Anyone else got ideas of unusual places to do it?

Yes, I would really love to play in a Planetarium with all the stars projected
and adding some fractal images to the "sky".

FingerPaint performed at a planetarium on the Montgomry College Campus in
Takoma Park, MD. There was also suppossed to  be a laser light show as part
of the evening. But we played there three time over the course of two years
and never saw much of a show. The stars were kind of nice though.

I guess that our recent debate about the legalities of sampling took the
wind out of the list.

So, since there have been very few posts to LD, what recordings can everyone
recommend?

Lately, I've been listening to:

"Forever Sharp and Vivid" by David Torn (guitar), Chris Massey (drums) and
David Castiglione (bass clarinet and sax).

"Unfolded Like Staircase" by Discipline (a Detroit area band that sounds
like Genesis and Gentle Giant circa 1974)

"Rhinoplasty" by Primus

I've been listening to

Jeff Pearce - Vestiges 
        breathtakingly beautiful soundscapes
Sabot -
        A great band from Boston, dark, eerie, a bit like King Crimson's Islands
Fingerpaint- Blue
        the sound of machines vreating the universe
Beatles - Revolver
Michelle Abby w/ Doug Robinson - Spinner
        sort of Laura Nyro meets Rickie Lee Jones w/ a jazzier George MArtin
producing

Faith and Disease -  Insularia
        more haunting dark gothy folkish stuff

I forgot to say, I'm going to try one of these Zooms next monday. so
I'll give you a short review if you like.
Scanning through some of the past year's digests I was particularly
intrigued by some mention of loopisms in unusual venues. 
There's a cave complex quite near where I live and I've always wanted to
do a really atmospheric gig there. I might look into it, (the idea, not
the cave). Anyone else got ideas of unusual places to do it?

well mark - here's what i've been listening to; some loopy, some not:

i've been spending time with Seven Veils by robert rich (d. torn on 2
tracks).
very dreamy, very dark.

the latest madeski-martin-wood, Combustication, is nice. i don't know if
i like the turntable stuff, though; hiphop music culture isn't my bag, i
think it's a little too trendy.
(i guess i'll get a bunch of mail about that comment being close-minded
or whatever. sorry. not saying it's bad, just saying it's not for me.)

i've been listening to some older stuff too:

Dream by u. srinivas, michael brook, et al, almost never leaves my cd
tray. golly.

the 1st steve tibbets on cuneiform is fun. i just got it & never knew
that he was such a rock-god style player. hendrix, mclaughlin, & page
influences all over his sleeve.

Homage To Our Guru by aashish khan & indranil bhattacharya is some
amazing raga duet. sarod vs. sitar reminiscent of ravi & ali akbar in
the 50's & 60's.

that's my 2  cents!

bobdog

My recent faves have been, in no particular order:

DJ Spooky: Riddim Warfare - Finally, his second "official" full length,
after various samplers, remixes and limited-release art projects. Much more
hip hop and less ambient than "Songs of a Dead Dreamer", with occaisional
raps by Kool Keith and Sir Menelik. A very good hip hop record, perhaps
equal to PE's "Fear of a Black Planet". He's playing nearby in a few weeks,
and I'll be there.

Shudder To Think: the soundtrack to High Art - the guitarist I play with is
a huge STT fan, and I've always liked their stuff that he's played for me.
This record is pretty surprising: dark, ambient guitar and vocal washes,
some morricone-esquetrip-hop, and a couple of low key pop tunes. It's a
really effective record, and made me want to see the film, which is also
quite good.

Henry Kaiser/Waddada Leo Smith: Yo, Miles - No looping here, just a very
solid collection of '70's electric Miles Davis tunes, particularly from the
more guitar-driven Jack Johnson through Pangea period. Kaiser and Nels
Cline on guitar, Smith on trumpet, the ROVA sax quartet, Michael Manring on
bass, and many others. This period of Mile's music is an enormous influence
on me, some of the first improvised music I ever heard, and I didn't have
very high expectations of this record living up to the originals, and, to
it's benefir, it doesn't really try, it just uses the tunes as blowing
vehicles, and sounds great.

Hamster Theatre: Siege on Hamburger City - Probably the most obscure thing
here. Dave Willey is an old acquaintance of mine I first met about 18 years
ago when he had just graduated from high school, he was a phenomenal
keyboardist and guitarist then. I kind of lost track of him after he moved
to Boulder Colorado. A mutual friend sent me this, the new CD from his
current band. Very cool stuff. Dave plays mostly accordian here and wrotes
most of the material. It's kind of like a cross between some of Fred
Frith's more avant takes on Eastern European folk musics, Bulgarian wedding
music, and an almost Naked City-esque precision. Incredible fun stuff. All
the more amazing, this CD was recorded live> Contact info: Hamster Theatre,
35047 Boulder Canyon Drive, Boulder, CO 80302, dhamster@hotmail.com

Not very 'up to date', but anyway: after some time of moving around a lot I
recently set up my old record player again and had a lot of fun revisiting
early 70's British art rock (Colosseum, Gentle Giant, King Crimson) as well
as some nice jazz stuff from that period (Circle: Braxton, Holland, Corea &
Altshul; Vienna Art Orchestra).

There is a lesser know outing in quartett format by pianist Bob Degen with
Terumasa Hino on tpt where they are dramatically deconstructing an
odd-meter ostinato into cacophony over a 13 minute period and still make it
back to the head ('Children of the Night', ENJA ca. '78) that I always
liked a lot.....hey, wouldn't it be great to have a looper that can (on
command) apply some kind of variation to the material it is cycling -
possibly reacting to what the soloist is doing? 

Can any of these computer based systems do things like that?

Best, Andreas

Henry Kaiser does a yearly space jam up at Chabot Planetarium in the Oakland 
hills of California... He invites a few others to accompany the visuals. It's 
pretty cool. I have to say it sounds like a perfect context for loopers to me as
well...

It's worth asking the director or manager of a site if they have any regular 
events and the pecking order involved. It may be as simple as signing up. Many 
observatories and planetariums are school owned research facilities and 
non-commercial events are encouraged if they work into the schedule.

He also usually is a performer at a yearly event at the columbarium in the
Oakland Cemetary. An assortment of experimental musicians set up in
different rooms and play throughout the day. I haven't been, but it always
sounded like a great thing, with a lot of very interesting musicians.
Intriguing location, too. It's really a very beautiful cemetary, with
fantastic views of San Francisco and the Bay. My girlfriend drags me over
there for walks sometimes.

Lately I've found that, after spending eight hours in a record store,
I'm disinclined to go home and listen to more music.  So let me see if
anything from work has caught my ear...

-- UNKLE is the new project by DJ Shadow and Mo'Wax label head James
Lavelle, with lots of guest vocalists.  Some really good stuff on here;
Shadow's work is about the most "musical" DJ/sample-based stuff I've
heard, by which I mean that it's amazing how unified and cohesive he's
able to make music constructed entirely out of samples of other people's
music.  There's a surprisingly strong prog-rock vibe running through a
lot of this record, too (the main title tune sounds like some long-lost
Rush bit circa "Permanent Waves.")  Shadow's beat programming is always
worth checking out.

-- Heard bits and pieces of the new DJ Spooky album and liked it.  The
jungle tune "Polyphony of One" blew my *#&@^ mind.

-- Ozomatli is an LA-based latin/funk/hip-hop conglomeration that
produces some pretty happening and unlikely hybrids of the above
influences.  One of the more engaging records I've heard in a while, and
probably the only group I've heard at all that features a DJ and a tabla
player trading fours in their live show.

-- Skimmed through the new Soul Coughing, "El Oso," and liked it a lot. 
The much-hyped drum & bass influence doesn't add up to much more than a
proliferation of very tightly-played eighth-note rock beats (not that
that's a bad thing), but it's still a very inventive and surprisingly
accessible (though mostly uncompromising) disc.

-- Massive Attack's "Mezzanine" is practically nothing but a collection
of loops.  Some of the tunes strike me as being more style than
substance (I can understand why Rolling Stone described it as the "Muzak
of choice of 1998"), but there's some very strong (and very dark) stuff
on here.  Probably my favorite "trip-hop/downtempo" record that I've run
across.

Pretty much everything else that comes to mind is either too far removed
from this list or too uninteresting to comment on (I've probably heard
the new Chris Isaak more times than any of the above, but such is retail
life...)

ornette coleman's "tone dialing", fripp's "that which passes"

> Khmer 
> Nils Potter Molvaer. This was mentioned on the "powerspot" list.  I like
>this CD alot - Simply Wonderful 


hey gang , I love Khmer too. Nils Petter and his band are among the top  of Norwegian musicians. I`ve taken a couple of lessons from the main guitarist on the album , Eivind Aarset , and he is amazing. On Khmer you get an idea of his wonderful use of the E-bow. He has an album out now called "Electronique Noir" and it`s very modern. Trip hop and D`n`B with lots of great guitarplaying. Eivind uses a Jamman because his Oberheim Echoplex didn`t work properly. Probably the same problems some of the people on this list has experienced.

Anyway , if you can find it I highly recomend his album , "Electronique Noir".

Yours , Thomas W

I was glad to see Andre LaFosse notice the growing progressive
influence on DJ Shadow.  On his last release there was a very 
interesting piece called "High Noon" that sounds like some 
obscure, unreleased fusion jam with Mitch Mitchell on drums,
Keith Emerson on B3 and some unknown others.  What is very
amazing to me is that his conglomeration of samples sounds
so well integrated and organic that you are listening to some
very fine, well rehearsed band.  Amazing stuff.  It has the
same visceral response as listening to Jeff Beck playing 
"Where were you?" or Allan Holdsworth playing "Road Games"..
that you are listening to a master and there's no way in hell
I'd be able to take the samples from 5 different songs and make
a tune out of it.

Latest listening:
Shawn Lane/Jonas Hellborg - Time Is The Enemy
Buckethead - Colma
Anders Johannsson - Red Shift
Western Vacation
Ozric Tentacles - Curious Corn
Robert Fripp - Gates of Paradise

Aliensporebomb - unreleased current project.

oh, what the hell, my $.02....

- NAMANAX - "Audiotronic" and "Monstrous" - if you can hang on through the
noise content, you will find some interesting drifting loops and sub-bass
rumblings, courtesy of Relapse records co-founder B. Yurkiewicz and guitar-
guru/producer James Plotkin....

- LULL - "Moments" - of course, if you just want the sub-bass loops without
the noise, here it is, courtesy of PAINKILLER/SCORN mastermind Mick Harris....

- Chris Farmer - "Getting Warm on the Trail of Heat*" - might be hard to find,
but some really freaky lo-fi beat loopage and experimentation from this
Richmond, VA. local takes some very interesting turns....

first three available from Relapse - po box 251 - Millersville, PA  17551. The
last one might be hard to find - if anyone wants a dub of it, let me know and
I'll see what I can do (and in fact, the liner notes had a line about the
absence of copyright and to dub for anyone who wants one, so we don't have to
go into the copyright roundabout again...)

* - and if anyone knows where the title reference comes from, please fill my
dumb ass in.

hey guys I figured I'd give you guys first dibs on some looping tech. 
Kinda low tech but for you cheapo loopers it should suffice quite well.
	
	Digitech 1002 two second delay pedal: this is is the basic light blue 2
sec unit with two pedals, one to turn the effect on the other to hold the
loop infinitely.  has a range from 2 sec to 125 msecs.
	Digitech 20/20 two sec delay pedal: this is a variation on above, it is
red and has the same specs but with an LFO to control delay speed, you
control width and speed. You can get everything from flange and doubling
sounds to setting a loop and having it speed up and slow down like a record
player.

	I'd like to sell the lot for 75$ plus shipping for both units or cool
trades for broken analog stuff. They both work although they are both old
beat up and the switch contacts are dirty.  They are fine for home use when
you have time to press the switches again and again till they turn on, but
not for live use unless you want to switch them on and leave them looping
(as we are want to do anyway).  
	anyway, let me know if you have any offers.  Thanks guys.

I thought somebody might be interested in this as well...

I just picked up a MOOG sequencer/midi interface (woa cool!) but, it only
works with 
				The Commodore 64 (what?)
It also has 8 drum trigger outs and 4 midi outs. so it is really cool, plus
its extremely mint in the box, with all the great moog literature
(accessories catalog, warrenty card, list of dealers)  I really don't think
this thing was ever plugged in, as the software is still taped inside the
official MOOG instruction manual.  anyway, let me know if anybody wants
this thing. Trades?  BTW:you can get tons of commodore64 stuff on the net
so if you don't have one they are like 20$

luv

>So, since there have been very few posts to LD, what recordings can everyone
>recommend?

Currently in heavy rotation 'round here:

Chocolate Genius' "Black Music"  (feat. Torn)
Massive Attack's "Mezzanine"
Porcupine Tree's "Signify"
Genesis' "Archive 1967-75"  (A complete live 'Lamb Lies Down'!  whoo-hoo!)
Marylin Manson's "Mechanical Animals"

and just arrivied today:

Fripp's "Gates of Paradise"
Forever Sharp and Vivid
Eric Johnson's "Seven Worlds"


all this talk of recordings prompts me to ask this list:

anybody know where i can get my grubby little hands on the two Everyman
Band albums?  searching on the net has brought me nothing.   anybody got an
extra for sale/trade?

later,

For those of you that are interested, Symbolic Sound
showed some really fast hardware for Kyma at AES,
details are at: http://www.SymbolicSound.com/press-AES98.html

The short of it is:
new price: $3300
base system: 4 Motorola 56309 chips at 80Mhz.
(3 chips for DSP, one for housekeeping, each 
56309 is 2.5X faster than a 66Mhz 56002)
96MB sample ram (24MB per DSP, that's about 
3 minutes loop time at 44.1Khz)
4 channels analog/digital i/o standard 
4 more channels optional.
A/D, D/A converters 24-bit at up to 96Khz
Loads of sync input (SMPTE, LTC, Word Clock, etc.)
New expansion cards have 2 chips/48MB each
Up to 12 cards can be added ($595 each).

I'm pretty sure the 563XX series is what
Digidesign is using in their new ProTools Mix
DSP Farms.

Ah, I too must admit that I've not been to the store in some time... So
what's been playing on or through my stereo in the past week, besides my
stuff?

Neil Young - American Stars 'n Bars, On The Beach, Zuma
Iggy Pop - The Idiot (an excellent one IMHO)
Harmonia '76 - Tracks & Traces (Eno with Cluster)

and, to bring in Halloween season appropriately...

Pink Floyd - Ummagumma (primarily "Careful With That Axe, Eugene")

Stephen GoodmanÊ -Ê It's... The Loop Of The Week!

bill frisell - gone just like a train...a little whacky looping here and there
spanish fly - insert tongue here....david tronzo on slide gtr., tuba, trumpet,
drums....extremely whacky and fun music. reminds me of henry threadgill at
times.
eno - apollo...still and kind of creepy at times. great guitar textures by
daniel lanois, who strikes me at times as a rootsy frisell.
mike watt - contemplating the engine room - great cd. totally engaging. great
bass playing from watt and gtr from nels cline who throws in the odd loop now
and again.
geraldine fibbers - butch...wow, hell hath no fury like a smart angry female
singer. again nels cline plays everything perfectly and sneaks in the
clandestine noise loop here and there. any nels fans out there let me know. i
would love to own more of his stuff.

hmm...

my listening recently has included:

XTC - a bunch stuff, oranges, express, rag&bone

PJ Harvey - new CD "is this desire" - great disc, cloudy, murky (murkie?) -
and some cool loops

Zappa - Mystery Disc - the new collection of 60s weirdness, orchestral
music & oddities
Lotsa Zappa in general these days, learning/soaking up for some
shows...(sneaky plug!!)

Gongzilla - Thrive - Lotsa cool looping, i think Torn is on this one....
excellent!!

Elliott Sharp  -Tectonics - his new one, cool drum & bass grooves with his
crazy gtr

Mike Keneally's brilliant new "sluggo" (get it. get it. GET IT!!!)
throw in some Bartok, King's X, Marilyn Monroe (sic), Jeff Buckley's new
one...

peace, andre'

Including Medeski!! i forgot to vote for this one!! i've been spinning this
a lot - great great cd - and Henry - as always has crammed 78 friggin
minutes onto EACH DISC !!!! 

Another one i've been enjoying this week is LD member Frank Gerace &
Cheryl's CD - great anachronistic stuff!! - this is what we'd get if
someone arrived in 1565 with a roland vs880 and a vg8, and a earful of
crimson,bach and hendrix!! Cool patches, Frank. very orchestral, well
composed stuff with midieval (midi-evil??) vocals, sometimes rem of
diamanda galas or dead can dance.

Hi everybody,

Trying to decide between these two units, and I've never seen either one
in person:

PDS-8000 $150

RDS-8000 $125

The prices aren't that relevant, I'm wondering what all the features of
the Rack DS I might miss with the PedalDS. I like the convenience and
portability of pedals.

Also , how does sample quality compare between the two? I'm actually
interested in a lo-fi looping tool to feed scraps to my Boomerang and
JamMan. What happens on each when you record a 2 sec. piece and crank it
down to 8 sec, rate? Similar quality, or does is the PDS' architecture
more limiting in it's bandwidth.

Any other comments appreciated.

eric p

You guys will probably be deleting these with hair-trigger response
times by the time mine arrives, but what the hay, I've got time to spend
and an esthetic-sense ego to feed:

*Out Of Worship (Sub Rosa): gtr (and other stuff) player from Codeine
meets a drummer/ percussionist with an fx rig (just my style) - great
melding of styles - loops, drones, slides, Mutron, distorted bass drums
...

*Pluramon - Render Bandits (Mille Plateaux): simply great crunchy
sounding music - Krautrock/ hard disk session with structural depth

*Im Memoriam - Gilles Deleuze tribute (Mille Plateaux): a year or so
old, feat. Mouse on Mars, Trans Am, Alec Empire, Chris & Cosey, Oval,
Scanner, Mike Ink, Christian Vogel etc.

*Ikue Mori - Hex Kitchen (Tzadik):  not brilliant, but interesting
drum-machine-based samplage

*UI - Lifelike (Southern): subtle but effective post(age)-rock, feat.
two basses, electronics and a drummer with lots of other bits mixed in

*Sub Rosa Underwood Sampler - feat. Scanner, Farmers Manual (great drum
machine deconstruction!), Timothy Leary w. dj cheb i sabbah, David Shea,
dj wally (cool) - this CD is CHEAP, so look for it

*Dave Douglas - Sanctuary (Avant)- it taes a while to "get" this, but
there is a lot behind it, similar in scope to "Bitches Brew"

>Nels Cline :  Angelica


What's this?  I've been meaning to get his trio CD's after hearing some of
his stuff here and there, but I'm unfamiliar with this title.  Is it solo
stuff?  Care to give a description?

