For anyone wanting to know:

I think I settled on this-

Tuner-revolt (3 channels clean, dirt drive)- revolt send- LS2- DS1- (other drives and FX later)- back in- revolt return-out to OC5-Carl martin- broughton mini fridge-

Essentially I make the Carl Martin and mini fridge an amp and cab set up that will DI to FOH or go into an amps return loop

Have to be careful with the gain staging, it sounds wonky if there is too much drive on the Carl Martin this late in the chain. But everything is blended and balanced

Sounds like a pretty killer setup! Would love to see a picture of this if you get a chance to upload one! :)

Doesnt matter what you have. If you have more than one thing in your signal chain then you always have to consider gain staging. Clipping something not designed specifically to sound good pushed really sounds awful.

@Ross Davies current set while I finish woodworking my future pedal board. I think I may just forgo the bass driver, the whole purpose of that was to split the signal to add more bottom to the modern drive channel, the reality is I seldom need that specific channel.

I love the ease of access, set it and forget it of the Revolt. I know I asked you about the OPUS, I really don't see the need as I'm plenty content with the current set up. If I get an opportunity I will most definitely check it out.

I'm glad I got a revolt again, Justin and the Two Notes team were extremely helpful.

Signal path is tuner-revolt-send to OC5- CE2W- return to revolt

Awesome! Looking great! I actually run a ReVolt Bass solo quite often as I it really punches through! Looking forward to seeing the final wood worked build! I think this is going to be epic :)
