Pedalboard Rundown


Last week I put together V2 of my “Death Star” pedalboard. This is centred around my Mezzabarba MZero Overdrive amp and is mostly for use with my band Black Sky Research!

I play through a few sounds within the context of a track, talk you through what’s going on and play you some patches in isolation.

RJM Mastermind PBC Loops:

Loop 1: Digitech Whammy
Loop 2: Boss FZ-2
Loop 3: Wampler Mini Ego Comp
Loop 4: Bogner Blue
Loop 5: Analogman Chorus
Loop 6:
Loop 7: MXR Smart Gate
Loop 8: Xotic Volume Pedal
Loop 9: Eventide H9
Loop 10: Source Audio Collider

To provide a better experience for you, I disable adverts on all of my videos (except those that YouTube monetises for copyright reasons). This is to cultivate an environment that’s free of distractions and intrusions. As a result, I don’t earn a penny from YouTube but, for me, it’s worth the trade off.

You can support me in continuing to create ad-free, high-value content through the above channels!

Thank you, folks!
