ok so Im dabbling with the Idea of creating 2 whole gig rigs that I can choose between depending on the upcoming show/situation.
I do own a Kemper that I will be keeping for mostly home/recording use and the odd (hopefully) massive show situations so thats not included in what Im talking about.
What I am talking about and planning to build is :
Bigger show/Primary Rig 1 -
Randall Diavlo RD20 Tube amp - Live in amp case
Laney 2x12 (already own)
pedalboard with: -
Pod X3 live for effects with the Randall and channel switching
Line 6 g10 wireless pedal
Keeley compressor (always on subtly)
ISP decimator
Korg Pitchblack
Digitech Whammy DT
Boss GE7
so always use a Cab with it etc.
Pedals powered by T Rex Chameleon
Smaller show/backup rig no.2 -
Laney 2x12 (optional)
small pedalboard only rig: -
Laney Pulse tube pedal
Boss NS2
Line 6 g10 (yes buying 2)
Digitech whammy DT (yes buying 2)
Maxon OD808
Seymour Duncan Power stage 170 pedal
Torpedo CAB
Di Box
Signal splitter.
FS1 to change channel on the Pulse
Pedals powered by 2nd T rex chameleon
So this smaller rig is designed to cover all bases but does not offer effects. Can be used with a cab AND go direct at the same time OR just 1 or the other if I cant use a cab for whatever reason.
Am I mad to longterm plan to have 2 rigs depending on the show?. One using Amp head and Cab with loads of effects and another thats really small, limited to only being a pedalboard but offers no effects but is quick and simple.
Also means doubling up on some purchases (like 2 wireless units for each etc)
Has anyone else designed/created 2 seperate rigs like this to cover all bases?.
Like If Im headlining RANDALL TUBE AMP all the way, If we are opening (out of towners) or middle of the set, use pedal board only setup instead so to not have to wait for tube amp to heat up to optimal sound/temp?
