For effects Patrick uses TC Electronics A G system, a LNA distortion which is a proto of the signature model to be released before the end of the year.
Here are some photos.
From right to left the 2nd proto, the 3rd in the center and the last one to the left with an 8-band equaliser to use all the frequencies.
In fact this equaliser will not appear on the final version of the pedal. The frequencies will be the same with no dramatic changes, only slight adjustments 2/3Khz and +2db up to 13Khz for brightness.
You can get yours at : www.lnafx.com | See demo video
Patrick also uses other pedals in the studio. Besides the WAH WAH CFH which is part of the set-up for the stage, Jekyll and Hyde then son of Hyde were used for a long time on stage.
