Equipboard Page Ideas

Now :)

The "sort" icon next to the list name is now used to reorder lists, and the link to reorder the gear under a list has been moved into the ... menu.

this is great

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

I just joined today, but I would like to be able to remove the default "My Gear" category from my page, since I have created my own categories for my stuff. Looks like I can delete the categories I created myself, but not the default ones.

GEAR:
  • Gibson Les Paul Studio
  • Orange OR15H 15W Tube Guitar Amp Head
  • Blank slot

That's true, you can't outright delete it, but you can rename it so it appears as you'd like by hitting the edit icon next to the list name. Sorry if that isn't clear enough!

GEAR:
  • EarthQuaker Devices Westwood

quote user Kristopher Sundberg > The order of your pedals make a huge difference. Also, with looper, switcher, blender, mixer, and order pedals becoming more of a thing, a very usable feature would be the ability to visualize singal chains. It could really spark conversation and inspire people to get the most out of their pedals.

Its a very guitar centric viewpoint but most of us are guitarists, many of us primarily or solely guitarists.... signal chain, sure, but lets not get into gain staging or I'll have to school yall

As the token non-guitarist here, this statement feels about right. If the EB folks have data that shows otherwise, I'd be surprised.

It is a guitar centric viewpoint...but there's even a guitar in the EB logo so I don't really see a problem.

I only play guitar anymore when I want a guitar sound and then that guitar sound is usually generated very simply (even during my MIDI rig period or the multi amp rigs my hands, choice of guitar andthe tube amplifiers do all my heavy lifting tonally, FX are just that, special FX, my sound is my sound) ... but given how most guitarists these days use their amps like power amps and their tone is their pedalboard? welp, this makes sense. And my live synth rig has stomp boxes in it, not just rack units. And I'm not alone in this approach.

if there were a problem I wouldn't have moved this here for you :-) anyone who knows me could tell ya if it were a problem I woulda said "what a stupid idea"... but its not stupid AT ALL, its great

Many of my closest friends are guitarists, Jim. There is no shame.

One could bombard me all day long with outrageous statements re: pros & cons of true vs buffered bypass, and my blood pressure wouldn't budge one mm... nor would I even have an opinion. Who wants to live like this, Jim?... in this amoral gray blah of guitar agnosticism? Nobody, that's who.

ever since I got lazy about keys like 30 years ago I've been feeling the guitar shame off and on, this is a curse for guitarists who read music but aren't John Williams or like Larry Carlton... its irrational but my old man loves to tweak me about my musicianship or lack thereof

I'm sure the PHDs at work would have a field day with my constant sense of musical inadequacy versus my enormous gear horde. Horde is starting to be the word too... I gotta liquidate some things just to make room. I don't even know where to put the juno next week.

Just because I haven't played guitar since age 19, doesn't mean I'm wiz on these keyboards, lol... There's a Thom Yorke quote out there somewhere where he says something to the effect of japanese synths being better-suited to duffers like himself, and American (east coast) synths are for the Rick Wakemans... this is totally why I'm an 80s Roland guy.

You already know the answer: swap out the big stuff for their rack equivalents... vintage rack gear prices are getting crazy.

This pedalboard planner/layout/flow chart feature should be true to life: "small gig board", "large venue pedal board", "acoustic cafe pedal board", "box in closet", "box in garage", "box in storage space", "box in living room that we use as an ottoman"...

Alright everyone, we just launched a redesigned homepage IF you're logged in.

So the biggest things we tried to do was 1) make it viewable on all screen sizes and 2) show more activity by expanding actions by default so they are easier to see.

Please take a look and let us know what you think and what revisions would help you browse or reply or moderate the site.

Thanks!
