Live in Concert settings and setups

Read more: gear run-down

Keep in mind that all effect settings and setups are based on pictures and video from a certain date and/or interviews and 3rd hand transcriptions that are subject to interpretation. David often make adjustments and may not even be consequent in how he’s using the equipment. This feature should therefore only be used as a guideline for your own setup and not as a gospel. It’s also wise to acknowledge that technique, place and time, studio trickery and who knows what plays a role in David’s tones in addition to the equipment.

Boss CS-2
– level 2:00, attack 11:00, sustain 11:30 (o’clock)

Pete Cornish G-2
– sustain 100%, tone 10:30, volume 1:00 (o’clock)

Big Muff
– sustain 1:00, tone 10:00, volume 11:00 (o’clock)

Pete Cornish SS-2
– volume 12:00, tone 1:00, sustain 12:30 (o’clock)

Note: These settings are based on a picture of the Division Bell/PULSE rig.

Tube Driver 1 (volume boost)
– level 2:00, hi 2:00, low 2:00, drive 8:00 (o’clock)

Tube Driver 2 (overdrive)
– level 11:30, hi 11:30, low 3:00, drive 4:00 (o’clock)

Note: There’s only one Tube Driver in the studio board but the settings above is based on the two main settings from David’s new stage board.

Please note: Very little from the recording sessions is confirmed. I have sticked to using general terms as overdrive and distortion, rather than guessing which pedal David’s using unless confirmed info is available.
