The Devil Wears Prada’s Chris Rubey
Rubey uses a separate Sennheiser EW 500 G3 wireless system for each guitar. From there, the signal flows into a Whirlwind MultiSelector 4x, and then into a Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor, an Ibanez TS9DX for more dirt, an Electro-Harmonix Micro POG Polyphonic Octave Generator, a Boss TR-2 Tremolo, Boss DD-20 Giga Delay, a DigiTech Whammy, and his signal reaches the head via an ISP Decimator II Noise Reduction pedal. An Electro Harmonix Holy Grail Plus is patched into the amp’s effects loop. Rubey runs a Boss NS-2 and an Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Nano Reverb in the effects loop of his Orange TH30.
We rummaged through our entire backlog of Rig Rundown footage and photos to compile a guide to some of 2014’s tastiest, most elaborate stomp stations, including boards from the Cult’s Billy Duffy, Keith Urban, the Pixies, the Sword, Carlos Santana, Brent Mason, and more.
