"I remember my signal path because I still have it! [laughs] I plugged into a Roland SDE-1000 delay, and then I had an Eventide H3000 SE – I ran stuff from it in stereo and then I compressed it with a DBX 160S two-channel compressor. At that point, I had a left and a right signal, so I had a pair of stacks on each side, with each made up of a Roland JC120 solid-state head, a four by 12 Marshall cabinet and a four by 12 Sonic cab – both of those had Celestion speakers. Also, on each side of the stacks, I had a Fender Concert, a great tube amp with one 12-inch speaker.

Quoted from the interview about his studio, Bob said:

Pretty much use Mark of the Unicorn transformers and a couple of Yamaha O2r's that I leave everything plugged in and set up so I run everything through them. I actually like the sounds of the pre-amps in the O2r's. They are really brash and crazy sounding.

Quoted from the interview, Bob said this about his dbx 166:

I also like really shitty compressors, like the cheap dbx 166 rack mount. When I am doing all my filter house stuff — you know, Daft Punk-sounding stuff, the cheaper the compressor the better the sound, cause you get that totally trashy up-front sound.
