Worship Bass Pedalboards

I mostly play in our youth services so I find places for all my effects except maybe the big muff.

I do put tape of the phat phuck name though.

Interesting. Of all my effects, I use the Muff the most. We have some songs where there's a loud bridge or chorus and the BBM really rocks. The others that I use with some regularity are sub-octave and phaser. The SansAmp is always on. I'll be using more, I'm sure, once I build my new board. I have a pile of pedals but no room for them currently.

While I wait for the opportunity I'll have to find a nice fuzz pedal, I have considered what I need to add to my board next.

I have thought a good reverb or delay pedal to fill in instrumental parts and to give ambiance, though I have never tried either type of effect on bass.
From clips I've heard on youtube, I am leaning more towards reverb...

I also looked at the EHX Freeze and think its a neat pedal as well. Similar to what a reverb pedal could do actually.

anyone have any experience with the Freeze and reverb?
 
I'll have to post a pic of my board later. It's a combined bass and electric guitar board, and in truth none of the pedals were bought for bass (okay, except maybe the strobe tuner so I could do easier intonation with my Buzz Feiten-ized bass). So far I've found myself using overdrive, octave and tremolo, each just for small parts of one or two songs. I mostly get my variety from right hand placement and pickup selection but it's nice to add a bit of seasoning with the pedals from time to time.
