Worship Bass Pedalboards

Yeah, I like having my sound wherever I go too. My church has a wireless and a Sansamp, which would work great. But, I bring my own board with me. Its all set up to plug and play, plus it sounds fantastic.
We got Stomps for church so we wouldn't have to bring our own stuff all the time, and so when people may be gone and someone sits in, there's a good, basic sound all set for them. I even went the Stomp route for my personal rig. The guitar player never got happy with it so he continues to bring his own boards (one for his electric and one for his acoustic) and the Stomp for him is being used by a 2nd guitar player we're training/working into the rotation, so it is fulfilling it's purpose. I like bringing my in ears, iPad and bass. Everything else I need is there. It sounds fine and it's so easy to just show up, plug in and play.
That's the dream! Would love tossing everything in one bag and having minimal setup/teardown. Unfortunately my tastes are more expensive than the church can fund so I've always brought my own stuff.
It's not as difficult as you might think. One of these does the trick:

Costs like $8 and you can easily mount it beneath your board, powering a Khan and CIOKS (or any two mains-powered devices). Then all you need to do is run an extension or IEC cable into the input of the splitter.
I used those when I was running a Novo 24, but it doesn't play well with a Nano.It's not as difficult as you might think. One of these does the trick:

I let myself be OK with the Stomp. I knew the church couldn't swing a REDDI< Empress Bass Compressor and Empress Para EQ Deluxe.
IMHO, I've never found anything that can out perform the tone a Noble DI gives me. The Noble is expensive and the waitlist is long, and Noble DIs are worth it. Another nice one is the Broughton Studio One, which allows me to get a nice tone in the IEMs quickly with the High and Low Pass filters.
That's a bummer. I'm guessing it's because the Pedaltrain rails are so wide so the CIOKS takes up all the space in the recess? If that's true, couldn't one mount a splitter on the bottom of a rail or are the feet too shallow for that? Other options would be to raise the feet or leave the splitter attached to whatever power cable/extension cord ones uses.
I couldn't fit a Khan and a Stomp on a nano anyway. They fit on a Nano+ but no room to mount cords under the board with a Cioks. It's fine, I am enjoying the gain knob on the Finally. I can push the tube, not something I could do with the Khan.
If it had aux in, I would've already bought it because of you!
This week's pedal set-up.... Bought a used POG from local guitar shop. I do like the octaver in the HX One, so we'll see how the POG works out, instead. HX One presets include Glitz reverb and the Memory Man Chorus, again.
well you know I basically copied you, this is a nano+ with a cioks dc7 underneath.the only thing I don't like is the big power cable loop out front but I haven't figured out how to take care of that yet and in all honesty it works, just not real pretty.
I feel your pain. I've got a MONO Lite+ (same size as Nano+), but it's full of pedals so I keep my Khan in the outer pocket of the board's case when I travel. And then I set it on the floor next to the board when I set up. Slightly more work and slightly less clean than mounting it to the board. But this is what works best for me.

Great minds
. Swapping a bunch of stuff out on the big board so this is what I'm rolling with this weekend. Fits with no room to spare on a Mono Lite.I could see myself with that rig, but my GLXD won't fit.Great minds

My old church provided a REDDI, Origin Cali76 Bass, and some other nice pedals. New one doesn't have the budget so I have built my own board.
