I've been tempted to buy a Gig Rid Quartermaster switcher for a few pedals if not my whole board, and if I only got one for gain/compressor and delay/reverb, I'd have this space between the switchers where the Z-Vex would fit perfectly.
Yup, that's how I've got most of my board setups arranged (w/ loop switching on the first row) and they work really well filling out the rest of the row. I can fit a couple of the EQD or Walrus tall pedals (or one of the big ones) in the second row above a Zvex w/o stressing about their cables hanging over the edge of the board.
I usually build my own boards, but for my bass board, I'm tempted to get a Pedaltrain just for simplicity's sake, and power supply mounting. I've been thinking about a switcher for the bass rig if nothing else, as I'm planning my bass board to be my main jamming board for guitar as well, since my regular guitar board is huge. Or it will be, when I finish it again :fp: It's too bad that Z-Vex doesn't make a combo SHO/treble booster. I'd use the shit out of that.

That would be really easy to put together DIY, though! :whistle:

I use a loop switcher. Got it from Loop Switcher on ebay. Less than $125, basic on/off

I really like the stuff from Gig Rig. Those switches are amazing. BUT, if I don't go that route, I'll just build one myself :)
