One of the best review I've ever seen. Very useful thanks from Italy
Cheers mate! I'm glad you found it useful ; )
Good call on the soft case vs flight case. I noticed the difference in quality between whats offered between the 3 series and the 4 and 5 series so I reckon I'll go for the soft case as I'm only playing locally!
Nice!
Perfect video! It helped me a lot to decide on what pedalboard I really need:) thanks
Awesome! Glad I could help, cheers ; )
the 2.1 looks perfect for me, I play bass in jazz, all i need is my eq (2 slots), octave pedal (1 slot), chorus (1 slot), and delay which doubles as a loop
probs gonna buy it soon
Awesome! I'm glad you found the video helpful. If you're interested, you can check out the bass rig I built here: czcams.com/video/CUM1HCK4v1Q/video.html
Which power supply below the 2.1 please ??
ABS Cases for these seems good as well vs flight cases. They're not that heavy duty as flight cases but the removable lid is a good feature. They said you shouldn't suppose to play with the bottom part on but am doing it no problem.
Nice!
I don't understand why the Tres isn't designed for three rows.
im interested in the 3.0 but i have a vox v847 wah pedal. according to the dimensions of the board, the wah pedal would over hang by 1-2cm. do you think the 3.0 would still fit in the soft case with a pedal overhanging by a couple cm?
Regards the soft case, I'd say that some slight overhang would probably be fine... (Hopefully.) Otherwise, if you think you might add more pedals in the future, you could just go for the Quad 4.1. Yes, it's slightly bigger. But I'd still consider it a relatively compact option. Hope that helps ; )
@@guitariq thanks a lot for the reply I decided to go for the 3.0.
What power blocks fit in that cavity. The rockboard one isn't available.
I've was able to fit this one under the Duo 2.1: gatorco.com/product/pedal-board-power-supply-5-outputs-gtr-pwr-5/ But it's extremely tight! So you're probably safer with something a little more slimline. I think Mono and EBS both just announced some cool compact power supplies. But I haven't tried them. Anyway, hope that helps!
Is the soft case waterproof?
It wouldn't be 'waterproof' in the traditional sense-I wouldn't go swimming with it ; ) That said, it's quite thick. So I wouldn't be worried about my stuff getting rained on between my car and the venue. If that's what you mean?
@@guitariq Thx!
The latter is what I'm worried about.
I wish the Duo series could use the Mods :(
Yeah, I guess they figure smaller, simpler rigs don't need them. But that would be a cool option for sure ; )
