In this picture taken at her home, we can see an Effectrode Blackird. It is not connected to the pedalboard in this picture as at the time it is still being "tested", although it will almost certainly replace the Darkglass Vintage Deluxe as it shows pretty light overdrive settings on the second channel, reminiscent of the sound she has in "Il delirio dell'utente", from Oslavia's "Stereotipi"
