My small board for downstairs, computer-room playing is actually not on a board, but just on the floor.

1. Rocktron Orange Peel Phaser - Wonderful sounding phaser that self oscillates in certain settings.
2. Full-Drive 2 Non-Mosfet in blue w/ white knobs and lettering - Great for a little oomph. I use it mostly in the FM mode.
3. Zoom Power Drive - Fantastic sounding pedal. The only pedal I ever sold and then bought back. (From a store, no less.)
4. Jam Man Solo - Great for laying down chords and jamming along. 35 minute internal memory is more than sufficient for my needs.
Can be upgraded so that it has months or even years of memory. (Or not, I have never actually read the instruction manual.)

Yee Haw!

With this and a battery powered amp I can play anywhere. The backyard, the Tetons...Space...

It has a crybaby, an artec "analog" delay, a modtone deepdive, a wolf computer, a black russian big muff, and a feedback loop. Order can be changed via the patchbay on top.

It's just a rehousing (an incredibly bad rehousing, I'm pretty sure I stuffed some radioshack pamplets in there to keep things from shorting out :picard: :lol: ).

Just figure out what pedals you need for the majority of the sounds you use, get cheap versions that sound good enough if you can, the expensive versions if you can't, and stuff it all in one of these

I think five pedals is about the limit in this enclosure (mine's slightly wider). If you omit the patchbay you could probably fit two more in if you're gutsy. When I was getting the pedals for this it sucked pretty hard, because it was essentially like re-buying my pedalboard. But the end result is awesome :omg:

Bare bones, 4 pedals or less, tuners don't count... What about foot-switches?

Modded TS-7, Dunlop CBFH, Visual sound H20 & Foot switch. If the switch doesn't count, throw my big muff after my TS.

Given that my current needs require the 13 going on 14 pedals I run, this would be a hard one.

However, if you locked me in a room with everything and blindfolded me, forcing me to hunt for what I want, I would try for:

Digitech Whammy>Rouge Overdrive>Big Muff>Digitech two second delay.
