This is my live pedalboard (actually it's down at the rehearsal room so the photos about 6 months old - before i rigged it up for stereo). My previous was about twice this size but had to downsize for touring... I added a patch bay on the back that gives me a loop after the distortions so I can patch in more mods/ reverbs if needed so have managed to stick to the PT2 for a while... (that's just my old bass pedal board below btw.)
The Zoom pedals aren't the best but serviceable for live... all the patches are blatant rip offs of hi-end stuff.. one (on a parallel looper) is taking the place of my Eventide Pitchfactor and HOF, the other mimics 3 pedals previously in the Super Ego FX loop.
The signal splits on input through a JHS splitter (on the bottom of the board) and one side goes through - clean boost -> super ego -> volume -> zoom mfx...
The other side is a bit more traditional - tuner -> octaver -> distortions -> zoom (on fx loop)...
Both channels then go in to a Palmer mixer (also mounted on the bottom) and out in to the Space Echo
Keely TS and Muff on there but currently running a Brassmaster clone, EH Soul Food and always the Recovery FX Bad Comrade...
When it works it sounds like this:
- Nice. I'm growing more and more curious about the Superego; I see it mentioned often for ambient guitar stuff.mg33
- it is great, but the auto mode needs a booster before to track well with p90s. i run it 100% wet and use the vp jr as fx send volume for a bit more control.kingsteven
- it then bypasses all the distortion so i have a nice clean drone behind whatever else i'm doing.kingsteven
- do you play bass or guitar or both?mg33
- currently playing bass in two groups guitar in one. prefer bass but will willingly strum chord inversions through fx all day long :)kingsteven
- i do a lot of recording up here so like to have a good selection of guitars around but it's often someone else playing them.kingsteven
