ohn posted on his Facebook Page about trying something new and the Boogie® EQ Pedal was installed in
the FX Loop of John’s TriAxis™/2:Ninety™ rig for Dream
Theater’s San Francisco show at the Warfield Theater. It was
basically a done deal after soundcheck, but… the true test
is always during ‘battle’ as John calls it… (the gig)… The new
Boogie Graphic brought a new level of tone and adjustability to the rig and to John’s heavy sounds in particular.
John previously used the TriAxis’ Dynamic Voice feature
for EQ’ing heavy rhythm sounds which is a preset Mid
Scoop+Bass & Treble Boost curve that increases as you
raise it’s level. That feature remains available as an alternative, switchable EQ option for John’s sounds if a different EQ curve is desired on a different patch/setting. But the
Boogie Five-Band is the new EQ curve in town!
Below is John’s signal path for his latest TriAxis/2:Ninety
touring rig:
Guitar > A/B Switcher Box > Dunlop Cry Baby rack wah >
Pedal drawer with pedals in individual loops (Tone-Burst™ >
Flux-Drive™ > MXR EVH Phase 90 > TC Electronic JP Dream
Scape > Boss Dimension C > Analog Man Juicer compressor)
> TriAxis >FX Send into Boogie Five-Band Graphic EQ > FX
Return > TriAxis Main Outs to Axe FX > 2:Ninety > two Recto®
1×12 cabinets > Mic’d to FOH with Shure SM57 and Shure
313 Ribbon mic. Rig controlled by RJM GT22 controller.
