^ that needs a well broken-in Mesa Thiel cab
Haha. I'm actually really liking the cabclone out into the FR-12. It's a lot better than I expected. I'm in an apartment now (no shared walls, but still) and I love how controllable the volume is. Not to mention the extra tone controls are nice to have. I do have a custom 2x12 in the garage but I'm just too lazy to drag it outta there.

I need to do some cable management underneath, but I pretty much have this board completed. The Friedman IR-X is cool by itself, but didn't do it for me with boosts. I am using the GT-1000 Core for effects as well as amp modeling, but bypass the Cab Sims. I run into a Fryette Power Station PS-2A and a Mojotone British 412.

The Morningstar MC8 covers turning off and on effects in the patch like a pedalboard. I am contemplating a second midi cable (Boss midi out to Morningstar midi in) so I can change the options on the Morningstar when I use the down/up switches on the Boss GT-1000 Core.

Patch wise, there will likely be a clean patch, a medium gain patch, a higher gain rock rhythm patch, and a lead patch. My first patch so far uses the Boutique amp, which might be a Dumble or something. It can get pretty high gain with the gain switch (currently set to go from medium to high), overdrive (blues OD which I think is a Bluesbreaker), and solo switch.

Boutique will likely be the light to medium gain patch with the three options above bypassed. I'm thinking the Supreme will cover higher gain stuff, while maybe one of the Fender style amp models cover cleans. I'm not sure what I'll use for the lead patch.

I am using a Truetone CS7 power supply to power the Cry Baby Mini, Strobostomp HD tuner, Morningstar MC8, and Boss GT-1000 Core. The EMG ES-918 has batteries (though I hate the way it is implemented, as it making mounting to a pedalboard difficult), and the Mission EP-1 doesn't require power.

At the very least, you deserve a reward for a neat and tidy look. :agreed: I've been thinking more about the GT-1000 lately.....

And thankfully, no bare man feet in the pic, either. :wavey:

You want that, you pay for it! :lol:

All joking aside, the lack of tidiness is being hidden by the angle. The cable management will tidy everything up, but I feel awful thanks to allergies at the moment, so that'll need to wait most likely.

Kind of done. This is more than enough for anything I could conceivably do with a guitar, and way more than I currently do; and is likely enough for what I'd never do as well.

Aria OD + Compressor into ToneX.

Potential improvement may be a Strymon Compadre so I could include it in the Midi controls. That's pretty much it.

The expression pedal controls gain, not volume. It's a super handy trick to add to something like a ToneX, giving a lot more flexibility.

The midi controller is setup to just turn effects on/off from the ToneX, just for fun. The great thing about this setup is that it can do both presets AND control changes. I'm thinking of eventually creating a bank of favorite ToneX sounds, and each preset can swap between two 'channels' on a long-press (or 2 effects combination, whatever). It's all so easy to do here.
