I keep it pretty simple. I like the FireEye for the boost with solos...

I finally had the time to put the first version of mine together.
Everything is in the loop of the Fishman Aura Spectrum-
Aura Spectrum loop > Tuner > Pangaea > Mosquite Blender loop > G3.
The AMT Pangaea is loaded up with 3 Sigma Audio acoustic guitar responses.
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.

Nice board, what do you have on your footswitches?

Thanks!
They're mostly this style cables: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

There are also a couple BOSS cables thrown in there.

I have a related question, but prefer to not start a new thread when it relates here.

I want to put a board together.

I would really like an isolated power supply but I need 9 and 12v plus the Play acoustic and the best buddy both require much more then 100ma and most power supplies I’ve found
only have 1 high output and the rest 100ma. At the moment there’s only 3 powered pedals there but I may add an active Splitter and a bass pedal to output my bass lines to a small isolated bass amp.

The other thing I would love advice on is layout tips.

The loopi 3 button is to act as a switch 3 for the Play acoustic. The loopi 2 button is to split my air pedal and act as 4 button for the air turn.
I will also add 2 button extra switch for the beat buddy. Finally near my hit button on the Play acoustic I’ll add a bass kick type stomp foot box.

I’m just about to buy a tweed pedal board case to put it all in.
I’ve sort of laid it out the way I was planning.

My solo acoustic pedal board. Trying to figure out how to make that picture bigger

[Mischief]

Well a work in progress.
This is the way I’m planning to lay it out.

I just bought a mini EQ and compressor for the octave pedal. I may use those instead of the B1 pedal. I also may implement an active ABY pedal.
My power supply has not arrived yet so I’m working where that will go.

In the meantime I’m varnishing my tweed case right now and then I’ll start fastening the pedals down and building some patch cables.

Few beatbuddys there
I took mine off to start looping percussion on the body of the guitar.
Pulled the Beatbuddy out again last week and forgot how great this little pedal is. It’s going back on the board. Especially with Bluetooth to Onsong.

It's been through a few versions but feel like I've got it dialed in with all components doing their respective job........ source is a 1994 Taylor 810 with an LR Baggs Anthem installed

Temple Audio Compact Board - not using their mounting system (not a fan) but am using 3M Dual Lock Reclosable Fastener SJ3560 velcro and then zip ties for cable - very clean and am using the side connections for when I play out on stage. everything is rock solid and road worthy.

Decibel Eleven Hot Stone SMD Power supply - very clean isolated power and fits under the board nicely

TC Electronics Polytune 2 Blacklight - still a great tuner and I dig the display and the way it tunes. Strange they don't sell these any more.

Empress Effects ParaEQ - new add to the board after selling another pre-amp. Incredibly impressed, but not for the faint of heart if your unfamiliar with parametric EQing. Studio quality, super low noise, adds a boost circuit and gives me just exactly what I need - some High frequency noise reduction, a slight mid bump for added detail, and a problem reducing low frequency from the Anthem. Very surgical but amazingly musical.

An older Fishman AFX Reverb that's always on. Just giving a slight broadness and depth to my signal. One of the best Acoustic reverbs I've ever heard.

LR Baggs Sessions Preamp D.I. - the super special sauce stuff I've come to love. Love, love love the Saturate control adding girth and warm and then that signal leveling and smoothing Comp EQ - perfectly gives a sound man's dream signal. XLR out to the console.

Super satisfied as I said and look forward to playing it live through our Meyers FOH system at church - should be killer

Body Rez ~ I believe the Play Acoustic and the Body Rez pedal are the same and the Voicelive 3(x) is different and not able to reproduce the same result. The VL3(x) BRez does not sound as good I think.

I got the Body Rez mainly for when I use the D18/M80 to scoop the low mid-honk out of the mag. It also adds a touch of compression while enhancing the bass & highs. The end result is a most pleasing warm & natural acoustic sound imo. As with my other two pedals, I use them sparingly for lite effect as a solo full-time musician.

You have to find the sweet spot for your particular setup & for me it's around 12 to 1 o'clock position. The other nice feature is it can be used as a phase switch to knock out any sudden howl.

It truly does what it says & works well with mags & usts imo...I get a very natural "unplugged" as I can get tone, especially with the D18/M80 combo. Keep in mind I play at some high volumes in a wide array of venues and music genres so I need versatility and feedback resistance. I know for others who play more quietly may prefer K&K type systems, but they don't work as well for what I do.

It is well built too, small & compact...YouTube vids I've found can't really give you the full yet subtle effect it has in complimenting your setup.

Best wishes,

eric

Here is my rig for dobro and mandolin. I made the pedalboard myself and recently added the Grace Felix and it has been worth every penny I spent on it.

IMG_1056.jpg this is my latest iteration

[buzzardwhiskey]

Been messing with my new parallel 2-channel pedalboard for this season. The Tonedexter is extremely accurate, but just a little thin when the volume gets higher, so the Boss AD-2 adds a compressed and fatter sound in the middle. The combo is juicy and fun as hell.

Blackbird 12x24 pedalboard
Guitar and second mic into Tonebone PZ-PRE
Tuner out to PolyTune
Main out to Harmony G-XT
To Sub N Up
To Rang 3
Out to 1/4 jack on the side of the pedalboard from which I run a line to my mixer guitar in.

Main Mic into G-XT and out via right angle XLR to jack on the side of the pedalboard from which I run a line to my mixer vocal in .

Also have USB Bright Switch running with a CIOKS DC10 (to charge ipad running OnSong, old Iphone 3 running a white digital clock, and a Donner bluetooth page turner.

Having the second mic into the PZ-PRE allows me to loop/stack guitar and vocal at the same time in the style of Ed Sheeran.

Works for me! Sitting here now coming down after a fun gig tonight. Always pumped up and hard to sleep after a night with a great crowd...
