I'm using this board with a Godin A6 Ultra direct to P.A..

It's built into a modded DAP Audio D7403 case, the board itself is made from 3/8" thick lexan sheet.


Here's the layout I made before building this board.

Very nice build.
How are you liking the Barefoot buttons ? Do the attach securely (no wobble) ?

Where do you get those large buttons for your footswitches? Looks great!

Default My all purpose pedal board

Space in the upper left corner is for my Acoustic DI that I don't have the money for right now!

Nice rig. Might I suggest using http://www.zzounds.com/item--HOSGPP2...ABEgKI5_D_BwE=
Or https://goo.gl/images/8DJY9G
Or even https://goo.gl/images/G5DDVi
to tighten up the pedals on the bottom row. It will give you more room for the looper.

Thanks Marty!
The Pangaea is an impulse response loader, I have it loaded with Martin, Gibson and
Taylor IR's from 3 Sigma Audio, it's working really good with my guitar (Godin A6 Ultra).
Here is some info about it-
http://amtelectronicsusa.com/productpagepangea.html

And the 3 Sigma acoustic guitar impulse responses-
http://www.3sigmaaudio.com/items/cat...ustic-guitars/

The Mosquite Blender is a clean blendable bypass looper. I only have the G3
in it's loop for bypassing and clean blending the effects.
Here's a good video about it from Brett Kingman-

Thanks Kev! I really like the barefoot buttons, yes they attach with 3 set screws.
No problems/wobbles so far.

Default Guitar + Bass

Yet another iteration. : )

Had to get creative as our band frequently now performs without a bass player.

Solution: Take the low notes from the chords I'm playing and create a bass player from them! Hence the second board on the right. I split my signal using a JHS splitter (bottom left on second picture). The Boss OC3 has a range control to only drop the frequencies I want (E-D on the bottom 2 strings) and I take out all dry signal so I'm just left with the roots of my chords. The SubnUp mini is for another octave down when I really want to rumble the house. Bass board is activated via the mute switch so I can kick it on or off wherever I want in a song/set.





Guitar Chain: Guitar(s) > Tonebone Pz-Pre > MXR Studio Compressor > Sentry Noise Gate > JHS Buffered Splitter > Tapesty Bloomery Volume Pedal (active) > Strymon Dig Delay > Strymon BlueSky Reverb > Neunaber Immerse Reverb > Ditto Looper > Tonebone > PA/amp
The Strymon Tap Favorite switch set up as a favorite switch for the DIG.

Bass Chain: Guitar(s) > Tonebone Pz-Pre > MXR Studio Compressor > Sentry Noise Gate > JHS Buffered Splitter > JHS Mute > MXR Dyna Comp > Boss OC-3 Super Octave > SubnUp Mini > MXR M81 Bass Preamp > PA/amp

Tuner: Boss TU-3s. Fed via the tuner out of the PZ-Pre.
Power: Cioks DC-10 + 9V DC adapter daisy chain for bass board
Board: Pedaltrain Classic Jr. and Pedaltrain Nano+

I love that MXR bass pre. When I play bass, it's the only pedal I bring.

My acoustic board went from this:



... to this:



L O V E I T ! !

Mono or stereo, presets galore, PEQ, Reverb, modulation, notch, dual source, routing, effects loop, looper, expression pedal... the list goes on and on and on. I've been a pedal head for a long time, but this is a game changer for me.

Oh, and I also sold my acoustic combo amp and got a FRFR... a Line6 L2t. Amazingly flexible. It can be a FRFR PA, acoustic amp or monitor... and it sounds awesome.

Wow that is super cool! I'm gonna PM you and pick your brain if I may to ask about acoustic tone and adjust ability. I have a fishman Plat Pro EQ preamp on my pedal board and its super easy to change EQ settings on the fly depending on the venue. (i.e. if I need more of less bass, scoop the mids, maybe add a little sparkle etc)

What about feedback notch filitering? Will the Helix offer that too?

Yup, it does it all. There are a variety of EQ type options, very easy to control on the fly. I will say the first couple hours were a bit daunting... but once you get past that initial shock of learning something complicated, it is great. It was a lot like learning the Timeline I had... took me a while to learn it, but once I did it was awesome and could do just about anything I wanted.

I had a Fishman Plat Pro once... nice unit but so limiting compared to a Helix.

Looking at the manual just now, there are 5 EQ models: simple, low/high cut, parametric, 10 band, Cali Q. I use the low/high cut on the sound hole humbucker of my dual source rig to cut the low out. Also use the PEQ on my K&K. The PEQ can be setup as a notch with a high Q value.

Also, I forgot to mention it has a couple compressors I like. And it does IR... which I haven't gotten into, but is all the rage here on AGF.

Feel free to PM me...

I don't have a picture but I do use a Tonedexter:

Martin OM->Tonedexter->A/B box
Telecaster->Vox MV50 mini amp->A/B box
[A/B box t]}->TC Helicon Play Acoustic (Bodyrez zeroed out)->Mackie 802 mixer->Fishman SA220 PA

I get reverb for the guitars and voice from the Play Acoustic, voice compression, EQ and occasional harmonies from the Play acoustic and amp modeling for the Telecaster from the little Vox amp. There is an external foot switch coming off the Play Acoustic for boost and harmonies. I can tweek EQ and individual volume on the mixer as well as add an additional mike for a second singer, if I have one.
