OK here is what I think is the final- or close to- iteration of it.

The Pedal Power 2+'s had to go. They really didn't power reliably a lot of this. They sold fast!

The Voodoo Labs switcher also really wasn't necessary. These effects don't really combine and they are all true bypass anyway. The only ones that combine are the modfactor and timefactor, and the timefactor has a chorused delay setting anyway. The switcher is still available on eBay if anybody wants it: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... %3DSelling

I decided not to put the Tourmaster footswitch on it at this time. It takes up a lot of space, and I don't always bring the effects with me anyway.

So, here it is! Comments, rounds of applause, and bad jokes always appreciated!

:confused: :m9: :bash: :bleh: :shocked: :inlove: :loco: :cheers: :boxer: :codeak: :checkthisout: :worship: :clap:

I like the Modfactor a lot! I haven't had time yet to create my own sounds with it- But the built in sounds are great! I like the phaser, the flanger, the vibrato, and the tremelo in particular.

The Modfactor was, oddly enough, one of the ones that was problematic with the PP2+. It would connect to one of the front receptables and power up fine at home. But at two different gigs in two different places- no go. The Timefactor would power up, but not the modfactor. This is a little strange since they both have the same wall wart. I can only assume that something that is in the power at most bars- lights, jukeboxes, whatever- did not agree with how the Modfactor and PP2+ interacted. It was annoying.

I am hoping that just a regular old plug track will power everything fine pretty much anywhere. My friend suggested that it was important to use the power supplies that come with more specialized units like these, and I think he is correct.

The filter effects on the Modfactor almost rival the Moog, and it has a decent ring modulator in it.

It's fun, but what a project/headache this was!
:doh: :rock: :D
