so i pulled two channels out
mounted one to my board
because one of the outs is a delay
with side jacks
thats stuck in the middle of a row
instead of rearranging figured id mount one of them
and plug into it
whelp it works
and the stereo to mono thing is cool too
for home when i got one amp
it all goes out one channel(duh)
only problem is its kinda noisy
staticky(sp?) and some hum
is that cause its exposed?
does it need a farraday situation?
will that hvac foil tape work or do i need to box it in?

yeah
some tone guru
would say the chi was off
or it wasnt tonally feng shui
but the utter mayhem its delivering
is more like crush kill destroy poison
then monkish kung fu
in gonna put another patch channel in
so i can eliminate long wires dangling
theyre becomin quite handy
maybe ill install like 10 and have that
feedback loop built into the board itself
picture patch cords spiraling
like razor wire
around a homemade pedaltrain knockoff

i've been thinking of adding a patch bay to my board so i can do modular synth-style routing and change the order of some of the boxes for different effects.
