Nordland ODR-C
I absolutely love this. I've been through a lot of pedals looking for the low gain sound in my head, and from the moment I plugged this in, I knew that it hit the spot. The combination of lower mid thickness, chime and articulation at the top end, and touch-sensitive response is just magic.
T-Rex Mudhoney
This had been off the board for a while. Basically, I had been struggling to find an amp EQ setting which worked both with this fat beast, and also with the various low-gainers I was trying. Many of the latter tended to be pretty bright (at least the way I was setting them up), and the contrast always seemed too stark.
Next to the ODR-C however, this works beautifully for those raunchier rock moments. And stacking the ODR-C into the Mudhoney is just ridiculous. Jonny Greenwood eat your heart out (yes, I know he actually used a Shredmaster - but to my ears this combo can get pretty close.)
Mr Black Bloodmoon
I've never really found a reverb I got on with. I tried a few with loads of options, thinking that with the ability to switch between spring / hall / plate / modulated modes etc I would be bound to find the right sounds, but I just got lost and frustrated. With this pedal the simple three-knob setup offers a really useful range of tones, from traditional to downright spooky. Somehow, at the same time it manages to make it hard to dial in a bad sound.

I notice you've got the MIDIbox and only one pedal that needs it.
Does the Mercury 7 really not work with MIDI direct from the controller without it?

Current Metro 16 board. Very happy with it running into a Marshall SV20 combo with attenuator. Moved the fuzz in front of the vibe for once but will have to get another Pickdropper mini treble booster to go after the vibe to tame the fizz.

Boss RV-6
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
Its not massive but its the latest incarnation of my beginners board, tuner lives off to the side (have a petersen strob clip as well) footswitch is for the H+K tubemeister. The equipment is far better than I am (makes a better tone without me touching it to be honest) but I enjoy making noises. Only thing I'm struggling to find is a distortion that I like, tried a RC Fang, Pugilist, Joyo Uzi, had a GT1 so tried a few in there. Just can't seem to find something I like. For now I'm going to concentrate on using the Lead channel for more metal stuff and see how that goes.
As I'm improving in my playing I'm finding more useable tones so perhaps in a couple on months I'll find what I'm after.
I'm liking the all Boss boards, and that Boss OD200 looks like a good pedal but a bit spendy for my budget.
Then there’s this one that sits by my “working from home” desk:
