among us lot it does tend to imply 3M Dual Lock - but I've seen plenty of ebay and Amazon listings refer to sticky-backed velcro as pedalboard tape too. I don't think there is any attempt to deceive.
Anyway, you want Dual Lock
E.g. 4 meters of 50mm loop for the board and 2 meters of 20mm hook for the pedals costs less than 4 meters of 50mm loop AND hook. You might save enough to buy a decent patch cable or two!
I've always used the real Velcro stuff and I've never had a single problem. Beware of the really cheap stuff that doesn't stay stuck for very long! Buy too cheap and you might end up buying twice.
There's also some heavy duty options but I've always found these a bit overkill unless you're out on tour a lot or a busy working musician. The heavy duty stuff can be a pain to remove if you decide to start again from scratch!
its definitely dual lock I’m after, as this will be for mounting stuff underneath my board, and Velcro just doesn’t seem to cut it for that
I'd definitely recommend you use cable ties or velcro ties or similar if youre mounting something underneath your board.
Even big elastic bands are better than nothing!
Gravity always wins!
Pedaltrain make a universal mounting kit. It's basically two strips of slightly pliable metal and some screws.
I fitted a small ish power supply to the underside of a Pedaltrain and used Velcro to stop it sliding side to side, then used the universal mounting kit to hold it to the board. It hasn't moved at all since I fitted it.
I can take a couple of photos if you're interested?
Im on hols at until Thurs so will get a better look once I’m home, but wanted to order the tape so that it was there for me starting to re-build this weekend
Added benefit of the fact that it's 3M is that if you ever need to remove it, it doesn't leave any goop.
Also, PSUs are no issue:
Ha, yeah man - check it out here:
From another thread: Had a little cabinet made to keep things tidy in the study - it’s low enough to be able to swing a foot at, but is mostly perfect for swivelling my chair around and tweaking without spending hours with my ass on the floor.
Measured it out so it fits a JTM1 head and the Space Echo side by side - taking the whirring of the tape away from the cab. Also, more knobs to twist…
