Re: Show us your pedalboard
Reworked pedalboard.
PR Jr got ditched for a Novo - allows two rows of pedals with a bypass switcher. Cioks Switchmode power supply upgrade (I’m calling it, the new Cioks “Future Power Generation” are the best out there - head an shoulders above any toroidal - you can sit a Wah on them with no emf noise) - and all voltages available at every outlet. And wiring done properly for once.

Reminds me of my NZ Post days as a technician in the telephone exchanges where all the bundles of cables were neatly laced with waxed string! Some as thick as your thigh!

What model Timmy is that? The bass and gain knobs are the wrong way round.murky wrote: ↑Sun Oct 03, 2021 5:13 pm Reworked pedalboard.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
It’s a V1 - pre external clipping switch. Must be at least 15 years old now I think…..

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Where have yoou got the switch set? I confess I use all 3 settings on mine regularly.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Had to open her up to look - one up, one down, so asymmetrical. Makes sense - I much prefer the SD1 clipping over say a TS. That said, kind of moot as I mainly use it for a slight clean boost and bass cut into a JTM45.
As an aside, when did these get so expensive - no way it’s worth the used prices out there.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
That makes sense. Asymmetrical is up on my switch. I think of that as a Marshall flavour. Down is Tweed flavour and the middle gives OD boost ; like a big ballad solo tone.murky wrote: ↑Mon Oct 04, 2021 9:20 amHad to open her up to look - one up, one down, so asymmetrical.

That's how I think of it anyway.
Supply and demand I guess. Though MXR make them now so they shouldn't be hard to find anymore.
But ours are Cochrane originals
I replaced all my ODs with a King of Tone clone. 3 days later, Timmy joined it. Great pedal!

Re: Show us your pedalboard
I have gone through a fair few OD pedals, but the Timmy remains a constant on my board. It just does what it does soooo well.Slowy wrote: ↑Mon Oct 04, 2021 10:12 amThat makes sense.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Found a pic of my first serious “gigging board” circa early 2000’s.
Daisy chain for the 9v. Under the midi footswitch is a TC G-Major. Everything running into the front of whatever amp I had at the time (that’s right, rack output into guitar input ). Cluster f*ck of wallwarts sitting right next to the wireless unit. I think the DI was there to break one of many ground loops - but then again, maybe not.
Took me ages to realise the way I had it set up was a complete pile of shite.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Is that an original GigRig switcher thing? If so...impressive. You don't muck about do you.

Re: Show us your pedalboard
Then this…..the big one…..pedals back on the board.
Had major arguments with TC over how noisy the G-system was - digital whistling and s*it….of course they denied…..but turns out they were wrong…..
