Plenty of people have made it to heaven without Strymon pedals, and without any guitar related equipment in general! I truly believe excellence in worship is a calling cast on my life, and these are just tools that simply help to facilitate the practical side of that for me. That doesn’t mean that God doesn’t move without them, with different ones, or with less of them!
Matej, this is a great question and one I had to do some thinking on to come up with! I am using a 12v output on my CS12 into an automotive 12v to 5v DC to DC converter- the 5v leads of the converter are connected to the corresponding pos/neg leads of a micro USB cable that goes directly to the G10. I’ve been using this setup for a year now and have had absolutely zero issues, I highly recommend it!
Thank you man! I figured it might be a nice insight into the things people don't think about that are crucial to making a board work. I am using stuff from the Ownhammer Revolution pack to take full advantage of the capabilities of the Iridium- if you'd like, I can pull up the IR manager and tell you which exact ones!
@@aidanmiller2773 you’ve got a really nice sound in your livestream. I generally use the Hislop IR’s, which are perfect for the round and chime models but I can’t find the perfect one for the punch. I have the Ownhammer core tone bundle so maybe one of the MR82 ones? Also, do you have to use a different IR on each side to get the stereo spread like in your video? Is there a way to get it with identical IR’s on each side? I just don’t notice much of a difference on my cheap headphones lol.
@@erikhartley2494 Thank you again! Personally, I would definitely try out one of the 412/half or full stack type cabs like you mentioned in that Ownhammer bundle- it should get you a lot closer to something that sounds like a traditional cranked Plexi. As for the stereo effects, that is all from the Haas effect IRs in the pack! It simulates a stereo field by slightly delaying one side of the signal- they are both technically the same exact IRs with the exception of one being delayed by a matter of milliseconds, creating that huge sound. I have also attempted using two different IRs on both sides, but to me it doesn't give anywhere near the same stereo field as the IRs using the Haas effect do. In my opinion, it really is the best route to go for a great stereo field on the Iridium.
@@erikhartley2494 www.ownhammer.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=215_216&products_id=449 Check this out- this is the full bundle, but any pack that has the TrueStereo designation or mentions r(Evolution) will have these Haas effect IRs included!
So many questions: 1.Is the iridium cab sim that much better than the ones in the stomp. I’m a Iridium user, but considered buying a hx stomp for part of a back up rig. 2. I put my iridium last in chain because I frequently use the headphone jack and still want to hear my delays. Did you A/B the placement of the iridium before/after your wet effects? I estimate the difference to be minimal. 3. I also have my tuner mid way through my chain but wonder why you are not using the tuner out on the VPjr.
Hi Philip! Thanks for taking the time to watch. I really am a bigger fan of the tones I get out of the Iridium amps rather than the Stomp ones, even using the same IRs. I've been very happy to this date about using the Stomp as just a dynamics/routing processor. I did A/B/x blind test having pre/post effects for the Iridium (mostly out of curiosity) and definitely was able to tell a difference, but neither way is especially terrible. It perhaps makes a bigger difference for me than others given that I run the Iridium pretty dirty by default. I choose not to use the tuner out as I always want to be able to have some sort of hard mute in the chain that is independent of a volume pedal, especially given how often I have to do maintenance on my VP JRs! Hope this helps some- if you've got more questions, let me know!
Super useful and informative video - thank you for sharing! Have you tried (or have any opinions on) any of the Strymon drive pedals like the Riverside or Sunset?
Thank you so so much Matt! I have not had the opportunity to try out either option, but I have only heard great things about any of their gain based pedals, whether it be drive or compression. I very much would like to try the Sunset out for the MIDI based control and programmability to fit in with the rest of my setup.
Hi Matt! The riser is a standard off the shelf model 2.5 inch riser from FIX Pedalboards- its exact dimensions elude me at the moment but I definitely can get them if you need them. I’d highly recommend!
Hi Duesy_Sam! I could share my exact preset with you if that's what you really desire, but it's probably not what you want for a couple reasons. In my case, I'm simply using the HX Stomp as an EQ/compressor/systems processor, so my standard preset just has some EQ and compression and no amp/cab simulations of any kind because the Iridium takes care of all of that. If you truly are using the same setup as me (running the Iridium through the Stomp FX loop), I would advise creating an Iridium and corresponding Stomp preset for each guitar that you play regularly and add effects to taste.
Hey there! At the moment, I am using a partscaster relic Tele that I built, a Reverend Flatroc (which is what you hear in this video), a Classic Player 60s Strat, and a Taylor Solidbody SB2SP.
Great question man! I forgot to mention this in the video, but I am using the Rockboard FlaX MIDI cables with the plastic bracket removed which helps the cables fit just a little bit better. They are cheap, good quality, and I would highly recommend them!
Why do you guys always have to label everything "Worship" . It's a pedal board, and a fine one at that, but theres nothing "worship" about it! What's wrong with "My awesome 2020 Pedalboard Demo" .
I figured that this is more appropriately labeled as a worship pedalboard as it is primarily used in the context of a church setting, and wanted to reach more growing players who may enjoy this type of content. Thanks for watching!
2 Chronicles 5: 13 The trumpeters and musicians joined in unison to give praise and thanks to the Lord . Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and other instruments, the singers raised their voices in praise to the Lord and sang: “He is good; his love endures forever.” Then the temple of the Lord was filled with the cloud, and the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the temple of God.
Very nice board. I'm an atheist, so this is going to be a bit spicy and anecdotal. Nearly all these 'worship' board owners are white. Also, why is it Called a worship board? Why not a pedal board? They both function the same correct? I realize the amp and speaker location / needs for a church maybe different but still, it's not all together a vastly different user experience. Anyway, these silly observations and questions are coming from a place of curiosity and slight irritation.
Hi Tom, thanks for the kind words about the board! Attributing this as a worship pedalboard is primarily to give an accurate description about layout. While you are correct that any pedalboard functions fundamentally the same, the environment of using it for worship at church gatherings can necessitate a couple different key functions (namely the ability to access a wide variety of tones quickly). Titling it as such is also helpful to those interested in building a rig with similar functionality.
I see no reason to wear shoes in my own room in the comfort of my own house; it's not a matter of income/not being able to afford them. Thanks for watching!

