A matrioshka board, one of every size.
This is actual gear goals

so i added a chorus...did a reshuffle...i am now 1 pedal away from perfection. the last pedal is a Mr Dunwich designed DA120 with a clean channel...it will basically turn my Matamp GT1 into a 2 channel amp. At the moment I set my my matamp to a nice overdrive, and while i wait for the pedal, i have the SS/BS Mini set to reduce gain for cleans, then the Quantum Mystic to boost the overdriven amp.
But really fellas, down sizing is like my goal but it never works out. I always go into a project with like a smaller setup and by the third practice I roll up with like twenty pedals. I just recently tried to go to a small setup (like five pedals) mostly essentials, ya dig. But then everyone including my self was all like well what about that one sound from that one box and one by one my board kept growing. Now it's a tight jumbled mess off lack of space and too many cables that I already know when we start playin shows again shits gonna be a hot mess. But that's jus the woes of being a pedal hoarding "guitar player"

I feel this. I wish I was the type of person who just brought one fuzz pedal and made music. I think truth is I'm quite happy with the size I'm rocking now.

I really dig your board, it has basically anything i need, maybe i'll just add an overdrive. What do you use the big orange switch for?

Same here, i have noticed that my downsizing idea of the last weeks it's just about dimensions: i have picked a smaller board and now i'm seeling/buying smaller effects to make them fit, but the number of pedals is not decreasing at all. I'll probably go back to the bigger one in a couple of month..to bad it's heavy as fuck and when on tour it's pain in the ass (& shoulders)

I have the Mini OD as my overdrive...the Orange footswitch is for my other amp. But right now its just a place holder till i get my new dirt pedal. then ill set the orange as a single channel amp too.
Alrighty! So I don't have a picture, but an issue that is baffling the shit out of me. So everything works fine in my chaine except there's one issue and I thought it was my Chase Bliss Spectre. So my bass is distorting when I play even slightly heavy when using my Spectre or Xerograph now. I'm baffled at what could be causing this. I have never had this issue with my bass before, so I'm wondering if it could be the RMA pedals in my chain. They are the ONLY unknowns to me and are housed in steel and not aluminum. Could they be creating a weird grounding issue with other pedals? Or could my power supply somehow be causing it? It's bizarre and really fucking annoying. I want to play clean sometimes, and my bass is only doing it when I engaged those two pedals. Anyone have any insight?
