Swirls and the Lichtlaerm (guessing), explain :)
It’s the Aquaria Klon style overdrive with the EQ and boost functions. A great pedal versatile and excellent sounding.

I have 2 boards - they serve very different purposes.
Board 1:
Made from gaffer tape and mdf panels.
Power: Walrus Audio Canvas Power 15
Objective: Versatility and reliability
Board 2:
Made from gaffer tape and mdf panels.
Origin: It began as an homage to David Gilmour. After becoming curious about parallel delays, I altered my Pink Floyd nostalgia board to include 2 delay pedals running in parallel into an OBNE Signal Blender. This created another opportunity.
As my 2nd hand Earthquaker Rainbow Machine was subjected to unauthorized internal modifications prior to me taking ownership, the switches are prone to popping noises (DC offset). To circumnavigate this problem I use a boss PSM5 (as an AB box) to send the guitar signal to the OBNE Signal Blender directly and via the rainbow machine (+ a reverb). As those pedals are left on and routed to the mixer, the potential for noise was there but it was unexpectedly very quiet. This strategy to quietly use pedals with switch popping issues by selectively routing the guitar signal to or from them is what I call "quarantine". Therefore, this board became known as "Quarantine Floyd". A schematic could be necessary to understand this board. So I've included one.
The following schematic may help understand my intentions with 'Quarantine Floyd" despite some slight inaccuracies.
The EQD Avalanche Run and the Akai Headrush have been swapped on the board (sorry for the slight inaccuracies in the schematic). I also had to swap the EQD Afterneath and the TC Electronic Infinite Sample Sustainer (using as a toneprint reverb effect). The EHX Small Stone is now before the Tube Screamer and an EHX Big Muff has been added.

Nice and crazy boards @The Mad Pride!
I see you keep everything in place with gaffers tape. His is this method working, do you find glue residual on the the pedals once you remove them?

I don't find that the glue sticks to pedals (except for a 15 year old EHX small clone). That one must have been stuck somewhere for a very long time to change the properties of the glue that much. Patch cables, however, are a little more prone to collecting some glue here and there.
I used to think you could make anything out of gaffer tape and coat hangers. But socks cannot be made... at least not comfortable ones.

I used to have an Xotic AC/RC that I should've kept. It was #308 if memory serves.

Awesome collection you’ve got there! Lol the bass board clearly isn’t getting as much love as the rest.

I rarely do bass gigs. And for recording most of the time it's pretty standard tones for bass. I do have a few patches in the fractal for bass special fx sounds.

The front-end pedals are taking shape...mostly...
The SDE-3000 will likely be knocked off when the VP4 shows up. I'm also not sold on the Vibronaut, but these will pretty much make up the front-end of the amp pedals. I have a BE-OD Deluxe on the way that'll replace the regular BE-OD. I'm going to use the VP4 in 4CM essentially, which negated the need for a Whammy pedal. Obviously I can use the VP4's wahs, but I love wahs too much to not have a little collection.
I wish I'd given it a little more thought before ordering the SDE, that was a bit of an impulse purchase.
It sounds great, exactly what I expected from it, but I really won't have a use for it once the VP4 is on there. I also realized I won't need as many loops in a loop switcher as a result of not having a bunch of individual mod pedals I was going to have to get, so I'm back on the looper hunt.
