Adam Hann

On May 15 2020, Adam Hann posted a photo of his Korg Miku Stop during a The 1975 listening party on Twitter. He was commenting that he has used this on said album. The May 15 listening party was The 1975's 3rd album, A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. There are several tweets announcing this on the official The 1975 twitter page.

Hann uses this pedal for "Sex and Milk" and pictured it as well as many other effects on his list on Instagram.

In this Instagram photo the MXR M134 Stereo Chorus can be found besides the ProCo Rat 2 and it can be heard on "Girls", "Settle Down", "Heart Out" and "Pressure".

"Above all, we wanted it to sound not like a traditional guitar solo; it just needed to sound interesting. It then goes from that into a Klon—with no drive on it really, just to beef up the mids—and then through a Roland CE-1 chorus."

"I have a Klon in there—more or less most of the clean stuff will have a Klon on it just to prop it up, to make it sound a bit nicer. I know a lot of people are skeptical about Klons, but personally I think you struggle to find an overdrive that sounds that nice, especially in the low mids. Maybe I’ve got swept up in the hype, but I think it’s worth the money I paid for it"

As seen in the Instagram pedalboard shot, the Boss CS-3 is part of Adam Hann's pedalboard.

Adam Hann frequently uses the Strymon TimeLine pedal, especially for creating swells and the lead riff in "Robbers." It also features prominently in performances of "You," "Settle Down," "HNSCC," "An Encounter," and "Sex." This usage is highlighted in a post on his Instagram account.

Hann pictured his pedalboard on Instagram where the Electro Harmonix Hog Guitar Synthesizer can be seen. Hann also has the HOG footswitch accessory on his board. The HOG is prominent in Hann's parts in "M.O.N.E.Y."

Adam Hann mentions the King of Tone in this Instagram photo of his pedalboard with the caption "+ a king of tone. Gunna need a bigger board...."

Adam Hann of The 1975 discusses the use of a Mu-Tron Bi-Phase phaser pedal in creating layered, organic sounds. Although he does not own the pedal himself, it is utilized by producer Mike Crossey. The Mu-Tron Bi-Phase is noted for its classic status and high demand. This information is detailed in Premier Guitar's article, "The 1975: Adam Hann’s Sonic Obsession."

In this Instagram photo shared by Adam Hann of his pedalboard, you can see the Boss GE-7 Equalizer pedal in the top left corner.

"So the main part goes through the Electro-Harmonix Micro Synth, which gives it a weird, slightly slower attack—makes it like a wah-esque attack—with a low octave in there."
