Nah, my board is pretty static. I tend to update it fairly seldom, and when I do it's often a pedal here, a pedal there. But Randy and Maude are part of a larger plan - in a few months time I'll rejig my board completely and put both of them on, and a few other pedals. I'm nerdy enough that I have a scale drawing of my board and my pedals in Inkscape that I use to plan purchases* and where to put them on the live board. I use my home pedals to test combinations and stuff and then when it's time for an overhaul of the gig board I do that. Now that I write that, that's pretty god damn anal haha, but it makes sure that my board is always functional and with minimal down time. And I hate redoing my board. Cabling. Grr. Sucks. I can't count how many times I've redone it Inkscape though...
*This level of planning is often interrupted by insane random gas.
i can relate to this, maybe minus the scale drawings
it's frustrating writing songs in a band whilst using certain pedals and having to keep them on the board at a certain setting for live performance, i found myself getting tired of stuff and not really being able to rework it.
putting together and maintaining a board of that size is a total headache, so easy to lose hours just working out a layout or cable lengths or whatever.
good idea having all the spare stuff made up into boards for quick use too!
