That's it. After a few months of having a ''blank slate'' pedalboard, I came back to a full board.

Honestly, it's much better to have all of your options ready in front of you and just change 1 or 2 pedals at a time in your chain if you want to change things up... instead of picking every single pedal you want every time you want to play.

I ended playing with the same 3 pedals every time because I was lazy to basically ''rebuild my board'' each time I wanted to record an ambient sketch.

That being said, I like the sound I got with my smaller pedalboard. It was more pure. Less processed than with 2 reverbs and 3 delays and compression and vibrato...

I might go for that ''purest'' sound more often, but for today, let's just enjoy a super processed, bitcrushed, chorused, wet swell improv that makes you feel like you are in space.

Thanks for watching :-)

If you have questions, I'll be there in the comment section. Cheers!
