Festiverbant 2011 rig

Here is a rundown of the rig I used at the Festiverbant festival in August 2011. From left to right:

4U Gator rack case containing:
- Furman PL-Plus CE Power Conditioner
- Line 6 Relay G90 Wireless
- TC Electronics G-Major 2
- RJM Mini Amp Gizmo tucked underneath the G-Major 2
Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier (2010) and Rectifier 4×12 cab
ESP Eclipse 1
Finally, behind the floor monitors, my 2011 Pedalboard (TrailerTrash)

Ignore the Krank cabs – those were dummy cabs to fill the stage and hide stuff.

Other points worth mentioning:

A PedalSnake is used to connect the pedalboard to the rack
In this rig configuration none of the pedals are actually used (such as the Blackstar HT-Dual, just visible in the photo), only the Musicom EFX III to control the rack and Dual Rectifier channel changing. In other words, the pedalboard was used purely for MIDI switching
This was the first time I used this rig live, and I had a panicky couple of days wiring up the Rack and programming the Musicom EFX ready for the performance. Memo to self: don’t do this type of thing a day or two before a major gig. Too stressful! In my defence, we did have a quick run through of the set with the rig at a Phazy Cave rehearsal the day before.
This was also the first time I used wireless live. The Relay G90 was great.
The rig performed perfectly and I was very happy with being able to change G-Major patches and switch amp channels, all with a single switch on the Musicom. Brilliant!