Hola Groovers-

So I am up late, 1 am , procrastinating on a poem and painting I have to 
get out, so I flip on the TV and lo and behold I see a concert/doc on 
Jimi Hendrix on Ovation. Running thru the empty spaces of my brain I 
realize that this is the gig that Torn, Mick Karn, Polytown, and some 
other interesting folk like Cassandra Wilson and Trilok Gurtu were at...

Moments were really surprising, although the performances were edited.
Really nice "Little Wing" with Cassandra singing, Torn on guitar and 
Karn on bass.

Check to see if your cable or satellite company caries Ovation because 
they are running it again at: 
Monday, October 05, 1998 - 4:00:00 PM
Thursday, October 08, 1998 - 5:00:00 PM
Oh and its called:
Voodoo Chile: The Music of Jimi Hendrix.

Ovation has a website at: http://www.ovationtv.com

selam,

Buck

I am a little ashamed to say that I haven' t bought anything new for a couple of years.  Whatever I bought then didn't change my enthusiasm to continue listening to the greats.  Although, I also confess to have been lazy to go the store and purchase the many many great records you all have suggested on this list.

I am thirsting greatly for calm, meditative music in the vein of Eno, Tangerine Dream and others, where I can play them repeatedly without actually being aware of them.  I'm sorry, but old Eno records are very obvious to me now.  Anyway, here is my list of perennials -- I cannot get tired of listening to these records:

* Genesis:  Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot, Selling England by the Pound, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, A Trick of the Tail, Wind & Wuthering, others
* Yes:  Fragile, Close to the Edge, Tales of Topographic Oceans, Relayer, some of Going for the One and others.
* Emerson Lake + Palmer:  Tarkus, Brain Salad Surgery, some of Trilogy
* Premiata Forneria Marconi:  Per un amico, Photos of Ghosts, others
* Mike Oldfield:  Tubular Bells 2
* Anthony Phillips:  most Private Parts & Pieces, both CD and vinyl
* King Crimson:  Epitaph
* Some compilation CDs my girlfriend has of Handel, others of Bach, Debussy, Satie, etc., can't get tired of those

And keep recycling these:
* Fred Frith:  Gravity
* Henry Cow:  Legend
* Michael Hedges:  Taproot
* Joan Manuel Serrat (from Spain):  '74, '73, '75, most of his records
* Allan Holdsworth:  Most of his records
* Steve Hackett:  Watcher of the Skies, most of his records
* Charley Garc’a (from Argentina):  Oro, and most of his records
* The Beatles:  All their records (and most bootlegs)
* Elton John:  Greatest Hits ('74)
* Uriah Heep:  Firefly

Me too!, thought I was the only one also :-) I've seen them live a couple of
times back in
1984. Strange bunch, they'd say absolutely nothing apart from "We're Dif Juz,
thankyou good night"
throughout the entire set.. just do a number, fiddle with FX setup for the next
one, play it, and
so on.... odd :-) Damned fine though.

Cheers,
     Robin.

Hi Kim
Thanks for your response the other day about my faulty EDP
Called mike ayers and he had me send it to an authorized repair place, Triple
S in NJ. The unit came back with the same problem. Those guys were completely
useless. They say they resoldered the Ac connection, but that seems to be
suspect
I took it to Vince Gutman in Woodstock and asked him to go through it (not a
warranty guy) but one of the best in the world. He builds stuff for God. This
is starting to cost a bundle, but I need the unit
He found all the AC related items to check out fine. He ran diagnostics on the
RAM and it too was fine.
He feels that it's a CPU/Clock related problem and is confident he can fix it,
but needs to have schematics.
Is that something you might have that could be faxed to him ?
My tour starts on Tuesday, and Vince can repair the unit if he has the
schematics on Monday AM.
I figured you might have them or know someone who did. Torn tells me you're
the man.
If it's at all possible could you fax them to Vince Gutman at 914-679-4232 or
to me at 914 679-4760. I'm sorry for the imposition. I hope you'll be able to
help.
I can get the unit to power up after about an hour of trying and it's
completely random, therefore quite unreliable. 
Starting to panic,
Kevin Bartlett
If you need to call I'm at 914-679-4728

P.S.Thanks for any and all attention you can give this.

Sounds interesting. There are MIDI apps to analyze some sound and form some
parameters that may influence an effect unit or sampler, but it should
happen simpler.
What is the reaction you imagine?

I played in the planetarium of Rio de Janeiro in '87. Gregory Brown
improvized together with Vania Dantas (kb), me (guit), and a 2290. He used
projectors with liquids and prisms and defocussed pictures and it came
really wild and strong.

But as far as I know, they do not allow concerts in there any more.

What does a good player do with an ostinato in an improv situation: 
- leaving out some notes while holding others
- variing a part here and there, maybe creating harmonic tension briefly
- coming back real strong rhythmically, maybe stressing a smaller rhythmic
value (moving from eight notes to sixteenths) or even creating double
time/feel
- repeating a small 16th note phrase for two or more bars
- going back to the original note for note but real articulate
- throw in a famous riff quote (ha ha)
- fading out w. held notes as above, repeat only one or two characteristic
notes in time or do a ritardando 
- etc.

But all that isn't (yet) work for machines and probably shouldn't be, exept
maybe absurd changes in tempo or pitch that a musician could not execute.

BTW, I just ordered an EDP directly from Bananas at Large in the US(they
had it in stock!). Hope it arrives soon & in working condition, solo gigs
are coming up in Nov.

best, Andreas

in my tray these days :

coldcut & dj food fight + dj krush - cold crush cuts 
remixes of ninja tunes back and front cataloge by coldcut and dj food and krush.
2 cds - lots of interesting stuff on here. for those of you who like beats, dj spooky et al I think you'll
find this of interest. Lots of great mixing, effects, stops,starts and
general all round uncohesive mayhem to puzzle over.
the coldcut cd is particularly good (  #18 has a Mahavishnu violin sample even )

penderecki - matrix 5
yeah ! scary scary. the scariest music ever written - penderecki's 'threnody for the victims of hiroshima'
Remember little Danny pedalling around the Overlook Hotel in Kubrick's Shining ? Why was it so scary ?
Cause 'Threnody' was playing somewhere. Never mind the old hag in the shower. That was nothing. But
'threnody' ? Run Danny ! Run !

Le Mystere Des Voix Bulgares.
The Sofia State Radio Womens Orchestra. No electricity supply available while the Turks kicked the
bejesus out of the Bulgars for centuries. Hard Times = Great Melodies for some bizzare reason.

charlie hunter and pound for pound - return of the canyman.
great for fruging 'round the kitchen whilst you prepare the vegetables. Drum solas. Vibes. Cover version
of 'Fly Like an Eagle' !

squarepusher - hard normal daddy
not sure about this one - the music sounds a bit too close to something Stanley Clarke might've written when
he was tired ( no disrespect to Stan - 'I wanna play for you' has to be one of the funniest tunes ever - especially
at 3am in a roomful of drunks ) 
The beats are fast, modern, and with it of course, but,..

thanks for all the other lists - some good suggestions. I like the ones where I haven't heard of any of the artists.
Makes me feel really boring, sitting here re-reading the liner notes to 'Bat out of Hell'

I haven't heard that name in a long time... What releases do they have?  I
had a roomate who was way into the whole  4ad scene back in the day, but my

Fave CD's of the moment....

1. New WILLIE NELSON - Totaro -- Oh my, this is a GOOD record.  And this is
a comment from a man who owns no country records.

2. New MOUSE ON MARS - ?? - Typography hits a creative high and an
informational low.  This is a stunning recording, grooves composed of
elements that hang together without repetitions.  luvely!

3. ROY HARPER -- BBC TAPES -- Possibly Roy is the English Willie Nelson; I
wonder if they'd ever do a duet?

4. FROM WITHIN -- one of those on the FAX label from Frankfurt -- what a
wonderful wonderful label this is...

Ya know, I'll often read interviews with working
musicians and composers who will state that they
don't listen to much music at all, since they are so
busy with their own work. It's refreshing to see
someone who's obviously quite the busy professional
listening to such a wide variety. Hell, I'm not
listening to that much new stuff, and I'm not nearly
as busy as dt :-)

My list for 10-5-98:

Gillian Welch - Revival
Gillian Welch - Hell Among the Yearlings
John Scofield - A Go Go
Bill Frisell - Gone Just Like a Train
Bill Frisell - Nashville
Bill Frisell and Fred Hersch - Songs We Know
Tarik & Julia Banzi Al-Andalus - Illumination
Martin Medeski and Wood - combustication
The Ascension Conspiracy - Mother's Blood
Henry Kaiser - Re-Marrying for Money
Steely Dan - Countdown to Ecstasy
Dan Faehnle - My Ideal
Speedy West & Jimmy Bryant - Stratosphere Boogie

Things I want: Vivid, Jon Durant, Joni Mitchell's
latest, Jim Hall's latest, etc. etc. etc.

im saving my pennys to buy some more black boxes in order to augment my
inability to play guitar so i can not afford new recordings.......
the last recordings i have listened to:
1. jeff collins "red"
2.JFK/LSD/UFO
3.jefferson airplane "after bathing at baxters"
4.the mothers "we are only in it for the money" (so this is where most of my
ideas came from?)
5.incredable string band "i looked up"
6.tim buckley "blue afternoon"
7.all and anything you folks post on real audio
seems the only time i listen to music is when im in my truck, when im at home
im too busy making my own noise. i figure if i have time to listen, i have
time to play, otherwise im either sleeping or working. yipes, what a life!
but i must admit, it is scary how much music both old and new is out there
that i have never heard of,all the while thinking that i am quasi-hip to whats
happening in the music world. this listing of recordings has been a real eye
opener.....thanks .......michael

error, uh:

Buffalo Daughter's newest release is called "New Rock" not "Rock Music".
Sorry to confuse anyone out there (it's really great, too, btw...)

ciao,

Lance G.

P. S.:  Jesse  - Nels Cline's "Angelica"; circa 1988;
Nels - guitars
Tim Berne - alto sax
Stacy Rowles - trumpet, fluegelhorn
Eric Von Essen - bass, chromatic harmonica
Alex Cline - drums, percussion

fairly straight-ahead, with a bit of meadering on certain tracks; not atonal,
but polytonal (as opposed to highly chromatic)?

I know there's a slim chance of this but ...
I'm in 'Down Under' and I have an American mate going back home to
Calif. to see a Residents gig, so i thought - good time to pick up a
new/used Echoplex.
If he's in the "Bay area" can anyone suggest where to look...or am i
chasing the Holy Grail ?
Thanks
Rob

go to Banana's at Large in San Rafael (across the Golden Gate bridge from
SF, nice drive anyway.) Someone else just said they have them in stock. If
not, other places have them. Banana's address:

1504 Fourth St.
San Rafael, CA  94901
USA
415-457-7600
http://www.bananas.com

They'll even ship international, so you could just call them and have it
sent. Lot's of places seem to do that now.

                        FRAGMENTS OF THE MASS DREAM
                     Diverse Directions in Guitar Music
                        Friday, October 9th 1998 9pm
        Cafe Tattoo - 4825 Belair Road - Baltimore MD (410)325-7427

One instrument, three different styles of music. On Friday October 9th
Cafe Tattoo (The Baltimore City Paper's pick for the Best Jazz Club for
1998) will be hosting an exciting and diverse evening of guitar music.
FingerPaint, The Dark Aether Project, and Tony Geballe converge from
diverse musical backgrounds to share their love of sonic exploration. 
Fragments of musical vision presented as one whole evening of enticing
music. 
----- 
FingerPaint is guitarists/synthesists Steev Geest and Patrick Smith.
Exploring the edges of electronic music and spontaneous composition, their
improvisatory soundscapes have been described as "sinister and alien" by
the Philadelphia City Paper.  

See http://www.fingerpaint.net/ for more information about FingerPaint.  
----- 
The Dark Aether Project features Adam Levin (Warr 8 String Touch Guitar/
Loops), Yaman Aksu (Fretted and Fretless Guitars/Guitar Synth), and
Brian Griffin (Drums).  Progression magazine says "...jazz-inflected,
often minimalistic...foreboding soundscape[s]...  classy...offers mature
musicianship without pretentiousness."  Expose says "...intense and
blistering lead work...amazing loops and shimmering textures that are at
once haunting and dreamlike...worthy of attention." 

The Dark Aether Project will be joined by special guest vocalist Ray
Weston (Echolyn/Still/Always Almost) 

See http://www.darkaether.net/ for more info on The Dark Aether Project
-----
Tony Geballe has been a member of the Turkish music trio Dostlar and the
New York Indonesian Consulate Gamelan. As a member of Robert Fripp and the
League of Crafty Guitarists, Tony has made several recordings and toured
Israel, Europe and the US, as well as appearing on local and national
radio and television shows. 

The 12-string guitar is primarily known as a folk instrument, but Tony
combines elements of classical and jazz techniques, harmony and form with
the shimmering and resonant sound of the instrument, to create a unique,
compelling and satisfying music. Tony 's CD of solo 12-string guitar
music, "Native of the Rain," has been released by Discipline Global Mobile
records.

"Deftly bridges the chasm between pop accessibility and meticulously
crafted musicianship. Geballe's compositions, awash in dazzling, evocative
sonic cascades, demonstrate just how far one exemplary musician can push
the musical envelope armed with only one 12-string acoustic guitar."

I was just looking through the website of a local Florida music magazine- I
found this:

OBERHELM, Winter Park, (407) 677-4679
Digital-pro echoplex w/controller & manual expanded $485. 

This is NOT me, so please don't respond directly to me.
The website is www.floridajam.com
Look under 'Classifieds---->Equip for sale.
Looks like a good deal.

Winter Park is in central Florida, USA- near Orlando.

Lurv the Main... "Motion Pool" has some very nice looping on it... all guitar
and no drums (may be on the repetitive side for some) their later stuff is
more free-form ambient... "Firmament III" is an amazing trip through some
totally alienating sonic territory...

Collins, have any idea what they're doing now?

I haven't been doing too much in the way of listening recently, since I
have been designing and constructing a surround sound\music monitor
system for my PC at home.

I also picked up a Zoom 2100 the other day, and it is quite a good
little gadget.
I will write a review in a week or so for use on the loopers page.

As far as listening goes, I have a biased selection.
I just received 5 CD's I had ordered from The Artist Shop.

Since DT just posted I guess the coast is clear.

They are:
David Torn - Tripping over God
David Torn - What means Solid Traveller?
Torn\Karn\Bozzio - Polytown
Mick Karn - The Tooth Mother
Mick Karn - Bestial Cluster

I have honestly been listening to them non stop at work for about a
month now.

I have also listened to some :

Pop will eat itself - dos dedos mis amigo
Mindfunk - Dropped

I must be in an energetic music mood, because most of that stuff is very
lively.

Hi loopists,
Yesterday I tried out the new Zoom 2100 multi effects unit.
It's small, only about 12" x 8". This means the footswitches are 
a bit close together. You can record 3 x 5sec, "jam" loops all of which
are available simultaneously. When you've made a loop though it doesn't
latch so you need to keep your foot, (or a brick) on the pedal. This is
quite handy for retriggerring a sequence. I recorded a sequence in 3
parts and fired each in turn. This lends itself to the possibility of
varying the order of the sequences but would need some nifty footwork.
There is a 6 sec delay available and a 10sec one. No 10 sec with the
"jam function". In addition there is a 16 sec loop, (the 32 sec loop
really fries, it sounds like 8 bits) it is possible to vary the tempo
without varying the pitch if you so choose. I couldn't try this though
since you have to go in via an aux mini jack to take advantage of the
pitch shifting facility - silly. The manual does warn of excessive
wobble in this mode, (my words not theirs). The unit is generally a bit
lo-fi which is why I'm putting my pennies towards an Echoplex rather
than buying this unit as a stopgap. There is a continuous frying/vinyl
surface noise effect behind everything. I'm sure some would welcome this
but it isn't for me. Still for 150 quid is a great unit for
experimentation and generally larking about with.
Gareth

There is another cheapo looper in Musicions Friend that I just spotted, its
the Tone Works AX1-G. For your 149.99 you get the usual bazillion fx ( 7 at
once!) plus a sample and play loop function for live perfomance which allows
you to layer new parts onto repeating patterns. ( in their words ) .It seems
that loopers are becoming popular as practice tools and as this one says,
live playing. Great turn of events for looping in general. All the kids
coming up will be exposed early to the concept. Loopers Delight the next
generation is on its way.

This has a looper in it.
Special FX -15    Infinite Repeat
2 & a bit seconds, mono
not really infinite, fades & dulls eventually (good for several minutes)
midi syncs to the JamMan ,glitch free ,(a fraction of the jamtapped time).
Can either add new material or play over the top,  but the manual doesn't
tell you how.

Apart from this there's some excellent fx+reverbs of very high quality,
  but not much in the way of extreme sounds.

While we're waiting for a good player to answer I think I'll throw in my own
$.02...

>- variing a part here and there, maybe creating harmonic tension briefly

Well, I'd take out the "maybe" and the "briefly".

This suggestion is, to me, what makes ostinatos a desirable thing at all.
That is, the opportunity to apply varying degrees of harmonic tensions against
a static background.  I wish more 'electronica' (for lack of a better term)
took advantage of this, but it seems like most that I've checked out has been
all about rhythm and texture primarily (if not exclusivley).  Last week I saw
Mark Isham's new 'electronica' band (from what I could tell, I counted three
Jam Men, one Obie and one EH 16-sec delay and at least as many other
'standard' delays) and they did a few things that had some harmonic meat to
them, and certainly Mark's playing exhibited a good amount harmonic
imagination in improvising over ostinatos so I found that pretty enjoyable,
but I think he's bringing more to the table in terms of overall musicianship
than the rank and file electronica guys I hear.  They recorded these shows, I
hope they're considering releasing them, they were quite good.

In the "Recording" thread there were recent posts listing Frisell's "Songs, We
Know" and Emmylou Harris' "Spyboy" which I couldn't list yet but since I just
got them this morning I would easily add them to my list, these are both
great.  Jim Hall's newest is a pretty standard good performance from Jim but
is as problematic to me as his other "+ special guests" format records he's
done for Tel Arc the last few years on the whole.  Nothing quite as inspiring
happens as the show I saw last week here in LA - Jim playing duo with Dave
Holland - which proved to me he's still one of the most open-minded and
fearless improvisors around given the right setting.

actually, if you run the output from your jamman
into your vortex, you can mangle the looped material
to your heart's content. This is great fun, and I recommend
that you *do* try this at home :-)

I found the sound quality to be impressive through headphones, and as
usual I think diligent use of gain\distortion is the key to reducing
noise in these units.

Possibly the foot pedals are close together so you can trigger three
loops with a single foot?
I just slide my foot over and press another pedal while maintaining
pressure on the other pedal\s. It works OK, however the tolerance for
losing playback on a pedal is low when attempting that trick.

