my updated and clean pedal board

[Andy]

all finished and tidy, best part is the pedal snake, one cable for everything.
fx loop send/return ...main input and... power.

the wall wart stays with the amp so 18vdc runs thru the line ..no noise or signal tomfoolery whatsoever.. for the price of a good pedal ..I love it!
plus I still have a line left over if I need an amp or channel switcher or annother voltage line.

the delay and chorus run thru the efx loop

Nice. I take it that green sucker is the BYOC compressor?

How'd you secure the three cables (input, FX send, FX return) together?

[Andy]

yes thats the compressor,really nice unit.

the pedalsnake has all the connections on each end, it's simply a matter off making the connections with the type of plug needed for the application..I have the excess tied under the board.

it saves the cost of 3 good cables and not needing a power strip at the board is great !

[Eric]

Huh, that's cool. So is it this thing (http://www.pedalsnake.com/osCommerce/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=30)?

[Andy]

yes thats it ..

for my setup> main input,fx loop ,power (which is a very common rig) the whole system was $113 including shipping,
I figure the cost of 3 quality cables at say $20 a piece and eliminating a power run to the board..... the pedal snake made sense.

plus it eliminates ground loop issues because the amp and pedals are grounded to the same point nomatter what the gig situation is.

ofcourse setup at the gig is a snap.

Yeah, that looks really cool. I didn't even know they made such a thing. Nice!

Andy - your board looks great.

Yep, I've been using a Pedal Snake for the last two years and it's cut my set up time in half.
