"Enter the RG-16. This midi interface has made my life a lot easier. Now if I want to go from, say, my lead channel with my NS-2 and TS-9 to my clean channel with my compressor, DD7, RV5, on and my NS-2 and TS-9 off, I just have to hit one button on my Mastermind Midi Controller. It makes my life a LOT easier and makes tone changes a breeze. The setup was pretty complex and required the building of a ton of custom cables. The cable making was easy though, thanks to the custom cable making kits that Planet Waves makes. "

The item can be seen 15:17 into this video.

From a [Guitar World Article](http://www.guitarworld.com/caspian-s-guide-creating-wall-sound-four-essential-pedalboard-tricks), Jonny's signal chain continues past the DL4 to a Boss reverb pedal.

Would you go as far as saying RV-5s are crucial to the Raveonettes sound? Oh, they’re 100 percent crucial. I don’t think I could play a show without them. It’s the best-sounding spring reverb I’ve ever heard. Nothing compares to it. I don’t know how they did it, but it’s absolutely amazing. I haven’t heard a plug-in, an amplifier, or anything that sounds as good as that spring reverb. I have no idea how they were able to get such an amazing sound. It’s pretty crazy.

That's been a recent addition to my live setting, as something that can be pulled out for dramatic effect."

"At tonight’s gig, Kirin was using 17 Boss effects pedals, an amount of gear he swears he requires to be able to reproduce the tracks from ‘Embracism’. “The Slicer pedal, the SL-20. The RV-5 reverb, the twin, DD-20 Giga Delay,” he says as he begins to list the Boss pedals which are most prominent in his music. “The Boss tuner makes a big appearance on every song,” he continues. “The main ones are beautiful, the reverb … and not just for the big reverb sounds but a lot of them are sharp and gated and cut-off, harsh sounds, that sound like some sort of nasty distortion rather than reverb. The pitch shifters as well, that’s the sound on ‘Embracism’ that people always mistake for synthesiser.”

I’ll tweak it and get some cool stuff out of it. It has a lot of cool features to it, and if you want to roll the knobs around while you’re playing you can get some really crazy things that I think are cool, frankly. [Laughs.] But live, on stage, I put it on a light plate and just leave it on the whole show. I never turn it off."

"My pedal board is split into 2 channels with a Line Selector. Channel one has all the indispensables: EHX Ring Mod, Boss OC3, Whammy Pedal, Boss DS or a RAT, Boss DD5, and now a Hexe Revolver too. Channel 2 is to cut from whatever combination of those to just clean, or a Boss RV5. I’ll probably replace the RV5 with a Line6 M9, to expand Channel 2, and probably put an M5 in 'channel 1’. Nothing too fancy. I can’t say I’ve exhausted that setup yet."
