There comes a certain point where it’s just too much to ask of a rubber foot. You wouldn’t want your board wobbling in place. That’s where the Elevation series comes into play. Plenty of room underneath for an ML10X, power and patch bay.

We actually just updated these with our new V3 Series rollout late last year. Truth is, we considered doing a magnet and honestly, we stuck with the 4 screw method in this version. It’s more versatile for different setups. Most people do hinge toward the back like you, but some do need to hinge to the front and this allows that. Also, with the feedback we got from this first version, almost everyone just left out the 2 screws for their hinging orientation and found it was more convenient. Gravity keeps it from hinging whenever it’s not in the case and the magnets aren’t even necessary.

@@Creationmusiccompany makes sense! I really dig your design. I’d be upgrading from another company’s board. A quad 4.2. Your boards seem to fit the bill nicely. Looking to go two tiered.

Drill through and bolt it.

On the Dual Lock. Phoenix are the hardest because they have a heavy transformer and a rough texture powder coat. I’ve found on those that 2 strips of 1 inch Dual Lock, the entire length of the power supply is required. Not just 2-3 2 inch segments. You basically have to cover the entire bottom of the Phoenix. If you wanted to switch to a mechanical mount that would work to. However, this video was of a wooden deck. Yours is thinner aluminum, of course. So, to do this on an Elevation, you would need to drill through the deck. Just want to make sure you realize the difference. I would also recommend after drilling through, using a countersink bit so you can recess the screw flat to the top side of the deck but it’s up to you. I still have a ton of these bicycle links left. If you want to email me, I can make up a kit and send an invoice for one with screws that would match your elevation. [email protected]

It would be different with the voltage over there as it’s all 120v here. However, if I understand you correctly, then yes. I’ve wired little 3-5 outlet power strips to this sort of setup many times. Just make sure the switches and connectors you use can handle the amp load needed for the power strip as it’s usually a heavier gauge wire drawing more current. To be clear, I am not a licensed electrician. Any answer I give is purely for discussion and only speculation.

No sir. This is from a parts store we no longer operate.

Awesome! So glad you like them!

I have the same question. Looks like it could bend or sag over time.

No. This is an old video. We no longer have a dedicated DIY parts site.

The way I understand it is, C14 is Male. C13 is Female.

@@Creationmusiccompany I think you’re absolutely right! Thanks for replying and once again, amazing video!

You can usually find longer ones at a local hardware store. Been years since we did them this way. We pretty much just use 3M dual lock now for everything. But, that's not an option on unfinished wood.

@@Creationmusiccompany all good i just had some spare screws lying around. odd that two of mine fit and two did not tho. thanks for the reply !

If you like this video, stay tuned. We’re working on a new project of tutorials similar to this but better quality recording and audio. 22AWG should be fine for the midi connector pin openings. Just be sure to twist it tight. A good trick is to pre-tin the wires and then clip to a sharp point. This helps make sure you don’t have one strand left out of the joint shorting to another joint.

@@Creationmusiccompany Perfect. Thank you so much! Yeah, I'm not a whiz at soldering, but it's all about preparation, patience and practice. I want to make my own cable because I haven't found anyone that sells it except a company in Germany and with the shipping, VAT and Euro exchange rate it would cost about $48 for a cable I could probably make with Neutrik / Rean brand connectors and some Mogami wire for about $10.

@@anthonyrexhouse5858 I think @goodwoodaudio sells one

I'm honestly not sure on this. I typically don't use power supplies that aren't 3 prong.

I've found the answer. I condemned the ground pole and not use it. So far I am using my pedal board perfectly.

In that situation, I would rehoming wiring a dual plug cable to the switch. A better solution honestly is to use a power supply with a courtesy outlet, like the Monod or PP2+ and just link them with a short ac cord. OR, a lot of the newer power supplies like the Strymon ones, like with a 24v connector. One power supply can link up to 9 total in their ecosystem. I'm a big fan of this.

Coming very soon! Working on a whole new soldering video series.

Hey Dale, we no longer operate a DIY parts store. We chose a few years ago to just focus on our own products and we no longer stock this part. It's made by Marinco. You should be able to find it on Amazon for about $10-15.

