Did I go too far?

[BeZo]

I put a phone mount on my pedalboard. I use a Quad Lock phone case and have mounts for my car and both my bicycles. I made one for a mic stand mount a while back too.

This one is neat because it covers the power supply perfectly, and the USB-C cable for the Shure wireless battery charger can disconnect and plug into my phone.

I wish I could show it with my phone plugged in, but my camera is on my phone.

nah

 

[ConcreteVampire]

Why?

 

[BeZo]

I just charged my phone on my pedalboard.

 

[Al Chapo]

Update your Equipboard so we know which model phone you're copping that sweet toan with!

Great idea really. I could watch my sticks and sports while jamming live

Now the audience will always accuse you of phoning it in

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

What tubes are you running and how do you bias it?

 

[Meanjoegreene]

Being forced to play some BS covers over the years I would have loved a little distraction at times, ha ha

Both my bass amps run 6 6550s. The SVT CL is still stock, and I put Svetlanas in the SVT 2 Pro. I bias them cold for the big clean bass sound and then pummel them with pedals from the pedalboard.

 

[Reverend Bow]

It doesn't cause any random digital noise on your signal?

If I have my phone around my amps, I get some wierdness

You'll be able to cop tutes while playing live just by glancing down at the board.

 

[BeZo]

Yeah. I forget my own lyrics often. That's why I made the holder for my mic stand.

If you walk around your whole life with crutches you will always need to have them. Just me, but when I see rock bands using music stands and i pads I'm not going to stay for the show.

Agreed. It's not for live. It's for practice. I would never use a music stand for lyrics live, but they are all over the practice spot. We have dry erase boards with song charts and lyrics on them. Eventually, after enough practice, they are no longer needed. But, until I develop the habits, I need to get my words right. If I don't, I end up solidifying the wrong words, and it's much harder to fix bad habits than it is to make good ones.

Cool. I got a ration of shit for telling some people that on another site.
