Let's see those FM9 rigs!

[Joe Bfstplk]

Ev-2 maybe?

That might fit on a Duo24 if you remove the FM9's end caps and squeeze things tight on the board. A set of the Perspex spacers from @ZenRigs Man and a pedal riser will help and make room for underlighting with LED lights....

 

[Vhalen50]

Aren't the classic 2 and JR Max the same width? 12.5"

yes. but the classic 2 is 24" long and the jr max is 28" long. Basically allows 2 exp pedals or a exp and a bonus slot where i put a misc pedal and my glx

 

[Uncle Jesse]

If you're tight on space and don't need a toe button the Moyo expression pedals are only 2" wide. I love mine.

My current home setup:

• Fm9 Out1 to my mixer and the into stereo JBLs Eon612
• Fm9 Out2 to an Headrush FRFR108
• Fm9, ext pedals and FRFR108 mounted on a base with wheels to move where i want.

I really need these guys to make this in an expression version. Apparently they're planning on it but I don't know when that'll happen.

Thanks! I definitely considered trying that but they said they're going to "work on [an expression version] asap". Figured I'd wait as I'm not in a rush. The little Loopi expression knob does do the trick. Just doesn't look as cool lol

Pelican Vault V700 will fit very nice. Very similar to my setup.

Hi, does the vault closed without pushing the FM9? I just got one and when trying to close it pushes on the FM9. The Top lid has a thck and a thin foam sheets glued, I suspect I need to remove the thick one. How many and which type of foam sheets do you have on top and bottom? Thanks!

 

[Max72]

When the Pelican arrives it will have 2 thick and 2 thin sheets of foam inside. I glued one thin sheet to the top cover, and set the other thin sheet on the bottom. I then traced out my DUO-34 onto a thick sheet and cut the opening using a sharp butcher knife and a straight edge, repeat on the second thick sheet. you'll end up with about 1" of foam around the entire edge of the DUO-34. I then glued all the foam to the case to keep it in place. It came out really nice.

Hi, was the top lid foam already glued? Mine is and has a thick and a thin one glued together and I cannto close the vault as it pushes on the FM9. Thanks!

 

[Ledvedder]

Thanks man, that means a lot!

It's the (edited!) Creation Music Aero 24+ currently on sale)
I also got the soft case which is pretty nice and fits well.

The bridge is This One from Fix Pedalboards; I also got a couple D-panels for the sides.

The back panel is from a company called Front Panel Express. I designed the panel on my Mac using their app. They machined it and it came out perfectly. I got it pretty fast too iirc.

Edit: and I can authorize people to use the design for that back panel so it's basically as easy as placing the order.

What dimensions did you choose for the bridge from Fix Pedalboard?

 

[Deadpool_25]

What dimensions did you choose for the bridge from Fix Pedalboard?

23x6x3. It worked perfectly. If I was doing it again I'd choose the same size.

23x6x3. It worked perfectly. If I was doing it again I'd choose the same size.

I think I'm going to try to reproduce what you've done, but with a 20x16 board instead of 24, so the FM9 and pedals go on the board and bridge, and the exp pedals stay on the floor. Now to find the right board...

none of my foam was glued together, I'd contact Pelican and have them replace the foam with un-glued sheets. I had thin on the lid and the bottom and 2 thicks cut to surround the unit. Works great!

 

[LSM]

Someone had to do it.

Hey Taryl,
When did you pick up guitar?

I have a v800. All of my foam was also not glued.

Mounted on a Temple Audio board so no foam on the bottom and a medium thickness on the top for me.

It does require a little pressure to close, which I like because that means it is held firmly in place.

Greetings fellow grass rat! I’m not actually Mr. Dactyl, I just think his mug makes for a great avatar.

 

[jamesf0622]

I think I’ve finally decided on my rig. Been trying to decide on a board that’s compact for smaller dive bar stages. Considering I already have a pedaltrain JR MAX floating around, I based it off that board. Plan on drilling some holes to mount it how others have done with the Templeboards. Extras are a Shure GLXD16+, 535Q mini wah, and a Volume X Mini expression. I have a soft case, but I’d like to get the tour case. Gonna run 4CM through my JP2C so cable management is going to be a priority. Thinking about running a patch bay or a custom front panel to assist. Thoughts and ideas are welcomed!

 

[tifra138gr]

So I went through all of the pages of these rig postings while I was on the waitlist for my FM9. You guys created some epic stuff!

I built something simple and clean. Def not as fancy as some But I just wanted an ATA case that could just drop and connect at a BBQ or a big venue.

Great stuff!
Can you tell about the case? It seems the best thing for me: open the case, wire up, ready to gig. Do you mountain the unit on the case's surface?

A few days ago I received the Red Sound MF10 PRO/M and I can say that I am surprised by how well and loudly it works

 

[papo]

Can you tell me what floorboard that is?

Can you tell me what floorboard that is?

The pedalboard was custom made for me by a friend who owns a company that makes cases and covers for musical instruments based in Europe. Marko Imperia Case
