Alright y’all. As 2023 comes to a close, lets share how our boards have changed, and maybe plans for 2024
How it started:
TC Polytune 3, Vox wah, EHX PitchFork, EHX Soul Food, Boss SD-1, Boss DS-1, Danelectro Cool Cat, Danelectro Dan-echo, MXR Tremolo, Boss RC-5
How it’s going:
TC Polytune 3, EHX Pitchfork, DOD Carcosa, EHX Soul Food, Analogman Prince of Tone, MXR Micro Flanger, MXR Phase 95, Danelectro Cool Cat, MXR Tremolo, Strymon El Capistan, Boss RC-5
In 2024 I may replace the Cool Cat with another chorus, and put together one or two other boards from my spare pedals: Danelectro Dan-echo and Fab Tone, Boss BD-2, SD-1, and DS-1, TC Ditto).
Huge. But in a controversial way… I went with a Line 6 Helix. Currently wrangling the beast and comparing to my old setup. I think there’s a ton of potential but you have to be okay getting flooded with options and in that whirlwind maintain good discipline to still work towards your goals. Luckily I’ve been really enjoying the process and the tone I’m able to get with it!
I had a Zoom 9000 back in 94/95 timeframe. And yeah I remember it being a giant slog to create each patch/bank. But it was great for managing a setlist!
