What do you mean? I suppose that it would certainly be possible, but the tunings page seems to cover that already. Or do you mean one with images of all setlists, regardless of if they are marked or not?

Such a page has been in the works in various incarnations since the start of the site, but it is a huge endeavor and I wouldn’t want to post it unless it had absolutely everything. Although most of...

This should answer your question: http://thekingofgear.com/post/27873302306/idiotequeAlso, on Ed’s latest pedalboard, one of the switching units has “A2/Listen” labeled on one of the loops. He probably...

This is all regarding live versions obviously: That depends entirely upon the song, and what each member needs to do for that particular song. 15 Step is triggered by Colin and Jonny, although the main...

View ArticleWhat effect is used during the verse of Coke Babies?
During the first verse? That’s a delay set up in stereo. Maybe one of Ed’s rack units, considering the era that it’s from, though more likely something from the studio that they were recording in.

I only really know of him using it for its sweep delay on Idiotque and The Gloaming, and for looping. He’s probably used it for other stuff as well, but that is pretty hard to say definitively as he...

I really doubt that he adjusts them, it would be difficult to do live and take a while. Also, I have never seen him do so live, and I don’t really see why he would have to adjust the frequency knob....

I believe that that is played by the infamous Jonny Greenwood and the instrument is none other than the equally infamous Ondes Martenot.

You answer should be here, under the Envelope Filters section, although for live performances in recent years he’s been using his actual Wah pedal.

With some old loops from OK Computer, an MC505, Protools, Autotune(Thom spoke his vocals, the computer entirely created the melody) and Alice and Wonderland.

I have read that it was the Roland MC505, but I have also read that it was entirely done on Thom’s laptop. I know for sure that the latter was said by Colin, so that’s probably the answer.
