Show me your compact pedalboard setup

Sub board:
The Cali (still prefer the V1) and the Tonehammer are always on and both are running on 18V.
The whole board is powered by a VoodooLab PS1210 and the 4x4.

Cover band board (powered my a VoodooLab PP3 on a Rockboard Tres 3.0):
Under the hood there is a Broughton BBA as first pedal -> Peterson tuner -> One Control Mosquito Blender. From there it goes into the Cali V1 (18 volts) -> Empress EQ -> VoodooLab Dingbat interface -> FOH/IEM or amp. This is the main finger sound.

The Boss Core is in the One Control Blender's loop for bypass. The SA Spectrum is in the first effects loop of the Boss Core and is setup as Octaver and Enveloppe Filter. I can switch Loop1 of the Boss Core using the CTRL1 footswitch. This allows me to kick in the Spectrum Octave regardless of preset on the Core. ...Still figuring out if I prefer the internal Boss sounds or the SA tones.

I keep going back and forth from analog pedals to multi effects. Currently in “all-in-one” mode with Darkglass Anagram. Running off usb battery, cheap wireless in, 1/4” out to amp (last night was quilter bb800 and barefaced 210) pointed at the drummer basically , and xlr out to mixer.

That’s the Boss bcb-30x which provides good travel protection for that expensive Anagram and works just fine on stage.

Decided to sell my HX Stomp over the holidays (just didn't need everything it did) and replace it with the HX One. I also bought a Sushi Box FX Single Slice compressor to round out my revamped compact pedalboard for 2026.

How is the Sushi Box compressor doing? You like it? I have my eye on one.

It's just my first day messing around with it but I'm really liking it so far. I'm not an expert on compressors by any means. The only other compressor I have owned was the Seymour Duncan Studio and it was fine too but this Single Slice seems to be pretty easy to dial in what I'm looking for. Very subtle turns of the knobs go a long way from what I'm hearing which is great. I'm very happy with the purchase so far.
