Show us your SGT-DI rig

Now I’m pondering a new pedalboard with an Ampeg SGT-DI to replace a Broughton Fliptop and a Menatone King of the Britains. I see a classified sale coming up to offset costs.
Ok, studio rig edit #3: Found the 2nd edit didn't offer much stability when tapping the foot switches so moved the adjustable stand to the side, now much more stable w/ easy access to everything. Plus, I added the OptoComp, which I use in my clean signal chain.
I'll report back on Tuesday on how well the SGT-DI does in it's first studio run.

What case is it? And how do you deal connecting the guitar cable and power line?
It’s a Pedaltrain Metro Max with the case. I need to lift the pedalboard out of the case, and then plug the Noble into AC power. The Noble powers the rest.
The board goes tuner into JHS into Cali76 into SGT into Noble. I arranged it as you see so the output jacks would be accessible at the back or sides in case I feel like taking the signal from an earlier stage and calling it a day.
My 1st studio session w/ the SGT-DI last night was a success. The aim was an overdriven B15 tone to an R&B tune & it delivered. Very natural sounding to me and there are many other tone shaping options still to explore.
Do you turn on the X7 and the BK7 at the same time? I assume the SGT-DI is on all the time.
I haven't received any early mixes yet. We're adding keyboards this afternoon and lead guitar in June. Hopefully I can get a sample shortly.

How are you running both preamps? Do you run anything thru effects send/return? You DI out of your SGT DI or noble?
