I've pretty much settled on this set up, got gigs and rehearsals down with both bands and it seems just right.

Show me your compact pedalboard setup
- Thread starter garmenteros
- Start date
well I guess this is what I would call a compact board the first gen version had the voodoo labs 4X4 and SA neuro hub underneath but it didn't hold everything in one unit so I had to revise my design witch wound up a little bigger but easier to transport.
Some great boards on here.
Mine is mounted on a pedaltrain JR with a T-Rex chameleon power supply mounted underneath.
The board has two signal chains which are blended together.
Chain A: Line 6 G70 -> MXR Bass Comp -> Mosquite Blender -> Sansamp Bass Di
Chain B: Line 6 G70 -> MXR Envelope Filter -> Zoom B3 -> MXR Bass Overdrive -> MXR Fuzz -> Mosquite Blender -> Sansamp Bass DI
The Loopi tap tempo controls the Bass B3.
Some notes about this board.
- I run the dual chain as I always want a solid clean bass sound with my fx just added to it.
- The Line 6 G70 serves a multi purpose. Its a great wireless guitar input that has a jack in on the right side in case of emergencies. It is also a very good tuner and an A B C switch. I use it to flick between AC outputs and ABC outputs (ie. Chain B input off or on).
- I typically take my output to my amp from the sansamp output and DI to the desk from the sansamp.
- In case of board failure I can also get a DI out from the Line 6 G70 at the front of the chain.

I'll finally get to use this most recent variant of my board in a few weeks...pretty pumped
Here is my board.
Pedaltrain nano with powerbank + stepup trans underneath.
I'm keep thinking which one is better.
VT bass is before comp(parallel)
VT bass is after comp(parallel)
VTbass has tons of compressed sound itself.
somewhat good but sometimes its too much.

How's the Tender Octave? Been looking for a good octave pedal that can replicate both upper and sub octaves to pair with my MXR BFD for synth tones.
I love it personally.
it is a digital octave so tracking is unbelievable (it can track everything even my 5th string
). tone may not good as analog octave but sub tone is good enough and upper tone is ok with effector.only drawback is... there is a latency between dry and processed signal. its about 50ms I think....
it is ok what I used for but you better know...

Feels silly considering this compact. But it has less going on than many other boards in this thread.... Plus a whole lot more!
Can someone with a PT Nano do me a favor? Can you measure the width of the gap in between the two rails? Im brainstorming an idea and need to see if a specific cable head will fit through it.
My current pedalboard, love the sound I can get out of this!

That's an interesting setup. How is the effects chain setup?
The gap between the two rails is ~1 1/16" and the interior width when you flip it over is ~3 15/16"... oh and @Dave Hill yes, a Cioks DC5 fits under a PT Nano+ with ease... enjoy!

I'm quite happy with it!
The Fishman and the SCP are used as preamps for my DB and Bass VI going into the Tonebone. I've got the Zoom in the loop of the Tonebone so I can completely bypass the effects. Output goes to the tuner, followed by the DMM before it hits my MB200.
Korg tuner > Aftershock > Enigma > Phase 90 > GEB-7 > MXR M87
