ðŸĪŸðŸŧ Road to Portability Part 3 - Third's The Charm


We can't have pedals and power supplies without the board itself. For the THIRD time in my life, introducing the Pedaltrain Nano!!!

First time I didn't really know what I was doing and sold off a used Nano in the few days I owned it. Second time got more serious and I even bought a new power supply to mount underneath the board. Still sold it away because it wasn't used as much as I imagined I would.

Third time now, I hope things will be different. I'm going ALL OUT!!!

This is how things are looking on the Pedaltrain Nano, which I got for $60 used:

This might change. But for now, this is real good.
Very very compact, very very functional, very very practical. There are so many ways to use this board so I will only list a few for this post's sake.

1. As an All-Effects-Board


The HX Stomp is essentially 6 effects worth in a 2-pedal-sized space. Occupying the other 2 spaces would be the volume pedal and Line 6 G10. There's only one problem to this rig: How in the world am I gonna use my fat foot to tap the volume pedal?

2. As a Wireless Fly-Rig

The only thing different from option 1 is the use of an overdrive pedal infront of the HX Stomp and G10 infront of the overdrive. No need for volume pedal? I'm also game!

3. As a Backup Set


The only other combination is the overdrive with volume pedal. Interestingly enough, this makes a full set of essential effects. 1 volume, 1 overdrive, 1 amp head, 1 cab, 2 delays (quarter and dotted 8th) and 2 reverbs (light and heavy).

*Sadly I didn't foresee the amount of space underneath the board and there's just not enough space to accommodate both power supplies. Therefore HX Stomp cannot go together with pedals that require a different power source.
