[@adamstrachn]

Those Temple Audio boards are extremely nice looking. Killer build and video with Beau. Nice surprise guest.

[@brentstewart4360]

Looks great - the Quad Cortex has just about everything you'd ever need

[@HeyItsAsmus]

I wish you would have shown the bottom of the board, and what power you used on the side and underneath!

[@michaelpal7641]

Yup-Wishing the exact same thing here.

[@jasonnaranjo4622]

pure dreams, it's sad that it's only for the USA, good luck to everyone, the rig is incredible just like all the work on your channel!

[@jerber182]

OH SNAP! Beau with the guest star! What a give away!

[@illyadass]

That is literally my dream pedalboard! Beau Burchell was a nice addition also

[@Metaldad87]

What a nice compact gigging board. Cool to see/meet beau too, never seen him before now but I like him

[@aaronmcnair1829]

This is a great video for so many reasons. Good work.

[@howlrabbit5648]

This would be a sweet compact live rig! Good luck to everyone

[@templeboards]

Great setup, guys! 🔥

[@GDT1124]

DREAM RIG, beautiful work on it as well!

[@ColtonVanceMusic]

Beau!!!!!! Such an amazing musician and producer!!!

[@jerryhorton5708]

Man, I really wanted to hear those patches…sweet build!

[@amfk8079]

That experience would be insane. Seven years got me through highschool

[@KillaFXZ]

This would make things so much easier and sound so much better!🎉

[@Tognar]

This is all you need!

[@8KilgoreTrout4]

Yesss!!! Now this is a good morning!

[@8KilgoreTrout4]

I’m so gonna fn win this! 😅

[@stealingtomorrowband]

Sweet... I'd love to try 1 of those quads, but I'd be auper happy with a mesa combo, would look super nice with my PRS 408... They always say dream big but them dreams never happen The powerstage is pretty cool i didn't know that they had anything like that. I really would like.try this setup out .. Goodluck to whomevrr wins

[@Thesleepiestskies]

I’m here for the power supply clarification. I bought the pedal board and the SS6 Furman power strip, and it doesn’t fit under the board. It also shows you guys plugging into a power supply at the board, and the Furman is wired already. It would be really nice if we could get a better understanding of how this thing was powered. I feel like I ordered the wrong parts

[@temporessproductions]

If you find a solution I'd be interested to know

[@Thesleepiestskies]

@@temporessproductions so I ended up buying a different power strip altogether. I found one that was longer and skinnier and had vertical oriented plugs. It fits under the board but just barely. It’s not perfect, but it fits enough for me to be able to use it in a pedalboard flight case.

[@ItsCiarian]

I've had similar problems with my board pedal train Novo...big board cas I run a Morley wah and digitech whammy but I can't get the power under the board due to the face the quad cortex plug sticks out too far

[@yourmothertrebek]

I saw another video where someone built a pedalboard for Plini and he had a custom Plini Mod that attaches to the side of the board for power, midi, etc. Wouldn't surprise me if that's what they ended up using.

[@temporessproductions]

Thanks for all the responses, love this community. I have alot of things to consider now. One thing is I found a iec splitter on sweet water that had one IEC port and one regular wall port. So I can get the side power supply and split it to my pedal power and quad power with the factory cortex box.

[@steffkeirn5017]

Maybe the best compact fly rig ever!

[@emmetts8]

My exact rig, except for the Quad Cortex. I currently use the HX Stomp XL, but have been planning on getting a Quad Cortex soon.

[@JustJoshua73]

My husky said..... RAH! Great giveaway. Kieep it simple is my motto. Great pics for it as well. Thanks for the chance to win!

[@rondelolarte6037]

Great rig, on the go plug n play, commuting, pro guitarist

[@vita-girl4345]

I have nearly the same pedalboard. I was coached to go this route from a buddy of mine. One of these days it’ll be on Rate or Roast my rig;)

[@jimclark7917]

Killer pedalboard. Simple, yet effective

[@lbarj]

Very clean and solid pedalboard, when I do the wires always so much more of it and I make a mess.

[@martinhensley2377]

Thanks on the class guys, i rearanged my pedal board.

[@MartinHensley-kc2fk]

What gifts

[@brianstinnett5710]

Awesome!!

[@XaleManix]

My philosophy for the last few years has been to have as much as I can that affects the sound in the backline, preferably in a single rolling case, and all my switching is done by a cheap midi controller at the front of the stage. I can put the rack case somewhere safe and isolated, and if anything on stage is going to get damaged, it's a cheap and easily replaced midi footswitch.

[@midnighthour4299]

Great compact rig. Covers all bases.

