Joe Perry
Perry's backstage rack held a compressor/boost and five distinct drive or boost voices under RJM control, allowing the gain structure to change from preset to preset.

Tech Darren Hurst names all six rack effects and explicitly describes Compadre boost into Perry's Klon into the TS9. The RevivalDRIVE, Blues Driver and Micro Boost are independent programmable stages whose position and combination can vary, so the visual order after that verified three-device cascade is organizational rather than a claim of fixed wiring. Perry's 2026 interview independently confirms the original Klon as indispensable and compression at the start of his preferred path. Wah and Whammy controllers, the RJM control surfaces and amplifiers are omitted.
