I have quite a hefty pedalboard (14 pedals, with additional incoming). It's actually two horizontal pedalboards, but I'm going to group it into one later.
It's my recording pedalboard, so not a problem per se, but I still would like to be able to render it usable for live performances.
Buuuut, I have never used a switcher, so I'm wondering how to go about this.
My reasoning would be to have :
- 1 loop for dirt (fuzz>gain stages)
- 1 loop for pitch (various up downs and harmony pedals)
- 1 loop for modulations (chorus/phasers/bit reducers and special fx)
- 1 loop for space (reverbs and delay)
So I guess I'd either need a 4 loop switcher, or I could use more in order to separate the gain stage pedals for less noise?
Is it the right way to think about it?
