Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Sup fellas. I'm not falling behind again. You guys are too hard to catch and if I don't read everything I feel like a dirty little cheater.
I got these kinda cool headphone I can plug directly into my bass. They don't sound half bad considering I got the bass specific ones. Nice for those 4 am practice sessions when my kid is sleeping.

I like them. Nice little battery powered unit. You can also use them as normal headphones.

Southwest Terror Fest day 2
Hiked to Romero Pools in the Santa Catalina mtns just north of town in the afternoon, about 6 steep rocky miles total. Was nice. Cleaned up, met up with pals, some food and drink, and got to 191 Toole just as Phoenix death metallers Gatecreeper were finishing up. Missed Warmonger and Swamp Wolf. This earlier "Matinee" show was centered on grindy fast deathy hardcore stuff.
908 ^
Gal had a nice black Ibanez PJ thing, sounded dead solid.
Immortal Bird ^
Bleak ^
Landmine Marathon^
Call of the Void^
Dropdead ^
My personal faves were Immortal Bird and Landmine Marathon. Big crowd. Active pit.
On to the late show at Club Congress. Missed Naught whose set coincided with Dropdead. The place was super packed.
Graves at Sea^
We're heavy as fvck. And then
Bongripper^ just leveled the place. The whole hotel building was vibrating with the monolithic riffage. It was so packed I couldn't hope to get near the front but you couldn't escape the doom anywhere in the building, damn that was powerful.
Sleep tonight!!! I mean the band.

Pedals bro, pedals!!
Damn. I have FEA and Brimstone envy.
Builder emailed me yesterday again and I didn't see it until this morning. 8ohm faitals were located and purchased! Assuming they arrive in the next few days, my cab should get shipped in the next week or so!
Going to take apart the Druid fuzz to look for an internal trim pot, beatboy is already programmed for butterfly puncher and sexo y violencia
I've been tryin' to tell y'all that Southwest Terror Fest is badd ass and all y'alls should come check it out. I'm about to see Goya, Bros of the Sonic Cloth, and fuggin SLEEP bitches!!!
Would have if I could afford it.
Goya wasn't really my thing, but would love to see Bros of the Sonic Cloth, and Sleep are always awesome.
Oh in sacrilegious news I've been acoustic all week. Just now finished getting some 12-56 chromes on there. Just as loud it seems, and better depth and no buzz. Maybe a little high end roll off around that buzz freq but I don't miss it as it stands out so clear.
So, I have one spot left on my power supply. (Yes, I know I don't NEED to fill every power spot, but I really WANT to!) What effect should I get? I'm trying to get something new, as I have my core sound covered. Here's what I DON'T need:
Dirt (of any kind)
Envelope/Wah
Delay (Have a DOD Digital Delay that will suit me fine)
Synth/Octave (Got a Digitech Bass Synth Wah)
Tuner
Gate
HPF
Here's what I'm thinking:
Chorus? (Maybe? I'm kinda on the fence, don't know how often I'd use it and it's not a big sound for me.)
Compressor? (Or would my dirt take care of it? How COULD I use compression? Enlighten me?)
Flanger/Phaser? (Have a Joyo Flanger that's on my guitar board, used to be on my bass board and worked great.)
Anything else?
Suggestions for anything would be appreciated. Thanks as always, gents.
