I've been rebuilding my board over the past few weeks, and I'm super stoked with the result. Getting some sweet synth and ambient tones from it. As you can see, there are a lot of loops (the PurPLL is in the loop of the T-70 which is in one of the ML5 loops which is in the C4 loop 😵), but due to the fantastic Morningstar MC8 midi controller, I can access all pedals super easily. 

 

Signal chain: 

Empress Bass Compressor 

Source Audio C4 (underneath board) 

in the loop of the C4: 

>>>Morningstar ML5 (underneath board)

>>>>>>ML5 Loop 1: Iron Ether FMeron

>>>>>>ML5 Loop 2: Broughton Audio Synth Voice Deluxe

>>>>>>ML5 Loop 3: Cog Effects T-70 (with Montreal Assembly PurPLL in its loop)

>>>>>>ML5 Loop 4: Hiero Effects B.E.A.D.

>>>>>>ML5 Loop 5: TWA Great Divide 2.0

>>>Swindler Effects The Gulf

back into the C4

One Control Midi Solo Loop (underneath board)

>>>Iron Ether Xerograph Deluxe

back into the One Control Midi Solo Loop

Line6 HX Stomp

in the stereo loop of the Stomp:

>>>Poly Effects Beebo (I/O 1&2)

>>>Hologram Electronics Microcosm

>>>Red Panda Context v2

>>>Red Panda Bitmap v2

>>>Poly Effects Beebo (I/O 3&4)

back into the HX Stomp

 

Incredible, dude. I could definitely get on with that. You looked into the Morningstar ML10X? That's been a game changer for me.

Still a bit of a work in progress, but here's my current board for Buried Sleeper. 

This thing is a game-changer for me, and I'm surprised it's gone under the radar a bit. This level of (parallel) routing control with midi and in such a small form factor is amazing. I need a lot of parallel routing with my board setup and I've already got two Zoias that act as midi controllers, so it's perfect for me. It's definitely a challenge getting the cabling tidy under the board without a full set of custom TRS splitter cables, but I'm getting there.

What's the one in the top right with the red button? 

That's my custom fuzz, made by a friend. It's a Green Russian Muff into an Op-Amp Muff, but the Op-Amp side has a blend control. I run the Russian side on pretty low gain, which boosts into the Op-Amp side, which is totally dimed, but only mixed in at about 50%. Gives me a super saturated and heavy but also really articulate tone that I like a lot. It also gets EQ'd by one of the Zoias; primarily 1K for mids and more definition.

@jimbobothy showed me his Zoia and it kinda blew my mind a little bit

I know there's a learning curve but I'm still surprised more people don't use them. They're so useful and creative.

… when one Zoia isn’t enough 😁

They are the absolute best! Couldn't live without them.

Hey. Here's my bass board for Buried Sleeper. I'm currently rewiring all of this to work with the new Morningstar ML10X, which is amazing!
