Pedal Chains

Exact CURRENT active pedal topology. Owned pedals that are not in this path remain listed under inventory, not here.

Canonical structured source: data/routing.yaml (named_paths). Use uv run rig path show … / uv run rig current path … for inspection and supported mutations.

Purpose of RC-1 ahead of wah / JOYO: a captured phrase can subsequently be manipulated by the downstream pedals.

AUX SEND front end (CURRENT)

Alesis AUX SEND
-> BOSS RC-1
-> Cry Baby
-> JOYO A/B/Bypass
  A = DIRTY (see: rig path show dirty)
  B = SPACE (see: rig path show space)

JOYO DIRTY — Send A (CURRENT)

JOYO SEND A
-> BOSS OD-1
-> BOSS BD-2
-> BOSS JB-2
-> BOSS MT-2w
-> BOSS DS-1
-> JOYO RETURN A

Intent: gain, drive, dirt, classic stompbox abuse.

Note: TR-2 is not in this branch. It lives in the SPACE / SY-1 SEND loop. Do not infer that TR-2 left the rig.

JOYO SPACE — Send B (CURRENT)

JOYO SEND B
-> SY-1
  SY-1 SEND loop
    -> PH-3
    -> TR-2
    -> SY-1 RETURN
  -> LS-2 [A+B MIX ↔ BYPASS]
    LS-2 Loop A
      -> SL-2
      -> DD-8
    LS-2 Loop B
      -> TE-2
      -> RE-2
    -> JOYO RETURN B

LS-2 mode in use: A+B MIX ↔ BYPASS.

Intent: synth voice (SY-1), phase + tremolo in the SY-1 loop, then parallel texture loops via LS-2.

Post-JOYO stereo spread (CURRENT)

JOYO OUT
-> BOSS CH-1 stereo out

Path is mono through JOYO; CH-1 is the stereo stage.

Owned but not in CURRENT active chain

These remain inventory unless reintroduced and documented:

Device Notes
Flamma Mod OWNED; not in CURRENT SPACE topology
PH-2 OWNED; not in CURRENT SPACE topology
TR-2 OWNED and CURRENT, but in SY-1 SEND after PH-3 — not in DIRTY

Known pedal issues

Device Symptom Status
Space Echo / RE-2 area Noise noted Needs gain/noise isolation pass
Big Muff Failed/no audio Remove or bench-test
Radial ProRMP on AUX SEND Signal too low; sends needed to be maxed Do not place here unless gain staging is solved
