So you're running it exactly like how I want to! I'm so glad to hear that it works for that purpose. My future board idea is C4, Ultrawave, GFI Synesthesia, and a Stomp for anything I'm missing + to control the other three. So glad to hear that someone else is finding that setup worth using.The chain is tuner, Atlas, Stomp, with the C4 and Aftershock in the FX loop.
I researched and researched and almost went with a midi controller on the board but having a stomp box tuner won out. Learned that I could use the stomps instant midi commands to go out from the stomp to a neuro hub which talks to all of the source pedals. Then when I switch presets on the stomp, the neuro pulls up a sets of presets simultaneously for the source pedals.
All in all, a pretty clean solution to keep things versatile yet compact if I do say so myself haha
Oh, and for an updated board for this thread - this is what mine is currently looking like:

Everything's yelling at me to get a bigger board, but something on the inside tells me to downsize to that all-digital workflow that I was talking to JoeDoe about![]()
These are compact boards those of you with more than 4, I don't know what you're doing, ijs..

I keep both of them on the board on purpose, that way I can have one set as full octave down and the other one as a half clean/octave down blend. Think about it as a poor man's Octabvre MkiiiThat board looks like a ton of fun, mate! If anything, I'd suggest maybe swapping out the OC-5 or Subterranea (personally, I would swap the Boss) for something else, if you wanna get some extra flavour in your current board. It won't get the P&C on there, but at least you can add another sound that way, whatever your preference might be.
That's compact?

You want compact? Here's compact....although I guess it's actually a case not a board![]()
How's that dirtfixer with the MBD3? I thought that new clean blend was all the rage. How do you use it?
The Dirtfixer is unnecessary with the MBD v3, since they both have the same design on the clean blend. I’m using the Dirtfixer just as an EQ (and a way to patch other effects in, if desired) currently, which it is also excellent as.How's that dirtfixer with the MBD3?

Thank you for the reply, I figured as much.The Dirtfixer is unnecessary with the MBD v3, since they both have the same design on the clean blend. I’m using the Dirtfixer just as an EQ (and a way to patch other effects in, if desired) currently, which it is also excellent as.
Here's the latest incarnation, and definitely most compact, of my Compact Pedalboard:

None of the pedals are new, just re-configured for this application...and, to be completely honest, I don't think I'll ever use this pedalboard by itself; it's really designed to be used as the front end in conjunction with any number of additional pedalboards...so, in its most compact setup, there'd at least be a Soma COSMOS in the signal chain following this.
Finally got my Nano board up and running again, after moving to a Metro 16 back in March. Definitely compact!
This is my fly rig (along with a Two Notes Torpedo), and also the “bare essentials” board for times when I don’t need the bells and whistles.

I have one arriving today for my two-amp setup. Which side do you run where? My initial thought is to run the ISO line for my effected amp and the DIR line for the clean one- does that sound right?Its a splitter with phase shift and isolation when needed into two amps
