Ultimate Pedalboard ???

I've become really uninterested in pedals and pedalboards since I set up my latest one. It's so functional with the MS-3, patchbay, etc that I feel like I am using it nowhere near its capacity, so I have lost interest in buying other stuff. I have my three drive pedals that I need plus the MS-3 for the loop stuff and now I realise that I actually use effects very minimally, so I have everything that I will ever need. Time to sell some of my old pedals off
 
As far as I'm concerned this is my ultimate pedalboard. I don't need anything else.

(which I absolutely ADORE!---)

The box next to the tuner is a line selector.

If I leave the tuner inline it seems to suck out some high end.

I use the OCD as a med type distortion/ overdrive. The OCD has been on my board since the first version came out, on it's first release day. Me and a couple of guitar playing bros did a two hour road trip the first morning Rainbow Music in Tucson, Az had them for sale. Will probabaly never get rid that one!

All the boosting I do is with either the grey Fulltone Fat Boost or the Boss Super Overdrive.

I'm with @Dave Sloven in using a RockBoard Tres.
We have different PatchBays, but the MOD1 I have is perfect for my 5CM stereo setup.
From L>R: Guitar IN (Monster)>Send to Amp IN>Amp FX Send to board>Board L/R sends to Amp FX Returns.
Loads of space under the board for PSUs (but I am still Daisy Chaining :unsure:).
No Nuts and Bolts.
All fits in the supplied gig bag.

I sort of got the OD-20 on a whim and am still undecided about it.
It was in mint condition and the price was very good.
I sold my BD-2 after comparing it to the OD-20 version.
The MT-2 sim isn't as good as the real thing into the FX Return, so that stayed.
It is also useful as a channel footswitch (AMP CTRL), and generally saves masses of space on my board.
The main let-downs are the Yellow ODs, with the exception of Boost.
Heavy Octave is a gimmick and never used.
The Turbo sweep of the Drive knob is definitely extra gain over an original pedal.
The interplay between Bottom and Tone is sometimes a bit confusing (overlapping?).
Attack shape I don't really understand but is sort of a gain delay/swell?

At the moment I use the Blues Driver, OD-1, Guv'nor, and Boost for the 4 Memory presets.
The Boost preset is really my amps own OD channel, selected by the AMP CTRL switching, with a tiny bit of clean Boost.
All the others are through the clean channel of my VS65R.
The 5th 'Manual Mode' option changes around a lot, but is set to Fuzz Face today.
