Finally finished my fly board.

Mjolnir is leave-on and is after the drives (which are set for individual use not stacking).
*An Official Foo-Approved guitarist since Sept 2023.
TAD wah, Fuzzdog Ross compressor, TC Dark Matter (cleans up really well), MojoMojo (meh), Dreamscape for modulation, Flashback2 tor delay and PocketPod for headphone use.
All powered by a Vitoos ISO4+ apart from the Pod which really doesn't like it.
Had a few shifts of pedals in the past few months - certainly very aware that there will never be a 'final' board, just a constant evolution. So this is the current setup - with some lovely new things from a few chaps off this fine website, including the Boss PW-3, the Strymon BlueSky, the OBNE Procession, and the TC Electronic Blood Moon Phaser from GAK, which is surprisingly tasty and much improved over what I remember the Behringer pedals being like.
In fact, I think seven of the above pedals came thanks to this forum, and that's not counting the ones I've moved on either....but at least here we can trade as well as buy and sell. Thanks to @Paul_C and @iheartreverb for their recent trades.
I can't say that the above setup will stay, although I do know I'm not going to get rid of the Whammy, Blues Driver, H2O v3, Ditto X2 or the Digidelay. I've had some of those for years now and can't imagine my board without them.
Of course I'd love a much bigger board with more pedals but currently neither funds nor space allow for that. But you never know. The only things I really really really want at this stage are the EQD Data Corrupter and the Meris Enzo. But for now I'm happy with this setup - I can get some fantastic ambient sounds from it, as well as some experimental stuff. Plus the quality of that Blood Moon Phaser has me tempted to try out some of the other TC Electronic Smorgasbord pedals, especially as most of them are sub £30 now...
It goes tuner into noise gate, which has a send out to the true bypass looper with blend knob (which goes out to the Sliderig and back), then into the Freqout and then the three drives, then into the noise gate's return, then out into the stereo loop switcher on the right, one loop for the Adrenalinn III, the other for everything else...the Mooer octaver, the Whetstone phaser, then the TC SCF and the rest in stereo, the Vertigo trem into the Nemesis, then left and right out (each via a Flashback mini) into the Big Sky, then into the Ditto and back to the looper which goes out to a GFI Cabzeus (for headphones or direct recording) and the Cabzeus's Thru outputs finally feed two amps (a Lazy J20 and an old Deluxe Reverb, or sometimes a Princeton).
It's absurdly complicated, a little embarrassing and I sincerely hope never to rewire the bastard ever again.
But it does work a treat, has very little noise and means I can bypass it easily, or just have drives into amp, or switch all the other gubbins in as and when.
All the studio & live tones of Page & Kossoff you could need. Haven't changed a thing in about 8 months which is a record for me
It’s Boss! with upside down Neunaber WET. The klone has been knocked off by the fantastic FZ-2 and it’s awesome massive gain boost and the DMM has been reinstated TF! PN-2 has been included for that ultimate helicopter chop trem, and addictive it is. Would love to have a DC-2W on there at some point.
