"On the ground I have a bunch of pedals: the BCM Brian May, a whiteface Rat reissue, a Menatone Blue Collar overdrive, a Fulltone Plimsoul, a Line 6 M9, a Fulltone Clyde wah, a Boss RC-30 looper and the TC Flashback delay – but that's the one you can buy only through Pro Guitar Shop.com. They call it the Alter Ego. I also have the Strymon El Capistan tape echo."

Loop 2: Boss RE-20 Space Echo, Eventide Time Factor Delay, Eventide Space

"In the effects loop of the preamp, I have the Eventide Time Factor, and I also have and an old Alesis MidiVerb 2, which I only use on preset 45, which is called the 'Bloom' setting. It's a reverse reverb kind of thing, and it's very beautiful." – Jeff Schroeder on the Eventide TimeFactor

"...Billy will laught at this [laugh], my Dunlop Joe Bonamassa Wah Pedal, but it's really a phenomenal wah pedal, I mean, his ear for that type of tone, it really sounds like Jeff Beck's Truth era wah, it sounds great"

In the Premier Guitar Rig Rundown article publ 23 November 2022 this pedal is seen as well.

In this promotional material by Origin Effects, Jeff Schroeder is quoted as saying:

The Cali76 is hands down the best compressor in a pedal format I’ve ever played. The pedal sounds absolutely gorgeous and feels very natural under the fingers. It has become an essential element of my clean sound both in the studio and in my live rig.

In this Origin Effects material, Jeff Schroeder discusses his use of the RD Compact Hot Rod.

The RD Compact Hot Rod solves a problem I’ve always had when using a hi-gain distortion pedal: having a great clean and without any compromise of the distorted tone. The EQ and tonal structure of this pedal allows the user to shape the distortion around a variety of clean sounds, and it always sounds great.

Live with the Smashing Pumpkins, I use a multi-channel amp. The RD Compact Hot Rod gives me one more gain channel.
