    @Gassage sorry, just saw it on the controller...why the footswitch then?

    EDIT: PS, lovely, lovely setup mate.

    JT, to switch channels. I think I can also do it off the Mark L's via the latch contoller in there, but it's pretty irrelevent. If the Midi lead (the RAT foot controller uses one to the RAT rack unit) isn't plugged in then the RAT won't work anyway. So I tend to leave it plugged in, and use the loop to switch on and off.

    As you lot prob get bored by this, I'm gonna do a little update and am in process of a vid guide to the Wall of Analogue.

    I am so not doing any more on it for a LONG time so crave my indulgence.

    Gone is the MXR Delay and the Mod Pro (sorry to see both go) and in is the delicious Dynacord CLS22 rotary simulator, which is quite stupendous, and has been fixed for me by our very own Mr @juansolo ;

    There's 12 loops in the MLC Rack Switcher (with power conditioned PSU), all controlled by the Axcess FX MIDI floor Board.

    Chain of fx:

    Vol pedal
    Cornish OC1 Comp
    Cornish P1 Muff
    Rack RAT
    Jester
    Tube Driver 1
    Tube Driver 2
    Cornish ST2 EQ
    Boss CE1
    Electric Mistress (in Lehle Parallel L looper to remove volume drop)
    Tube Vibe
    TC2290 Rack Delay
    Dynacord
    Cornish Tape Echo Sim
    Lehle Amp Switcher into
    A: 1970 Hiwatt
    B: Lazy J 40 + Cab
    C: 1958 Fender Deluxe






    No MT-2?

    Do you actually do anything with all that stuff besides replaying the guitar solo to "Time" every evening before bed?

    Best comment ever
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    Managed to finally get around to trimming down my board and getting a picture. Only things that will change is that the Whammy won't be part of the board, it's just for fun at home and I have a Source Audio EQ on route! :-)

    image

    Next up is to decide on how to board them, I'm thinking two mini boards, one for drives and one for effects and control them all from a controller on the floor. Or simple and put them all on one board...but it'll be big with something like a G-2 on there too. Not sure!

    PS, worth mentioning that there were about 10 more pedals in this picture as of a fortnight ago, so it's really minimal in comparison, even though it doesn't look like it! I blame @CustomPedalBoards Chris for his advice on slimming down! Feels good to get shot of some stuff though and really get down to what I need.

    Compact! The board is the rear door of the amp flightcase, so it all folds up near and tidy for transportation!

    strymon brigadier
    korg pitchblack custom

    all powered by the cooks adam, which is an excellent unit, really impressed with the build and simplicity of it.
