Kurt Rosenwinkel's Effects Pedals

I use some different pedals which help me to shape the transient portion of the tone. I like to shave off the attack a little bit and then bring back the transient using compression. One pedal that does this is the Line 6 DL-4. I also use a Boss OC-3 Super Octave to get bass notes only on the bottom range of the guitar.