Can we talk about how that transition at 19:53 worked so well 😍
Great tones across the board Pal! Thanks for featuring us man! -t
S/O to the granny rocking that SG in that first service clip. I want her to be my granny
Oh my, that is a lot of money in your board. Great job and tone dude!
It’s been a fun project and a labor of love for sure! Thanks for the support and watching!
Nice build Aidan! I'll have to show my board off soon once I've dialed in my midi =P
Awesome board!!
Only thing I'd change is I'd put the volume pedal after the drives so that the driven tone would stay consistent through swells.
Nice video and great tones
Thanks so much Matheus!
Amazing setup! Is that Art Dibox passive or active? Thoughts on why you chose one over the other...please. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing - nice you can fit that DI under the board! Great tones, PTL!
Thanks for watching, Pete!
Great tour and great sound. I'm in Lawrenceville Ga, if you ever are out this way hit me up!
Thank you so much man! I will be sure to get in touch if I get the chance to pass through there.

Great video ! What is the intro theme ? Sounds familiar to me i love it !
Thank you so much Thomas! The intro is an original song by me that is going to be on an upcoming album.
I would love to have the 1981. Such a sweet pedal
Man, it's so worth it. Practically the only drive pedal I even use anymore!
If you can’t afford one, get a ProCo RAT
Aidan your board is really well done and everything in the chain is placed brilliantly!!!!!
if you could could you let me know what Ir's your running?
Thank you so much for the kind words Matthew! I am using the Ownhammer r(Evolution) Debut Bundle (specifically the 212 AC30 Haas IRs).
How do you power that line 6 relay g10? Do you power it in pedalboard power supply? it is for USB and I can’t figure it out..
Matej, this is a great question and one I had to do some thinking on to come up with!

Would the HX Effects operate similarity as the Stomp in this set up?

The all video and description was better then the sounds demo At the end :))
Nice pedal board. Lots of boutique pedals.
Nice seeing someone else have a gate on their board. Im surprised more players dont use them.
I agree! It's a super useful tool, especially in noisy environments with single coils.
You gotta make a tutorial on how you set all that stuff up

Hi Duane! As detailed in the video, I'm using an Ear Fuzz Effects 30x18 flat pedalboard surface. Thanks for watching!
Awesome board!
Thank you so much man! Thanks for watching :)
that Klon was just featured on Music Is Win i think. he got it off Wish for like $30.
Interesting! I had no idea- it’s a great pedal for sure.
That one was hand wired in Canada! -t

@@aidanmiller2773 thank you so much for sharing but unfortunately I returned the hx stomp to GC already. Your sound is amazing. Keep it up
It sounds like he's not using compression
?
I am not! I have the ability to through the Stomp if I so desire, but I am happy with my tone without compression at the moment.
Do you use a monitor of any kind for stage volume?
Hi Bryan, I do not! I play only using IEMs at all my gigs, and I'm more than satisfied with the results. Thanks for watching!
