Re: Show us your pedalboard
It's very good indeed. Once you figure out how to use it, despite the efforts of the instruction manual to be as confusing as possible. I would say the drum loops are actually not as good and varied as the RC-10R, but other factors make up for that, like the extra footswitch and the endless workflow options.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
You know your pedalboard is a little over the top when you leave playing to go to the kitchen for a bit. When you come back it’s jamming with itself and sounds like a Brian eno record.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Went a bit Walrus heavy, but they make great stuff... pretty happy with how my Bunnings pedalboard turned out. Paint job isn’t anywhere near good, but I got bored after about my 15th coat trying to get it right!

Wow, classy! Seriously shoegaze-worthy. The purple matches your Jazzmaster - such a nice touch. Would love to test out those Death By Audio verbs.
Strange looking patch cables, what are they?

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Yeap been on a shoegaze, noise, ambient kind of kick lately. The DBA stuff is awesome for generally fucking shit up, gets some cool noises going. Picked up a Crave synth after that Behringer PSA in the other thread, really looking forward to running it through the effects!
Cables are rockboard that I got from rockshop. I assume the sonic boffins wouldn’t use them but they do the job. Plus purple board with golden connectors matches purple guitar with golden guard, and I’m a shallow MF!

Not at all, aesthetic considerations are very important!HackSaw wrote: ↑Wed Jan 27, 2021 5:50 am Yeap been on a shoegaze, noise, ambient kind of kick lately.

You got this pedal board from Bunnings? What was it originally supposed to be? Looks really practical.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
I noticed my Modtone Powerplant adds some noise when mounted directly under my pedals but not when it's away from them (still plugged in obviously). I wonder if insulating it like this would help. I think it's from the built in transformer. If you move the power supply towards and away from the pedals you can hear the hum come and go. Pretty annoying, as I always thought it was supposed to be better to have a built in transformer rather than a wallwart supply. At least the wallwart keeps the transformer away from the pedals.murky wrote: ↑Sat Jan 16, 2021 11:06 pmGet some furniture feet from Bunnings to lift the back up. Velcro and cable tie the Coiks underneath so that it’s insulated from the board - don’t use the screw mounting plate - you can sometimes end up creating a ground loop if you scratch through the insulation coating in the screw holes - it’s pretty uncommon, but I’ve seen it a couple of times.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Oh right, gotcha. I thought it was some prefabricated metal thing that was maybe intended for something else. Good job looks great.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
I bought one of those cable kits. Unfortunately they were very hit and miss. Half of them were dead once made and the rest were very noisy and didn't cope well with being moved. The Rockboard fixed length gold flat patch cables are actually really good quality though.
Great board by the way, fantastic choice of pedals and really cool build too!
