Worship Bass Pedalboards

Stand In Your Love
 
So....new to boards and now down to either Chorus or Octave. Just Running tuner tone hammer and compressor right now looking for one last pedal
What one "needs" seems to be subjective and environmentally driven. I've honestly yet to play a service that a tuner > comp > preamp combo wouldn't have been more than sufficient. I dominantly use my SD Studio Bass comp and an Alpha Omega Ultra with OD at 9oclock and a Boogie Powerhouse 1000 IR on the DI.
Since your Tonehammer has the OD circuit, that rules out my next suggestion, which would have been a mild OD to punch through a little. Of the pedals you've listed, I'd go for a chorus. If your services rely heavily on acoustic guitar, then having that modulated wash of sound can bring a very 3D feel to things.
 
How's it going folks. New here and sharing my board.

-Aguilar Tone Hammer < Zoom B3N < Aguilar Octamizer < EHX Knockout < Ernie Ball Jr (Korg Pitch Black +)
-Powered by the Donner DP-1 mounted underneath
-Pedaltrain Jr board
-Fender Deluxe Active Precision Special PF Bass

The Zoom B3N there's only one patch I use which I created to add Delay, Reverb, and tremelo.

Currently my church DI uses a REDDI for the past 5 years. Love the sound of it.

Soon to be changes:
-Getting rid of the Korg tuner to swap out with TC Electronics Polytune (comes in this afternoon)
-Adding the EHX MicroSynth for some nice extra tones
 
Not sure if it counts but I can't see using anything other than my helix lt. I have some presets for different amps based on song choice. I had a mesa subway di and loved it but was sick of changing settings between songs. Both went xlr to the board and to the effects return on a gk700rb-ii into a custom 1x15 neo cab with a horn.

I may try my Sadowsky Pre/DI on my board instead of the JDI. Just for fun.
Now that I am set for basses, I need something to do to scratch the itch. I don't want to go fully down the effects rabbit hole, but I think I still have my YYZ and Big Muff pedals somewhere (not so much for church but for the cover band) so we'll see. I'm really not liking my Korg synth and am looking that direction for something potentially new more then effects.
 
I have to say, I really want to try everything you have on your board. I don’t know what the blue submarine pedal is though, but I want to try it anyway :D
Lol. It took me a long time to put this combination together. Years of buying/trying/selling/swapping stuff before I finally found the right combination for me. The blue one is a Southampton Ictineo. It my new secret sauce. There is a harder-to-find Broughton version as well. The original is called the "Submariner," but I forget who makes that. Makes everything sound stronger and more powerful, and there are incredible tone-shaping capabilities. It's hard to get a bad sound out of it. I read somewhere that someone compared it to a studio console preamp of some kind, but I forget which. I dunno. To me it's just good, pure, clean power. Not an amp-sim of any kind.