[@michaelpal7641]

Yes-it covers all bases. With the exception of just how the underside looked and the so called "Plate System". Looks like a bunch of "sticky backing" to me.

[@KarenBasset]

What a great rig! I entered. This would be such a great live rig.

[@allex_with2ls]

Loveeee this 😍🤘

[@aaronlawson203]

Damb I've been trying to get my hands on one. That could crush

[@drummerjoey003]

I didn’t skip to the end, I watched the whole fun video.

[@Jaymze13]

I was hoping to see a FM3 used, but I know Sweetwater doesn't sell those. Very cool regardless. 👍

[@bmuggy]

Awesome board. One question. How did you mount the powerstrip underneath? I'm gonna do a similar rig but with a full size wah and a headrush gigboard. Thanks.

[@donseibert4847]

That is an awesome board.

[@thorhansen5462]

One of the mods for the Temple Audio boards is in fact a 100 watt stereo power amp.

[@Orschd]

So you tell me, you do this vid on KZbin, and the Giveaway is on Insta? Very clever. Masterminds at work!

[@donniejean]

I saw it on porn hub!

[@PeterCleff]

That is the perfect pedalboard 👌👌

[@studowling]

My OCD approves. I would rock that board.

[@MSNGR415]

I got the duo 17 for a Christmas gift and was planning on a quad cortex, now I feel it will be too small unless I leave the cortex off it and wire it for my boost, noise gate and other weirder pedals I own like the ZOIA and night sky reverb. Could always build a side car stand and attach it underneath the duo 17 to connect them as one or flip this for a 24.

[@tooday3774]

That’s awesome 😎

[@SOADGOD]

Question would using a headrush frfr 1x12 be better than buying the powerstage for an amp? Since with this setup you'd probably be just going to front of house from the context?

[@edocamera]

Very cool indeed

[@toddruizguitar]

Sooooo siiiick!

[@mullat215]

What are you using for power/ what is everything plugging into under the board that you just have the one power chord out?

[@ChilisInTheBowl]

What patch bay or module are you guys using to power the Powerstage through the pedalboard?

[@chrishexom7531]

Hey just noticed dragged under is playing louder than life on Saturday the 23rd ......any idea what time and stage so I can be on the lookout?

[@cornholy69]

Love it \m/ 🦅

[@lorinlennard9808]

I want to know how the power worked on this between the Furman power strip and temple audio iec module 🤔

[@drandalldrums]

That's Beau fucking Burchell! Saosin is absolutely incredible

[@satch72]

Pretty badass

[@Antiflagcanuck]

Great setup, wish i could see the underside. Also, they plugged into the wrong jack on the Shure, it should be the other one to connect to the expression pedal, right now its plugged into the input you would use to just make it a tuner

[@quan9630]

what was the power supply they were using since they pluged in the side they defently using one and didnt show that

[@jameslanclos568]

6:05 - I have the Quad Cortex and I was under the impression that I had to pair it with the Mission Eng. QC model expression pedal. Is this true or can any EXP pedal be used ??? Also, I've heard complaints that the 'supplied' power supply for the QC isn't any good. Is there a power supply you can recommend?

[@barry3045]

had no idea how a quad cortex worked until i saw this , thanks .

[@michaelpal7641]

Can you help me? What size Temple Board will be sufficient for a Quad Cortex and a single Expression pedal with CIOKS power supply and a CRUX power supply underneath?

[@justaguy2365]

This is a cool board. Makes me wish I was on Instagram... Kinda lol. Hope whoever gets it puts it to good use!!!

[@cesar470]

Great video and pedalboard!!, but I would love to see how the connection were on the bottom, because the furman SS 6B doesn’t look like that…

[@andrew-StellaR-]

what power supply did you use and how did you connect the Quad Cortex and Seymour Duncan Powerstage 170 to power?

[@nicolastocco4336]

Hi, great video and I'm getting inspiration to build my own pedal board, I wanted to ask, what type of power supply did you mount?

[@jordangoetz9431]

Awesome video

[@tobymac21]

Could you guys move the wireless up top? I'm never gonna need to stomp it. Thanks.

[@amstfe97]

Great solution, what you use to stick the pedals to the pedalboard ?

[@ellosean1]

Random question but how did you mount the pedals on there? Are those sticky tabs?

[@Terry3Gs]

Great giveaway, but again USA only. Good luck to all whom enter !! 👍

[@brathzo]

I found out that the power stage adds a nasty high end frecuency that changes your general tone. I'm still searching for something like it that doesn't color the sound as much as that block

[@charlielopez.gtr1]

I'm here just wandering how did they made the IEC for the PS200 cable go through one of those wholes, because I have the same board and haven't been able to do it :P

[@RiffsAndBeards]

Dremel

[@Guitarmann-el6iz]

What is powering this board what power supply please tell us.

