Mike Patton's Studio Equipment
Patton also uses a CB radio mic that is plugged into a Korg Kaoss pad for added distortion and delay effects, as well as a pair of full-size megaphones miked with a Shure Beta 98 taped inside and a radio transmitter strapped to the side of each unit. In Patton’s vocal chain, Brennan uses Avid plug-ins for reverbs, distortion, delays, tape flanging and Leslie speaker simulation. - See more at: http://www.mixonline.com/news/tours/faith-no-more/424720#sthash.lLEGuRQB.dpuf
