Redid my board after 18 months

Post by Thom »

Spent some time this evening putting together a new board to play with.
Was so good having all my gear to choose from after minimal equipment in China.
Moved back from my pedal train mini to my Diago board to satisfy my need for a bunch of things.
Unfortunately I've not had chance to plug it in yet as it was late by the time I finished and the girls were sleeping, but looking forward to tomorrow.

Here's the chain:
Morley Bad Horsie Wah - TU-2 - MBM Naga Viper clone - MBM '78 IC Muff - Formula No.5 - DLS - Zoom MS100BT - Script Phase 90 - Carbon Copy - FRV-1 - RC-2 with tap tempo - Harley Benton British

Nice set up, is that a showman or a tourman? I used to dislike having my phaser there in my chain, I used to run it first otherwise I would get some weird kind of clicking sound when distortion was engaged.

Did none of the Mooer mini peedlols make the cut? (That was you wasn't it?) Obviously not, but were any close?

Looks great BTW!

IN all seriousness though I'd be super interested to hear a quick summing up of your thoughts on any/all Mooers - I can add any relevant feedback into the cheap Pedals thrad.

Cheers, it's a showman, had it for a long time but had moved to the PT Mini prior to moving away. Not had any clicking issues with the Phaser, but have had it first and where it is now, depending on the sound I wanted.

It was me! The Mooer pedals are currently on a slow boat from China :D
I really liked them, but I'm not sure that any of them would actually make it. Maybe the Phaser, but I prefer the Small Clone emulation on the Zoom to the Chorus pedal, the delay didn't have quite long enough delay time for me and the Rat clone was good, but the 2 Catalinbread dirt boxes are my favourite ever.

Done.

I really want to do a side by side with some of my other pedals once I get them back and will definitely post my thoughts.

It was a close call as to whether to have the #9 Saltbooster on there too - need more space!

Cheers Rob. All my China gear other than a couple of pedals is being shipped back on a container ship. Am really hoping the guitars make it in one piece, I grew quite fond of the "Gibson" Custom in the end after I had set it up properly and changed the pickups.

Yep, it's my old Diago one, but same difference. I've powered more than this off it before with no issues.

I've been using their power station for years and it's great!

As for the phaser thing, maybe it was something to do with me using the small stone. I'll have to try the phase 90.

Ah yes, I found the Small Stone more picky when I used to have one, and the Small Clone even more so - definite clicking there.
