Show me your compact pedalboard setup
- Thread starter garmenteros
- Start date
I have moved from small pedalboard to even more compact one. BCB-30X is really durable and light case. Three switches on GTKCore are just enough - compressor, pitch shifter (-1 semitone), channel switch (Natural / X-Drive). And Peterson Strobostomp HD is the best tuner I have ever had. I should live with buil-in one tuner in GTKCore but Peterson's are much better (and bigger
).
).
I’m very pleased with it as a harmonic saturator and musical tone shaper. It also interacts very nicely with the Bassrig.
This is as compact as I can get for a live setup. Can’t say it’s too light but just about fits in my gig bag.
Experimenting with the tuner right before the preamp. Had a snafu with sound last night where my bass went completely dead, and this seems like it'll be easier to see if in still passing signal further down the chain than if it's at the front. Turns out the sound person hit mute accidentally. Whoops. Anyway, here it is.
I'm hoping for a two knob Phat Phuk B clone to go in the filter's effects loop, where the You're Doom currently is, just to have a dedicated drive specifically for the filter. Maybe Father's Day?

On a whim I put this together earlier.
I may or may not be dreaming about building a not-so-compact board out of this nucleus.
Either way, win / win / and win some more!

Mini board I through together yesterday so I could have something when I don’t want to haul the big board out.
Most recent update of my board:
More or less the same kinds of stuff, but I’ve just upgraded the quality. Most recent addition is the RC Booster, which I use when I have more than one bass at a gig to even out their level and overall frequency balance. And I love the Barbershop.

Trying to decide if the lab goes first or last-ish. The thing just works
I've not seen one before, but I'm loving the vintage style of the "lab". My dad was an electrician in the 1950s and 1960s and it looks like the sort of thing he used to build.
The Polytune 3 can be set to «display always on»-mode via two DIP swiches inside the pedal.View attachment 5050715
Mounted to a Pedaltrain Metro 16 and travels in a Pedaltrain hard case. I’m pretty happy with the reduced pedalboard size.
The one thing that might change is the tuner. I (for some reason) thought the Polytune was always-on display. I might go back to Peterson for that reason. Also, the color scheme would match again.
Yes. Mr Ronsound made me that clone. I searched up and down looking for someone to make a sub clone and just by dumb luck I happened upon a Facebook post of his from a few years back where he had made a couple of them. I reached out and asked if it was possible to get one and he said he thought he may have a board left and sure enough it happened. Fabulous little pedal. Love it.
I put the little sub sticker on it. I need to get my daughter to cut one for me that looks a little cleaner.
Love it so far for silent home practice and no rig gigs. Really versatile. Headed to the studio tonight and looking forward to how it tracks w/ the 3 to 4 tone shaping options I've been using w/ headphones. If it sounds the same in the studio, I'm golden.
I was a longtime Ampeg SVT user and lugged it for years. Thinking about getting this. Anxious to here how it does in the studio for you.
Never used an all tube SVT but have used Ampeg for many years [SVP Pre, pf800, SCR-DI, SVT-DI]. I'm thrilled when I can get one great tone but hoping the SVT-DI can give me more useable options. We're recording a rhythm track tonight [at least that's the plan] that has a Motown/ R&B groove and hoping the overdriven SVT B15 gets me where I want. We have a bluesy/ swing tune and would like to try either the 115 Heritage or 810 cab sims. Going in early to hear what sounds best.
