What is all this stuff?? Sorry for the stupid question, but I want to know what it all is and what it all does.

LOL! That's John Petrucci's rack setup! I was gonna use that as my avatar, too.

I think there's a list of what it is on johnpetrucci.com, but from here I can identify
- Three Boogie Mk.IIC+ heads
- a rack tuner
- an Eventide harmonizer
- A dunlop Crybaby rack unit
- Furman power conditioner
- Three switcher units (MIX, GCX, and MESA)
- four TC Electronics processors (looks like 2 Gforces and 2 2290's)
- some sort of interface unit
- another Furman unit

Thanks B2D!! I've promised myself that I will someday have a set up like that.

I use an overdrive pedal. I'm considering buying a tuner.

I wouldn't personnaly want that... I'm a simple kinda guy with my gear... that's way too much for me... I guess I'll be able to buy a house instead....

Well, I don't think I would go to that extreme with my own setup, but I sure would like to have something similar to it.

Once you go rack... you never go back!

Reminds me of my mini-rack. Here's a pic of mine. I can dial in just about any sound with this beast. From the bottom: Hartke Bass amp (I play bass too), VHT 2502 power amp, Egnater Ie4 preamp (4 channels of bliss - now use 2 Randall RM4 preamps), MXR 126 Analog Flanger, Chandler stereo echo, BK Butler Real Tube Spring reverb, Rockman stereo chorus, Rockman stereo echo, Tuner, power conditioner, and on top... my favorite...Roland Space Echo analog tape echo.

Re: What is all this??(PIC)!!

If I ever use something like that someone please kill me. If that is John's rack, he has gone overboard. I used to hear him sitting down playing through a little Rockman into some small speakers and he was amazing, that is overkill and then some IMO. What the hell though to each his own, the Boogies are certainly cool!

Re: What is all this??(PIC)!!

That's just insane, How much time does he have to spend twisting knobs and flipping switches to get the tone he wants?

I got the pic off of DT's website so I assume it really was John's setup. He's got an awfull lot of stuff running in that rack.
