Let's see those FM9 rigs!

Left to right:
Sliders 1 and 2 do delay-only wetness and Fletcher-Munson compensation.

Purple switches are momentary and latching CC switches, most often both assigned to Rotary speed.

Next 3 are in the 3 pedal jacks from the FM9, and do momentary Delay Runaway, and usually Amp #2 Channel Toggles A/B and C/B.

Last 2 do momentary Modulation Accent (usually a panning, triggered flange) and Tap Tempo.

Interesting. How are you compensating for Fletcher - Munson? An graphic EQ block that moves from a smile at low volume to flat at high volume?
 
Would 2' cables be long enough to go from the FM9 jacks to the side modules on a Temple Duo 34, or should I go with 3'?
 
Ok, which screws and washers is everyone using to mount their unit to a Temple board? What about expression pedal mounting?

I bought these screws, Small Parts Steel Machine Screw, Zinc Plated Finish, Pan Head, Phillips Drive, Meets DIN 7985, 16mm Length, Fully Threaded, M3.5-0.6 Metric Coarse Threads (Pack of 100) https://a.co/d/bIZmA0Y

And these washers, Small Parts 316 Stainless Steel Flat Washer, Plain Finish, Meets DIN 125, M6 Hole Size, 6.4mm ID, 12mm OD, 1.6mm Nominal Thickness (Pack of 100) https://a.co/d/i3jXTWQ

The washers obviously are too big.

I re-used the original screws for my FAS pedals and just didn't use the rubber feet. I was only able to get 2 screws per pedal to match up to the Temple but they stay put just fine.

Size #4 thin aluminum washers. Local hardware/home improvement store. You can buy individual ones there and not waste your cash on qty 100.

I've mounted an FC-12, 2 FM9s and an FM3 to Temple boards with the longer screws and the feet on. All of them were able to line up all 4 corner screws...

@Ledvedder - those screws appear to be the right ones.

Edit:

Thanks to @Deadpool_25 for pointing out that @Sully0556 was talking about expression pedals. I mount my Mission pedals using 3 screws and opted for the Temple medium plates to mount my EV-2.

Pretty sure they're talking the EV's now. The main units mount with all 4 screws. EV-2s don't quite line up that well.
 
Does anyone know what size screws the mission expression pedal feet mounting use? I need to order some longer ones for wooden pedal board mounting.

The rig is complete! For now at least. Worked hard on this! @fractalaudiosystems FM9 Turbo is the brains of the board. I have it mounted to a @templeboards Duo 34 alongside two @fractalaudiosystems EV-1 expression pedals. I installed the IEC mod and have it connected it to a Furman AC-215 which is mounted underneath the board. This provides power to both the FM9 and the dual USB-A/USB-C modules for charging devices on stage, and still leaves the option to add LEDs underneath the board. I added a USB-B module to make connecting the FM9 to a computer more convenient. For the I/O I installed four Neutrik XLR mods for Output 1 L+R to send to my onstage monitors & Output 2 L+R sending to FOH. I used @cabletechniques Low Profile XLR connectors and Canare for all of the cables I built (this project required me to learn how to solder!). I also added a locking 1/4” Neutrik mod for connecting my guitar. For patching to Input 1 I used a Low Profile SP-600 connector & Mogami W2524 cable. It’s sitting atop the bottom half of a custom flight case I had built for it. I love the design of the case because all I have to do it remove the top lid and I’m ready to play! I tried to make this rig as tidy and functional as possible and couldn’t be more stoked on the result!

Is this the locking Neutrik jack that you used? How does it connect from the inner side of the jack to the FM9 input? https://westcoastpedalboard.com/product/nuetrik-nj3fp6c-bag/
 
I bought these to run from the back of my FM9 to the Temple module under my board. Just realized that they won't fit through the holes in my Temple board, so I'm returning them.
