Show me your compact pedalboard setup

[Mr. voodoobass]

That's a cool looking setup and board!
What's the top (silver) pedal surface made of?
And how are you using the triple switch?

Any pics with the hood up?

It’s a piece of 3mm alu sheet. Here’s a pic from under. The triple switch is for the h9(on/off, hotswitch, up/down presets).

Only change in years was to drop a second OD pedal, and replace it with a tuner

About all you need in life, nice setup.

Grab and go Nano+ board for all my stoner vibe needs.

This is the current state of the board.

Polytune 3 -> Cali76 CB -> Hudson Electronics AP-II -> Empress ParaEQ MKII Deluxe -> Horrothia Type-One Chorus -> Pinstripe Pedals LWDI. All on an Aclam Pedalboard with a CIOKS PSU hiding underneath.

VOVOX Cables to and from the board, and Revelation Cable Co patch cables on the board.

I've wondered about these boards. Curious, could you eventually fit a few more pedals by using the opposite rails for the adjacent pedals? In order to snug them up next to each other.
Otherwise it seems like a waste of pedal board real estate. Unless of course someone has wide feet.

I really enjoy them because you do not need adhesives to fasten them down so its easier to move things around and makes flipping pedals easier. you can use opposite rails to get pedals closer together and I have done that in the past, but since I only have 6 pedals, I opted to space them out a little bit.

 

[Naack]

I should add, they make a version that doesn't have the gap in the middle so it makes getting pedals tighter together a lot easier.

Ok, finished my small diy build. It’s a bit rough as a build, but works like I wanted it to. Took some parts from a big old board I had a long time ago.

How are you powering your board?

 

[klokker]

Just reworked mine a bit. I guess it's not "compact" but it's pretty small anyway. The headphone amp is just stuck on there and runs off a battery, I use it to warm up before the show, and I run my hi pass at 24volts, so it's not hooked up to my power supply. So far, so good.

And I changed it again. I must say that I love what the Ashdown OriginAL adds, however, it makes the board bigger than what I'd like, so I'm not sure it will stay or if I'm going back to three pedals only. But, for now, I love the sound. And it is nice to have a DI.

 

[sloppy_phil]

@javi_bassist I would say that if you're loving the sound, but want to possibly remove a pedal, the tuner could be swapped for a clip-on. I did something similar with my board, which had overhanging pedals, and went for a TC PolyClip. It's been 3-4 months now, and I'm quite happy with how it's turned out. If I need to mute my signal, I can do so at my bass, and still tune silently, so functionally nothing has changed all that much.

And now all the pedals fit properly on the board, and thus properly in its case

My contribution... The result of having spent too many hours on this thread looking at ya'lls stuffs (and just shaking my head at the big boards on the other thread). Sometimes I'll fit my MBD2 on there as well but I feel silly with so many dirt pedals. Does anyone else use dirt pedals for their gain/eq nuance as well?

This is it..

This covers a ton of ground & sounds pretty darn amazing:
