Board to Death Ep. 25 - Lindsey Jordan (Snail Mail) | EarthQuaker Devices

Lindsey Jordan of Snail Mail takes us through a tour of her pedalboard, while on stage at the Beachland Ballroom in Cleveland Ohio. Data Corrupter helps her get weird sometimes, while Palisades assists with the gnarly overdrive. She doesn't use pedals for writing or recording too much but when playing live, Lindsey really digs an Arrows Pre-Amp Booster for leads and solos. The Warden keeps her various playing styles locked down with smooth optical compression that can't be beat.

That chorus really does make her live sound. Awesome artist that is absolutely worth seeing perform.

[@fuzzcaster]

So awesome to see Lindsey on here!
I've been curious about her board, she used to just have the Palisades and the chorus.
That wiring/layout though..

[@sassycat]

from what ive heard of snail mail, I can't imagine what she would do with a data corrupter.

[@shinbulb]

[@mikogale]

[@almessinger1834]

Very true about adding effects after writing a song because he be right there with the effects and play without the effects it might sound like shit

#supernecessary

[@mmonkeyman1403]

If that Chorus works like I think it does (I own one), not sure it's really doing anything with the configuration she's using it with.

[@StricklandPropane3]

true… haha it looks like she has the depth knob almost set to 0, strange….

[@molly-me5ik]

nice

[@endezeichengrimm]

Erm.... Why does she have cling wrap on her arm?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

get a tattoo today and find out

[@brendandive3757]

This is a great insight into her process! Also does anyone get an Emma Stone vibe from her speaking voice/tone/vibe? Just a thought haha.

[@ADP72]

"give me the most expensive one you have"

[@EarthQuakerDevices]
