During the "HOTEI Live in Japan 2019 GUITARHYTHM Tour," Tomoyasu Hotei utilized the Yamaha SPX90 Digital Multi Effects Processor, as noted by Free The Tone.

In a 2010 Twitter post, he said: “I used the ROLAND GP-8 for the first time in a while. I think long-time fans remember it, During the recording of his first solo album “GUITARHYTHM” after BOΦWY disbanded. I chose this GP-8 when I wanted to break away from the sound of my band days and pursue a more direct and sharp sound. The guitar sound for ``GUITARHYTHM'' was created using only the GP-8, without using any amplifiers. No matter what you say, the unique sound of the built-in effector is attractive. In particular, the clean arpeggio sound created by combining a compressor, EQ, and chorus is full of memories. The chorus of Glorious Days, the intro of STRANGE VOICE, etc. Fukutomi immediately looked for it on an online auction and found that he could buy it at a very reasonable price. Recent multi-effectors seem to be great, but this "GP-8". This is a masterpiece that I highly recommend to guitarists who are guitar rhythm fans. You can also reproduce C'MON, Materials, and WAITING FOR YOU. ”