I was not going to buy any "small" loopers, because i thought the EDP
would be a much better tool.
However, this ZOOM cost me $300 Australian, has a few decent features,
but an Echoplex would cost me $3000 to get shipped over.
Hardly an option at the moment.

Chalk up one thing living in the US has going for it - much lower
prices\higher wages.
I'm sorry, but I'd like to support the EDP, Kim, but it's not gonna
happen soon.

I may as well stop flapping and go and make some noise with my new toy
then, hadn't I ?

My fully maxed out loop rig has seperate effects for the non looped geetar
and the loop rig.  As I have changed my straight guitar pedal board again
(and I do mean board I got one of those SKB powered velcro boards- worth
every penny) I have to figure out how to split the guitar signal easily
again (effects loop on board?) but here's a vague approximation of how the
rig went/ with gear updates:


guitar split into:

mxr dynacomp-  green mxr delay-  small stone-  fulltone tremelo- AnalogMan
modified ts-9 reissue w/brown sound (the bomb, yo)- mutant big muff
(affectionately called the porkchop)-  modified Bedrock AC-30 clone

and-

volume pedal- rat pedal- JamMan- Old ass Ibanez analog multi-effects uunit
(model excapes me)- QuadroVerb1 (accept no substitute)-SansAmp PS-1-  PA
(or if there is another guitar amp, skip the sans amp

this way, I can layer distorted and undistorted guitar on the loop, and
then distort the whole damned thing for the rousing raveup.

 Yes, but with the vortex alone you can do stuff that actually reorders the
material in the loop,  a bit like making a tape loop , cutting it up, and
resplicing it in a different order. Sorry the original post was so vague.

 actually, if you run the output from your jamman
 into your vortex, you can mangle the looped material
 to your heart's content. This is great fun, and I recommend
 that you *do* try this at home :-)

 Yes, but with the vortex alone you can do stuff that actually reorders the
material in the loop,  a bit like making a tape loop , cutting it up, and
resplicing it in a different order. Sorry the original post was so vague.

Kim recently put up a page with an archived discussion of the D12.  The
author didn't think much of it, because in sampling mode you can't overdub
or even record the second sample while playing the first.  I agree, sampler
mode isn't really quite what I want.

But yes, in delay mode, you've got 12 seconds of delay time with a feedback
control, and tap tempo.  The delay times can be set to a resolution of 10
milliseconds when it's less than 10 seconds -- 100 milliseconds at 10
seconds+.  The lack of an input level indicator is annoying but trial and
error sufficed.  You can apply modulation to the delay too, and that's
kinda fun.

Re the current talk about the Zoom 2100: if I am not mistaken, it appears
that this unit will only trap sample segments, i.e., it won't allow
continuous input to layer sounds over time.  I'm not sure that in the
context of Looper's Delight this is looping at all.  At any rate, it's a
very important distinction to make.  I hope anyone who has actually used
the unit will correct me if I am wrong about the 2100.

Also, I don't think I've seen mention of the DOD Dimension 12 on the list,
and a search of the archives didn't bring it up.  From a review I saw, it
seems that in "delay" mode the Dimension 12 will give 12 seconds of true
layered looping.  The only apparent bummer is no sync input, but being able
to dial in exact delay times would deal with that pretty well--enough so
for my needs at present, anyway.  I'm looking to add some minor looping
capability to my setup and haven't spotted a Digitech 7.6 or 8000 for some
time, so the Dimension 12 (at about $240 street) looks pretty good.  Anyone
tried one?

I live in Hong Kong and I use SP-808 and a Roland XP50 to make my music.
Unfortunately, I can't send you my email address right now coz I use
hotmail.com and it's wait too slow to access it.

here is my ICQ#5823416. I have made a few songs lately with loops ....I
hope to include it in your up coming Loopers' CD should there be any new
ones...

please feel free to contact me....

To all those who are wanting to record sounds that the usual mics won't be
able to pick up, i have been thinking about contact microphones since i
discovered John Cage. They are an amazing way to get sounds never heard
before out of anything...even rocks. If you too are interested in making
yourself a couple of contact mics, you can visit...
http://www.harmonycentral.com/Guitar/piezo-pickups.txt
There are a ton of posts on this subject that can help you out tremendously.

Hope this can help a few of you fellow loopers.
Sincerely,

Dear all,

My echoplex just died the great and tragic death, and I was wondering what was
still available and at what price ranges.  Preferably, I am looking for
something that has a foot controller and can handle around 5 to 10 seconds of
sampling prior to looping it.

Thanks again.

Sincerely,

Lee

What most studios do is use a digital I/O card to send the audio signal in
and out of the PC. This way you can use an external audio converter as
opposed to a sound card. This is something like a setup for the Event Layla.

now we all know what we are listening to......what are we reading? sure, i
said " time to listen, is time to play" but on some level i must read every
day. a book is easier to take to bed than a guitar or synth or computer or
drums or significant other or fill in the blanks......outside of  music mags
and equipment reviews and of course loopers delight, the best thing ive read
in a long time is a wonderful book "Confederacy of Dunces" by john kennedy
toole......the reason i ask this, i dont think that there are that many
loopers on our little globe, in fact ill bet there are more shoe fetishes out
there than us......are there any common denominators that lead us to this form
of expression (looping)......perhaps this is an unanswerable question or
perhaps i should just keep quiet......just wondering......michael

I found that, after all my work on cabling and every frigging thing else, I
now could hear RF interference from... you guessed it, my monitor, a
3-year-old Sampo AlphaScan II, which might have developed its "voice" in the
past year or so.  Arrgh!  I separated the monitor by several feet from the
rest of my sound processing equipment, AND the PC.  End of noticeable
interference.  :)

i'm in the middle of 3 fiction things right now. i like to split up my
reading when i can:

illusions by richard bach - flying with god instead of seagulls this
time,

the collected short stories of philip k. dick, volumes 1-5 - they're
pretty much the
    same story over & over again, but i've liked this story since i was
7 years old when
    i read eye in the sky,

guns of the south by harry turtledove - a very ridiculous " what if
neo-nazi south
    africans from 2013 had a time machine, went back to civil war
america, & gave
    robert e. lee an endless supply of ak-47's w/ammo" plot line, but
entertaining
    nonetheless,

and for no fun at all, i'm spending several hours a day leafing through
the manual to
    m.o.t.u.'s audiodesk, a poorly indexed piece if'n there ever was
one...

I thought I'd abuse myself and check out the TC Electronics site.  When I
was checking out the info on the TC-2290, it sounded like it had been
updated from the older model. 

Does anyone have any info on these, such as price, stereo, how they compare
to an Echoplex?

Thanks,
JT

The 2100 has a sound on sound delay mode, with at least six seconds of
delay.

I contend your statement about sample triggering not being looping.

You get 3 samples on the zoom 2100.
You can make them loop if you try.
You can mix them, trigger them, play them ryhtmically, and overaly them.
You can also replace them while playing others.

It definitely loops.

I am reading a bowie biography at the moment.
Generally I read everything, but I like SF of Clarke and Asimov, and I
like books on technical things, or autobiographies of zany people like
Ghandi.
I'm not much into serious or obscure type lit , y'know things that like
Nietchze or Burroughs or whatever influential stuff people often qoute. 
I just trawl a bit and practice expanding knowledge from a point source.
i don't read music books much, except for musician bio's and articles.
I am a bit more active in my pursuit of visual stimulation.
I like to watch animation and films.
I am most active in pursuing my musical stumulation, though. Probably
70\20\10 (Music\Viz\Read)

currently reading some old dude named Rene Descartes from the 1600's.

"I think therefore I Loop!"
"I loop therefore I covet gear!"
"I covet gear therefore I think!"

I highly recommend Rene for any looper, as he has his own rather profound
approach to looping. Descartes proved himself to be a very bright guy early
on, even inventing some fundamental mathematical concepts we all were
tortured with as youngsters. And then, convinced of his own mediocrity, he
devoted 9 years of his life to eliminating all of his opinions. Descartes
developed an exemplary approach to thought, whereby he would: never accept
anything to be true which he did not absolutely know to be true; divide
difficult problems into as many simple parts as possible, so that they can
more easily be solved; conduct his thinking in order from the simplest and
easiest to prove through to the more complex; and last, to make his studies
so complete and general as to not omit anything.

Then, after this remarkable effort, Rene employs an amazing bit of circular
logic to prove the existence of God in just three rather convoluted
sentences. Impressive! I heartily encourage you all to create music in that
fashion. In fact, reminds me of many posts here on Looper's Delight.

Sadly, although Rene is considered the Father of Modern Philosophy, he did
not live long enough to invent his own looper or compose any influential
loop music, as he certainly would have. The queen of Sweden hired him to be
her tutor, and demanded that he begin instruction at 5am in cold Sweden. He
died within months. I'm sure the same would happen to me....

I wouldn't say that it's Not Looping, just that it's lacking a feature that
many people find very critical.

I think that features like this are important things to consider in looking
at many of these new devices. Many of them have user interfaces that are
not very friendly for live performance and real-time use, and many of them
do little more than "capture audio, repeat it." Jamman, Boomerang, and
Echoplex have been out for years now and offer many more loop functions
than this basic idea, and are much easier to use. I think we oughta expect
more out of anything coming out now.

one bit of info....when I talked to a tc engineer at last year's LA NAMM
show, he said the memory used for upgrading it had been discontinued, so
you can't make it do long delays anymore.

I just checked exchange rates, which are:
Rate: Australian Dollar per 1 United States Dollar : 1.618647

So if an echoplex costs US$650, it would be AUS$1052, right? Is shipping
really going to cost you AUS$1948 ($1203)?  Somehow that seems a wee little
bit exaggerated. :-)  Or is there some sort of exhorbitant down-under tax?
Mel Gibson moved to LA and now you have to make up the difference from his
lost income taxes?

anybody ever use that EH drum trigger before?

What it is essentially is a contact mic inside a Big Muff sheet metal box with a
cork pad.  Anyway, I pulled the mic out of there a while ago and used it to
record all kinds of goofy, goofy stuff.

Lo-fi redefined.

Not to mention the acoustic noise from the fan inside. The old 486DX2 I
used to run Session8 on sounded like a chainsaw.  It was only really
noticable when recording vocals, but I used a delightful (!) software
gate that chopped all that stuff out.

Acoustic guitars would be a bit of a hassle, I think.

I might not be up-to-date on this but to my knowladge there hasn't been an
update for the 2290 in years. t.c. is still a rather small company
(although rapidly growing) and I guess they need all their R&D manpower to
develop new products.So as far as looping goes a lot is missing here like
reverse play, serveral loops etc.; stereo can be achieved using two units. 


Anyway it's quite amazing that an FX-unit introduced in the mid-eighties
(!) is still available at all and that has to do with the simply incredible
sonic quality of this box.
For example, when my preamp broke down in mid-gig I rewired the rig & made
do in much haste with a sansamp pedal into the 2290 into pwr amp/speakers.
Was amazed about a solid clean sound and even a nice, smooth overdrive for
my guitar. But afterwards I found that the setting of the sansamp was dead
clean and the quite nice & musical breakup in the sound was coming out of
the 2290's input stage!

For a while I've been working on the design
for a performance-oriented MIDI looper, since
there are a lot of interesting possibilities that
can't be done with audio (e.g. successive loop
iterations are played through different patches).

One neat idea I had would be to arrange the delay to go
'backwards', with successive echoes louder, until
they reached a maximum volume and disappeared.
This would allow one to do the traditional
"add-new-material as old material is fading out"
sort of looping, but with a radically different feel.
Just to be different.

Now, you could do this with digital audio and a very long
delay with a lot of multi-taps, but that doesn't sound
very easy to arrange.

So, then I was thinking, though, if you just recorded a
"normal" evolving lopo forwards and played it backwards, it
would have a similar effect, except the notes themselves
would be backwards.

This then led me to the crucial clever idea of doing the
same thing that is done for backwards echo in the studio:
record the material forwards, play the tape backwards while adding
echo, and then play the whole thing forwards.

This has problems since you don't know how it's going to come
out in the end, and performed-layered-looping kind of requires
this, so I hacked around it as follows: setup up the looper
however you want it.  Record your material, played through the
looper, but only record the pre-looped signal.  When done, flip
the tape, run the loops on the recorded mateirla backwards, *without
changing any looper settings*.  This roughly guarantees that the
matieral will sync up backwards the same as it did forwards.
(Note, though, that you can't really do anything clever, like
multiplying).

So, a few months ago, I played around with it.  It was kind of
cool, but I wasn't that inspired at the time, so I put the idea
away for a rainy day as 'something cool to play with later'.

The other day I was listening to Fripp & Eno's "Evening Star".

Seems it's *not* a very original idea after all.

The Toneworks AX1G   http://www.korg.com/ax1gb.htm has an expression pedal
that can control some looper functions and it runs on baterries; 14 hrs on 4
AA bats.And it aparently does reverse playback, hifi,lofi, layering etc. It
doesn't say how much memory there is though, anybody check this one yet?

yes a wonderful book,,,,, unfortunately the author tried unsuccesfully to
get this book published,,,to no avail,,,fell deeper into depression,,and
commited suicide. After his death, his mother took the book to Walker Percy
(the moviegoer, etc.) and he helped get it published...it went on to win a
pulitzer. 

one man's trash is another man's treasure

most recent fiction read was "One Hundred Years of Solitude" by Gabriel
Garcia Marquez...ive read it about 3 times over the years,,,wanted to read
it again...i dont do much fiction

currently reading " Vimana in Ancient India" by Dileep K. Kanjilal,
Ph.D..........sometime truth is starnger than fiction anyway

Music and The Spiritual Dimension- RJ Stewart- rereading- lots of
interesting         takes on the use and misuse of music, for the pro and
non-pro 
Gallilee-Clive Barker -just finished, another great book, maybe not as great as
        Imajica or Weaveworld, but still, right up there
The Celtic World edited by Miranda Green- research for a book I'm cowriting
Tales of The Celtic Otherworld-John Matthews- great stories and artwork-
very         inspiring pics to 'loop the mood' contained in them.
All reading, except the Clive Barker, is done in bits and pieces as time
permits.  With Clive's books, I make it a point to block out hours at a stretch.

Hi folks,

I am thinking about buying an Echoplex, but it appears that not all dealers
carry them, and finding one in Canada seems to be even more difficult than
it is in the US. I just received the following response from a major
Canadian music dealer:

>>>>
The Oberheim Echoplex does exist.  I have sold about seven of the units
this year.  The reason I say they exist is that they took over a year to
come in from Oberheim initially, and delivery continues to be slow and
unpredictable.  Nevertheless, I have had good luck in getting them as our
store has a decent relationship  with the Oberheim people; I'm pretty sure
I can get more.  The unit last sold for $1,050.00 CDN plus tax; the
footswitch sells for $175 CDN plus tax.  
If you can handle this I can tell you that this is the best unit of its
kind, and I would be happy to get you one.  All I ask for is patience, and
a 10% deposit. 
<<<<

So far, that is the ONLY positive response I received :-(  One US dealer --
Synthony, I believe -- said that they didn't handle Echoplexes at all, and
I have received no reply from the few other US and Canadian suppliers that
I have corresponded with.

Surely, there is a way to get an Echoplex in this part of the world without
waiting for a year. The price above is equivalent to about US$660. Is this
reasonable? I prefer to buy in Canada because of the customs/currency
hassles. Can anyone give me an email address and/or telephone number of a
Canadian dealer who has one of these in stock at a decent price? 

Thanks in advance,

Howard

Not directly, but, like many animals, they can sense the fear and unease of
their owners and may get nervious or skittish mirroring the anxiety of
their keepers.

I dunno, "Mother" struck me as pretty unbearable. Worse than the most
overblown prog-rock. THe 2nd disc is pretty terrific though.

Form & Function is out, at least in the states, and it's really good. I
like it quite a bit more than Modus, F&F seems to be focussed more on pure
drum textures. Listening to Photek is, for me at least, like eavesdropping
on the internal conversations of an obsessive/compulsive.

Descartes got it all wrong:

>"I loop therefore I covet gear!"
>"I covet gear therefore I think!"

...yeah, he may have said this but did he PRACTISE what he PREACHED?  NO!!
If he was a well known Echoplex endorser, who raved about his Klein, then
maybe....

Was God in the "Loop" bit or "Covet Gear" bits?

No, I reckon you should go back to Pythagoras, who composed the Looping of
the Spheres by creating tones using whole SOLAR SYSTEMS!  Or was that
Kepler?

I was saddened to hear of your bereavement. Tell me how did it happen?
Was it a protracted illness or did the end come suddenly? 
Are you donating the organs to science?
Condolences :(

Yes, $660 usd seems good.  I am seeing the EDP at several USA mail

The year 2K bug, will only affect these machines if and only if they are
database driven!  So, no, none of these machines should be affected by the
problem of a roll-over in date, unless it is hooked up to your PC, in which
case it is a definite possibility that you'll be in for a bit of a shock one
day!

Dear all,

	Sorry, that this is not quite about delays/sampling and such, but one site
for hardware to check out is http://www.paris.ensoniq.com
This has been one of the quietest pieces of computer audio recording equipment
I have come across.
	As for the rest of the PC, the biggest thing is to get a case/power supply
that is A/V compliant (in otherwords, actually designed for being used in a
studio environment).  I concur with another post which states that the best
way to handle the audio signal is to keep it digital going into the PC and
leaving.  http://www.wmcmusic.com has had the stock and answers for me for a
while, now.  
	If you're desperate for going through a soundcard, the Yamaha pro series has
worked really well for me, and the DAC and ADC are fairly quiet.  I just had
to get used to sending a fairly hot signal into the PC, in question.  
	Other issues that shall come up are money, type of hardware used, and
Operating System.  Personally, I've been really happy with a Linux/NT4.0 box
that was not that pricey to create.  The video card, audio I/O card, sound
card and the hard drives were the most expensive items in the box.  The rest
were picked up a piece or two at a time through different computer shows, and
through the Internet.  http://www.marketpro.com   and
http://www.pricewatch.com

	Anywho, hopes this helps out!

		Lee-ohki.

Dear all,

	My poor echoplex decided that the time to have its primary recording head and
the tape to become one would be most prime if would do so during a practice
run...  The carcass was just about removed from the room and taken into the
new hands of some cannibal who plans on taking out the rather pristine
breadboards and the rest of the unit, so that his others might live.

	Thank you for your concern and sorry, the gent was in the room when she
stuttered and finally started to spill her life's stream of information all
over the floor, besides coughing up a capstan for good measure.  

	So, to make life a little easier, I am thinking about going digital in an
attempt of avoiding such mishaps in the future.  Something about a decline in
possible sound quality but less moving parts!

	This is a great forum.

		Lee-ohki.

Firstly there are two channels to go through to get an EDP to Australia.
Go through the single Gibson distributor, and pay $3000, no chance of
getting a good price on a one off.
Or try and ship one over myself.

The best price I have been able to get so far is from Bananas at large,
which is $755 for the EDP, pedal board and full RAM.

Add an extra $200 US for insured shipping.

The australian dollar when I checked last recently was at $0.55 US, so
that made 1:1.82 

That makes the base price $1374, and shipping $364.

For Australian duties and tax the calculation goes:

Purchase price "lifted an extra %20 for tax and duty calculation" (It's
a legislation)
So that makes the amount tax is calculated on is 1374*1.2 = 1649.

Tax is %25.4, and duty is another %5 or %10.
So depending on how they calculate it, the price could be $620 extra.
That makes $1994, plus $364 shipping.
Which makes a grand total for this method $2358.

Somewhat cheaper than the "Proper channels" method, however, I would
invalidate any warranty or support claims by not going through the
Australian distributor.

It is unlikely that I could ever send the EDP back to the US to get it
repaired if something odd happened to it, so the risk is quite a bit
higher than a normal purchase.

If the exchange get's more favourable, I will get an EDP, but not at
$2400.

As for Mel Gibson

I think there's a pretty decent 40-45 minute album hidden somewhere
within the 120 + minutes of SaturnzReturn.  The first disc is long for
the sake of being long; the second one has a few really nice bits (the
first three tunes, for my money), and a few other bits that might be
bearable if brought down to a managable length.  Too much of that album
smacks of length for its own sake -- raw repetition without any good
musical reason for it.

I heard some of the older bits on F+F and liked it, but the newer stuff,
like just about all the jungle I've heard come out of Britain over the
last year or so, is just horrendously discouraging to me.  It seems like
there's some sort of contest in Britain as to who can come up with the
stiffest, simplest, most un-funky beats.  The complexity and
unpredictable nature of the rhythms that made it such an unusual style a
few year ago seems to have been more or less discarded in favor of
dishing out a stiff drum-machine emulation of an eight-note rock beat
(or, at best, "Funky Drummer" played at 160 BPM, a la Roni Size).

Anybody have any reasons why this is the case?  Or compelling arguments
to the contrary?  About the only new (post-'96) jungle I've heard that
consistently excites me as much as the older stuff is LA-based DJ Hive
and some bits on the new DJ Spooky album; I wonder if the US is due to
start picking up the slack in the near future...

Just curious, but...

Of all the current listening, I saw no mention of Lanois' Sling Blade
soundtrack. I haven't heard it in a while, hence it wasn't on my list, but
I did happen to listen to it yesterday, and am still amazed by some of his
tasteful loops, especially with the Kay tremolo. And "The Maker" is just as
powerful a tune as the first time I heard it (yikes, 1989!). He gigged at a
record store here in Santa Monica a while back (w/ E.Harris), and I was
able to check out his gear; a (very) nice collection of vintage Fenders,
AC30, several Kay thingies, 'Rang, and a whole lot of (not so)
slight-of-hand with patchcords between tunes...

fwiw

I'm sorry to report that we've discovered a curious Y2K bug in our Echoplex
code. Seems that pressing Multiply, Insert, and Undo simultaneously with
SamplerStyle=ATT, exactly at the stroke of midnight for Y2K causes the
available loop memory to triple. No kidding! We don't understand this bug
at all, and are working desperately to fix it in time. I suggest that,
rather than take a chance, you should turn your echoplex off during this
period, drink heavily, and try to kiss as many people as possible while the
fireworks are going off. That should keep your echoplex safe. That's what
I'm going to do....

Does anyone know of a sequencer program that works like the old
Electro-Harmonix sequencer--8 sliders (one for each note in the sequence)
that produce an endless loop?

I want to introduce my kids to looping.

Thanks,

That dreadful two-step rhythm. yes, it's been really, really boring. Thing
is, I hear people complain about how boring it is all the time, yet it
keeps hanging in there. dnb styles usually change pretty rapidly, hopefully
this variant will go away soon.

y'know, I've heard a lot of television commercials with really cool backing
music in the past couple of years. That's where I've heard the best drum n'
bass lately. MTV promos between videos are usually pretty hip too. Usually
the best stuff on MTV...  Anybody know how that happens? Do the people
making these ads just leave the music for the last minute and take whatever
gets handed to them? Was the jingle industry quitely disappeared and
replace by avant-garde composers? In any case, seems like a fine place for
some wild loops.

Hey-

I think you're working off some old news here. For a period about 1-2 years
ago, Oberheim was having all sorts of production trouble, and was way
behind. Waiting lists for the echoplex were six months long or worse. Over
the past year though, they fixed their problems and got echoplex production
ramped up to meet all the demand. These days, Oberheim is busting them out
and most OB dealers have them in stock. I guess if you can't find one at
the usual places noted (bananas at large, musicians friend, mars music, 8th
street music, all do mail order...), then contact OB to help you fnd a
dealer with units available. The OB customer service person is:  Mike Ayers
<cayers@gibson.com>.

good luck,

kim

i'm curious as to why you've focussed upon introducing yer kids to looping via
a 'sequencer', as opposed to having them looping actual audio (via, ya know:
EDP, jamman, boomerang, etc.....) ?
looping airborne sounds can be such a vivid, visceral experience, i think:
what with a microphone, harmonica, hand-drum, turntable, bass, guitar and/or
*whatever* as kiddly-controlled input.
anyway,
in my experience:
botha my boys cut their loop-teeth on a PCM42/digitech thingie/jamman, etc.;
many years later, botha them continue to loop, as a source for their own
enjoyment & creativity.
best,

My kids like computer games, and I thought a software sequencer that
emulates an old analog sequencer would be easy for them to operate.  Also,
it's simpler for them to turn on my computer than my looping rig.  And the
computer is much quieter than my amp.

ummm, uhhh, errr:
actually, i don't think i *recommended* this recording (nor *any*thing else on

i only informed that i've been listening to it.
so:
do i think its worth a listen? yes.

check out VAZ.  it's a software based synthesizer for PC with a 16 step 
slider-based sequencer.  i'm not sure if there's a mac version.  i 
believe there's a demo version out somewhere on the web.  i'll see if i 
can find an url.

btw, the synth sounds on VAZ are great, very rich.

>I want to introduce my kids to looping.

way to go.  i'm planning a similar experiment.  i plan to sit my 
(musically-handicapped) girlfriend in front of my computer with sonic 
foundry's ACID and a directory full of loops.  to me, the program is 
very intuitive.  i want to see what sounds come out with a complete 
novice.

But Kim, what is the title and author of the books you're reading on him?

| 
| currently reading some old dude named Rene Descartes from the 1600's.
| 
| "I think therefore I Loop!"
| "I loop therefore I covet gear!"
| "I covet gear therefore I think!"
| 
| I highly recommend Rene for any looper, as he has his own rather profound
| approach to looping. Descartes proved himself to be a very bright 
| guy early
| on, even inventing some fundamental mathematical concepts we all were
| tortured with as youngsters. And then, convinced of his own mediocrity, he
| devoted 9 years of his life to eliminating all of his opinions. Descartes
| developed an exemplary approach to thought, whereby he would: never accept
| anything to be true which he did not absolutely know to be true; divide
| difficult problems into as many simple parts as possible, so that they can
| more easily be solved; conduct his thinking in order from the simplest and
| easiest to prove through to the more complex; and last, to make 
| his studies
| so complete and general as to not omit anything.
| 
| Then, after this remarkable effort, Rene employs an amazing bit 
| of circular
| logic to prove the existence of God in just three rather convoluted
| sentences. Impressive! I heartily encourage you all to create 
| music in that
| fashion. In fact, reminds me of many posts here on Looper's Delight.
| 
| Sadly, although Rene is considered the Father of Modern Philosophy, he did
| not live long enough to invent his own looper or compose any influential
| loop music, as he certainly would have. The queen of Sweden hired 
| him to be
| her tutor, and demanded that he begin instruction at 5am in cold 
| Sweden. He
| died within months. I'm sure the same would happen to me....

David,

I enjoyed the list of reading (or mind feeding) material.  I, too, am an
avid explorer in the literary realm.  I just stumbled across a CD "The Space
Between Us" - Craig Armstrong.  While perusing the bins you should check
this work out.  Excellent string arrangements with a few little beat drones
sprinkled in. I believe Craig used to be a partner or silent partner with
the big Massive Attack. Oh, I also discovered his name on the latest
Madonna/Orbit collaberation-"Ray of Light" with string work.  I think you
might enjoy.  It's worth the chance...

I thought I'd chip in, and tell what I'm reading right now - and a fine
distraction from bus-riding it is!  "Songs of Earth & Power" by Greg Bear is
something a friend lent me, and despite my internal comparisons to "The
Talisman", a Stephen King/Peter Straub collaboration, it would seem to be
much more substantial.

And a great read.  One premise involves the faerie folk not liking music,
especially when it comes from humans, because they perceive all music as
being potential magic, depending on its construction; thus, in our hands
it's like we're playing with explosives, though we don't realize it.  And,
as a result, it's banned in their Other World... :)

hey folks...

I see that Electronic musician etc has a  special issue - bundled with a CD
of demo software, Cakewalk is one of 'em. another is 'guitar studio'

I'd like to try this stuff out- i have a pentium PC - what kind of hardware

Hi All-

Actually I have given my goddaughter a little looping thingie that 
playskool has made.
It looks kinda like a jukebox and has about 16 rhythms, sound effects, 
and instrument parts. 
How it works is that the bambina can assign any of these voices to any 
of 6 spaces and the piece loops. You can change sections on the fly as 
well.
Really fun to show her how things can build or change...

selam,

Buck

There's a shareware windows program called SEQ303 avaolable from Metaphoric
Software, programmed by Jim Johnson. Being a mac snob, I haven't used it,
but it looks very cool, and Jim really knows his analog stuff. He also
makes an equally cool looking multichannel arpeggiator called ARPX8.

For info: http://www.technotoys.com/seq303.htm

Also, there are a few hardware analog-style sequencers out there, though
the cost may be a bit more than you'd like. I have a Doepfer MAQ16/3, which
offers 3 rows of 16 knobs, both cv and MIDI outputs and a very flexible
MIDI implementation.

Try Mort Subotnick's "Making Music" CD ROM.  You can do loops, and much
more.  It is an educational program about composing for kids 5 and older.
You can get it for Mac or Windoze.

Check it out at:

Is there any software available for the PC that could handle some of the 
looping features of the EDP/Boomerang/etc.?  I'm not talking about 
something like using cakewalk to record parts and then simply have it 
loop continuously.  I'm interested in more of the interactive or delay 
style options of feedback, overdub, etc.  I'm not worried about 
performing live in venues with my PC, just at home for fun -- and the PC 
definitely has the necessary hardware.  If it does turn into something 
that I'll use live, then I'll break down and buy an EDP/'rang/Jamman 
etc.


Suggestions?

Thanks,
Greg

It's http://www.discipline.co.uk/news/news.htm
And oh my, is it fun.

Hi all,

I'm new to the list, bought a EDP unit a few months back and I am having a
blast trying to figger the thing
out.

My current reading list is:

for fun(?!):
Brothers Karamazov - Fedor Dostoevsky

Blessed Paisius Velichkovsky; The Man Behind the Philokalia - Schema-monk
Metrophanes; Fr Seraphim Rose, trans.

St. Silouan the Athonite - Archmandite Sophrony

Diary of a Russan Priest - Fr. Alexander Elchaninov

Unseen Warfare -  Lorenzo Scupoli; St. Theophan the Recluse.

My Life in Christ - St. John of Kronstadt


On the lighter side:

Dark Genesis : The Birth of the Psi Corps - J. Gregory Keyes
If you like Babylon5, you've got to read this one, it's a double wham.


For work:
Java Threads - Oaks & Wong

JFC Programming - Weiner & Asbury
   not recommended, not very much detail, already out of date, of course.

UML Distilled - Fowler & Scott


Regards,

Jim

I dunno, I kind of like the way d 'n b has progressed into this highly
abstract, utterly non-danceable music, given its roots in the dance scene
and the fact that it's earliest raw materials were some of the funkiest
drum grooves ever. I hear Photek as coming from a similar place as the LTJ
Bukem stuff, his Logical Progression compilation was one of the first d 'n
b things that I really connected with. I like the way things are very
active on the micro-level while on the large scale, there's a certain
static minimalism to the music. Of course, not everything from the scene is
brilliant, or even good, but I still hear things I like.

I don't know if it'd be considered true d 'n b, to be honest I don't have a
lot of patience with the endless fractal sub-categorization of the
electronic music scene, but Amon Tobin's Permutations is pretty fantastic.
He's applying the d 'n b beat chopping approach to old jazz drum solos (a
drummer friend of mine says he hears Art Blakey and Max Roach on this
disc), Brazilian music, '50's exotica, and others. Also, Tobin seems to
have a real flair for composing interesting pieces, I've followed his stuff
for a few years, both under his name and as Cujo, and have liked everything
I've heard.

Oh, my......
Unless the device has a  dedicated imbedded chip that checks a system 
date, there is no need to worry.
Currently I am a Programmer working at a client site, and my only task 
is to make Systems Y2K complient......so I have some idea what I am 
talking about.

Greetings Kim and all others,

Well, it's happened. I finally found some KILLER LOOPS again. Those who   
have been on this list long enough might remember that quite some time   
ago I mentioned seeing some boxes with the aforementioned name on them in   
an optician's shop. Since the only time I was near there was about 02:30,   
I could never find out what they were. By the time I managed to get there   
in the day, they didn't have any.

At last the mystery has been solved! Another store has them on sale (an   
auto-parts, etc. store of all places), so I bought a pair. It turns out   
they are, as I'd surmised originally, sunglasses. Made in Italy, and   
distributed here by Ray-Ban, the suggested price is $150 Cdn., but they   
are being sold for $40!! Most of them are that oval, bug-eye style that   
seems to be all the rage, in all sorts of colours, but I managed to find   
some more reasonable black square ones (they fit in a pocket easier).

I have had the box scanned here at work, and will send it on, Kim, if you   
have access to a Mac ('cuz that's what it was scanned on to). Perhaps   
there could be a space for "sightings" as on the Elephant Talk site.

Best wishes to all (and beware of those KILLER LOOPS!!!!)

Jim Bailey

My work situation in recent months has left me spending almost all of my
time reading off of a picture tube rather than wood pulp, so when I get a
chance to read woody words, it's only a chapter or so at a time. Hence for
the last several weeks I've been reading the new one by John Irving _Widow
for a Year_. Prior to that I was delving into Gene Wolfe's early works.
Wolfe is one of the few SF writers whose work I'd consider real
"literature" (not to mention that he was a member of the engineering team
that invented the process for making those uniform Pringles potato
chips - oh damn, I mentioned it).

If you've got a Mac, check out M from Cycling74 (i think that's the
outfit...it's David Ziccarelli, of MAx fame...) also Xx by Eric Wenger. Both
of these are MIDI sequencers, but are optimixed for quick, visual
experimentation with looping content...and they use Quicktime, and they both
have free demos

Just a reminder that things are gonna get loopy tonight at Cafe Tattoo in
Baltimore MD. Performers are Tony Geballe (Robert Fripp & the League of
Crafty Guitarists/Trey Gunn Band/Toyah/solo album on DGM) on solo 12
string, Fingerpaint doing their loopy electric guitar synth thang and my
band The Dark Aether Project w/guest vocalist Ray Weston of echolyn fame. 

Between myself and Patrick & Steev of Fingerpaint, I think we'll have at
least a bare minimum of half a dozen looping devices on hand. 
 
Showtime is 9pm. For directions and more info visit the URL below.

Or, if you have an electronics surplus store nearby (as I do), they may   
have piezo-electric disks for use as speakers in some devices - I believe   
that's what goes "beep" in some computers. If they're not attached   
already, wires can be soldered on rather easily. They can then be used   
like a dynamic mic (caveat: they will also create feedback just the same,   
so beware!).

I have known about them for some time, and used them on rare occasions,   
but got more heavily involved after joining a local outfit called the   
Urban Refuse Group who, as the name implies, perform on found objects   
usually not intended as instruments. We don't do any fancy looping, just   
FX pedals, but I plan on trying stuff at home with my old tape set-up.

Hope this can help a few of you fellow loopers.
Sincerely,
Jim Bailey

Jim-

Well welcome.

I must say that it is pretty wild seeing your reading list, as it is 
stuff that I have been reading over the past year or so.
Are you Orthodox or a russophile?

I have been enjoying Acid by Sonic Foundry; http://www.sfoundry.com/
I have not used it much yet for looping my music but what it can do is very
cool.
check it out,

My daughter loves AudioRom's Interactive Music Shift Control CD Rom; it
consists of numerous fairly interesting graphical audio "maps" with various
tools that allow for real-time looping. Graphically, it is quite
sophisticated, and the audio borders on quite good (or, quite grating in the
hands of a maniacal five-year-old).

find it at:

	I've noticed this too . . . my take on it is a little less benign I
guess. To me, it seems like just another instance of a cool art form being
coopted for the sake of commerce - - thereby stripping it of any sense of
danger or threat, and totally subverting it away from the youth culture that
created it . . . turning it into yet another homogenized bit of corporate
culture. IMHO.


	Color me pessimstic . . .

>>> now we all know what we are listening to......what are we reading?

what are these "book" thingy's eveybody's talking about?  will they sync to
midi clock?

just finnished Slaughterhouse 5  (beter late than never).
other than that my reading has been mostly limmited to:

the manual for the Boss SP-202
the liner notes to the Genesis box
and "What to Expect the Toddler Years"  (ah, life with a two year-old!)

in my "to read soon" pile:

On the Road
a handfull of Phillip K. Dick paperbacks
and a stack of really old cookbooks i scored at a used book sale.

trivial enough?

	Howdy Y'All,

	So I think people are reading some interesting stuff . . . (actually
researched some for future reading)


	My question is this: Does it/How does it effect what you do
musically?


	For instance, a lot of my music writing is influenced by
literature/poetry or painting. I just went through a mental countdown and 21
of the 33 tunes across three CDs are in these two categories, eight were in
reaction to music/concepts by other players/composers, four are based on
"real life experiences."

	I tend to either be inspired by the feel of, or am intrigued by a
phrase or an idea from, a certain work. For instance, currently just
finished a piece based on my memories of the "feeling" of three novels by
Henry Miller. More in the works based on work by other authors and some on
film makers and painters . . . 



	stig


	(PS: Book last read four-volume set of "A Thousand Nights and One
Nights" ["The Arabian Nights"]; current reading "London Bridge"
Louis-Ferdinand Celine; next up "A Short History of Byzantium," "Collected
Tales of Nikolai Gogol," "History of the Arab People.")

I apologize if this has already been covered (yes, I searched the archives)
but...I must ask.  Does anyone have any experience with the MPX 2? 
Especially the "JamMan" mode?  Thanks!

Matt

But Acid doesn't really meet his request for a more
interactive/real-time/delay style of looping with things like overdub and
feedback. That usually implies the ability to be adding your own audio to
the loops in real time, and controlling that accurately, and nothing on PC's
really handles that well, or at all. The reason lies in the typical general
purpose OS's used, where audio I/O and user control latencies can be really
long. The time between when audio goes into the box and when it can come out
can be anywhere from 20ms to as much as 500ms, far worse than any
stand-alone box. Making a basic PC do any kind of real-time processing of
real world signals is very problematic for this reason. PC's are ok for
things like hard disk recording, sequencing and sound editing because there,
the application has many opportunities to compensate for all the latency.

Stand-alone devices like boomerang/echoplex/jamman/etc are specially
designed for low latencies and tight user control, which makes them much
better suited for more "live" (or real-time) loop creation/manipulation.

another idea might be Rebirth. http://www.propellerheads.se/

I've had quite some fun playing with it. If your kids are into video games,
they will probably be into the more techno/house type sounds that Rebirth is
good at. The interface is maybe a little more confusing than 8 sliders
(emulates the old TB303, TR909, TR808 interfaces/sounds), but I think any
gamer could figure it out.

Like I say Kim, I have never used it that way, however you can record and then
draw what you recorded on the fly and move and edit etc. Somebody on this list
said that they were using it live with a notbook. btw is there a software
version of an echoplex like looper? And what is latency but another delay?

Hi,
I've written a very basic delay program for something called csound.
It will give you crazy delay times, (I tried 2 minutes - no problem) in
stereo if you want it with unity feed back you can loop away to your
heart's content.
If this sounds too good to b true here are the disadvantages.
You need a very good sound card
Latency ie when you try to overdub your new track isn't quite where it
should be.
I use it as something to experiment with while I'm (still) saving for
a'plex
Gareth

I dunno, maybe it's that some cool musicians are infiltrating the music
industry. Maybe the subversion runs both ways? The Volkswagen add curently
running is probably the most ears the Orb have reached thus far.

Stig-

Well that's what it comes down to, doesn't it? 
For the most part I'm just happy to be able to have the time , energy, 
discipline to read so I usually go for stuff that will influence me or 
tie into work I am already doing or working on.
Por exemplo, I am going to be doing a series of workshops, music 
generation, and an installation in Kansas next year, so I have been 
working on Alan Lomax's Folk Song Style and Culture to help me find an 
appropriate voice for the spirit of the place.

As an aside, my girlfriend who is a doctoral candidate in Byzantine 
history is interested to see that so many folk on the list are 
interested in things Byzantine.

selam,


Buck

need to hear some solo Derek every few days. Anyone ever seen him live??

Frank Gerace/Dreamchild  Gates to the Sea beautiufl voacls with nice guitar
loops, bass, and percussion.....Some of these pieces are really haunting.
Frank is on the list. Give him a listen.

Can- Cannabilism Vol2

Flying Saucer-  Attack New Lands

Bill Frisell- Quartet

Mike Vargas _ Whispering the Turmoil Down beautiful solo piano work fromt
htis Boulder, CO based artist. One of my faves so far thisyear. Sort of an
update on Satie and Feldman

Morton Feldman Chamber Music

Jeff Collins Gutar Sonata's

As far as reading:

I alwyas enjoy flipping through and starting on any page and finding
inspiration the following three works.

The collected writings of Robert Motherwell

Silence By John Cage

The Art Spirit by Robert Henri

Also any work by Thich Nhat Han

Certain dribble by one recently known as Fribble..

Oooppsss that's three plus works......

Hi,

I recall someone mentioning a software looper that they were building
using MSP (http://www.cycling74.com) and Opcode MAX I think it was. I
searched the mailing list archive and cannot find any mention of it. Was
I dreaming ??

thanks for any info.,

Darcy

Ya know, I really shouldn't be adding to the noise
level on this, but really people, how many loopers
*does* it take to screw in a light bulb?

Ok.

Unless your processor needs to look at the current
date and records the year as a 2 digit string, you
have NOTHING to worry about.

Yeesh.

Y2K is definitely a virus like a chain letter.

I'm using SoundForge and have found that you can remove the mono elements
of a stereo track...... leaving you mostly with stereo effects (inverting
one channel and combing to mono)

I would like to use this in reverse.

Is there any way that you can remove the stereo elements leaving on the
mono parts of a track? I've had no luck so far, and suspect it may be
physically impossible.

I don't use SoundForge, but I take it you don't want to just add the two
channels. Why not perform the process above to get 'just the stereo stuff',
invert that, and then add it to the original? That is, why not subtract the
'stereo only' from the original to get the 'mono only' part? Hey, it's a
thought. . .

Hmmm,
Exactly what I thought, but I can't for the life in me work out what I'm
doing wrong.......

I just end up with either the original left or the original right channel.

I've been testing it on a wave file I made myself, mono (both channels
identical) I have me saying "middle, middle, middle", left channel "left,
left, left" and right channel "right, right, right". 

Is this a proper approximation of a stereo file? Cos if it is I just can't
extract the "middle, middle, middle" part by itself.

Any further thoughts would be appreciated.

Alex

Everything you do in life should affect your playing.
What I read becomes part of who I am (so to speak)
which then gets reguritated musically. In fact, I
would say that to only react musically to notes and
rhythms and whatnot will sooner-or-later dry you out
completely.

Why are lyrics in songs? Why name a song "Requiem for
the Victims of Hiroshima" rather than "Serenade for
Strings"? Etc. etc. etc.

Music is a part of the continuity of existence, so
get out there and live! Manuel Barreco said "One
cannot be a musician without drinking from the
fountain of Culture." (paraphrase)

Personally, I read esoteric occult books, Chinese
alchemy and comic books!

I had mentioned the software looper I'm developing to this list a few times.

You can grab it from my web site:
http://www.eclipse.net/~kmistove/Procrastination.sit.

It's a pretty simple patcher that you can use as is, add to yourself, or
wait for me to develop further. Anyone with a PowerMac (and eventually
other platforms - I can't find the official announcement, so you'll have to
take my word on it) are free to do what you wish with my looper.

Have fun!

Ken

Alex,

How did you 'make' this wave file? Obviously, the extraction method you are
using assumes that the 'mono only' stuff is whatever is relatively in phase
between the two channels, while the 'stereo only' material is everything
else. Are you sure that your voice saying 'middle' is exactly in phase L/R,
or might you have bumped one channel by a couple of milliseconds? Look real
close at the waveform. Sometimes, the phase relationship can get screwed up
at the very beginning of the recording process to a hard disk, like if the
latency is not the same for each channel, or if the file is not recorded as
interleaved.

Even the downloadable eval copy of Cool Edit (http://www.syntrillium.com)
performs this conversion, under the Edit/Convert Sample Type menu.  Never
had a phase error in several years. ;)

The removal/separation of exclusive elements is done through a crossfade mix

I know that fellow looper Andre' Cholmondeley was at the recording of the
"Sign of 4" recording at the Knitting Factory. In fact..listen to the end of
the third disc and you will hear Andre' yelling "DEREK BAILEY, DEREK
BAILEY!! Thank you Pat!".
By the way, the Improvisation programs are now on Video. Just do a look for
Mr. Bailey and Incus and you should find it.
Hope this brings with it a little happiness to those of us into Mr. Bailey.

Yes, Derek is really something. I've seen him only once. He played a show
in Eugene for me, my ex, and about a half dozen other folks. Some of them
left before he was done. I, however, was DELIGHTED. If you haven't seen it,
his book, "Improvisation" is terrific. It accompanied a BBC programme that
I never saw, but surely wish to!

I tend to read the same stuff over and over again gradually building in
new authors/styles/influences.
'can't think how this relates to looping though :)

Something that I'd like to see in all future looping devices is a dry out 
jack.  Older rackmount delays, such as the Digitech units always had 
this, which allowed me to send the unlooped preamp signal to one input of 
my mixer (passing through the looping unit), and the wet-only output from 
the looper to another.  

Using a preamp with stereo outs, I could have two parallel looping 
devices, maintain the preamp stereo image, and then have the two effects 
loops available for post loop processing (most small mixers seem to have 
only two effects loops).  Many of us have bemoaned the limitations of 
commercially availabe small mixers (six, eight channels) for looping 
applications, typically wishing for more sends.  Any manufacturers of 
current or future looping devices on the list, please take note.

Thanks,

Travis Hartnett

I haven't been reading much of anything interesting lately, though I have
just re-read Marquez's "One Hundred Years Of Solitude," and am planning on
picking up the new John Irving (still not believing that Hollywood has
corrupted yet another fine work ("A Prayer For Owen Meany") with a movie
adaptation).  Anyway, I've been looking for a couple of Bill Bruford/Patrick
Moraz discs for the past few years, and have struck out miserably.  They are
"Music For Piano And Drums," and "Flags."  If anyone has a copy of either or
both, would they be interesting in trading for other musics that I have that
might be of interest?

Please let me know.  Thanks,

Stephen (and all),

Have you also read "The Forge Of God," by Greg Bear?  If not, I could lend
you my copy.  I love it, particularly the ongoing universal fight between
good and evil.  It reminded me a great deal of John Bryne's take on Galactus
(from Fantastic Four).  I hope that I haven't stretched the threads of this
topic too taut.

Ciao,

I noticed the Jim Carroll reference in your reading material.  I got to meet
Jim at a poetry reading at the now-deceased Guild Bookstore (great memories
of the place), and got him to sign a copy of "The Book Of Nods."
Exceptionally evocative and visual poetry.  If you haven't read it, check it
out.  His stuff gave me the heart to handle Bukowski...

Starting off with the stereo elements sans mono, invert and mix again with
the original. Should workÉ

Was there a CD made to accompany this? Or was it just the two webcasts?

Absolutely. As everyone knows, the devices you mention are all
time-based effects and as such are very susceptible to Y2K problems.
This will be especially pronounced if you are playing a New Year's Eve
gig on 1999/2000. You could start a loop in 1999 and conclude it in
1900! Experts disagree on the severity of the effect, but concur that
your loop will probably be affected stylistically. An avant-garde wash
of music might be transmogrified into a Sousa march. Timeless music
should be unaffected.

just the two webcasts - they can still be watched at the museum website btw, 
but the sound quality sucks.

I went to the installation a week or two ago and made a 70-minute tape of its 
ambient music for myself. I will *not* make this available to anyone, sorry.

I heard that recordings of the museum concert with Czukay (very different 
music, and more interesting than the installation soundtrack) might eventually 
become available on CD.

Investigate the Korg DL8000R; with a stereo vol pedal controlling send-to, and
a Korg Exp2 pedal on feedback, you'll get 5.2 sec stereo looping, or 10+sec.
mono...plus a lot of other cool delay tricks, for around $400 (pedals

With no wish to start anything acrimonious, I must confess that I bought this
CD, largely on the basis of having read so much about RF here, and about this
"new" experimental "free" direction for him and his mates in the music press,
and was actually expecting to be stretched, or at least surprised with
something fresh, if not musically, at least sonically...I got about 3/4 of the
way thru this SpaceGroove side without spotting anything even slightly out of
the ordinary and eventually just called it off...it sounded to me completely
predictable, just aimless fleet-footed fusioneering with an occasionally
annoying bit of pitch-bent quasi-Vibe, standing in for an unmemorable guitar,
both doing their level best to be totally un-evocative of anything--just some
guys with instruments in a room making notes to a steady-ish beat...which I've
heard a few times before. Am I missing anything on the remaining disk--or did
I fail to detect something fascinating on this one? Is this what a
"Soundscape" is?? .....hope not...
Really, I'm not trying to be offensive to any fripp fans, and hope this disk
is NOT representative; guess I'm just venting over another $18 spent on
"expectations" that weren't,  and "entertainment" that wasn't...

<x-rich>On further investigating software looping capabilities of Opcode Max, I
found this:


http://www2.cybernex.net/~jonwitte/ReadMididelay.html


dunno if anyone mentioned this to the list yet, but the this sounds
pretty cool.


from the website :

"<bigger><bigger>What is Midi Delay?</bigger></bigger> Midi Delay does
many of the same things as a hardware digital delay and more...The
programs uses hardware digital delay terminology making it very
intuitive to use for most electronic musicians. In this fully
registered version of Midi Delay the user gets 15 seconds of delay
time, and 10,000 repeats (feedback) on the main delay and 16 multitap
delay sections that allows 15 seconds of delay time on each tap and the
ability to send the taps on different midi channels or to different
midi instruments. The multitap section can be fed to the main delay for
further processing and cool looping effects. Midi delay supports
Apple's Quicktime Musical Instruments v2.0 and higher as an output
source."

     Hi all
     
     This first bit may mainly be of UK-only interest, so apologies, but 
     Radio 3's Mixing It (tonight, 12-x-98 10.45pm) is supposed to include 
     SquarePusher discussing his new CD. Well, that's what they announced 
     last week, but the web site says to expect a session from Tortoise, so 
     either way it might be OK.
     
     Also fairly UK-centric. A new magazine about computers and music 
     called (duh) Computer Music was launched a few weeks ago. Its cover CD 
     features a list of useful URLs including Looper's Delight - world 
     domination one step nearer then. It also contains a full copy of 
     Cubasis Audio Lite, and a demo of Acid, and as I just got a (proper) 
     new PC, its nice to finally see what all that discussion was about. 
     
     For the same reason (new PC) I've been reading all the cover-disc mags 
     (or more accurately trying out all the demos - most of the mags are 
     content-free unless you're especially interested in a product review), 
     so not much `real' reading. However, I bought a remaindered copy of 
     Idoru, mostly cos Chapter One is entitled Death Cube K, which reminded 
     me of a discussion a while ago about Death Cube K/Buckethead - so who 
     anagramised whom, hmm?
     
     I'm also about to start Ian McEwan's Enduring Love. And just an hour 
     ago bought the double CD - Rites - by Jan Garbarek which includes 
     something close to block rockin' beats in places - sort of "I shook up 
     the tunes" (oh suit yerself). And another version of "...gray voice". 
     But I don't know what it sounds like yet - cos I've go two copies of 
     the second CD, and non of the first! Jolly nuisance. Live as it 
     happens etc.
     
     Anyone remember Del Bailey's version of the Lost Chord from the 
     compilation album with Fred Frith et al?
     
     Well that's more than enough so -
     
     Cheers
     
     David

     I've noticed this too . . . my take on it is a little less benign I
guess. To me, it seems like just another instance of a cool art form being
coopted for the sake of commerce - - thereby stripping it of any sense of
danger or threat, and totally subverting it away from the youth culture
that
created it . . . turning it into yet another homogenized bit of corporate
culture. IMHO.


     Color me pessimstic . . .

Alex (and Aden)-

When you invert one channel and then sum the two, as you did, you remove all
signals where L=R, which is mono.  This is commonly known as the (L+R)
signal.  What you are left with is commonly known as the difference signal,
or (L-R).  A stereo signal consists of (L+R) and (L-R).  If you add the two,
you are left with only L, if you subtract the two, you are left with only R.

You can do as Aden says, first obtain the difference signal and then add
that to the total, and you will be left with the sum, or mono signal.  There
is an another, perhaps easier way to achieve this.    Just combine L and R
without inverting one channel.  Then, you remove all signals where L= -R.
This is the part of the total signal which produces a sense of spaciousness,
and is commonly called the (L-R) or difference signal.  You will remove this
whenever you simply sum L and R.  

(Incidentally, if you boost the (L-R) relative to the (L+R), you achieve
"expanded stereo", or "SRS", or Carver "Sonic Holography", or any of a
number of schemes developed since Dynaco (David Hafler) devised "Matrix
Surround Stereo" in the '60's by connecting one speaker across the (+)
output terminals of a stereo amplifier, and placing this speaker in the rear
of the room.  It is all the same thing.)  The new Fender acoustic amp does
something like this.  You can do cool things with the difference signal
(L-R), which you can isolate by inverting one channel and then summing the
two.  For instance, you can get rotating speaker effects by either amplitude
modulating this signal and/or doing time-delay modulation to it (passing it
through a choruser, phasor, etc.), then combining it back with the sum (L+R)
signal. 

If you are familiar with opamps, as I assume you might be since you are
experimenting with these things, you can easily and cheaply make a circuit
using readily-available quad opamps to have both the sum and difference
channels at your disposal to do all kinds of creative processing:  Sum the
two channels, for (L+R), which is mono.  Invert one channel and then sum the
two, which is the stereo difference signal.  Now, if you sum and difference
these two signals unmodified, then you end up with the original L and R
channels (stereo).  You can play with the sum and difference signals to
achieve cool effects before recombining.  This is how a lot of movie
soundtrack effects are achieved, also reverb effects, particularly if the
reverb and other time delay functions are used in the difference signal.

I'm using SoundForge and have found that you can remove the mono elements
of a stereo track...... leaving you mostly with stereo effects (inverting
one channel and combing to mono)

I would like to use this in reverse.

Is there any way that you can remove the stereo elements leaving on the
mono parts of a track? I've had no luck so far, and suspect it may be
physically impossible.

Whoa boy !!!!

The "Frippheaded Math Rockers" are gonna love you (Dpcoffin)  for that one.

Mention the name Fripp and all people will have somethin to
eventually say.

And I can see it now,  Endless E-Mail Headers looking like this:

"In defense of ..."

"Regarding your criticisms of Mr. Fripp" ...

or , "The Importance of understanding the crafty nature of gentlemen" ...

"Clarification of Fripp's stance" ...

"Of commerce and art or some other "overly analytical "verbiage".

And of Course comentatary will endlessly try to make a response to you into
some type of equation where they can mathematically prove your "Opinion"
wrong..

Wanna take bets as to how many replies will be like that ???

O' well, I will take the bait Dp provided and finish w/ an opinion.

Now, Opinions are important, but not the end all or be all. And I do happen
to "kinda" agree with DP on this one.

I think project 2 is more of a "for die hard fans" only disc that never
really gets off the ground. I also think it wasn't really ever supposed to be
"barn burner".  It also kinda lets people see what it is that Trey Gunn
actually
does or can do surrounded or burried under all the firepower crimson has inside
its
belly.

Spacegroove seems more like a Fripp and "Friends" at home having a "jam"
with the "new drum toy" Belew got in the mail. It strikes me as stuff that
would
probably never be released under most anal Fripp circumstances.

What I really do like about Spacegroove is that it does not have that "total"
air of
Frippieness that just about evrything he does has.

I'm more impressed by artists that constantly change their groove once
they've established it. Fripp can and has done that while being completely
tortuous, subversive, subtle, mechanical and purely spellbinding at any given
moment. He's a paradox that does not quite fit anywhere 100%.

Even though Space Groove shows a that there is more to him than what you
normally hear,  I still can't seem to find much interesting or rather
sustaining in these 2 discs other than the dancier traks with the  "Asian"
Sounding type guitar groove on the..
well u know... the dancier cut on the less "fusiony" disc.

This is more like Fripp walking around in his boxer shorts but having a
very good time it seems.

Dear Looper's,

The following review of FingerPaint's Primary Colors: BLUE is form the most
recent issue of FAQT Electronic Culture Volume 2 NUmber 4

FAQT is available from Tower Records and other fine stores.

  In an ambient vein of a different sort is FingerPaint from Takoma Park,
MD who have pressed thier own CD called Primary Colors: BLUE. The sounds on
PC:B are quite amazing for such an independent release, a bubbling
meandering collage of sine wasves and synth pads that flirt with new age,
but succed in surpassing that ill fated tag by leaps and bounds.
FingerPaint can be as edgy and intense as it can be relaxing, accomplishing
this with minimal percussion. And a sinister bent brings several tracks
close to dark ambient territory. Well done.


I doubt this will stir up as much angst as el Fripp.......


Patrick

Now Available:
                      FingerPaint Primary Colors: BLUE

A guitar-synth looping duo of dark illbience and dreamy ambience.
Shockwave audio featuring our newest release Primary Colors:Blue

	Hey Dave,

	Yes, this occurs to me as well. I think that subversion CAN cut both
ways. To me, however, it usually comes down to the corporate folk using
things as the current flavor/window-dressing for their necessary
adverstising uses (and they "do" need to advertise. As opposed to some
people who are creating the stuff because they "need to"  . . . I just
remember the days about 8(?) years ago when the new sound in advertising was
fake U2-style guitar music. 

	The other deal about subversion from the other side (rather than the
mercantile side) is this (got this from a PolySci teacher): It's the Golden
Rule - - you take their gold, you follow their rules.

	Musically, I think that the stuff sounds good . . . as I said I'm a
pessimist about this sort of thing tho' . . .

I agree with you guys on this one (even though i'm a big fan of Mr.
Fribble) ... fripp in boxer shorts, but with the end of his cock
dangling out the bottom of one side ! - a bit too relaxed.
We all work best musically at some point of 'passionate motivation' ..
mabye they should get drunk next time ...

Hi there - 

I'm a new list member & electro/acoustic percussionist. After doing some 
research it looks like the only box to buy  ( for my purposes) is the 
much loved Oberheim Echoplex Digital pro.

I;m sure that this question gets asked often but here it goes...

Where can I get the best price on the Echoplex and whats the going rate?

I've called Musicians Friend & Bananas at Large both quoted $729 for the 
unit.

The new gear price list has only one listing ($479) but that was from 1996

I just want to check the list  before lay down the cash....


peace,

john

While mentioning to a friend about looking for an OB echoplex he 
suggested that I buy his little used Boomerang. 

I have one question: Is the memory upgradeable? He has a 30sec/1min 
version.

Thanks,


jmw

hi jmw,

the memory is certainly upgradable... standard 30 pin 4 meg RAM boosts the
'rang to 2min/4min... all that needs to be done is open 'er up, pull out the
same looking 1 meg card and plug in the 4 meg (there are fairly sturdy pegs
holding it in)...

if you've got the cash go the 'plex though.... or buy both... the 'rang has no
midi for electronic percussion and might not have enough sampling rate for
acoustic percussion (you lose a bit of top... which is just fine for my dark guitaring)

brad

pssst.. i love the 'rang

I dunno about you, but I kind of like Space Groove.  It's great 
music for driving, that's for sure, especially if you are on a 
rather long trip.

It's also rather interesting in that on that first track, Fripp
gets to solo until his brain falls out (I've finally decided that
this is Fripp instead of Gunn as there are several obvious 
Fernandes Sustainor bits in there, as well as some Digitech Whammy
pedal usage).

Yes, it's not heavily composed and maybe not recorded with an air
of "THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT RECORDING" about it, but it's sort of
rare to hear Fripp in a "jamming" situation, where he's obviously
improvising over a groove (I don't think Thrakattack counts...)

It sounds fun to me - for that, I like it.  I'm waiting for the
next real King Crimson project for "next generation" innovation.

haha (LOL!) i almost forgot that little detail!! yeah - Jeff, you're right
- i was in the smallish crowd at the late knit show of that insane
quartet!! they tore our heads off- has anyone out there NOT heard even a
bit of this great 3 disc set yet??? Tow state of the art drummers and two
sonic masters - Metheny and Bailey - they made spiderwebs of sound, then
WALLS of sound...

I also was lucky enuf to see the great DB at a duos festival at the old
knit - i seem to remember him doing duos with John Zorn .. and maybe Fred
Frith. I've also seen him play a solo set. The guy is just approaching
guitar TOTALLY from the other side... check him out on acoustic - he has a
duets CD with Kaiser called "Wireforks" (get it?)

all hail the bail'

This was in the news today,

Echo of the past

THE Mayans may have made the world's first audio recording a thousand years ago. This is the claim of an acoustics engineer who says
the properties of echoes produced by Mayan pyramids suggest they were built to copy the cry of sacred birds.

Guides often clap a pair of rocks together to entertain the crowds of tourists at the Kukulk‡n pyramid at Chichen Itza in Mexico. The echo
that comes back is surprising, a descending chirp of "EE-oo". The guides say the sound was engineered by the Mayans to mimic anything
>from an animal cry to the ghostly howls of humans sacrificed at that spot. But serious Mayan scholars have written this off as nonsense.

nope, dp - you missed nothing. I love fripp unabashedly - he is and remains
and will be a favorite and a huge influence and source of musical joy for
me.

But the SPace groove CD is not groundbreaking, no more than the series of
soundscapes albums are. perhaps(?) to fripp's credit - he doesn't call em
such - some of the press - and many fans do...but it's emperors new clothes
here.

But i WILL say - tha by the time i saw them live - they smoked!!!! their
big mistake - was - most of the stuff on the CD was from the FIRST day they
got into the studio and jammed!!! you know - you jam- it comes out great on
tape - you're excited - so you release it (given you have a record company
handy) - but as we all know - the music 2-3 months later will be so much
better in this knida setting... so - i'm puzzled as to why they put out the
embryonic stuff - when the live stuff was incredibly eveolved!!! the show i
saw - plus a tape i'v heard - are simply unmissable. see the fall tour,
tape the CD off a friend....

peace, andre'

I quite agree! The last time my looper got really drunk it took forever

Sorry, Travis, couldn't resist that one.

James it is released on DGM. ANd is available from Possible Productions. I
do not have their number handy, but if you search the web for Elephant
talk, I know that you can access DGM"S site from their.

AS to the content of Space Groove, yes it''s not ground breaking music, but
how much music is? I do enjoy listening to it myself. It's fun.

Have been talking and haggling with Musician's Friend since Thursday 
over an Echoplex. They agree to send it overnight yesterday. I got it at 
3:30. But only the foot pedal.
I call them up to say what the fuck.
"Oh they don't make them anymore. We can't get anymore."
Why didn't you tell me this THURSDAY!

That information is incorrect.  The Echoplex is still made and sold, and
currently in stock.  If Musician's Friend places an order with us they
should be able to get one fairly quickly.

Hey all!  Someone is selling a Lexicon Vortex at Harmony Central for a mere
$125.  Go to www.harmonycentral.com and then to the effects classifieds.
The ad looks like it just went up (dated 10/13).  There's also an older ad
for a $200 one.

Hi,

RE:
>"Oh they don't make them anymore. We can't get anymore."

Stories like that are a real deterrent to ordering the product. A dealer I
spoke to -- whom I subsequently learned was the Canadian distributor for
Echoplex -- also spoke of unreliable delivery, didn't give me a firm price,
wanted a 10% downpayment (never required on any other product I have
ordered), and urged patience.

I have had either no response, or a negative one, from other dealers that I
have written to -- including 8th Street Music, which was mentioned on this
list. After trying for over a week, I am still unable to find an Echoplex
in stock. 

Yet Dino Cattaneo, from Gibson, writes:

>That information is incorrect.  The Echoplex is still made and sold, and
>currently in stock.  If Musician's Friend places an order with us they
>should be able to get one fairly quickly.

Or, more colorfully:

>That's bullshit. Oberheim has them in stock and is shipping to dealers
>regularly. I talked to them about it just the other day.

What gives? Why does there seem to be so much confusion about this? 

Can we place a group buy of Echoplexes at a good price -- either from a
dealer or directly from Gibson -- through the list?  Should I pick up a
Lexicon JamMan that I was offered instead?  Buying it would be hassle free
and it would certainly cost less.

Thanks,

Howard

i don't really recall anyone saying they "don't like space groove", but
rather that we have to have some kinda gauge of excellence - if everything
is 'awesome' (not your words), then we're stuck with nowhere to go. It's
just not as good as it woulda been if they had released stuff from , say,
the 4th or 5th rehearsal instead of the first. anyone who saw the excellent
shows will vouch for that.

Hi Howard,

FWIW,  my opinion is that you should slog through and wait for the EDP. I
got mine (finally) from Banana's At Large, after waiting about a month.
Definitely worth the wait, and the hassle.

Just my 2 cents,

Jim

Echoplexes are in stock at Oberheim/Electar.  We are shipping them as we
speak to dealers who order them.

Fascinating but how is this a recording.
I'd like to visit the site myself. What a great place to do a gig!!
Of course you'd have to assess the frequencies produced and adjust your
key accordingly.
Incidentally I've heard of someone trying to extract audio from Roman
pottery.
The theory is that as the potter's wheel turned, the hand of the potter
slid down the outside of the pot acting as an acoustic pickup. Similar
to a wax cylinder. This would harden to produce a recording of the room
assuming the more or less constant speed of the potter's wheel ;)

Hola-

Thanks one and all for their words of encouragement.
I find the lack of support, and knowledge for this product breathtaking. 
I understand it is a chicken and the egg kind of thing, its different, 
its price point is high for something that is different, and with its 
history folks just don't want to have them...

Here however were my real issues. 
1) they said that they had one in stock.
2) i was going to start working with it over this long weekend for a 
project in two weeks.
3) now if I am lucky I may get it in 3.


man 


selam,

Buck

Yes, definitely this idea earns a smiley.  By the same principle, wouldn't a Roman aquaduct 
record the sounds of the countryside (with the bricklayer's hand acting as an acoustic 
pickup)?  ;)

Hi,

Someone who spoke to someone at Gibson, or even someone who works there,
can post what they like in an email message to this list, but it certainly
is not reassuring in light of the message excerpt below. I am extremely
reluctant to order an Echoplex from anyone at this point. IMHO, if they are
really interested in selling these things, Gibson/Oberheim needs to deal
with these issues.

Regards,

Howard

I believe that it was not the hand, but a piece of straw used for design on the sides of pottery. I have heard the recordings on tv, maybe
pbs. They captured the sounds of the marketplace ,etc.

If you want to order Echoplex with or without the footpedal controller, and
memory expansions, you can order them through Long & McQuade in Pine Brook,
N.J.  Dino at Gibson/Oberheim has indicated that units are in stock and are
available for quick shipment.  They are an Oberheim dealer.

You might also try ordering them through Dave Phillips Music in Phillipsburg,
NJ...908-454-3313....ask for Dave Phillips , Steve or Pete.  I understand that
Gibson dealers can now supply these products...Dave Phillips is a Gibson
dealer.   

Sam Ash or Manny's in NY or the NJ offices, or Guitar Center for that matter
should also be able to supply them.

I just got two units to use in stereo (master/slave) with upgraded memory and
foot controller..the units are a gas...I particularly like the fact that I can
have a verse and chorus of different lengths, and switch between loops.  I
couldn't do that with my Jamman!

Dino at Gibson/Oberheim has been of great help to me in getting my
units...complete with pretty good manuals.  They're available if you have
problems, or questions.  Dino is a member of this Loopers list
too....DCattane@gibson.com.  He's a good guy, and willing to assist.

I highly recommend the product, and considering what it does for me, I'll get
a return on investment in no time...particularly since I don't need to have a
rhythm guitarist with me on my solo gigs...and I'm free to improvise.  I love
it for my coffee house gig.

Howard,

Why blame Gibson/Oberheim for a promise made by Musician's Friend? I can
certainly understand
Buck's frustration. I don't like it when people lie (intentionally or no)
to me either. My own experience with Banana's at Large  was very positive.
They where honest about the wait when I ordered and they phoned me the day
they shipped it out, giving me the UPS tracking number so I could watch it
crawl towards me.

That said, you should only plunk down the (considerable) pile of cash for
the EDP if you think it will meet your needs.

ranting yet again,

Jim

As an owner of 3 Echoplex digital pros, my take is that this is not a
Gibson/Oberheim issue.  Rather, it is an issue with who you choose to
buy the EDP (or anything else) from, whether you ask them if they have
it in stock, whether you ask when it will ship, and whether they are
honest with you. 

As of last week, Robbs music in Boulder, CO. USA (303 443-8448) had 2
EDP and 1 footpedal in stock, ready to sell.  They told me $700 for
the EDP and $135 for the footpedal.  They told me they would match
price. I found Bannan's at Large (don't remember which store) had them
for $699 and $109 for the footpedal, and they too would also match the
best price you find (they had 2 in stock).  So, find your price, call
Robbs or Banana's at Large, or whoever, ask the right questions, deal
with the store that you believe you can trust. If they lie (and do not
ship on time), then you have recourse to cancel the order and go
somewhere else.

Oberheim/Gibson cannot possible control what any given salesman/phone
order person at all dealers will tell you (or not tell you, if you
don't ask).  

Dino and Mike at Gibson/oberheim have always responded to my requests
promptly and honestly.

The EDP is remarkable, I have owned 2 Jammen, and also have a
boomerang phrase sampler.  Not to start a "which is better" argument,
the EDP has capabilities that I find extremely useful, and more suited
to my needs and interests than the other 2.  In my experience, it is
no more difficult to find and buy an EDP than a boomerang, and is
easier than buying a Jamman (as it is discontinued).

If you want to get frustrated with a manufacturer, ask Electro
Harmonics when the 16 second delay will again be available ;-)

Good idea, Howard. I'd be into it. Anybody else interested in checking for

I think Buck's issue was clearly with Musician's Friend, not Gibson, but
anyway....

The "Someone who spoke to someone at Gibson" was me, one of the echoplex
developers, speaking to the General Manager of the division that produces
the echoplex. The "someone who works there" was Dino Cattaneo, who is/was(I
think he's switching) product manager for the echoplex and other Oberheim
products at Gibson. I don't think you could get much more direct info than
that! ....most dealers are probably not that well connected. That's the
value of lists like this, manufacturers take them seriously enough to put
real representatives here. (maybe more dealers should do the same....)

As far as Gibson dealing with these issues with dealers, they have been
very aggressive on that front and deserve credit for that. I think the
reactions you are hearing from some places are due to the chaos that was
Oberheim a year and a half ago. Some people haven't forgotten the problems
of those days, and you can hardly blame them. However, since then Gibson
has completely turned things around with the echoplex. They've been pumping
them out and meeting all Oberheim dealer requests for some time now.
They've also been very good with customer support, another big change. And
more recently, Gibson switched the Echoplex to a different division that is
better equiped to handle it than Oberheim was. They will now be selling it
through all Gibson dealers, rather than just Oberheim dealers. That should
considerably expand it's availability. Its night and day from the old OB
dark ages! (year long waiting lists, nobody answering the phone, calls not
returned, orders never filled, etc....remember that?)

I think the evidence of this change is pretty apparent, as there are an
awful lot of new echoplex owners appearing all of a sudden. If you
encounter dealers who don't seem to be aware of these events, you might
want to encourage them to check with Gibson again as some dealers might not
be up to date on how much things have changed there. Or, perhaps you can
take this opportunity to humiliate them with your superior knowledge of
their own business. :-)

Also, the fact that the Echoplex went from being a neglected and doomed
product in Gibson's backwaters to to it's now increasingly significant and
prominent position in their product line, with significant resources behind
it, has a lot to do with the influence and pressure from this list. Y'all
have the power to move mountains if you want to. I think though, it's time
to exert that power on Musician's Friend and demand that they clean up
their act as well!

This business with clay sounds suspiciously similar to one of the
"well-known facts" brought to light in the Firesign Theatre's "Everything
You Know Is Wrong," amongst them:

	Our forefathers took drugs!
	The Aztecs invented the vacation!
and	Your brain may not be the boss!

No, no, but almost seriously, folks, one of the interesting bits in this
marvelous video (which was also a record) involves the playing of a wire
recording allegedly dating back to post-Civil War days...

Interesting that wire recorders are still used too, in the Black Boxes we
hear about being retrieved, all too often.

I think the idea of a loopers delight bulk Echoplex purchase
is most excellent. I would certainly like another unit (well really
I'd like two but lets see what sort of price we can get).
Surely Gibson/Oberheim will deal with an esteamed organisation
such as this group.

Now one question - if/when the group purchases, say, ten units
will someone be good enough to post one to the UK labelled 
"old newspapers / no commercial value" 
'cos the import duty is a killer (nearly 100 pounds on my other one).

Been thinking about buying on of these babies recently, so I am definately
interested in a group buy. I suspect that there are business reasons why
Gibson will not wish to do this and I can certainly understand and probaly
even respect those reasons.

BUT IF a deal is available I'm certain that I and my partner in sound Steev
Geest will be interested in adding at least one unit each to our battery of
gear for FingerPaint.

Whadda think Dino?

Just to throw another 2 cents in the mix...( my god....metaphor salad)

Mike Ayers  - Oberheim customer service said:

"Dealer orders rec'd for the EDP are usually shipped the next day."

Which made me happy since I hope to have mine soon.

A group purchase would be cool, but I imagine it would have to be through 
a Gibson products dealer. I doubt they would let us jump over their 
dealer network, even as influential, handsome and creative as I imagine 
all on this list to be (myself excluded until I actually get my 
looper...).

I've really been feeling comfortable on this list - there's alot of 
interesting ideas & discussions, most everybodys list of influences is 
similar to mine and there's  not a huge volume of "complaint mail" - 
(because the products that everyone uses work well). I've also been 
visiting the various loopers home pages and checking RA files - there's 
some great music.

peace,

jmw

Regarding the numerous comments about how P2 somehow doesn't live up to Fripp's 
highest level of work... calling it "fusion-like noodling"... "not 
groundbreaking" etc.

Are there any of you out there who actually prefer looser "open" jamming and 
minimal imposed structure? Possibly with each member bringing their own 
compositional ideas in the form of "surprises" which they employ at random in 
response to the nature of the improv?

I don't personally have "Space Groove" yet (but will)... I saw the Santa Cruz 
show and thought it was spectacular...

Hi,

etc.

Thanks Kim and everybody who responded to my concerns about finding and
purchasing an Echoplex. Your message certainly puts things into perspective.

I certainly didn't mean to disparage anything that Kim or Dino had posted
to the list. I apologize if I gave that impression. It's just that I am a
newbie here, and found the contradictory postings, along with my own
experience, somewhat frustrating and disconcerting.

