While McCarthy’s Media Menace has been enjoying a two-year hiatus, Mr. McCarthy has been working on and fine-tuning his own music. (See McCarthy and the Red Menace for more information.) As he is a big fan of The Raveonettes, he has scoured the Googles and Interwebz for photos such as the one below, wondering just how the band gets that special sound.

With every tour, the board seems to change. This photo was taken at the band’s recent stop at the A&R Music Bar in Columbus, Sept. 29:

Here’s the breakdown:

Eventide Space
Boss TU-3
Boss RV-5 (I believe that one’s set to Plate–not sure–and was a secondary reverb)
Boss RV-5 (I believe that one’s set to Spring, and was on the entire show)
Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Octave Fuzz
ProCo Rat 2 (in terms of a clock, settings appear to be D=9ish, F=9ish, V=1-2ish)
MXR Micro Amp (every time he punched this thing, it got LOUD, as if it couldn’t get any louder)
TC Electronic Flashback
