Quad Cortex and External Pedals - Pedalboard Suggestions

Hi Guys, I wanted to get some opinions on a pedalboard for my Quad Cortex and a few external pedals. I previously owned the Boss Gt-100 and a few other multi effects pedals and so didn’t have to worry about a pedalboard. However, I’ve now moved to a significantly bigger setup and since I don’t have any experience in this thought I’d ask around for suggestions :slight_smile:

My current setup and a few pedals that are on the way:

  1. Quad Cortex
  2. Strymon Bigsky
  3. Strymon Timeline
  4. Strymon Mobius
  5. Electroharmonic POG 2
  6. T.C Electronics Polytune
  7. Mission Engineering SP-1

Two pedalboards that I’ve come across are the “DAddario XPND 2 Pedalboard” and the “Pedaltrain XD-24 Pedalboard” but I’m not entirely sure if they would be able to hold all these pedals.

Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions are highly appreciated :slight_smile:

Thanks in advance

Do you know about the Pedal playground. You can add your effects and configure things to mock up a board: https://pedalplayground.com/

Here is my setup with external pedals and the QC. I’m on a pedaltrain NOVO 18 and it does the trick for me. A little tight between the QC and upper row which makes a little more work when capturing but pretty great live rig.

Obviously different and less pedals than you’re intending but will give you a good visual. Pedal playground builder is a great start but it tends to “run small” meaning it makes it seem like there’s more room. Give your self an extra inch of length and width than what PPg shows.

No mention yet of Temple Audio / Templeboards in this thread. Look at the Duo 34 (which is what I use), Trio 28, and Trio 43.

That’s a crazy setup!

I’m just worried about adding 2 TRS cables to the Mission Engineering SP-1. Since they aren’t L shaped they might hinder in terms of having a tight setup (which btw I would prefer having :slight_smile: )
