    Not quite a flyrig but just what I need for when I'm focussing on playing guitar rather than playing with far too many toan distractions.
    Really loving the ToneX, the Condor HiFi is great as an EQ and boost and distortion with some sneaky modulation to give. bit of wobble to the sound. I love the Halo and 8 presets are enough while the Cloudburst changes character a lot over its decay range.
    The RC-5 because every practice board should have a looper and the rhythm feature 'inspires' to a degree... but mainly because the stereo in/out means I don't have to find a Stereo TRS plug to 2 mono sockets adapter. Damn you Strymon (and Chase Bliss).
    All powered by a Harley Benton ISO-AC10 Pro.

    In the past week I’ve gone fully 180 in my live setup that I’ve used for a couple of years now.

    I moved to the QC after having a run of gigs that were a) not very local, and b) were a pain in the arse for stage access/setup - it was no fun carrying two guitars, pedalboard, head, 2x12 cab, guitar stand and bag of cables across the entire Belladrum festival, to then be told I had to use the amp that was already on stage!

    The simplicity offered by the QC was great, being able to just turn up and plug in with just the main volume to think about. I was 100% happy with the tones/feel etc, until my rhythm guitarist recently moved to a small valve amp setup, and his tone was just so much fuller and dynamic. I was being drowned out completely.

    So, a recent guitar acquisition required some funds to be free’d up so I sold the QC and have gone back to “pedals”



    Wah is central as I’m a lefty (only for guitar!) but I wanted the headphone jack on the Stomp
    accessible. This is the closest to the left side of the board I could get, lol.

    I’ve got the Constable in FX Loop 1 of the Stomp and the other drives (minus fuzz) in FX Loop 2. This way I can use the Constable as a pre-amp when I’m running into my SD-170 or if I want to use my Bad Cat at any point, I can route this into amp FX Loop (bypassing the Bad Cat preamp).

    The Guv’nor has the C22 mod, and running that into the Constable is just pure heaven! Vastly under-rated MIAB.

    My rhythm guitarist was raging when I plugged this in, ha ha!

    My latest board with the newly acquired Maxon Sonic Distortion, which is immense in girth & very responsive to guitar volume. Amazing 'old school' pedal. 
    The chain is, Tuner-Fuzz-Timmy-Scarlet-Page-Maxon-SLDrive-Dyna Comp-Ultraviolet-Echoplex-Verb.
    Mostly used in pairs or three's. e.g.
    Timmy+Dyna Comp
    Page+SLDrive
    Scarlet Tunic+Dyna comp
    Maxon+Echoplex
    Maxon+ Ultraviolet+Room verb
    Fuzz+Ultraviolet+Room verb
    Timmy+Maxon+EchoPlex
    Page+SLDrive+Dyna Comp+Echolplex

    Very pleased with the Ultraviolet, lots of different sounds in there.

    Just realised I have two pedalboards now, the second based on a recent Studio Rats video, but actually what I do my very occasional Gigs/Jam nights with but with the Tonex in place of the Ox Stomp.
    As I'm at home six days a week during August until a new contract kicks In this is my happy place 4-5 hours a day...

    … and no, I don't live in an Indian restaurant.

    Pleasing guitar-pedal colour coordination there.

    I have a stupidly bid pedal board, containing some genuinely fine pedals, but I have to humbly admit to a serious case of 'pedal envy'.

    We will fix it, we will polish it, we will put it on Gassage's board...

    Very nice, one of the few boards that can describe the left and righ sides by Timezone 

    Quick question, how do you find the Electric Lightening compared to the Page?  Is there much overlap or are they quite different?

    Cool. How are you finding the Secret Preamp? What you were hoping for?

    Yeah, really like it. It gives me a little boost that pushes my amp just to breakup & delivers a subtle eq boost. Totally unnecessary, yet I love what it does vs pushing the preamp on my amp.

    Lovely lovely board mate 
    Thanks 

    The whole board could be replaced by much cheaper Boss/generic units & I don’t suppose anyone would ever notice. I’m happy though and this board works perfectly for me.
