"Used from 2008-2009 to activate his rack units, in conjunction with his Sound Sculpture Switchblade. The unit was marked for specific presets on his Korg A2 and TC Electronic rack unit.

The pedal was also used from 2011-2012 to control four Voodoo Lab Switcher units, allowing Ed to switch multiple pedals on and off simultaneously. His presets on the 2011-2012 tour include 'Magpie V' (verse), 'Magpie CH' (chorus), 'Separator V', 'Separator CH', 'Idenitikit', 'Android Start', and 'Android'."
