Zoom B3 mulitFX and preamp. I use the power amp from my IRT60 if I need it.

Can the same pedal board be used in multiple categories?

Glad to see so many new submissions. And thanks to everyone who picked up the torch to help me out with this whole thing. You guys are MVPs. Fretless and Ajax have been ruthless about bumping this thread and calling out folks on the main forums. You guys rules.

haha. Well, I suppose thanks. The room used to be worse before I did a one day makover last year.ajaxlepinski wrote:Dick Butter Nuts wrote:Good to see Endtime in the BOTR home studio/recording thread.

I’ll be honest my old band jammed in one of the seediest spots in Chicago for 15 years. The old Zenith TV manufacturing building to be exact. Inside that building, there were no laws! Lol. The bands made up a very small portion of the occupants. Without exaggeration I guarantee people were murdered in there, Overdosed and died and the two guys who stayed IN the building and “watched” over the jam spots both died of cancer in their 50’s. This place was filled with asbestos, disease and other contaminates I’d probably prefer not to know. And it’s been condemned for 5 years now, and had a pretty raging fire last year. So you know, that place was housing plenty of homeless and other degenerates. While I didn’t LIVE there, I did spend 6-8 hours a week in there for 15 years and I’m quite certain some health issues may be attributed to my time there.
Anyway, that’s just a long way of saying making music in that environment sorta becomes a part of you and before the “makeover” of my room, it really did resemble the filth of that practice space. The problem was, this was in my house!! Lol. I much prefer it now. There might be a tangle of cables, tools and lyrics/notes, it’s really not TOO hard ore
