Worship Bass Pedalboards

It's funny. I sold my Noble after getting my Mantle. They are both great in their own ways, but I tend to dislike when gear sits around unused. I'll be interested to hear what you think once you have both in hand.
it was a 1000 watt class D EV model the worship leader said they recently got for around $500. Maybe this one on sale.
Can't decide if I want the new Bass Muff or the Double Dragon 
Well this is talkbass...why not get both!Can't decide if I want the new Bass Muff or the Double Dragon
I knew this would be the answerWell this is talkbass...why not get both!
I got a decent deal on Double Dragon and went with it though.
We are doing a song "Forever YHWH" in 'E', and from listening to the bass isolated on MultiTracks... looks like I"ll be using the Moog Messenger sooner than I thought. Bassboard feels great with those sub-bass notes. Couldn't get those low notes on my 4 string P-Bass anyway.
I decided to use a mic stand for my iPad because it shook too much mounted on the stand. Also... it's easier to cable manage... which I'm anal about.
Oh BTW... for those that don't like Wall Wart power supplies... The Messenger works fine connected to a CIOKS power supply. Just remember to set it to 12v, and use the red connector cables... which is center positive.
My practice set up.... I'll be able to have a clean stage on Sunday with this setup.
Case I got for it is Gator ICON DJ Controller Case medium...

Looks awesome brother! I got my stand yesterday and got di box and case coming this weekend.

Even if it was logically straight forward, mad sense, and obvious... I was still crossing my fingers when pushing the power button.
I didn't even bother unboxing the wall wart... just left in the box. I was set on having clean cable managed setup, so I expected to work fine. If it killed it, it was still under warranty.
Well…I just joined the Mantle Club!
It arrives Tuesday. Will report back.
Today's assemblage playing at a smaller church plant. Playing there next week as well. They had their high school and college team up, then there was me on bass providing the adult supervision.
Thanks to @rcmbass for the tip on trying the La Bella IMA strings, sounded teriffic on the Lull P5.
I got two comments after the service: 1) I used the soaring Shea Wooten bass line from Elevation's Jesus Be The Name. The song is new to me and I like it a lot. 2) The seafoam green color of my bass was popular. LOL.

Got to use the Messenger today for first time. Only used it on Jesus be the name. Gosh I love that song! I know I have some more things to dial in but i think it went well. I use bank 4 preset 8 which is just super subby bass and tweaked the filter to get a little grit going. Definitely some things rumbling in the building lol. No comments from congregation but drummer and guitar player came by to ask " what's this thing". I'm gonna enjoy this toy for sure
Awesome song and report. The Moog is addictive. Pictures please!
I was leading today but the bass player forgot his board so he just plugged directly into a RNDI and it sounded fantastic. Punchy and clear. I was happy and sad about this all at same time 
On a side note, @projectapollo has inspired me to look for a Lightspeed.

We have @NickyBass to blame for this Lightspeed trouble. It really is the best saturator I've heard so far. Pricey, side jacks, but lovely tone. Not much of a discount for used, either. Made in the USA. I'm still on the fence between the Morning Glory Clean and Lightspeed. The Lightspeed requires no clean blend so it's easier to dial in.I was leading today but the bass player forgot his board so he just plugged directly into a RNDI and it sounded fantastic.
