Trick for the future: When you remove the screws from a Wah, use the screws from the back of a computer to put the plate back on. They almost always fit perfectly (same threading usually) and they are short enough to accommodate the thickness of the velcro. They are what I use on both my wah pedals. Some companies might differ, the screws used to mount hard drives have slightly tighter thread, but are the same height, though they may have flatter head. They may work where the others don't. Cool board, looking forward to what come next! Cheers from Canada!

I think the Quad has a pretty good pitch shifter in it, so he’s probably just using that. And unlike a band like twelve foot ninja, I feel the tunings he would be going between would be pretty standard, so no need for the shurikan

Sure I can make a little video on it - basically I realised that 99% of the songs I can managed by shifting the whole guitars tuning, and just relearning some of the positions to fit with that. The shuriken was great for the banjo sounds and unique stuff we need throughout the set. At the minute we are working on finding replacement tones for those. But yeah, basically I can use QC and just pitch shift the guitar. The tracking is great and it doesn’t seem to mess with the tone that much at all.

Works well, and nothing is modded if you ever want to resell.

The new rig being able to handle all those specific parameters for Frog Leap is awesome! Didn't think it was possible without the helix. However, the QC (and other gear) is still just too damn expensive. At roughly $2300 (used), I'd rather just stick with the Helix floorboard (or LT) and the Shuriken. One guitar. One floorboard. DONE. Simplicity goes a long way.

Not sure why Mission don't provide more options for users wanting to mount their pedals to pedalboards. Only a couple of their range have flat bottom risers with holes in for the rubber feet that then allow Velcro mounting. I ended up making my own cardboard/velcro riser and hooking the top rubber feet over one of the bars of my Pedaltrain to keep it in place. Not pretty, but it kind of works.
