(...) For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Tour (1991-92)

(...) Edward's live rig consisted of three Peavey 5150 cabinets, each housing four 12-inch speakers at 75-watts. One cabinet amplified a dry signal and the other two ran stereo effects. The speakers in the dry cabinet differed from the two effected cabinets in that they featured a lower efficiency coil form, which promoted a natural breakup and a more desirable tone. This cabinet fed a Palmer Speaker Simulator with a line level out to a Bradshaw switching system that controlled an Eventide H-3000 Harmonizer, two Roland SDE-3000s, a Lexicon PCM-70, an MXR Phase 90, a Boss SD-1, a Cry Baby Wah Wah, and a Boss OC-2.

(...) Right Here, Right Now Tour (1993)

(...) Edward's live rig consisted of three Peavey 4-by-12 cabinets: one dry and two with effects. Each effected cabinet was paired with an SDE-3000 digital delay, with the delay time on one set to one-half the delay time on the other to created a layered echo. An Evantide H3000 fed both effected cabinets along with a Lexicon PCM-70 digital reverb, which was used during his unaccompanied solo for "Cathedral." All remaining effects were handled with effects pedals patched in via a Bob Bradshaw footswitching system. The Bradshaw unit featured four presets: one was a SDE-3000/H3000 combination, a second added a BOSS OC-2 octave divider, the third featured an MXR Phase 90 phaser, and the fourth added a Dunlop Crybaby Wah-Wah, which was always kept in the ON position. On stages that required extra-long cable runs, Edward added a BOSS SD-1 Super Overdrive pedal to boost the signal to the wah (which occurred at approximately 10 shows throughout the tour). A Rockman noise gate was used with Ed's Sony wireless unit which sent a clean signal to his Peavey 5150 head. The signal was fed through a Palmer speaker simulator and an H&H power amp before hitting the speaker cabinets. The entire rig was capped off with Furman power conditioners keeping control of the AC voltage.
