A well-built pedalboard can stand up to the rigours and demands of regular gigging and rehearsal, not only giving confidence that it will work each on and every occasion, but also saving time setting-up and tearing-down after each session. Using custom patch and power cables with best-practice wiring methods can turn a collection of individual pedals into a solid and reliable gigging rig
Re-work an existing board
If you already have a board which has become a nest of cables which aren’t quite the right length, has grown into a jumbled mess or just needs a refresh; a bit of time on the bench can bring order to the chaos and send noise and crackles packing
Organise loose pedals
Laying out and packing away pedals after every gig, rehearsal or get-together is not only a bit of a pain and quite time consuming, it also adds to the wear and tear on pedal connectors and adds stress and damage to patch cables
Mounting a pedal collection on a solid surface and hooking-up the signal path and power with the right length cables means that everything’s ready to go when it’s needed. It also means that cables aren’t repeatedly flexed and twisted and the pedals’ connectors don’t wear out prematurely
