And how do we know that's really maple?

It is a cut off scrap from a high end maple floor job .

If you stopped using the crank you could make that even smaller:-)

Graeme , The attached crank arm in the pic is already 165 mm rather then 170 mm in length . Adriaan , 5 mm shorter is what makes it compact . ( my apologies for the high jack humor interjection )

Wolf, don't you think your design may be susceptible to a 60 cycle hum?

Bill, tgo

Good point Bill , conceptually I was hoping that if I pedal backwards at 60 RPM that the hum would be canceled out like a kinetic hum canceler .

Bet it works well in a velodrome.

Paul , Yes , Velodrome = No Brakes

Jonathan, please excuse my half baked attempt at humor .

Getting back on topic , I am impressed with the compact aspect of the Eventide H9. I have not tried it yet but intend to. I remember Eventide as having been in the high end of pro audio for decades in their manufacturing of quality outboard rack gear .

Got my "grab 'n go" pedal board together just in time for a big open Grateful Dead/ classic rock Jam/Party tonight. (If anyone local to the Bay Area wants to come by and play, it's in Concord tonight starting at 6 p.m. Let me know if you're interested and I'll send you the info). While putting this together, I thought I would still have to schlepp a volume pedal and wah - then I found the Morley mini-wah/volume. Perfect for my mini board! Bill, tgo

Bill?looks great!

It's amazing how many tonal possibilities you've got in such a small space.

I bought oner of the Mooer flangers (the ElecLady). Very impressed with the sound quality considering the size and price. I also have that Malekko envelope filter. Very nice for a nano sized EF.

Where'd you get the Morley? I haven't seen them anywhere. I know they're on the 'bay, but I wanted to see one in person.

lbpesq · « **Reply #28 on:** November 15, 2014, 01:52:14 PM »

I got the Morley off Amazon. $90. Works quite well for what it is. Only bitch is that the volume doesn't come on for the first third of the pedal travel, but I'm getting used to it. The light green pedal is a Mooer Mod Factory with 11 different sounds, including phaser, auto wah, touch wah, flanger, tremolo, vibrato, chorus, etc. Some of the sounds are pretty bad but several are useable. I put the EP on top since I leave it on all the time - great pedal at any size. The Slow Engine is a great copy of the iconic Boss Slow Gear. The last one on the left is an Eno analog delay. Costs about $30 new off of eBay. I thought I'd try it on a flyer, but wasn't expecting much. I was shocked at how good it is. Even has a blend knob.

Bill, tgo
