I sold me Julianna as the Pladask Elektrisk Feber does vibrato, chorus AND phaser. I love my Eventide Ultratap delay and while the UA golden is a one trick pony bread and butter reverb, I prefer the Empress Reverb or the Neonegg Planetarium 3 (the latter does reverb AND delay AND tape lo-fi AND also works as a sidechain). In addition to those, the Pladask Elektrisk Baklengs is a wonderfully weird granular pedal, the Meris Hedra is great for vocals (and mono synths), then I'd always recommend using a Noise Gate like the TC Electronics Sentry BEFORE going into a heavy distortion, the Empress Compressor pedal does a very decent job while on the road and I can't wait to get the Chase Bliss Generation Loss MK2 for that warped lo-fi effect. I use mostly the Cioks DC7 for pedal power, as it's more versatile for 9/12/15/18V connections.
Pedals that float my boat... Timmy Clean OD, Zendrive a thicker smooth OD, & Wampler Catapulp (British/Orange Amp sound) are my OD/Distortion pedals that get used with everything. For a tube/preamp pedal, I built the preamp stage of a JCM800 into a pedal. That gets used in front of a couple of cleaner marshall type amps or my vintage AC30 amp to drive them harder. And Delays are simple - Strymon, and MXR.
Great video as always! For me, my pedalboard is set in my studio with only a DC brick (T-rex chameleon) on it and with my Line 6 DL4 for the loop fonction and well because it's a really fun pedal! The reason why I prefer my setup empty like this is 'cause when I plug more than around 7-8 pedals, I usually need to use a daisychain cable and for my experience I think it add too much noise to the signal (same thing with bad cables, but this is another topic). Also if you don't have a buffer in the beginning/end of your chain and a lot of pedals are on the pedalboard, even if they're off you'll lose some ''strengh'' in your signal. I prefer to have the same setup of yours, but with all my pedals, cables/DC reachables in a basket on the side. Like this, we can quickly organize something without having to pass thru all the pedals that are not uses and it keep the signal flow clean. But hey, the perfect setup doesn't exist! We just need the one that keeps our creativy freshhh
I’ve got a big studio board with multiple amps and also a quad cortex. It’s so much easier when it’s all rigged up. Past fx do an amazing CE1 Chorus clone.
After many years of tone hunting.. I LOVE my Fender Deluxe. Although idk how similar to your Supro it would be. Also EHX pitch fork is a great little studio tool. Easy to use for octave and harmony.
tips from someone who has made and obsessed over making pedal boards for years. Temple audio makes boards that have switches on the sides and modules on the sides (even buffers) so you can plug into the sides the board AND have switches to for your power unit. but don’t use the temple plates! just use some 3m dual lock and put it on the bottom of the pedal where it isn’t going to rip the stickers off… then you can resell the pedals and not go through the hell of removing the plates. way better than velcro. velcro sucks and if yo have animals your animal hair all gets on those boards…. Cioks makes the best pedalboard power units with switchable powers for 9, 12, 15, 18 for each output. Square plugs 500 with mogami wire- learn to make your own patch cables for extra cleanliness and they are super quiet. Protien is a great pedal. but honestly… after years of all of this… its good to have some stuff but get yourself an axe fx III…. then you never have to leave the desk and you have every amp, pedal and effect ever… THAT is the cleanest of all. kinda lacks soul and may not be as inspiring but it gets you going to where you want to be if you are inspired to write a riff or something. I’m sure this will bring out some haters but all I can say is if you are a guitar guy thats one thing but if you are multi instrumentalist and recording and producing at least having the axefx in the rack is a game changer.
From experience I will tell you that the zip tie mounts will fall off with temperature changes. You can secure them with sheet metal screws. I have no experience with EB's cables, but I will always recommend custom soldered connections over the premade solutions. You'll have a better connection, shorter run, and longer lasting cable. I also want to encourage you to mod the DL4 for true bypass if you are able. It's a fantastic sounding unit, but lacks analog dry-through. This means you're always running through the pedals buffer, and converters which add latency. Not a big deal if you're only using one pedal, but the conversion times do add up if you stack different things. It's noticeable when you play two DL4's in series. It might be with the Ox. Haven't tested that.
You gotta get a proper fuzz pedal on there, man. Also highly recommend putting a small audio interface on the board to run some effects and loopers on an iPad. Gauss, especially. Looking great so far!
I have tried multiple setups... and still haven't found a setup that really works. A pedalboard still requires you to reach for the floor all the time while sitting. A rack or wall solution still requires you to rip things apart when you have to gig.=, and supply power and signal to a floor wah or expression pedal. Han and Chewy would scratch their heads at this
The older I get, the less and less pedals I use. I have paired it down dramatically. For me, it’s mostly amp tone these days. I need to sell off about 20 pedals. Lol
Warm Audio Centavo Love this pedal I use it more for my clean channel (with the Mod switch on) than the distortion part. really enhances my clean tone. Check it out. I know you're a warm audio fan as well. Love your videos Andrew I learn so much. And thank you for that.!! always a fan
Nice board dude! If you want to come check some gear out at Norman’s Rare Guitars in Tarzana let me know- been watching your channel for a while and would love to help out with the guitar journey!
Bro, 2022 has been the year of GAS for you my friend.
I love your videos and I have learned SO much from you! It's also been really cool watching you grow your studio!

My favourite reverb of all time is the Red Panda Context. Super slept on pedal company in general but all their stuff is unbelievably good
Guitar really is one of the most fun instruments.
Jhs colour box v2 is my favourite pedal of all time. Great preamp, Eq pedal, fuzz, DI box, reamper. Amazing for studio use.
Andrew’s come up this year >>>>
the little zip tie stick on cable ties are Panduit Stick ons 😉

Love your studio keeps me going on mine. I think my next pedals are tuner and the new lore walrus pedal ❤
Nice! Thanks dude
Had like three pedal boards in the studio for a while. Now I just reamp everything. Lol.
Beautiful studio. Merry Christmas to u and your family
Get yourself a Princeton ToneMaster amp and a Peterson strobe tuner pedal. Two great pieces of solid studio equipment or gigging.

Love your channel! Also, love the fender deluxe! Go buy one 🎉. Thanks for a great year of videos 👍🏻.
They're called 'Cable Tie Anchors'
Great video! Your studio is awesome
Thanks so much!

Check out Chase Bliss and Old Blood Noise Endeavors for some really cool and unique pedals as well. :)
Digitech Drop is one of the best pedals for studio use.
Highly underrated pedal I don’t see many people talk about is the Dunlop rotovibe
Which amp selector are you going to use?
Pedalboard looks good, how does it sounds?
Great video! Thanks for all the info :)
Wait wait wait Wait. No Wah pedal on the pedal board?
Okay Andrew, you made me want to put one together! Digitech Whammy, and Dan-echo for starters I think.

elmwood woodpecker for overdrive 🤝🏻

MAKE THAT THANG STEREOOOO
I'm actually going to do an atmos pedalboard. 14 outs.
Instead of a fender DRRI, I’d love to see you get a UAD Dream, and maybe show some reamping use cases with it!
How booked up are you with clients in order to make all this content!!? Thx for the vids
I don’t do for hire work.
@@AndrewMasters How do you make a living? Thank you
I run this channel.

I don't have telegram how do I reply to your message to me
JHS Angry Charlie, EQD Astral Destiny and Avalanche Run
Also, a loop switcher is indispensable. I have a VooDoo Labs one that is pretty simple and not too expensive.
Nice board dude! If you want to come check some gear out at Norman’s Rare Guitars in Tarzana let me know- been watching your channel for a while and would love to help out with the guitar journey!
