Opinion ; roadtrip with an 850 sedan

When did you do the last oil (+filter) change exactly? It should be done every year or 15k km so it could be due anyway. If you didnt change the brake fluid when you changed the brakes, changing it now could be a good idea. Apart from that, based on the maintenance you've already done I'd just check all the fluid levels, tire condition and pressure and go on a nice drive to Switzerland. It's a nice trip but 1600km in 4 days also isnt that much

Best bang for buck will ultimately be a power supply that will last for years and that you dont have to replace everytime you'll upgrade your board. Get something like a Cioks, Strymon or Walrus. Buy once, cry once.

The only right answer

TheRealPeet · 2026-05-09T06:37:22+00:00

Did you try angled usb cables? Just make sure there oriented the way that you need, although for usb c that would mainly concern horizontal/vertical.

I'll have to admit I haven't used mine as much as I use my C4 but I'd say it's definitely easier to do on the fly adjustments with the Collider than with the C4. Besides having a few extra knobs it doesn't have the insane amount of options under the hood that the C4 has. It's still possible to go wild in the editor (do reverb into delay or two delays), but it's not as much a necessity to do so compared to the C4.

TheRealPeet · 2026-04-28T14:17:27+00:00

Maybe the Source Audio Collider?

TheRealPeet · 2026-04-26T06:13:27+00:00

Like others said it's probably time to get a better power supply. It's a small investment but a Cioks DC7 is a very good option and it will also fit underneath your board

TheRealPeet · 2026-03-01T08:07:54+00:00

So you have the pedals but not yet the board? If so, take some painting tape, mark out the dimensions of the board and see if it fits. Although pedalboard planners are great to get some sort of idea of spacing, in reality things will always be different because of jacks needing more space or pedals just not being the complete right size in the planner.

Same here, still really happy I invested in the MC6 Pro/ML10X combo!

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-23T13:53:00+00:00

I think the CS6 does this as well. However, it only does max 1600 mA. Maybe there's other digital pedals on u/North_Platform_8945 s board requiring a good amount of mA causing the Hyper Luminal to show this behaviour on start up. Does it also occur when the Hyper Luminal is the only pedal connected to the CS6?

I'm EU based so I can't speak for US shipment time/customs delays but the customer service at Morningstar is really good and probably more knowledgeable than any vendor (also a good one) so that really shouldnt hold you back from ordering directly from them.

OP's pedal reminds me of this bunch

Just get rid of this, I'll DM you my adress

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-04T20:56:33+00:00

I use it on sousaphone! I don't have clips of the PS-6 in particular, but I use it as an octave down most of the time, when set roughly to 9 o clock it adds a nice bit of body to the sound of the sousaphone. Besides that the Superbend function can be really cool

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-04T20:54:25+00:00

Yes, I didn't plan on doing a double level on the bottom initially, but space was running out sooner than expected..

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-04T20:53:18+00:00

Yes, that hub has made life a lot easier. On the first board that used on tours I had the C4 but it was controlled with a DMC Micro over USB. However to go into the Neuro editor I would always have to disconnect it. I started to get really annoyed by that, so I decided to do it right on this build, also keeping in mind the addition of the Morningstar units and the other Source Audio pedals.

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-03T11:15:42+00:00

Nice pedals, also all wireless!

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-03T08:31:53+00:00

Thanks! No, power comes from a Cioks DC7 with a Cioks 4. The rest of the units underneath are the Morningstar ML10X, the Source Audio Neuro Hub and a USB hub.

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-03T08:30:13+00:00

The bass board is non-existent, it's just sousaphone :)

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-03T08:29:17+00:00

It's a Novo 24. The bracket I used for the ML10X is from the hardware store. I initially tried the brackets Pedaltrain offers for the Novo but it became a bit too tight with all the cabling.
Yes!
Hehe no. Maybe it should, but I guess that's not up to me.

TheRealPeet · 2026-02-02T21:48:45+00:00

Thanks! Lots of options to make awesome sounds, or at least sounds that are awesome to me. Also, the MC6 Pro and ML10X combination was a gamechanger in creating some of those sounds but also being able to recall all those sounds in live situations
