Default Need pedal board option: 2 Boss and a Pure XLR

I'm currently using the following at pretty much every show:

K&K Pure XLR, into
Boss GE7, into
Boss TU2 tuner.

The GE7 is just for problem solving bad rooms, and doesn't get used all that often. Extremely valuable when needed, though!

To date, I'm still keeping each pedal separate and setting up one at a time. Getting to be old hat.

I'd like a simple solution like this: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/ampli...-30-pedalboard
but the K&K Pure XLR is odd shaped, and won't fit with out modding the plastic molding. Plus I'm not sure it'll even fit as it's bigger then boss standard pedals, not counting the knobs, which stick out about another inch.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
David

Try a Pedaltrain Nano (and while you're at it, get one of their Volto power supplies, too). I use a Mini (20" wide as opposed to the 15" wide Nano) and have a Pitchblack+ strobe tuner/AB switch at one end, a Baggs Venue at the other, with two TC Electronic mini pedals (HOF reverb and Corona Chorus) between them. It's dirt simple to set up, no need to worry about power because the Volto will power my board for about 7 hours or so (but only takes an hour to charge -- gotta love Lithium batteries), just plug in, turn on and play.

Another pedaltrain vote, really happy with mine:

The included carry bags are better quality than you'd expect too.

I've got a PT-Mini and a much larger PT2. In your' case I'd get the PT-Mini and probably use a 1-spot power supply. That's what I use with my mini. I also have a Voodoo Lab power supply for my larger board but that's more than you need.
