Simple MIDI on/off switcher
Heading home after two great weeks of guitar tech work for Europe across Spain and Italy. Cadiz, Marbella, Murcia, Valencia, St. Feliu, Genoa, Bologna, and Altidona – all done! Warm weather and good times.
Dual Loop Switcher built for my friend Michael Helgé @manicguitars — activates a delay pedal in the amp’s FX loop and an overdrive in the front end with a single press.
Simple channel/effect switcher with TRS jack and selectable LED state for compatibility with various amplifiers.
MIDI footswitch . Designed to send Program Change (PC) messages on MIDI channel 1.
Nothing selected = Program 0
Switch 1 = Program 1
Switch 2 = Program 2
This gives the user the availability to toggle between 3 programs with two switches.
Six channel input selector/mixer.
New pedalboard built for @officialjohnnorum designed to run in front of his vintage Hiwatt amps. @officialeuropetheband summer tour kicks off in Norway tomorrow.
Here’s my latest pedalboard build.
Three weeks of guitar tech work with @officialeuropetheband @officialjohnnorum in South America wrapped up! Thank you, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, Argentina, Colombia, and Ecuador. Time to head home and get back to the workshop—pedal building awaits!
Pedalboard work
Audio Indicator – Lights up when the signal exceeds -22 dBu. Designed for monitoring talkback signals.
MIDI-controlled studio setup. The board is a sliding shelf, integrated into the work desk provided by the customer.
Instrument selector with dual input buffers. Permanently active tuner output. MUTE switch and 15dB gain trim on Input B.
Parallel mixer. Transformer isolated send and return sections. -20dB send attenuation and +20dB return gain. Kill Dry switch.
Here’s two units that I built for myself to make my life in the workshop easier. Unit 1, Transformer balanced output interface for my Rohde & Schwarz signal generator. Unit 2, High current DC power supply with switchable ground configuration for Moku Lab instruments.
Here’s my latest pedalboard build
Rack build just finished. RJM Gizmo X wired for twelve loops. Gigrig mixer and Morningstar ML5 for guest pedals. Stereo insert for a second effect rack that’s in the making.
Output Interface/Splitter. Stereo input and dual stereo outputs. This unit allows the user to run a stereo amp setup in parallel with Strymon Iridium (or any other amp sim) all in stereo.
Rick-O-Sound Interface! TRS input with dual effect loops. Stereo outputs and parallel/mixed output. ISO transformers and 24V internal power supply for maximal headroom. Permanently active aux/tuner output. MUTE switch and mono/stereo input select.
Metropoulos Metro-Plex MK II channel switcher.
Bass Pedalboard
Relay switchers for vintage Fender Super Reverb amplifiers. TRS remote switching functionality.
This is a rehoused DOD 565 Stereo Chorus, a beautiful effect unit from the early 80s. I have also included my own buffer circuit for a buffered stereo bypass with an isolation transformer.
A pair of UTC LS-10X DI boxes just finished for a local recording studio.
More guitars! Taipei, Taiwan tonight and the final show of the Asian leg of The Time Capsule 40th Anniversary tour with John Norum and Europe.
Currently on tour doing guitar tech work for John Norum. Tokyo, Japan tonight with Europe. Fun times! Here’s some gear photos.
Simple in/out interface
Custom Switcher. Dual effect loops in series with remote on/off.
Some changes were made to Anders "Boba" Lindström`s compact pedalboard that now includes Wampler Germanium Tumnus, King Tone Soloist and Karlagatan Zonk.
Stereo Interface
Boss RC-600 pedalboard
If you`re still looking for Christmas presents, we have a great tip for you! At @tgt11 we currently have the Backlineverket 4 Cable Patchbay/Interface and Flatboards in stock.

Wall box with cat6 and usb-c that I made for a local recording studio.
Isolated Line Out Interface available for purchase @tgt11 This interface provides a transformer-isolated line signal from your amplifier`s speaker output. It is equipped with two speaker jacks - one to be connected to the amplifier`s speaker output, and the other to your speaker. Consider this interface as an extension to your speaker cable. Connect the line out to your effects, mixer, recording device, or speaker emulator. For a balanced connection, use a TRS cable, and for an unbalanced connection, use a TS cable. The level potentiometer allows you to adjust the line signal to your desired level. When fully turned clockwise, the signal is attenuated by -20dB, and when set at noon, it reaches approximately -26dB. Please note that this device is not a load box, so ensure that it is connected to a speaker or appropriate load. Remember, your amplifier must have a load in place.
I recently made some modifications to Anders "Boba" Lindström`s pedalboard. Kingtone Duellist, Octaland, Vibe-1968 and Rise was added along with Shin`s Clean Boost. This pedalboard has a remarkable collection of top-quality effects.
Remote switchable A/B input selector.
Acoustic/Electric guitar selector. Dual buffer, MUTE and permanently active aux/tuner output. #guitar #guitargear #guitarpedals #pedalboard
MIDI controlled studio pedalboard. #pedalboard #guitar
Voltage Monitoring Unit. 1-Phase relay for detection of incorrect mains voltage. This unit allows to stop incorrect power supply voltage when different from the desired one.
New pedalboard for John Norum. Remote on/off switches for controlling Echo and Chorus through the effects loop. I also built a custom power supply and new channel switcher.
