Into this:
Turn the bass down to 2 on the guiar amp and the treble down to 2 on the bass amp (high frequency horn off) and the sound is super huge, full range, loads of crushing bass when I want it from the HOG or the newest addition, the Pigtronix Mothership

Board update!
Got a second Echohead because they were on clearance at Musician’s Friend. I’m not really sure how to use two delays yet, but I couldn’t pass up the deal. I then altered my tap tempo box to have tap tempo switches for both pedals. While I was at it I did a little bit of nicer artwork on my looper and the tap tempo box: permanent marker covered in scotch tape!
This meant my Looper is not off the board, which is fine, because I’m OK carrying it along when I know I’m doing looping, otherwise there’s not really a reason to have it on the board. Someday I’ll have an EHX 2880 anyway, which will have a dedicated board with it’s foot controller.
Anywho, I started work on a DIY noisegate. I have the enclosure there just filling in space while I wait on the PCB components. I etched my own PCB for it, and will post a little step by step pictorial about that whole process when we get that far.

Recarpeted the effects board and changed the signal chain around while I had everything off the old carpet. Turns out I like the envelope filter after dirt after all, even though I didn’t think it would work at first. Frequency Analyzer also sounds better after the envelope filter, not before, and sounds just fine after dirt, so it all works out.
Chain is now EQ > HOG > (Direct out to Mixer) Effect out > Noise Box > Distortion Booster > MMM > DFW Envelope FIlter > Frequency Analyzer > Small Stone > TB Loop > (Send to Mixer) > Return from Mixer blends in dry signal from HOG and microphones if needed, else > Echohead > RC-2 > Amp.
Very versatile and everything sounds great!

New Pedal Day! I got a good deal on my phaser because the DC jack didn’t work. Pedal still functioned with a 9v battery so it was a piece of cake to put in an alternative DC jack that connects directly to the battery terminal. Thanks to General Guitar Gadgets for the inspiration and the how-to.
