my favourite chorus pedal!

Mine too! Although the Small Clone is a very close second.

This is my main station, and is composed almost entirely of effects (save the airsynth)... all effects can be routed into three separate signal paths via my mixer... I operate live in a band [æther generator] almost exclusively with effects, using the audio and midi signal from my bandmate's stuff through this rig.

Aux Pre 1: Boss SL20 > Left Output > WMD Geiger Counter > Devi Ever Mangler (folding back to the GC) > EH Ring Thing > EH Microsynth
Right Output > Push.Pull

Aux Pre 2: Studio Electronics Modmax Filter > Line 6 M13 > Roland EF303

Aux Mix 3/4 : Korg KP3 > Korg KP2

Hope you like it!
Come hear it and see some past configurations...

I think "station" is the right word, damn!

Shit dude, that thing is massive. How the heck do you move it without breaking your spine?

Armies of minions?

I'm pretty sure he just built a venue over it.

OMG

this is insane! do you freelance? :P Want to join my band for our upcoming gigs?
Awesome.

coloringpad. WOW

that board sux.

Funny! Venue should be built around it, dammit! The ice cube pic is classic... so flattered.

The box itself is not heavy at all, it's the wires and boxes that make is a "ground floor only" box: but i am strong like bull. This is actually the ninth incarnation of transport.

posted the following on my blogspot page a while back (relevant, hopefully not egotistical) and it appears here on matrixsynth http://matrixsynth.blogspot.com/2010/07 ... es-in.html:

on my website are some photos of my many attempts at constructing boxes to transport and configure my gear over the years. why show them? seems a bit, well... showy. a few reasons:

1. they make me laugh, they make me sigh, they make me cringe. they all had some fatal design flaw: too heavy. too big for the car. too many wires to hook up before a set. new gear doesn't fit. old gear doesn't work. ridiculous. insane.

2. they are my only document to the evolution of the process with these pieces of gear and how i configured them. also i can't describe them in words.

3. inventors have failures, and glimmers of success in many of those failures. they also just have failures. embarrassing, public failures.

4. building a new one, fueled by inspiration, frustration, and (usually) new musical discoveries, is one of my favorite things to do.

5. some of them were really outrageous. i mean, come on: plexiglass sun lit up with lights? the super three shelf monster? the modular sun that didn't fit in the car? dude.dude. no one does a da boxes lika i a do!

6. i am driven by the following criteria for making a new one:
a. weight when transporting ( just one gig up three flights has inspired a couple of these incarnations!)
b. time to set up for live gig/rehearsal (the dream? left, right, power, on, go!)
c. i draw schematics in my dreams
d. new sound combinations mean some gear has to be next to one another (like sl20 > [left out] > wmd geiger > devi ever mangler > ring thing > microsynth > mixer [right out] push.pull > mixer , then options to four effects routing paths, from my newest configuration) sound confusing? well, imagine having to hook all that up in fifteen minutes before you go on stage, and remember what goes into where for who and why and is this left the other left and don't forget the midi in the spaghetti and is their enough outlets?! simplify, you say? where's the fun in that? toys toys toys!
e. at last, that last box is dead. it was such a bad idea.this new box will be much better. it will solve all my problems. i will be happier. this new box is fantastic. absolutely perfect... well, except for... rinse, repeat.
f-z. i do not have a roadie.

and until i do have a roadie, a & b will always be a factor. not that i ever get both! usually b (wiring) over a (weight). a is my nemesis. curses, you foul heavy thing!

...but just you watch out! for if i ever get a roadie, the box i make then will be one for the electronic gods: nonesuch as ever beheld! lo! the box! it burns mine eyes with perfection!

by the way, here's a video from this am:

Just when everyone's got over the initial shock of how awesome that thing is you show us a video where it lights up awesome!
