Made and put together by Soulman (Soulman Pedalboards). I've ordered a Front Aux 3 (MC3/6/8 FrontAux 3 - Pedalnetics) from Pedalnetics, that's why there's some velcro showing in front of the Morningstar MC-6. Also ordered a Source Audio Midi Adapter to the C4, so I can start to control it with the Morningstar. After that, my board is complete! :D
 
How's this? Moving from a Voodoo Labs with more depth to a Pedaltrain made me have to get a little creative with the cables in the back. Not sure if I could've done anything better back there. Open to suggestions.

That steel leather is probably #1 on my sleeper pedal list. If you want definition to be heard, no problem. If only it had a frequency sweep control for the expanded notch. Nothing else like it that I know of.

Basically a new board since the last time I posted with the exception of the 360, Mr. Black Phaser, YYZ, Linden, and the tuner I think. The Empress, OC5, Grey Stache, Mr. Black Chorus, and Grease Juicer are new. I want to try an SA Spectrum which might replace the Grease Juicer if I like it enough.

I replaced my DC10 with a Strymon Zuma. More power per input and the power cables are easier to neatly manage. This is the tidiest board I've ever had.

Pray tell, why the two compressors?

Looks like three compressors: Smoothie, Spectra, Diamond. That's a lot of comp power!

Yes three! I have converted into a full blown compressor junkie.

I use different compressors for different flavors. Sometimes I have two on at a time sometimes even three...(got the idea from Tony Levin). Spectra Comp is set at subtle 3 band (before my OC-2 with the high pass), Smoothie is sustain and Diamond is old school finishing touch.

On my other bigger board I have an Omnicomp and Monocomp at opposite ends.
 
I've made some changes after a good deal of trial and error experimentation...and wanting more analog in the mix...(JohnK XOII)

Also realizing that it's better to not have everything on a board making things more flexible for evolving requirements...

The DI is for the Mantic Hulk SUB line coming off the #2 channel of the Source Audio C4. (DMC MicroPro controller not pictured)
