My First Pedalboard!

Nice! You could take the wireless off as you don’t need to “stomp” it and make room for the Muff

Doesn’t the Helix includes some nice muffs too?

I could, but I’d rather have everything on the board.
There’s ‘just enough’ room to velcro the receiver to the left of the Helix which gives enough space to fit the Muff.

Yes, it has a more than decent muff effect, but since I already have the real thing…
I need a few extra longer cables to wire the board up fully so there’s plenty of time to experiment before making a decision.

It’s basically coming down to a choice between fitting the bass big muff deluxe or a mini expression pedal + ditto looper. First world problems. :slight_smile:

Sounds like the board is too small. Lolol

Some Templeboard owners remove the handles on the sides for more space. You can easily unscrew them.

Always :rofl:

I want to keep the pedal real estate limited to this footprint. The Helix and compressor are the only real mandatory elements so anything above and beyond that has to earn its space.

I don’t need anything above what’s already there at the moment.

Have you tried to mute your bass input on your Virtual mixer?

Now there is a pedal I can respect. I have the Boss RC30 which for some strange reason they discontinued. Was expensive but worth every penny.

I think I’m done for now.

Signal Path:
Line 6 G10 (wireless)
Empress Bass (Compressor)
Spaceman Polaris (Overdrive)
Deluxe Bass Big Muff Pi (Fuzz)
Line 6 HX Stomp XL (Multi effects - Headphone amp - DAI)

PSU: CIOKS DC7

I am really intrigued with that Hx stomp but it’s just a little out of my price range.

Yeah, the stomp isn’t cheap.
But it is good value given the build quality, sound quality, connectivity and ridiculous amount of effects built in.

It does have its weaknesses though. The send / return (to loop in other pedals) isn’t transparent which was very disappointing, the Octaver is a bit ‘meh’ and it doesn’t have a differential output DI (although it does have impedance balanced DI out).

Thanks for the input. Good to know, have only read about them so every bit of info on them is appreciated.

Added a new chorus pedal yesterday that my brother built for me…I’ll let you guess which one! :slight_smile:

I don’t think I’ve ever posted my pedalboard.

  • Donner Tuner
  • Tech 21 SansAmp bass driver
  • EHX bass micro synth (synth, but mostly use as an octave pedal)
  • EHX bass Big Muff Pi (fuzz)
  • Joyo Double Thruster (over drive)
  • Donner (noise gate)
  • Flamma Envelope
  • BOSS Bass Chorus
  • Joyo Classic Flanger
  • Joyo Digital Delay

SansAmp is always on. Everything is pretty obvious as a stand alone pedal other than the micro synth which I use as an octave pedal most of the time. When I combine pedals it’s for a synth sound. Usually a combination of the micro synth with the fuzz or overdrive and the flanger or chorus or envelope filter. The delay is just there for fun. I’ve tried a handful of other synth pedals and octave pedals. This is what has been working for me lately.

Mine’s pretty simple but it does everything I could need for the foreseeable future.

Guitto Pedalboard
Donner DP-1 Power supply
Polytune
Zoom B2 Four
MXR Compressor
Lekato wireless WS-100

The Zoom is the workhorse for most of my stuff. I use the Polytune for its “tune all the strings at once” feature as well as because when I activate it, it cuts the signal the rest which allowed me to switch guitars quickly before I got the wireless thingy. I keep the MXR compressor around for times when I want to bypass the Zoom and just have a simple compressor in place to experiment with the controls.

The Guitto board is great. I like that you lock the pedals into it with little friction mounts instead of velcro and such. It’s solid enough considering I never travel with my kit but I don’t know if it would work for a touring type situation.
