Cool! Two Reverb pedals!

But you've got to replace your cheap patch cables one day.

Alas! One day I will take the plunge and purchase quality patch leads.

The RV-3 is set to Reverberate and Delay!

I literally just rigged this up so its a bit messy and the MT-2 & CS-2 are only in there for show they'll be changed to a PN-2 & EH-2/AC-2. Other Possible changes could be the HF-2 to a Bf-2 and my wah to a chrome 535. It's going to be all analog until the delay unless i decide to switch that one day too lol oh and the back pedals are raised for easier tap dancing!

That's good use of a BCB60.
Sort you cables out and you'll be fine (some of them are a bit tight, one is even trapped in the PQ4).


I've only ever seen a couple of BCB60's on here that were modified to hold more than the standard 6 compacts.
You've even managed to shoe-horn a Dunlop wah in there as well.

It would be nice if you could power the three pedals in the lower row from the power supply... Would angled power jacks do the job or you have to stick with batteries?

The BCB60's power supply should have no problems powering all those pedals.

Hi Frenetic Amnestic
First off all, you have a really nice board. I like it! But I have a few questions about the LPB-1, as I'm thinking of getting one. How do you use it? For a boost in the chain or for something else? I'm going to use mine to push my semi-clean tube amp into overdrive. Have you ever tried it that way? Thanks in advance

Yes, I know. What I meant was, whether there is enough space.

Ah... I see what you mean.

Yes, I'd have thought angled adapters would just about do it.

whoa what? how can the bcb power all of them? is there a alternate cord i can buy with more spots? right now the bcb powers 6 of them with 1 extra spot and the ns-2 is powered by another adapter and dasiy chained for the rest. it just looks like the bottom layer is on batteries because the top layer is raised and the cords are hidden.

Thanks Joske,

I use it both ways. It depends on the guitar. I really like the LPB-1 for the fact that it doesn't affect the EQ when engaged like most overdrive pedals do. It literally just boosts your signal as is. Hence the name. I just got done using my strat, and I use it as a sole overdrive/booster pedal with the gain rolled way back on my mesa for an attempt at 70's rock guitar tones. But when used with my Ibanez prestige for my main metal type sounds, I use my maxon for the overdrive and then the LPB-1 for a solo boost. However, when used with a highly overdriven amp, there's not a very noticable VOLUME boost, just a gain boost, even when on full blast like I have it set. A bit disappointing, but it works well enough for me. I'll switch back and forth between the Maxon and the LPB for my main overdrive. Such a huge price difference, but both have things I like about them.

That will work without any problems.

Yes, the mA rating on the power suppply is more than enough to power them.
You just need a longer daisy chain cable (or two chained together) preferably with angle jacks... just shop around and you you'll find some.
You could use the power connecting cable that comes with the Behringer PB1000. I'm sure Behringer would sell them as spares.

PaulH is absolutely correct with all of this. What you are doing now will work fine. But I would like to add a couple of things:

Stinkfoot's gear pages. I found this to be invaluable when it comes to working out a pedalboard and organizing your effects. Pay attention to the section on Powering your pedals. This is pure gold when it comes to learning about how much power your pedals need and what the safe way to power them is.

Also:

Have a look at this and also this.

I'm not saying you should buy these from here or anything. Just an example of what's out there. But before you do anything I would read Stinkfoot's page. He makes everything very clear. Nice board, btw.
