Yeah, don't know why I didn't think of them before. I go to the one 30min away fairly regularly. Might head there this weekend, actually. I have some credit there that I need to turn into something.
Sorry about the bloated link, but does anyone know if these work with like Donner/Mooer/Eno/Malekko whatever pedals? Any better offers that $4.30 for one, or is there something else?

Stupid question: is there some sort of effects switching box? I just want a pedal that switches between two different pedals, maybe with a master bypass, and preferably passive (using no power). I'm sure it's out there, I just have no idea what to call it, and the Loop Master website terminology (I'm sure it's all standard, I'm just terrible at it) confuses me.
I dont know the name off the top of my head, but most famous people with hit songs do it. Look up black keys rig run down he explains what you're talking about.
I say famous because it's kinda expensive and generally it's used to recreate exact sounds. And as dan says in the vid, some guy behind stage runs half of it. Though if you were less demanding than him it probably wouldn't come to that haha.
To go even further, Neil Young has his "Whizzer" and it is a loop system that lets him switch settings on his amp on the fly. It rotates the knobs for him.
Amps like the Traynor bassmaster can be tricky to use for guitar at truly low volumes because neither channel is really ideal. There's the bright channel, which has a bright cap across the volume pot- if you set it really low, the sound is tremendously brittle. Set it at about 6 or 7 there's a nice tonal balance with some edge but you're at full volume with thick overdrive and the neighbors calling the cops. The "normal" channel doesn't vary much in EQ through the sweep, but it's positively dull for guitar especially at the lowest volumes. 10 minutes of modding will get you to fendery land though...
I have a bunch of those, they work on most pedals with side jacks, provided the jacks are at similar heights off the ground. What sucks about them is that they force you to stagger the pedals up and down by over an inch, which eats up a lot of space on a pedal board. Also, QC is poor, I've had a couple snap way too easily and two that were just too crooked to use.
Switched my whole board over to EBS flat patch, much cheaper than the hosa couplers and very well built. They also allow you to take up less space on a pedal board.

It's still my favorite album of theirs. Got it about a month before it came out and was just astounded by it. There really was nothing else that sounded like it at the time. Essential.
These guys are level and staggered by design. I'm not planning on keeping them probably, but they serve a stand in examples until I get my mooer pedals if I do.
How many channels do you want? Did you want a buffer or boost? I know you said passive, and that's cool but with multiple channels I'd suggest a buffer or boost. That's the big issue with mine. But I'd build you whatever you'd want/need.

Also if you order loop master, they make an excellent product but be prepared for a wait so long you'll probably not need or want it by the time you get it. Like 4-5 months for a loop pedal.
Not trying to knock loop master, they do make awesome stuff. Just making light the reality of their turn around.
My night tonight: two grown men, name calling, denying their own participation in the name calling and general *****ing. I'm fairly immature for being 27. But **** some of these guys hurt my head with how childish they are. All I'm thinking is, "just make the ****ing bread and mind your own business". You'd think that was asking for the wheel reinvented.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I'm trying different board configurations to maximize space, and once I figure it out, I'll let you know if I need something.
Fuzz I ordered shipped same day the guy says, and it's a small town post office (like 4 hours from here), but it sounds like he just bought the label and hasn't shipped it?
So I know the bass micro synth is like several pedals in one, but is there an actual list of circuits used? I like the idea of the pedal but no presets seems kinda lame.
I was thinking like you could get a mooer micro chain that replicates the BMS but let's you turn on and control each section a semi preset alternative. Octave - slow gear - fuzz - filter?
