Roast my (quite cheap) pedalboard

Reply in thread

Thanks for your comment!

Tremolo after reverb, I'll give it a try!

Yes it's a mini CryBaby but it needs some connexion cleaner (spent few years in a drawer...).

The power supply is the Donner DP-01, bought it new few years ago and always worked well.

Never tried Phaser/Flanger BEFORE the Distortion, I'll give it a try soon, thanks for the suggestion!

The UZI is a great agressive Dist, I really enjoy it... But: so many knobs to play with. I'ts cool in a way because you can really shape your sound with several styles... But it's a potential complication too when playing live (I'm always switching the knobs in order to reach the "perfect" sound, instead of focusing on my playing).

So much that I may replace this pedal with a more "simple" one: the infamous CoPro Rat (3 obvious knobs and that's it).

I'm not happy with the Dunlop mini Cry Baby, for a very simple drawback: sometimes I don't know if it's on or off, there is no visual feedback about it. So I have to play something to check. I bought a cheap Sonicake Vol/Wah mini pedal and I'm soon to test it (it comes with blue light when on Volume mode, red light on Wah mode).

Gnome desktop looks pretty good (yet simple)

Yes I would, it's a really clean and polished web browser with lots of cool stuff inside (but the more you use stuff, the more it consumes ressources, like if you use the included mail client and the RSS feed client...).

If you're looking for a very light one, maybe have a look at Zen Browser, a fork of Firefox.
