A couple years ago I started putting a rack system together for church. I do not want to keep dragging my 1974 super lead out of the house. I bought a Synergy SN-2, a BE-BB, and a HBE. I picked up a Mosvalve 962, ran the dry sound into an old Marshall cab with greenbacks. For 6 months or so I used my pedalboard for effects (pitch shift, chorus, reverb, delay) while I researched what effects processor to get. Found a deal on a pcm 80 and bought it. Very quickly I realized I was in over my head, you did not dial it in like you would a processor meant for live guitars (g major, etc). It did sound incredible, I just did not have the desire to learn how to use it. Sold it, bought a spx90. You can only use 1 effect at a time, sold it.
During this time I bought a Mosvalve tube amp, one with 4 6L6 tubes, sold the 962.
Bought a mpx1, programming was going to sink me too so I bought Italo’s presets, all I can say is wow! They are good. I run the Synergy preamps through the marshall cab for the dry tone. I run direct out left/right into the mpx1, one side out to the mosvalve, the other into an EH 44 Magnum, both into guitar cabs with celestion speakers. I feel like God is coming through my rig, it sounds awsome.
I’ll take some pictures next week when I am at church.
I mean i currently have a pedal tuner, but i think it would be easier to go with a rack one as i bought the Replifex now.
