Guitar is connected straight to MC404 CAE Wha pedal. Next device in the chain is a Pete Cornish LD-1 (buffer) and from there it goes to the rack. There is also a DIN to XLR converter box for MIDI. And a battery interface with Volt display for the Wha.

Another close up view of the rack and the effects.
The pedal is connected to audio loops 1-5 on the RJM switcher. MXR Phase 90, Foxrox Octron, EHX Deluxe Electric Mistress Flanger, Pete Cornish NG-3 Fuzz and Xotic EP Booster. The output on the RJM switcher feeds the Marshall and this is the DRY signal flow.
Here is a look at the back of the amp rack with the Suhr ISO Line Out Box. The box is used after the amps at speaker level to create a line level signal for the WET part of the rig. There is also a custom AC power box and a speaker thru box with Speakon connection.
Line level feeds the RJM rack and splits signal to two Roland SDE-3000 delays and a Pete Cornish Chorus + T.E.S. Delay.
The output of the effects is summed down in parallel with RJM Mini Line Mixer. Left and Right outputs on the mixer goes to Matrix GT1000FX-2U PowerAmp and from there to the WET 4X12 speaker cabinets.
Everything is controlled with RJM Mastermind GT/10.
And for all you gear nerds out there (including myself) here's my pedal board and there will be more to come!
My pedal board on this tour is very basic and basically back to the roots. It's almost identical to the same pedal board I used on the Wings of Tomorrow (On the Loose) and The Final Countdown tour in the'80s except for the Wha pedal.
1. Jim Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Wha.
2. Boss DS-1 from 1981 (not to be confused with the modern MIT DS-1. They have nothing to do with each other except for the name and the color). And I use it mainly to give the Strat a solo boost.
3. Switch for the Dunlop MXR Echoplex Delay which is in the loop of the amp which I will get to later.
4. Channel switch for a clean and dirty sound.
5. MXR Micro Chorus.
6. Pete Cornish LD-1 Line Driver/Buffer so you don't lose any signal when you use 25 m cable.
