also the light in the Jive is BLINDING...:cool::cool:
