Rival Consoles' Effects Pedals
In an interview with Attack Magazine, Rival Consoles discusses his approach to enhancing synth sounds with effects. He mentions using a chain of pedals, including the Boss OD-3 OverDrive, to add depth and texture to his music.

In a studio photo from Xlr8r, Rival Consoles can be seen with a TC Electronic Ditto Looper positioned to the right of a MacBook.
Synths can easily sound uninspiring, so here is my growing chain of effects. First off, the Copycat tape delay. This is my second one. I love how it breaks up the sound when cranked. The Moog Midimurf I also use to break up the sound into little fragments of stuttered sound. Finally, there’s a simple loop pedal for building layers of ambience.