[@BluessNRock]

4th? Sounds amazing 😮

[@billwarner213]

I was really hoping to see how you wired it underneath, with the power strip! My power strip is on top and I haven't been able to figure out a better solution.

[@marcojohnston334]

I too have the same board and same strip was hoping i could do the same

[@bmuggy]

Same here. The powerstrip is a monster. I just don't want to get the pedalboard and it not work.

[@josuastangl7140]

8:07 Wouldn't switching patches with your left foot, meaning left foot forward, be considered regular instead of goofy? I ride regular, same goes for boxing or football, play a right handed guitar and naturally gravitated to controlling my pedalboard with my left foot

[@adrianscarlett]

I was hoping you had included a recommendation for a compact cabinet for small gigs...

[@sqlb3rn]

There is no standard pot sweep with expression pedals, I bought a random one and 85% of the sweep was in the first 15% of pedal movement. RJM makes different model expression pedals specifically for different manufacturers taking this in mind.

[@gwiongriffiths6540]

What IEC cable did you use for it to fit through the hole of the board to go into the Power Stage?

[@RiffsAndBeards]

Dremel the hole to make it fit haha

[@gwiongriffiths6540]

@@RiffsAndBeards Good to know! I have a similar rig and the Power Stage cable issue is a pain. Thanks dude!

[@howardjones543]

I watch youtube on TV - none of the yt TV apps show the description. just something to consider maybe with details only in the description?

[@RobertoSunga]

Ah you guys didn't show how you set up the power strip haha I was waiting for that

[@miojolee]

Why are you using the Seymour Duncan pedal with the Quad?

[@andrewzammit2431]

which furman model is that for QC ?

[@13DALEMEG]

Not my type of thing but very interesting how much space you save

[@LuizFeReis]

Cool board

[@markl4781]

Furman makes a small ac power conditioner that fits under the board

[@miketregle]

Did Geoff Allen at Sweetwater spec this out because you built the exact live rig he helped me put together. I flipped the GLXD and the Powerstage (and used a smaller board) but otherwise identical.

[@RiffsAndBeards]

I dont know who that is haha

[@miketregle]

@@RiffsAndBeards well the two of you have similar tastes because he recommended everything you used to me.

[@milton522]

Do you need a poweramp? Can't it work just the same going direct to FOH?

[@frankielangford]

You only need a poweramp if you want to run a cab on stage, if you just want to go direct to FOH and use in ears then you don't need it :)

[@user-ll2uy6gv4q]

Wow. That would be a dream for me to win.

[@TheChrispablo]

Is Fluff still in Dragged Under?

[@pvsnoir]

The day neural DSP let people tun the tuner on just by pressing and not holding the tuner switch I’ll get rid of my mini midi footswitch. But for instance I HATE the quad cortex tuning system that would be my only complain.

[@larbear666]

This is basically my exact rig but with an fm3

[@JoshuaLTRyan]

that's a sweet board. I hope I win 😁, but to whomever wins, congrats!

[@joshgascon7087]

Can you show how you mounted the power strip?

[@dtravis01]

I second this request. I would like to see how all of the power was run.

[@wheresallthezombies]

Damn, Beau some how looks his age but also 20 years younger. I would’ve said “7 years” but the number wasn’t big enough.

[@AlexRafn]

Sad this isnt for EU as well, is there something legal humbojumbo behind it?

[@RiffsAndBeards]

The board is not world power it’s 110v and cost to ship.

[@KimmyKim0423]

Awesome video and Great rig Sir, It is my dream rig. Hope i can win that give away. Greetings from Philippines

[@raymondforbes4295]

Why use the Power Stage instead of just going FOH and/or FRFR?

[@cesar470]

In case you need to use a cab with a mic

[@haymjack]

I still don’t understand how are you powering these devices?

[@nowgearthis]

New nickname = Goofy Foot!

[@bored9260]

Be just like tweaking a rose floyd but less finicky… 🤔 speaking of I must re-adjust that paper clip this year.

[@bored9260]

I can hold perfect tune for about a year as long as the temperature in my house stays on room temperature.

[@bored9260]

… 3/4 step down but close enough 🤷‍♂️

[@DavidForshee]

I need this set up lol

[@johnenglish8261]

Great video. I hope someone puts it to good use. By the way,if LEGO made a pedal kit, I would send it to you just to drive you insane.😆 Keep up the good work. 👍👍✌️

I’m making a custom amplifier to auction off with Legos for autism month 🤘🏽
