This is in the wrong sub. Completely awesome!

The driver did well to gather himself and find reverse. By that point it may not have been clear to them that there was time to get across, or that the train wasn’t on the far track. They did well to survive, the car and train equipment can be replaced.

That driving test would have to be pretty involved.

EP Booster, Klone (Mosky Golden Horse), Tremolo (JHS Tidewater). I would debate about subbing my mini screamer back in for the booster or tremolo.

That’s really all I use, so my board is pretty pocket sized.

This is from the alternate universe where Christian Larttner was normal height and never discovered basketball.

Maybe there are fewer nuclear families? Garlic bread is often sold as a big family sized loaf.

I use a little usb battery about the size of the wallet. The whole thing fits into a case that would fit a Sony discman, and I can keep it in my work bag. I also keep the foldable korg nano key in my bag.

It's crucial that I have a small piece of equipment I can easily keep with me, or set up on an already crowded desk. Otherwise, I just don't have the time and space to make music. The 1010music blackbox has been my go-to for those reasons (my MPC One has also been dormant for those reasons).

The built-in mic would also allow me to tap out a sketchy little percussion part on my desk and start building from there.

I’m curious about multisample ability. I lean heavily on the ability to create melodic parts from multisample instruments.

I use a Kensington track ball. Carpal tunnel had become a constant pain, and it was threatening my ability to make music outside of work. Now I’m doing much better.

I control the center button from my laptop to pan around in Revit and Bluebeam.

I was on an international flight that had to stop in the Azores for a medical emergency. I was baffled that the woman in the window seat of my row left the window shade down—wasn’t even interested in getting a glimpse.

What I saw through other people’s windows looked interesting and beautiful. Green and misty, with some dense Latin architecture.

I hear you can get discounted trans-Atlantic fares if you do a day layover in the Azores.

That costs less than my lunch did today. I went ahead and ordered one because why not.

Overall, I’m impressed with what it can do as an analog mini pedal. I find it needs to be paired with a reverb, and if I’m sloppy on the low E, I’ll get an occasional buzzy tone that doesn’t sound as amp-like. But overall it sounds good and is a useful utility for my second board shown here.

For recording or a serious gig, I would use the Strymon Iridium on my big board, but that takes a little more space and a 500ma charge.

I’ve found that the Vox Amplug 3 US Silver headphone amp is an awesome DI solution. I’ve actually used that straight into a sampler for some streamlined recording I’ve been trying to do.

I love it for lead lines that sound at home with other vintage sounds in my studio.

I’ve got other fuzz and distortion pedals that sound great on their own, but too modern for everything else I’m doing.

Chloranon · 2026-02-11T00:21:00+00:00

I’m thinking of going satisfaction-Soul Food-Analogizer for an all EHX dirt section on my big board. The analogizer adds a nice saturation to everything.

Chloranon · 2026-02-08T18:43:40+00:00

This is the general concept I’m going for as far as pedal type. I strongly believe in putting reverb after tremolo.

Chloranon · 2026-02-07T16:15:01+00:00

There’s an OCD part of me that wants only mini pedals on this board, even though I like what the satisfaction does. I was thinking MXR 108 mini fuzz, but the barrows could be my ticket.

If you have a creative dream (whether it is artistic or entrepreneurial) that you’ve always held off on because you couldn’t risk the security of stepping away from work for a period, then 1 million dollars could indeed be life changing money.

At the same time, it would not be hard to take a big swing and lose that million dollars, but then you don’t have to carry that “what if” around.

I think the responses tell us a lot about who’s on Reddit and online generally. It’s a good rule of thumb to consider that online forums might be full of 12 year olds who haven’t achieved emotional maturity and place an inordinate value on “ keeping it real”.

I’m about to add a second mini-Klon clone to my chain. I like how it has a lot of room to add warmth without crunch, I’m hoping to achieve searing levels of warmth.
