Help me split my pedalboard up

Post by karmablock »

This is my current board that I use for both bass and guitar. I want to split it in two different boards and get more non-fuzz effects any suggests?

I also have a Boss SE-50 rack unit.

For bass I'd use:
Bass Wah (duh)
Holy Grail
Hair of the Dog
Super massive black hole
and one of teh volume pedals
and I'd buy a phase 90, they sound really cool on bass.

Except for the Unibass which I have no idea about, I think that would all work nicely on guitar. :idk: Is there any real reason to split it into two boards?

For more effects, delayzzzz! Memory Toy/Boy, carbon copy and malekko 616 are good cheap analogue delays, more expensive there's the Memory Man, Lunar Echo, Moog, Memory Lane. Lots of fun digital stuff too, DL4 and DD20 do plenty of stuff and are cool, EHX SMMH does normal stuff less well but is loads of fun.

Maybe add a delay... DMB Lunar Module or Empress SuperDelay.
Octave pedal like the FoxRox Octron.
A filter like Subdecay Proteus.
Or some Mid-Fi Electronics... Clari(not) or Pitch Pirate.
Dr. Scientist Cosmichorus.

You already have lots of good stuff.
I would use those Death by Audio pedals with the guitar.

I had it combined because I play bass more but now that I am more comfortable with guitar I want to be able to play with dragging pedal I don't use with me. http://www.noiseguide.com/product_info/akai_unibass_ub1

Sounds pretty rad. I'd just set it all up and alternate between bass+guitar and decide what stuff you prefer/which stuff you use most for each instrument, you have enough pedals that you shouldn't end up with too much on one and nothing on the other? It's hard to say, because for example I'm not generally a fan of reverb on bass so I'd use that for guitar, but bass reverb might be something you use a lot.

have someone rehouse that DBA pedal guaranteed you can fit that into an MXR box, then you could keep the fuzz and get more non fuzz :snax:

Yeah I was surprised how small the pcb was. It could easily fit into the enclosure of the soundwave breakdown except those huge switches.
