Humm this looks somewhat filmure! You should have let me know what you were going to do I could have sent you a lot of the connectors I had left over from my previous build. How much did it tip the scales at?

Haha. Thanks! I've had most of the parts for quite a while but it's been a long time coming together because of building the lid and waiting on a few bits of hardware. The wood shop on base is only open Thursday- Saturday so that was another reason it took a while.
Mine was a tad heavier but pretty close @ 38lbs I suspect it was the db instruments pedal. My only gripe about it is the housing is made from steel.
Thanks! I have it up and running through the monitors. Next is to connect up to my EVH (only one is connected), the power amp, and the cabs. Theoretically I should be able to do about any setup without rewiring: stereo through my monitors, mono through a cab, stereo through the cabs, wet/dry, wet/dry/wet, ... we'll see how it goes.
Sorry for the delay on this. I didn't realize you were talking about bulkhead connectors that let you plug an XLR into it instead of soldering. That could work, though I didn't try. I don't see the point, though, since the Templeboard holes aren't big enough to fit an XLR head through, so you either have to cut a bunch of bigger holes or break out the soldering iron either way.
Yeah I'm realizing this now. My options at this point are:
Literally using it right now lol. I don't have a ton of experience with wireless units but it seems great. No drop outs or interference. Battery seems to last fairly well though I haven't timed it. I don't usually use its tuner function but it is super simple, works well, and is super easy to see. I was going to get a Shure GLX16 or whatever but it was discontinued so I got this and am very happy with it. Looks better than the Shure too imo.
Yup. USB-C cable from the unit to the receiver.
Get a soldering station with adjustable temperature. Don't just get a cheap pen soldering iron from the hardware store. Also, I recommend using flux paste or gel to help flow the solder where you want it to. And shrink tube with a heat gun is also a good touch to insulate and protect your connections!
). My case is less shockabsorbing than yours i guess, but i always make sure to transport my own gear so there not really any risk.
Cool board. Yeah that's a similar thing to what I have. Similar story a little too I guess. My board is from custom pedalboards uk and was originally for a GigRig G2. It had a shelf and room for an expression pedal. Wanting an alternative to the Temple boards (which are great too) I saw that this board fit what I wanted to do perfectly.Wow, this is so nice and clean. Good job!!
Looks like you build version 3.0 of what i have (and what now feels like version 0.1 of your board
I had this "Rockcase by warwick" already for my Boss GT 1000 and reworked the inside of the case a lot to adapt to the FM9. I had plans to first build a concept case and then build it again but better, but this works and i prefer to play guitar
For anyone who is wondering, yes i have a polycarbonate piece a few millimeters above the big screen to protect it from fallings plugs etc, fitted with small velcro strips.
I believe most are using attaching them right to the board using an M3.5-.06 x ___mm screws through the board and rubber feet! This works pretty well as they function not only as a shock absorber but standoffs so the unit can breathe!How are people attaching the FM9 to wooden / laminate pedalboards?
Im looking for good methods that will make it easy to either use the FM9 off the pedalboard (ie placed on bedroom floor) or attached to full pedal board (when out at jams). The Bluguitar Amp1 can use magnetic attachments - has anyone tried this or a similar quick release type strategy?
