Let's see those FM9 rigs!

You are correct regarding the FM9 functionality, but I only have one expression pedal on the board. That expression is connected to PDL 1 on the FM9 via one TRS cable. The TT-2 switch is connected to both PDL 2 and PDL 3 on the FM9 with two regular TS cables.
I think @Tremonti was referencing a different post, though the timing was unfortunate.
I am also curious to see @Jazzmaster1414 's reply to see if there's some kind of expression over MIDI business going on somwhere.

Nothing too fancy, two FC pedals and a MIDI out to my synthesizer so that switching scenes can switch patches on it.
Output direct to the PA and a Laney FR-212 which you can see glowing in the background here:

How did you fix the FM9 in this case?

I spent quite a bit of time researching and designing a board for my FM9, and I thought I would share the result in case it helps someone else as this forum assisted me 👍

The Board itself is a RockBoard TRES 3.3. Along with the FM9, the top includes a Shure GLXD16+ Wireless, a Fractal EV-2 Expression Pedal and a Mission Engineering TT-2 Switch. Mounting is done with 3M Dual Lock and 1" x 1/4" aluminum flat bars were used as risers to secure the FM9.

Underneath is a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus, Mesa/Boogie Midi Matrix and RockBoard MOD 2 Patch Bay that consolidates the three unique midi functions I need to control four different Boogie amps; along with cable routing for 4-Cable Method. The Pedal Power and Midi Matrix are also mounted with 3M Dual Lock. 1" x 1" Panduit Slotted Wire Duct was used for routing and protection of cables.
I saved each of your pics to a folder on my PC for future reference, as I might copy you in some way with my FM9. You and I have similar design aesthetics, as I did something similar a couple of years ago with my old HX Effects board:

Seriously, nice job, I love how clean you made it. A little wide for my taste, but you absolutely nailed the form and function.
 
So I have a friend who made me a board for my FM3. I upgraded to a FM9 about a year ago and thankfully he made a bigger board for me!
I didn’t have the confidence to drill my EV2, and didn’t like the feel/size of the Mission SP1 so I got a Hotone Press so I can switch the wah on and off. Works great.
Have a splitter underneath for my Parker Fly so I can run a piezo and electric signal separately. Plus, there’s a little room above the FM9 if I decide to grab another pedal or two (probably won’t, but…)

Is anybody using a FM9 with the XPND2 by daddario?

When I was looking for a board for my FM9 I considered that one. However, I think the FM9 is a bit wider than one half of the XPND2 at full width meaning that part of it would sit on the other half which is slightly lower\higher, meaning the FM9 wouldn't sit perfectly flat.

That shouldn’t be a huge issue I believe. Biggest question is though: how the heck do you Velcro it