I ook forward to becoming an Echoplex owner. There does seem to be an
interest in a group buy. How would we go about putting something like that
together?

Regards and thanks again,

Howard

	I also doubt that a bulk purchase is probable.

	If it happens.., I'd be interested.

I'm interested in getting myself an Echoplex. It would be great to get a
bulk purchase. Perhaps get a deal with a guitar shop to get the price at a
little above dealer cost. I'm interested in being the one to do that. You
can check out the website of the company i work for at...
http://www.langmusic.com/
be advised that the site is old and we do not have the JamMan that is on
there. If it was on there...I'd have it.
By the way. I am working on Saturday and Monday. So if you wanna call and
check it out...we can do that.
Sincerely,
Jeff Collins

Depending on price, I'd be interested as well.  However I share the 
pessimistic (realistic?) view that Gibson/Oberheim probably cannot do 
this for various contractual issues they have with their distribution 
channel partners.

The possibility remains that a bulk purchase discount could be obtained 
from a reseller.  Maybe Musician's Friend?  Buck, could you look into 
that?  (I'm only kidding....)  Of course a reseller might not want to 
discount that heavily when they need to ship dozens of units to separate 
addresses.

The real question might be: What would you consider a good deal on an 
EDP and the FC?  $500 for both?  $600?  What price makes it worth 
everyone's while.  I have no idea what the mark-ups are and therefore 
how much room there is to maneuver.

-Greg

I know it's not looping exactly but i but someone here can fill in the
blanks on this creature.

I have a chance to buy a GR300 (roland analog guitar synth) and GR303
controller (evidently the two cutaway "SG" type model). I have never
played one of these and only know the hype:

"It tracks really weel"

"Fripp et all played them"

What I'm looking for is some more indepth practical info on it. Or even
the GR303 guitar for that matter. how is the tracking compared to a
decent midi comtrller guitar (I use a casio MG series and like it but
it's obviously not perfect)

Anything I should look out for or check tomake sure it's 100%.

I have a ton of synths (including polyphonic rolands and lots of analog
monosynths and some modular stuff). Does this unit offer anything unique
in sound or style that other synths and guitar/midi guitars in
particular are missing?

The price ain't low but it seem reasonable for such a rare piece. i just
want to be sure I can use the sucker.

Any info on insight appreciated. All I have right now is a JPG of the
floor unit and no specs. I've tried two archives but didn't come up with
much more.

thanks for any/all help!

You have stirred EDP lobal brain activity.!!
You have awakened the primordial loop in all of us.!!
You have..

Oh... and I too would be interested in the group purchase.

I have some suggestions on how this should be carried out.
If the bulk purchase is made through a dealer, then a single trustworthy
dealer\person should be the contact.
All of the Echopli should be in stock at once if possible, and all of
the funds should be transferred at around the same time.

All of the Echopli should be maxxed out with memory, yes?

As far as price goes, I would think that for a maxxed out EDP with foot
controller, $600 would be a great buy, and $650-$670 would be realistic
bulk purchase.. Anyone have any price comments?.

Also, everyone should have the same order, ie. limit the possibility of
mixups.

For people of non-US residence, then maybe a person\people in the US can
send the EDP to others as "gifts" or trivial non-commercial devices with
low price tags, so the recipients can avoid high taxes and duties.

To make this work, we also need a US contact for the bulk purchase.
Any volunteers?

To qualify you must have less than 5 years jail time for offences like
fraud, embezzlement etc.

I believe the correct plural form is "echoplicis". Some latin expert
provided that useful nugget to the list a very long time ago.....

damn! leave me out then. It's probably ok if you don't know much latin, though.

I had a GR300 and a GR808 controller (neck through the body, maple and
walnut body and neck, gold hardware) in the early 1980s.  Here are the
important things to understand about the GR300:

1.  It is not programmable.  You can't jump from a flute patch to a cello
patch with the press of a button.

2.  There is only one oscillator per string.  However, you can get the
effect of two oscillators per string by mixing the sound of the string with
the sound of the synth.

3.  You cannot select different waveforms for the oscillators.  Also, it
only has an Attack control--not an ASDR.

4.  No MIDI.

5.  The hex fuzz sounds cheesy--at least to my ears.

6.  The knobs are large enough so that you can adjust them with your feet.

7.  Before I bought the GR300, I had an ARP 2600.  The 2600 had an infinite
amount of patching possibilities, while the GR300 was very limited.  It was
easy to get strange sounds out of the 2600, but difficult to get anything
strange out of the GR300.  Then I realized the big difference--the GR300 was
much more expressive than the 2600.  The guitar controller let me pitch bend
and change dynamics much more naturally than the 2600's keyboard and knobs
and sliders.

8.  There is a slight amount of delay between plucking the string and
hearing the GR300.  That's why most GR300 users favor the Pat Metheny
"trumpet" sound.  In fact, if you listen to recordings of guitarists who
used the GR300 (Pat Metheny, Bill Frisell, Belew, Fripp, Elliott Easton on
the Cars, Steve Howe, Steve Hackett, etc.), only Fripp and Belew used sounds
that were different than the "trumpet" sound.  (I think the GR30 or GR09
come with a factory patch called "GR300.")

9.  It's ruggedly housed in a thick metal box.  However, be careful of the
bottom edges, they're sharp.  I sliced four of my fingertips on my left hand
(only hours away from a gig) when I picked up the GR300 by the bottom edge
of the box.

10.  Here's an example of how responsive the GR300 was:  My GR808 had a dead
spot on the neck at the 7th fret on the B string.  The GR300 always tracked
this note exactly as the GR808 produced it--dead with no sustain.  I could
play the same note on the G string and it would sustain just fine.  This
really bothered me, but looking back, the GR300 was only acting as
expressively as the GR808.

11.  My GR808 was neck heavy.  I did not like this.  It made me use my left
hand to "lift" the neck to my prefered playing angle.

12.  The patch cord that goes between the GR300 and the GR808 may or may not
still be available.  If possible, buy as many as you can find.

13.  The GR300 produced slightly less gain than the average guitar.

14.  For additional sonic possibilities, Roland made a box that let you
control two GR300s from one guitar.  Pat Metheny used this setup.  Again,
this box may no longer be available.

Bottom line:  I thought the GR300 was a one-trick pony that did its trick
very well considering the limitations of technology in the early 1980s.

I hope this helps.

Mathias, Kim, Plexofans

In the new features or inprovements I would like to see the
followings

Multiple plex features 
- 2 midi chan for the plex:
The first being the general chan that you would adress for talking to
all the plexes this is also the channel that would transmit the
footswitch commands to the slaves
the second is the private chan when you want to talk to each machine
separately

- In sampler style with run (switch Q off) the first note on behaves
like it does now but a second note on (same note) should refire the loop
to allow placing the loop at any point in time (could be very practical
to flip around phrases relating to the music around)this *must* work
also with sync in; the start point being pointed to the midi clock so it
keeps a qantized relation to the outside world

- multiple plexes syncing to a seq: would'nt it be better if the midi
clock would only ataign the first one in the chain the brother sync
making the sync further in the chain (sync _in_ on plex1 sync _brother_
in plex2, plex3, plex4 etc..
(btw is brother sync expandable with more than two plexes)
the other way when the seq is the midi clock slave: the last plex in the
chain sync _out_ the others 
being in _brother sync_
- undo redo: the undo switch is one of my favorite switches it alows me
(if the loop isnt too long) to step the successive tranformations
backwards the redo switch would allow to go forward again allowing
navigate thru the different undo layers (the next loop switch would be
the best candidate)


merci pour votre attention

bonne journee

Claude

The list for the EDP is $995 & ASFAIK Gibson is one of those 50%-off list 
companies, (as  the usual retail on their guitars is 40% off list)but 
they may offer price breaks for larger quantities. No idea on the pedal 
though...maybe list is $175 or $200.

My guess is that my local store is paying about $500 + frieght for the 
EDP. I imagine that both the pedal & EDP for $600 would be nearly 
impossible - unless someone was willing to completely for go profits.

I'll call a couple of people today & see what can be worked out...

whew

what a shitstorm

again - the AXIOMS are proven:

"Thou shalt never make a measured, clear comment on Fripp that is not
unabashed praise"

"Thou shalt never try to discuss gradations in quality of Fripp's music"


or are they the lost commandments ??

Christ - do any of the several people who have responded to one pretty
benevolent comment have a copy of my email. ?!?!? Go read it!!!

I said the music is fine - my comments were about the response of the
press/fans - i found it a bit extreme to say the least.... i'm just not
gonna be a auto-pilot fan - where all material by my hero is the greatest
thing, period, at all times. and guess - what!!! Fripp doesn't think
everything he does is at the same level of amazing excellence!!!

Hi John,

While waiting for meaningful dialog, I developed a mild case of Looper's 
Tourette's... I *meant* to set sarcasm mode somewhere lower than STUN... Sorry 
if the humor was a little caustic! 8-> Hey!.. Maybe it *is* work, now that you 
mention it.

There have been two or three attempts to begin threads which received no list 
replies. I did get some offline comments, but would have liked to see more of 
the group's opinions... I'll give it one more try.

One post was about motivations and influences outside of music, and how they 
affect our process... (after the LD lit crit thread)

The other post by myself queried about how we can, in several posts, criticise 
Fripp for jamming/improvising without discussing or comparing this work to other
more succesful attempts by other artists and why they were successful. (or 
something like that.)

It seems that *most* of us improvise... some completely, other's not quite so 
much... How do we create meaninful work of this nature which will endure and 
still retain that free spirit?

This query is *NOT* a defense of Fripp... This is an attempt to find methods to 
improvise which will lead to interesting and so-called groundbreaking music. I 
found Derek Bailey's book very interesting and inspiring, but now would like to 
see how other's here deal with the pitfalls of "walking the wire" in public?

BTW: Thanks for asking, John!

Yours truly,
-Miko Biffle

OK - here's the scoop. I talked with the owner of Alto Music in 
Middletown, NY and told him I might be able to move 7 to 10 units ( based 
on the list response).


$560 for the EDP

$660 For both the EDP & Pedal + shipping (& tax if you're in NY)

If we're gonna do this we'll have to work out some kind of pre-payment 
scheme since I'm sure he won't order $4000 - 5000 of EDP's on a promise. 
He's a very cool guy and ALWAYS gets me the best prices.

peace,

john

$560 for the EDP


At this price, I'd be interested too.

Probably the best way to do this would be to set up a "deal number" for the
purchase, and have everyone call the store and order it
using the "deal number" within a set time frame.



Just a thought,



Jim

Hi John,

You folks move quickly down there, eh?

Thanks for looking into that.

I'm in. 

I understand that shipping to Canada will be extra. Federal Express is the
only way to get anything reliably to this part of the Galaxy -- UPS DOES
NOT work well in Nova Scotia. Fedex also makes relating to Canada Customs a
snap for the shipper -- they just fill out a short, simple form, and after
that don't need to deal with it at all. I have a company FEDEX account that
I would like to use, if possible. But if that's too complicated, it isn't
necessary.

What about additional memory -- i.e., filling it to capacity? Is it
possible to get one equipped that way?

Thanks,

Howard

Count me in on the EDP bulk deal.
I'm in the UK which may affect things though I've noticed somebody else
from over here too.
I have a company that deals in some Music Technology, Steinberg,
Waldorf, Kawai etc. This may be useful in establishing links with
Gibson.

<<$560 for the EDP

$660 For both the EDP & Pedal + shipping (& tax if you're in NY)>>

oooh!--Count me in, too!
Let's keep the window-of-op open at least until early Nov; calling in to Alto
with a credit card and a "I'm-joining-the-EDP-bulk-purchase" password, with
shipment held until the agreed-upon closing date, makes sense to me...now, is
that for an unexpanded EDP??

Am I correct that these are not maxed out edps? I don't think that they come
from the factory fully loaded. Still seems a great price though. My credit
card is ready to go.

I've already heard from one list member so it's time to think about the 
logistics of this...

I guess that the best way to do this would be to get a list of the names 
& addresses etc. of everyone that wants one and to give it to the folks 
at the store - then leave to each person to call them with thier Credit 
Card numbers & shipping preference etc. Once they have a bunch of hard & 
fast, "cash on the barrelhead" orders they'll call Gibson and do the deal.

I'm open to other ideas if you have any.

Thanks,

John

Howdy . . . 

	There have been two or three attempts to begin threads which
received no list 
	replies. I did get some offline comments, but would have liked to
see more of 
	the group's opinions... I'll give it one more try.



I'm with Miko on this one . . . I think that one of the cool things about
this list is that there is a lot of potential for discussion of creative
process issues  - - there are a of of creative people here . . . but
seemingly gear seems to be more exciting than music? Hopefully, I'm mistaken
and it's just that people find it difficult to discuss this sort of thing:
more of the doers than the theoriticians.

For me, I guess it's the same kind of process (though slightly different
aspects of it) as writing. A lot of it comes down to accepting what one
likes, yet being able to have a somewhat objective perception as to what
works, what doesn't and what I'd like to change. In other words, examination
and reexamination of strategies and vocabularies. 

Often I try to approach different situations with different mindsets. Some
bands/situtations get the full McGilla (effects/loopers, etc.), some get a
different set of parameters (say bass and amp only). I take this strategy
from Stravinsky's idea of "freedom being in small box" . . . which I
interpret as finding more freedom in a finite set of variables than one one
does from "complete freedom," where there are "no" parameters. I tend to
like composers that use finite rules for certain pieces (Stravinsky as
noted, Webern, etc.) so I try to bring a little bit of this sensibility to
the table during some of the improv situations that I get involver in. Some
might say that this sort of thing verges on NOT BEING free improv. Also, of
course, there are many improvisors who take the exact opposite tact: I feel
that Miles Davis always sounded about the same, it was his choice of
contexts that changed.

darn.  beat to the punch.  i just got back from Bananas at Large w/ a group
quote of $680 for Plex w/ 4 meg and footpedal.  Alan Rosen, the fellow i
work with there, is still checking on whether the volume could bring the
price down a bit more, and will get back to me by Monday.  he can take
individual credit card orders on the deal, & ship directly to each
purchaser.  

i'm not claiming this to be better than the Alto Music deal, but told Alan
i would extend the offer.

Nice thought... I might do well to assess the difference between what I 
personally like w/what I'm actually capable of doing. Taking better stock of my 
"tools" (Derek Bailey's term which IMO is a collection of basic and extended 
techniques for improvising) and treating them more formally.

Compositionally I've found that there are people who just rage with their own 
style and *still* manage to sound conceptual, indulgent soloing etc... Then 
there are people who don't really solo or have "trademark" sounds and sound 
conceptual right out of the gate with a seemingly well thought out progression 
of ideas. This intrigues me and seems to function more artistically for me. 
While I love to solo and be a "guitar guy" I want to find a broader approach 
which has more musicality and artistic merit. (Without losing the soloing of 
course! 8->)

Embarrassingly, this sounds a little intimidating to me. If I was actually 
playing more often with a larger variety of people, maybe it would be different.
Again... food for thought.

John Zorn's game theory described in Bailey's book sound very interesting to me.
Is that the sort of thing you're talking about? Coming up with arbitrary 
contexts which define various moments during an improv?

One last note/question: I keep hearing the non-idiomatic banner being waved and 
wonder just how removed from an idiom you have to be to have people not dis you 
for your references? E.g.. Rock grandiosity and tone; Jazz chords and voicing; 
Blues; Drum styles and grooves...

Thanks for the comments Stig...

Hi,

	I just bought a Vortex and a Jamman for $300 over the net. This seemed like
an almost shadily good deal indeed (is it?) since I had recently seen them
going for more than that individually, but after fingering the seller's
email and talking to him on the phone, I decided that it was as safe as any
used gear deal I had done over the net and went ahead with it.

	So now I am waiting for UPS to show up with my potential bundle of COD
rage/joy (depending in whether everything works out or not), so that I can
join in the looping madness.

	However, the JamMan has only 8 seconds of memory. I understand that the
type of memory it uses can be difficult/expensive to obtain. Can anyone
recommend a source? Are they even still available anywhere?

Thanks,

Jonathan El-Bizri

RE: Re: Recordings..turns into loops with variation

Hi, thanks for the input on 'treated' loops. Yesterday night I recorded a
prepared loop parallel on three different tracks and just moving the faders
around created some eerie minimalistic motion...

I'm just listening to a recording called 'Tango & Company' (on
JazzHausMusik / North County) by Henning Berg (tb) & John Taylor (p). They
are doing improvisations with an interactive computer program by Henning
that is being fed by mike-to-midi and a midi grand piano. They can make
'tango' (as it is called) respond to their input in differnet ways (it can
build loops!) and playback stuff via midi/synths etc.

BTW, I heard (trombonist) George Lewis is developing things in a similar
direction - anyone knows more?

Best, Andreas

P.S.: other current listening: Louis Sclavis Acoustic Quartet, Irvine
Arditti Recital for Violin (Solo, has some Fernyhough on it - thanks for
the hint from here sometime ago) 

P.P.S.: I am currently reading things about Africa, just finished T.
Coraghessan Boyle (from LA) 'Water Music'. A quite pessimistic rewriting of
diarys by an original English researcher/discoverer/stupid kid, quite good.
SInce I travelled (and performed) quite a bit in Western Africa it stirrs
up a lot of memories and definetely influences my playing, but not in a
direct A-B fashion. I'm not polishing  my 'Highlife' guitar licks (hey, but
maybe I should?)

	I think that Zorn's methods are way beyond what I'm talking about.
As far as I can tell he uses this mostly for structuring larger groups like
Cobra (though maybe he used for his solo stuff too? Zorn experts help!). 

	What I'm talking about is making decisions about WHAT I bring to a
situation: Do I bring effects, do I bring looping gear, do I do prepared
bass stuff. Since I play 6-string bass, I also make decisions about HOW I
play: Do I perform mostly in more traditional bass roles, do I go for
chordal stuff, do I try for more horn-like activity, do I blend all three.
Then, of course, different people bring out different things and help you go
different places.

	Lately I've been rethinking this strategy a little as it seems that
some of the people who I look up to seem to basically do the same sort of
thing with everyone and they seem to be artistically successful doing that .
. . work in progress on this.


	Integrating improv into composition is, for me, similar except that
I tend to have more control of certain parameters (stylistic jumping off
points, etc.) and I tend to structure improv sections by using formal
considerations (reemergence of thematic material superimposed on the improv,
juxtapositions of different groupings, etc.)

Hi there

An update to Mark's post about the GR300 - his points are with >> 
marks, mine follow. If you want further info, I'll look out the original 
Roland 1980 brochure (I've got it somewhere !)

>> I had a GR300 and a GR808 controller (neck through the body, 
maple and walnut body and neck, gold hardware) in the early 1980s.
I've got a GR300 & a G202 (Strat style body, maple neck/fb & 2 
humbuckers) in front of me here.

