Bowie afraid

I saw the bowie celebration tour last night, here’s a snippet of me messing around a couple months ago. Playing my supro not one of my warmoths...

Nice looking rig, tell us more about it?

This is built around my ax8 and is split into 3 sections, before the ax8, the fx loop and after at which point everything goes first into the ditto x4 looper and then into my mini mixer in the upper right so I can listen through headphones or a pair of Bose S1 pro as it suits me.

I also don’t have this in a large room and the wireless helps so much to keep chords at a minimum.

I can probably do most of this with just the ax8 but I really like having knobs to turn and I wanted a little more flexibility with fuzz options and with the h9 I found I wanted the synth sounds and the delays at the same time so I got a second.

I think I had the ax8 set to a Princeton reverb, compressor and both strymons were on in the track.

Here’s how I have them in order, it was an ordeal to get them all to fit and make it so the case closed but darn it I wanted only one board.

Before the ax8:
Line 6 G10 wireless
Dunlop Volume pedal -> polytune mini noir*
xotic sp compressor
Joe Gore porkolator
Red Witch Fuzz God I*
Strymon Deco (this is always on)
Strymon Flint  (reverb is usually on set to 70s)

Ax8

Fx loop: 2 even tide H9

Output:
Ditto x4 looper
Alesis multi mix

The board is a pedal train novo32 and it has a strymon ojai and a power strip hidden underneath. The fuzz god requires an actual battery but everything else is powered.

*not pictured, I added these shortly after

Cool thanks for the reply. I wondered also if you were using it 4CM with an amp. A lot of sounds available there either way.

I think there is only one item that I have close out of that selection which is a Polytune Noir. I would not mind a pair of H9s and a Deco, I keep designing various iterations of a new board but have not settled on a final decision as yet.

The electric guitar was straight out of the ax8 into my interface.

The jangly acoustic is my Taylor strung with Nashville tuning, I think it was single mic in the room probably my n22 with reverb added in logic.

I’m also a big fan of just fuzz into my actual Princeton reverb I think I have a non embarrassing clip I’ll post later this week.
