Less is more - My pedalboard september 2026 (french indie rock) in c/guitars@lemmy.world
[–] [S] 2 points 1 month ago

I use several amps, the ones that are available on stage when there's a gig! I always try to have the best clean sound so that I can then drive my sounds from the pedalboard. All knobs set to noon at first on the amp, then I listen to my clean sound, I adjust Low/Mid/High to my taste, and then the main Volume, and that's all for the amp.

    I shrinked my pedalboard from 11 or 12 pedals to only 6 pedals!

    What I learned after a few gigs with my band:

    • Only use pedals you really need for your songs, don't add pedals because you think you could have a use for it in the future.
    • Behringer Vintage Phaser is such a great pedal, great vintage tones!
    • I'm impressed by the T.Rex Chorus/Flanger pedal, very precise settings and beautifull sounds
    • The Joyo Uzi is really great with all the settings available to shape the sounds and the "bites" of the distorsion
    • I tried several Tremolo effects, I always come back to the Behringer Ultra Tremolo, even if it's a very cheap pedal, it does the job!

    This is my main driver these days with my band.

    Chain of effects:

    • Tuner Kokko
    • Vol/Wah Sonicake
    • Tube Screamer (overdrive)
    • Joyo Uzi (disto)
    • Grumbly Wolf Fredric Effects (fuzz with octaver switch)
    • Small Tone Electro Harmonics (phaser with a little boost)
    • Twister T. Rex (Flanger/Chorus with pretty nice settings)
    • Anamnesis Echo SubDecay (delay)
    • Ultra Tremolo Behringer (very efficient)
    • Heavenly Lake ToneCity (reverb+delay)
    • Ditto X2 (looper with Half speed and Reverse settings)

    Yes I would, it's a really clean and polished web browser with lots of cool stuff inside (but the more you use stuff, the more it consumes ressources, like if you use the included mail client and the RSS feed client...).

    If you're looking for a very light one, maybe have a look at Zen Browser, a fork of Firefox.

    As far as I remember, it's actually a variation of the famous Windows 11 wallpaper that I got a few years ago on Reddit, didn't keep the link but there was a bunch of these with some added light effects. It's a cool way to grab the attention of people around me :)

    This is my Gnome desktop right now. Nothing too fancy, just the usual Gnome 49 with extensions (Blur my shell, AutoAccentColour, System Monitor, etc.), a Win11 inspired background and two apps running (Vivaldi browser playing a Youtube video and Kew music player in a terminal).

    I play around with configs and add-ons from time to time but i ALWAYS move back to this Gnome designed desktop and it fits my needs.

    Amateur guitarist here, posting from Paris, France.

    My initial intention was to reduce my pedalboard to very few essential effects pedals... Finally I'm adding some new ones... so I ended up with 11 pedals (starting with 8 ones).

    Brands are Kokko, Ammoon, Behringer, TC Electronics, Dunlop, Mooer, Ibanez.

    Chained like this: Comp > Wah > Overdrive > Distortion > Fuzz > Phaser > Tremolo > Mods (chorus/Vibrato/Rotary) > Delay > Reverb > Looper

    Some updates:

    I'm playing pop rock and hard rock songs in a four piece band, with some "space rock" bits here and there.

    The looper is essentialy a training device when I'm alone at home. This model allows for a Reverse effet and I intend to use it live when I'm comfy with it.

    The Kokko Space is a really nice reverb for the cheap price, cranked up to max it produces a very cool and subtle dreamy/spacy effect.

    The Behringer Vintage Phaser is the best phaser I could test (and I tested a lot of cheap phasers...). It's very smooth and creamy, and doesn't boost the signal when switched on (more expansive pedals tend to do it...).

    Any comment?

    What launcher do you use? I'm looking to drop Kvaesitso in c/android@lemdro.id
