Thanks Jason, great to know in such detail, your rig.

Reference to a volume control on your SM57 caught my interest. I play guitar and harp in my band, so I have to have an on/off for when I put the mic down.

Will check that out..

Ricci - you still using that harmoniser ?

[jasonricci]

hell yeah.

[bmccarville]

OK, seriously, I am 10-15 per cent gay for you right now. I've been trying to figure out a rig this awesomlicous for years and now you've done it for me. I don't mean to alarm you but I have the beginnings of an erection right now just thinking about it.

....

I think what I'm trying to say is "THANK YOU!"

[jasonricci]

Thank you that is very sweet and flattering comment! Funny too. Thank you for watching.

looks like M.I. Movie looks cool M.I. Theme song da da da ta anyway I not @ that level yet. : )

[puskajjuuri]

I'm planning to get a SM57 (cause I've been listening you play :) ) and I have question about it: SM57 is a low impedance mic, so do I have to get some kind of impedance adapter or some other device to use it with a basic (guitar) tube amp (champ 5f1, valve junior combo, etc. ...)? Could you recommend one? Thanks!

Great gear, but you know, I reckon that like many of the other greats, it wouldn't matter what gear you used, it would sound fantastic.

Nice stuff Jason. My OC-2 finally went TU so I've pulled that out of my chain. I may pick up the Opto (or get one for my B Day). Still running through my DE7>PS5>Sonic Stomp>Tube MP>Board. Sounds sweet (especially with the SS). BTW, no longer in S. Florida. Now in Tulsa. Let me know if you ever get this way. Cains Ballroom (Yes, the Cains Ballroom) would be a great venue for you. Cheers! Mikel Lee

@betorabelo1 If I may, the Sonic Maximizer is not responsible for the deep bass, all the Sonic Maximizer does is bring out the best in the signal, I have one and it makes a difference. Jason use to use a PS5 phase shifter. Not sure if he still does. I do and I when I use it (which is seldom) you can get the underlying bass line. It's a great effect on certain songs but it's not for "every" song. J...if I'm wrong please correct me. Mikel Lee
