Sub-nano pedalboards

With the Malekkos the power input is on the side of the unit right hand at the pedal-switch end. Maybe not a dealbreaker but it makes for easier wiring and pedal spacing if they are on the top or at least at the top end i.m.o.

Thank for the info. I prefer top mounted power jacks best too, but my TC pedals are side powered (top end side), so its not necessarily a deal breaker either.

EDIT: on second thought - yeah, I really don't want side/switch end mounted power jacks. Thanks again for pointing that out.

Just finished this; a bass pedal-board in a tin. (Only 28cm X 17cm X 7cm).
Pedals:
  • FZONE PT-01 Tuner
  • Digitech Bad Monkey
  • Ditto Looper Gold

Here's a diagram to show the signal chain:

Work in progress, so it doesn't look like much yet... This piece of Poplar is 6 by 11-5/16; might need to go a little bit bigger because I'm thinking of going COG T65 for the octave spot, but with the Zoom pedal providing noise gate, compression, tuner and OD, this 3-pedal setup covers my needs pretty well. Powered by 1spot, cabled with EBS.

I’ve just ordered a Pedaltrain PB2 pedal booster/riser to use as a tiny board for my Fairfield Barbershop and Accountant. I want to power it with a Pedaltrain Volto underneath. I think i had this idea by another user on here but i can’t seem to find the particular thread/post anymore. Anyone has experience with using a pedal booster as a stand alone board?

Not enough clearance under a Pedaltrain Booster for a Volto, but you could probably find some rubber feet to make it work.

Allright this is what i’ve come up with. Probably gonna put some better feet under it at some point but for now i’m pretty happy with the result. Please tell me what you think!
