Part 2 - Plugs, Parts & Tools (Building A Pedalboard Series)

[@BallananChristmasLightShow]

Lots of great info in this video! Can't wait to see your next video for the midi cables. Need to make some of my own. Your board is INSANE!

[@thetoneshepherd]

Ahhh thanks brother! Just FYI, the next video doesn’t show how to wire MIDI cables because at the time of filing I had finished wiring them! Haha. BUT, I had already made a video a while back and my method hasn’t changed. So here’s that video from another channel kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZqcdK1ohKt8j9U

Loving this series man! Tons of great information. I will I had a resource like this when I was first building boards 😂

[@thetoneshepherd]

Oh man, so glad it’s helpful! And sorry it’s a bit too late 😂😂

Wow this is a great channel. I have a smaller templeaudio board and have used pedal playground. Very very useful tool. I wish I could afford to get all these tools.

[@thetoneshepherd]

Yeah I love that website! Huge thanks to whoever built that 🙏🏼 As far as the tools, I started with a soldering iron and slowly added stuff each year from there. I’ve been tinkering with pedalboards for almost 20 years so it adds up over time. Be patient and add a little when you can 🫶🏻

Thanks for this video!

[@thetoneshepherd]

No problem my friend. Happy to help!

First of all, thank you very much for your series of videos on pedalboards! I have a question: For the PBC6, why do you use the SP400 instead of the SPS400? Thank you so much!

[@thetoneshepherd]

Just because it saves space! If you see a photo of my pedalboard, I use ever square inch I can get. But if you don't need the space, straight plugs are much easier!

Wonderful

Thank you

How do you combine the power jacks from both sides?

[@thetoneshepherd]

Hey Jesse, I simply connect all like wires together. So I cut and strip multiple cables and connect green to green, black to black, and white to white on all wires. Then just make sure to solder and heat shrink them so they don't come in contact with each other. But usually I'll make all those connections on the back of one of my powercon connectors.