@@Creationmusiccompany that's great. Thank you for that and I love the website.

We no longer sell these items.

It's impossible to do TRS with solder less like this.

Yes. We've had some people do that with these. There is enough space between the connectors to fit the cable routing between the connectors. Works great.

@@Creationmusiccompany That's great to hear! Would love to make it more of a one stop shop to get a new board, power supplies, and cable needs. Hope to place an order here soon as the budget allows!

True, but when making a cable, the most important thing is passing the signal. Really, as long as the cable is soldered to the same pins on both ends, it really is all that matters.

@@Creationmusiccompany - Absolutely but it seems you can't rely on the numbering that appears on the connector. Thought it might be a good idea to check the embossed numbers on one side as they may not be the same as the other end.

Yea. It would just be 2 wires instead of 3, both of the same color.

@@johncalebsnyder so you use the neutral side or the hot on the interupter or was the hot on the switch only for the led

Royyy we stopped selling them when they no longer became compatible with our boards. Our boards are flat aluminum decks now. Stronger, lighter. But there is nothing to screw into. We recommend 3M Dual lock to mount power supplies. It’s incredibly strong, makes no holes, and is a universal fit.

@@Creationmusiccompany We bought a board at the Dallas show which is wood. Would you recommend going with 3M lock or using the bicycle chain links with the Walrus? If the bicycle chain links, what size screws to use for attaching it to the wood? Thank you!

@@HelenaHarris this video was before I really discovered Dual Lock. Our boards for the last 4-5 years have been aluminum when mounting the power supply below. For those, Dual Lock is amazing. I prefer Dual Lock because then if you make a change, you’re not left with holes on the deck. For the new custom shop boards, we sanded and finished the underside so that dual lock “should” work. If you want to use the mounts though, bicycle link and a 3/8” depth wood screw work great. You can use a 1/2” screw, but may need an extra washer to keep from going through the deck. As for the power supply, the stock screw should work, but if you need a longer one from the hardware store, they’re usually 8-32 thread count.

@@Creationmusiccompany can the dual lock adhesive really hold up to the weight of the Walrus Audio Phoenix, on your current boards? That’s a lot of weight for the adhesive to hold.

Neither are Vox inspired to be honest. The EF86 gets a bit more of that just because of the tube choice for the pre-amp, but still played through 6L6 power tubes. The amp itself is completely original though.

You are very welcome! Glad they're working so well for you.

Hey Jair Osorio! Yes, that’s correct. We left this up as a tutorial guide, but we no longer sell this product.

@@Creationmusiccompany Thanks this video always help me i hope it never dissapears. Have a great weekend.

Yep. Filmed on a small charter boat in the Caribbean during a storm. We went out looking for treasure but with didn’t find any. Argh!

the pedals do sound nice, but it's the amp the whole time. Some clips use pedals to show how the amp takes it, as well as on the eclipse, the pedals were used to give a stereo signal. At 0:35 though it's all the amp with just a tiny bit of reverb

also, 2:05 has basically no pedals

Still around and still making amps. They're on our website if you're interested.

DUANE Rogers we were in the Solderless game from day 1 (almost 7 years ago) carrying Lava Cable on our website. Eventually we dropped it because the kits we saw seemed finicky and difficult to make. Our own kit is MUCH more simple to make. We’ve been carrying it a bit over a year now and are loving it. So far, they are the best Solderless we’ve ever experienced and have an extremely low capacitance cable. 24 pf per ft. All that to say, we do still say that setups and soldered cable are the most reliable, but for people who love the convenience of Solderless, these are the best.

@@Creationmusiccompany I did not know that you carried Lava Cable on your website (feeling a little embarrassed). Probably because I only looked at your custom patch cables. I learned something new today. I do agree with you on the "finicky-ness" of solderless patch cables in general. I love what you guys are doing with your business and all the videos you put out to help educate and inform us. AAA+++

All good. Yea. I’ve actually been using these on my personal board for over a year and have not been able to get one to fail. If it weren’t for TSA I would try and do a setup with one.
