RackSystems: Justin Derrico B-Rig with short Video

[Mark Day]

Here is a very quick vid shot with an iPhone of the rig we just built for Pink's Justin Derrico.
This is Justin's B-Rig that will be going out on tour with Pink.

His A rig is exactly the same except all gear is in one huge case.
The B-Rig is necessary for certain fly gigs.

Justin is a great player and a really nice guy.

Sounds and looks damn good!! And yes, Justin is a great player and very nice guy!! Well done

I'm very interested in this as I see extensive use of the GCX, and I'm pondering racking all my stomps - cost is about the same as it is to lay 'em all out on a TT board with dual power supplies and blah blah blah... I need to watch the clip as to what the mini-gizmos are for. Nicely done - thanks for posted this Mark.

Mini Effect gizmo's are use for all the pedals in front of the amp. The top gcx 4 loops are used for stuff in the to shivas loop. Those are the univibe, Ce-2 chorus, Boss DD-20 delay and Roland SDE3000 delay. Gcx number 2 is used for just switching function. 3 for each amp and one for the palmer amp switcher.

Which Bogners are those? I know one's a Shiva, which seems to be a really popular amp for this sort of gig.

 

[Mark Day]

Top is a normal Shiva, bottom is 20th Anniversary Shiva.

Not much Boss stuff there...if I'm thinking of the right dude...

Cool "Red" RJM Mini Effect Gizmos

 

[RACKSYSTEMS]

Yeah like the red.

 

[Ventura]

Yeah like the red.

Thanks for the explanation above. FWIW, I've been trying to stamp out a proper layout and plan with Rooster, but it's been 2 years in the making and I keep changing what I want where. Most importantly, I don't want anything in the chain when it's not needed. I've toyed with the idea of 2 x GCX and controlling it with my GCP. I've got about 16 to 20 stomps. Some for loops - serial and parallel, others for up front. I also use a S-Go-S splitter to meld to heads and cabs with one signal, and I like my loop effects to change between the amps on the fly.

We may need to chat.

Looks great ... as usual. See a BF2 ... a personal favorite.

Mo .... I use two GCX with my GCP & System Mix Plus. Sometimes wish I had three. I have too many fuzz pedals....

Mark, any idea on what he used as an acoustic emulator for that Zeppelin cover he did with Pink, "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You"?

 

[glassjaw7]

Looks and sounds great! Nice work. Mo, I'm in the same boat as you with the pedals...back and forth for years between a rack setup and a board. Whatever I come up with seems so "final" and I'm always changing as a player and getting new stomps so I can't be done with it.

Mark or Dave, what head were we hearing at the end of that video? One or both? Sounded awesome!

I believe that was a Fishman Powerbridge (piezo system). I have one in my Les Paul and every soundman who hears it, tells me that it sounds better than any acoustic they've worked with.

 

[glassjaw7]

Bump!

Mark or Dave, is that gain sound coming from one of the amps or a mix of both?

Only 1 amp can be on at a time with this setup...so just one amp

- I believe you're thinking of Jimmy DeMarco - if you're referring to that goofball that demos BOSS effects.
