Nose pedals just started doing boards and they are well priced as well as pretty. Custom cases available.

So after much deliberation and thought, I'm going to move to a small board, at least so I can transport it. I just don't need all the pedals I've got going right now. SOOOOOOOOOO now I need help with that. I'm thinking like 6-8 good pedals.

What would you pick out of what I have?

My thoughts are

B7K (for sure), H9, Manta, Duality. Shit that's pretty much it. So maybe a mini? I dunno.

B7K, H9, Manta, Duality, Echo Degrader or ILFDD, dual Elements, Pharaoh

If you're going to downsize, though, I'd just get a board that'll fit 6-8 pedals and then just see what combination of 6-8 pedals works best for you.

Hmmmm. If I were shopping for 6-8...
I would go with Box of War, Manta, H9, ILFDD, Quasar, Cosmichorus, B7K.
But your choice of 4 would be highly useable, I suspect. Mini's not a bad idea.

What sounds are you after Jwar? I mean, you've got heaps of good dirt there, you could easily do a straight dirt board and not have too much overlap. Same thing with modulation...

I actually have one, it's just not on board right now.

I'm really just looking to cover the most ground possible with fewer pedals.

I mean it is overwhelming to have this many going at once.

Plus like I said, I'm going to start playing out of the house, so I don't want to lug this and my cab/head (fucking combo took a shit). I know, I know. Lift weights. I already do like a motherfucker. :)

I like the suggestions. I really like Smalleq's board. He's got like all bases covered with that sucker.

Manta>Elements>BitQuest>Duality>Cosmi>Quasar

... as much as it pains me to put a Soundblox on a board, that's what I'd do. Unless you're doing ambient stuff I wouldn't bother with any delay or reverb, even though delay on bass is the shit (you can always use the BQ if you need it). Modulation always sits awesomely in the mix regardless of style, so having the Cosmi and the Quaser is in no way overkill for me.

Yeah, my suggestion was the Megalith I knew you had.


Just the Megalith.

I picked up a Pedal Pad on ebay recently, and it's exactly what I've been looking for.
http://www.pedalpad.com/products/ii-ser ... rds/axs-ii

Don't really hear much about Pedal Pads.....:idk:

My pedals fit better than they had on the PedalTrain II, the big suitcase PT clone board I DIY'd, or the other DIY board I had.
Don't have to pull the board out of a case. the case is part of the board. which is nice.

Plus you just flip open the pedal platform panels and there's room for cables, power supply and whatever else....don't need another separate cable bag/case.

It's got a lot of angle to it, which makes hitting 2nd row pedals easier.

Overall, really happy with it so far.
