http://lavacable.com/index.php?id=31Not my thing but nice to see someone doing something difference, maybe Excane could find a way to build a megatron capable of making all of his pedals stompable on stage?

I think this is exactly what I need. I tend to build pedalboards in blocks in my head, so this would be perfect. I could snap off whatever pieces I need and take them with me or just leave them all chained together like a mad scientist's puzzle. Hmmm...I will have to think about this.

Yea it's pretty cool for that, I saw one pic that just had 2 of the pedals pieces just sort of orbiting around the pedal board not attached for easier access in their stage situation, an dthat was sort of weird, but it looks like you are just about stuck with needing a piece for every pedal.

That's kinda what it looks like. But there are some that you could fit two on...maybe I'll just go get some wood and use my neighbor's scroll saw.

Stop being so relentlessly positive. That thing is ass. In the bad sense of the word.
1) It's black plastic, which looks and breathes "crap"
2) It looks like a jigsaw puzzle.
3) For what it is I think it's way overpriced.
Modular stuff is cool. A modular pedalboard would be cool (although dangerous... where to stop when space is no limit...). This thing just seems like it was designed by a hardware store chain rather than a pedal dude.

I think its cool in theory, but it needs more space on the bottom to hide your power supply and run your cables from underneath.

No case.
Look fragile.
Not for me.

I've seen this system before and I don't like it.
This is a perfect example of something that sounds great in theory, and just sucks in execution.
I would never.....and I mean NEVER have a reason to use it the way the system intends for you to use it.
It's the biggest fucking pain in the ass just to get a traditional board set up with cables, power, layout, etc... now I'm going to take it apart and rearrange it? Sorry, no way.

yeah i thought about it. there's no place to put cables. they just kinda hang. also, it doesn't seem very portable. Wtf holds them together? Idk, i feel like it's a really cool concept, and someday, someone might nail it. just not this time.