>>  Here are the important things to understand about the GR300:

>> 1.  It is not programmable.  You can't jump from a flute patch to a 
cello patch with the press of a button.
Yep. Mind you, arguably you can't make the thing sound much like 
either anyway.

>> 2.  There is only one oscillator per string.  However, you can get 
the effect of two oscillators per string by mixing the sound of the 
string with the sound of the synth.
Well, there's a "Duet" mode. With the master pitch shift control, you 
can shift the base pitch around to get to concert tuning. You then 
have two sub-oscillators, A and B, which you can set to offsets from 
the master pitch. These can be latched or unlatched. You can also 
set a time for the pitch to move between the base pitch and the 
offset. So, you could have the master pitch at concert, then A as a 
lower fifth and B as a higher fifth and switch. Or, in Duet mode, you 
can have both the master pitch and one of A or B as well. 
Unfortunately, you can't control the levels between master and 
offset. Why would you want a master pitch shift ? So you can tune 
the guitar as high as possible for accurate tracking, then use this 
control to drop the pitch back to concert, of course !

>> 3.  You cannot select different waveforms for the oscillators.  Also, 
it only has an Attack control--not an ASDR.
Yep. The closest to envelope control you have is with the envelope 
modulator. The env mod sounds pretty much like a severe, but not 
hugely controllable auto-wah. Quite handy, but you never seem to be 
able to get the Rise/Fall time *just* right.

>> 4.  No MIDI.
Well, it *was* 1980...

>> 5.  The hex fuzz sounds cheesy--at least to my ears.
I didn't think it was cheesy - fizzy as hell, perhaps.

>> 6.  The knobs are large enough so that you can adjust them with 
your feet.
Although I wouldn't try it in the dark on a stage ! I saw someone 
(Mike Rutherford,  I think) with the blue box on a stand at waist 
height.

>> 7.  Before I bought the GR300, I had an ARP 2600.  The 2600 
had an infinite amount of patching possibilities, while the GR300 was 
very limited.  It was easy to get strange sounds out of the 2600, but 
difficult to get anything strange out of the GR300. <snip>
The difference between a patchable synth and a preset synth, 
although the GR300 is more limited than most in that it doesn't have 
selectable waveforms (so, no switching between Sin & Sawtooth 
waves, for example). But if you are playing a GR300, you'll get used 
to having to stuff the output through loads of effects to get weird 
sounds.

>> 8.  There is a slight amount of delay between plucking the string 
and hearing the GR300.  
I can honestly say I've never noticed any real delay between playing 
a string and the GR300 responding. I didn't think there was any, 
because the 300 isn't tracking as such - it's performing some 
analogue processing of the sounds fed to it by the guitar controller. 
Arguably, you could almost say it's an analogue VG8 (that'll get some 
posts in !) 

>> 9.  It's ruggedly housed in a thick metal box.  However, be careful 
of the bottom edges, they're sharp.  I sliced four of my fingertips on 
my left hand (only hours away from a gig) when I picked up the 
GR300 by the bottom edge of the box.
That's probably why it's got two nice big chrome handles on the top 
:-) !

>> 10.  Here's an example of how responsive the GR300 was: 
<snip>
And therein lies the rub. The guitars weren't that great. Because the 
GR300 is processing whatever the controller is feeding it, the guitar 
needs to be pretty good. If the guitar's got a weakness then the 300 
will just amplify it. The G202 is pretty lightweight so you don't get 
enough sustain from it. 

>> 11.  My GR808 was neck heavy.  I did not like this.  It made me 
use my left hand to "lift" the neck to my prefered playing angle.
Andy Summers said back in 1982 that he preferred the G303 (the 
"cheaper" one) to the G808 (the "expensive" one)

>> 12.  The patch cord that goes between the GR300 and the 
GR808 may or may not still be available.  If possible, buy as many as 
you can find.
Good idea - I'm always worrying that my patch lead will go (indeed, 
it's got a dry joint on the line for the lower E string, which leads to it 
cutting out intermittently).

>> 13.  The GR300 produced slightly less gain than the average 
guitar.

>> 14.  For additional sonic possibilities, Roland made a box that let 
you control two GR300s from one guitar.  Pat Metheny used this 
setup.  Again, this box may no longer be available.
This was called the US-2 (as opposed the US-20 Roland currently 
sells for the VG8 / GI10 etc. type lead). The adverts in the early '80's 
showed one of the guitarists from Wishbone Ash with a G505 
controlling a GR300 (the blue box) and a GR100 (a yellow box 
cut-down version of the 300) with the US-2 between them.

>> Bottom line:  I thought the GR300 was a one-trick pony that did its 
trick very well considering the limitations of technology in the early 
1980s.
My bottom line; the GR300 is a good bit of fun, but don't expect 
sonic miracles from it. Expect to use loads of effects with it. Use a 
foot volume pedal in the VCF pedal socket. Try it, and if you like the 
sounds (there really are only two with variations on the themes)  bear 
in mind that nothing else quite makes the same noise. If you can't get 
to try before you buy, listen to "The Sheltering Sky" on Discipline by 
King Crimson for the lead, "trumpet" sound, and "Don't Stand So 
Close to Me" (original version) by The Police for the chordal  "wash" 
sound (it's in the background of the instrumental break).

Phew, I'm all out of puff now...

Hope this lot helps, 

Tony Douglas

PS. Oh, and don't pay too much for it. As a guide, a GR100 and 
G33B bass guitar controller are going for a combined price of 200 UK 
pounds in this month's Sound on Sound. I paid 300 UK pounds for 
my GR300 & G202 controller three years ago.

Dear Legion,

	Hey man, the GR300 was an awesome box back in the day!  Yes, Fripp, and
Metheny used them, however there is a catch...  The GR-303 is only going to be
able to control the GR-300 or the GR-301 (I think was the designation of the
Yellow box, instead of the Blue one.)  It is an Analogue Synthesizer that has
some incredible sounds built in, but it will cost an arm and a leg to get it
MIDI'able.  Silly part is that it can be done....  It will be a little slower
in tracking than your Casio, however... it's sounds are a bit kinder
considering that the controller was built around the brain box, so there is a
little trade-off.  
	I also have a Casio MG-510 and love the beastie, but I have to say that the
best for tracking still goes to a Stepp or Synthaxe (both are extremely
difficult to find, and are really expensive)!  Like the Casio, the Guitar
controller itself was constructed/manufactured by wonderful factories of Fuji
Gen-Gakki, who have kindly produced the higher end of Ibanez, Yari, and
Bradley guitars for years...

	You may want to take a peak at either Paolo's site, or the
midiguitar@egroups.com/ site, run by a Mr. Christian.  You may be refered to a
few other sites, but all in all, if everything else fails check out
www.rolandus.com/ or www.rolandcorp.com/japan/

	Hope this helps!

	Tchus,

		Lee-ohki.

PS.  The equipment is a tool that is often misunderstood and just simply needs
to be explained out a little before and after the creative juices begin to
flow...  Took a little to get used to Linux and a few apps therein, but let me
tell you,...  don't know how I was doing without them for so long!  LOL!  

	L.

Confusing watching how others succeed. I've watched the guitarist in a *very* 
popular group right now (a fairly creative guy) which replaced me when I decided
to step back and limit my activity during my wife's pregnancy. I certainly would
have liked the high profile and full time playing status this would have 
afforded, but at the same time look at the extreme limitations on what's being 
played and realize that I never could have been happy doing that. I did enjoy 
working with the band leader a lot.

This is more of an academic curiousity than a guide to how I might play myself. 
I've just heard much discussion around the free improv and non-idiomatic music 
banner and wonder if it is about re-contextualization or just disassociation?  
I'm all for the Waring blender approach myself!

Yes, sometimes being too versatile can be a burden, I think someone spoke

Is there a site or repository of these particular signals and hats etc? I'd love

If you're not willing to risk cacaphony you'll never get to participate in

Wow, where is that bar in my community? (Santa Cruz...) I'd love to know of 
others in my region that would like to participate in something like this.

best,

Hey all,

Just a note about the G303 - it is possible to make up an adapter from the block plugs used
on the G202/303/505/808 controllers (and probably the GR33B bass too) to the round
plugs used on the GR50 and onwards. Someone who used to frequent a music shop near
me (Magnum Sound, Wishaw, Scotland) took the electronics out of a Roland guitar,
transplanted them into another guitar, and used said adapter to run a GR50 / U220 setup. I
never found out who it was (only saw the rack & guitar) so don't know if it was home-made
or a Roland product. I'd guess home-made, though.

- Tony Douglas

PS. The yellow box was the GR100. It lacked the string select and (I think) the
sub-oscillators of the GR300, but some reviews said it was more responsive than the blue
box. (That's from memory of reviews 15 years ago, mind !)

	I tend to think of it as trying to bring something special to the
plate everytime I play - - having discrete musical experiences. Maybe more
like a painter or an author (oops, there I go again). In terms of how I do
things with compoistional frameworks for improv, I like to have different
settngs for much the same reason. Also, I figure that my personality is
going to come through anyway, I just want the colors to be a little
different from time to time. 

	Option anxiety can be a problem . . . luckily I don't have the time
for it anymore :-) I just have to hone in a  couple of selected concepts.

Ahh, COBRA! If you haven't played, you're in for a, umm, treat. For those
of you all on the outside, COBRA is a performance game with a set of hand
signals, cards, and hats taht symbolize particular playing cues. Each
player (except a conductor) have an instrument and are on the lookout for
coues from other players. They, too, can offer cues. An uneasy equilibrium
develops after awhile, with most players polarizing into two camps, the
players and the directors. Bill Frissel is a player, Zorn a director. I'm a
player. My friend John is a player. Paul is a director. And so on. The
"music" is often unlistenable to any but the participants, but I've seen
some COBRA performances that were really cool. A Eugene bar used to have a
COBRA night once every two weeks. Fun, but ultimately I learned more about
traffic control than music and went back to other forms of live
improvisational music.

So far it looks like there are about 3-4 people who are interested. The 
question of getting units "maxxed" with 16 Mb has come up a couple of 
times but since they don't come that way from the factory I think it 
might be best for everyone to deal with the memory issue individually.  
Maybe someone wishes to create another RAM co-op...

It' s been my experience that music stores can never compete with places 
likes Chipmasters or Data Memory Systems in terms of price and I'm sure 
that there would be labor costs involved in having the store tech install 
the RAM in 5-10 EDPs.

As I mentioned before they will most likely  want to get paid before 
placing thier order to Gibson, since it would be a real drag to to be 
sitting on a stack of unsold EDP's which they have paid inbound frieght 
on. The idea is that the store can place one call to Gibson, get a single 
large shipment of units, (which would cost less in shipping fees than 
having them shipped individually) and they are guaranteed to be sold and 
move them out quickly with a minimum of hassle.

As far as I can tell Alto Music will be making about $60 per Echoplex & 
maybe $10 on the pedal (this is a guess but I'm probably close...) not 
much profit...even if we get to 10 orders

I will call the store & ask how they prefer to deal with payment/orders 
etc.

We can let this process loop for a while so people get a chance to peruse 
thier finances & think about it. Who knows? maybe someone else can get a 
better price!

email me privately with name address & tel. #  if you want in on this - 
It makes it easier to keep track of everyone since I'm a digest 
subscriber.

Loopers for all!

John

What about ordering an echoplex with 0 memory for those who would
only replace the factory installed 1MB or 256K simms with 4MB simms?

To clarify for the Alto music purchase we're talking about:

$560 for EDP w/ 4Mb RAM

$660 for EDP w/ 4Mb & pedal

+ shipping ( & tax if you are in NY state) no tax for out of state 
sales...

Also I'm interested in seeing what kind of price Bananas at Large will do 
on a large quantity.

ah the gearlust abounds...

Yeppo. What you need is a 30-pin, 4M SIMM, any speed, any parity. In PC
speak that means Mac or IBM compatible. We're easy. We like everybody.
All SIMM's welcome. We sell the piece you need for $25. It comes with an
instruction sheet for the uninitiated.

i saw nels cline last night and he was awesome. wowza!! that cat can play some
wild guitar. great concert. this was my 1st time ever seeing nels and i was
completely blown away. i know he did a little bit of looping a few times
during the show. anyone know what he was looping on? he had something with 3
or 4 footswitches on his amp that he would mess with by hand. i assumed he had
an eh but couldn't really get a good look. nels is awesome. people should
totally check out mike watt's contemplating the engine room. great disc.
excellent concert.

Does Gibson sell a zero Mb version? or less than 4Mb version? I doubt it, 
 but if they do that would be the way to go since I think we're all 
planning on dumping the 1Mb chips anyway.

Here are some quotes from JACK WRIGHT on free improvisation. I received   
them from the project4newmusic mailing list and thought they might be of   
some relevance to this discussion. Not being a "trained" "musician," I   
consider myself to be a free improvisor, as well as a looper, and, like   
John Cage, believe that all sounds have merit as music. It all depends on   
how you listen.

Jim Bailey

I now turn you over to Jack.

1995

This music is a relatively recent phenomenon of the last few decades
and is still practically unknown.  Most people seem to be puzzled by
it or have misconceptions, even fear.  All other forms of music,
including Jazz improvisation, have a tendency towards conscious
differentiation and identification of the player with the musical
choices made, that is, at least some structure (song and style) that
is decided upon that has an identity and meaning set apart from others
and given a priority.  Free improv tends on the other hand to dissolve
the importance of such priorities at the musical moment of choosing,
since all choices are valid and all standards of good music are put in
question, including that played moments ago.  Our limitations --
attachment to clinched formulas, our best ideas -- are what stand in
the way and we struggle against them.  Technical development on the
instrument in the traditional sense is optional, for some even
hindrance, to the extent it predisposes our judgment as to what is
musical.  A kind of musical insecurity is even good for improv.  A
careful and attentive choosing is involved but not as means to an end.
 Since choice can go any direction, this music tends toward an
exaggerated full ear-open listening to what is going on around you for
guidance; in fact since you do not identify with and defend your own
sound, you find yourself listening to your very own playing with
interest and surprise, reacting to it as you do to others'.  Free
improv opens the door to dissolution and immersion in sound and
silence, in which we hear a playful voice behind us always suggesting,
"why not this?" We find with surprise, given our previous experience
with music, that rather than resulting in a breakup into
individualized units, improv tends toward a whole since we have
nothing to go on except each other.  It is a music that fully reflects
a disillusionment with the fundamental impulse of previous musics to
organize and control nature, and for this reason cannot be expected to
advance its players in the so-called music world of career and
conquest with which such control is allied.  Free players are open to
being inspired by others regardless of experience or status; the true
teacher is the learner...  What I have described here is only the
empty form, the energy, not what we end up with.  What fills it and
gives the music its meaning and character is our individual struggle
with it and with ourselves.  This is a new music and has hardly begun
to be explored; it is what we make it.  The potential for transforming
our relation to music and to each other is not fully imaginable.


 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 ----------

October, 1996

Each free improvisation, and this pertains especially to the solo, is
a very particular, unique path, all laid out in advance.  However, we
do not know the way, and we are, some might say, hampered by the
deliberate loss of whatever one sense we should usually consider the
most reliable.  We are not allowed to see where we are going, that is
the only rule, so all the other, unaccustomed senses scramble to the
forefront.  We have our eyes (ears) closed as if their normal
configurations would surely mislead us; our feet or our nose will have
to do all that enormous work.  We might have the impression that we
can only witness what happens, that we have let the path take over; if
so then how could we be so highly engaged.  At any rate, we can only
feel our way, imperfectly of course, shifting from tense confusion to
relaxed and ecstatic awareness to the humiliation of finding ourselves
utterly lost.  There is not a single position that our consciousness
can take that is left out; the path covers the whole topography from
start to finish, that is, it certainly can. Even and especially our
lostness is right where we should be, hardly a consoling thought.
Only afterwards are we allowed to think we knew what we were doing,
even to know we were on a path at all.

Me, too, also w/ pedal. RAM is cheap and easy to find, so I suggest we just
get them as they come from the factory to keep things simple. Wish I could
afford to buy a pair! The idea of a "deal number" sounds like a good way to
do it.

				Tongue in Cheek...?

If you ask me, sure all music is trivial and boring by it self, especially
the so called "instrumental" work (mainly called instrumental music because
the instruments are doing most of the work).  I have found it very helpful
when doing these kind of performances to make sure there is a strong visual
element to the set.  I personally would (and have in the past) listened to
hours of totally useless thoughtless looping and jamming JUST because the
band A) had nice analog synths to look at B) had a nice old Fender Jaguar
or other sexy guitar C) had a cute girl singer or D) had all or some of
these elements mixed together.  Also if you don't happen to be good looking
you can always get some nice bubbly overhead projectors going and turn off
the lights.  However it must be said that I sat througha set by Sonic
Boom's EAR ONLY because he had an EMS Synthi AKS, an Oscar, and a Serge
Modular (so sometimes the quality of synths can offset the need to have
pretty 16m projections out the wazzoo)  

Dain
My band has A and B but we haven't really gotten around to C yet, still
looking though.

Well, I don't know that it's a matter of preference past how one feels at a
given moment or series of moments, actually.  I think most of the ways in
which we address allegedly non-structured content may have a lot more to do
with our expectations of that content, than the content itself.

As far as the ProjeCKt shows are concerned, though... I went to the one at
the House of Blues/LA last February, thanks to a fine fellow from AZ from
the Elephant Talk n'letter who had an extra ticket and dropped it off on the
way to the Ventura shows.  I was prepared in some regard by the reactions
from people on that n'letter that had gone before:

* Those who expected something from the music that didn't happen (flaming
Frippian solos, KC material from the 70's, ad nauseam) were very, very
disappointed, and primarily chose Fripp as their whipping boy, though their
comments tended to be less precise on the topic of the music itself, with
the exception of the "cheesy FM piano patch Fripp used to play THRAK".

* Those who went Without Expectations, and withheld judgement until they'd
heard entire works, were far, far less disappointed, but in general tended
to discuss the material a lot less than the angry ones did.

I had already heard a lot of the comments about the material by the time I
had my ticket to see them; and, in a similar fashion to my filtering of TV
News, knew I had to completely dispose of all the good AND bad opinions if I
was going to be able to assess all this stuff for Myself.

I liked the performance, and I believe that it was because I didn't attempt
to create a framework for the material before I knew what it was.  This is a
common failing of most folks going into the Unknown (as far as perceived at
least), and not one I've avoided succumbing to, either.  I just didn't
expect RF or anyone else to play What I Want Them To Play.

And, I didn't feel ripped off in any way.  I laughed at the execution of
THRAK in that manner, in a good way.  It should be evident that playing such
a work Over and Over and Over Again can be a real strain; and given new KC
fans' tendency to want replays of favorite pieces, I wondered if this wasn't
a way of being able to make fun of it all without being mean.  It was
obvious they were having a good time with all of the work.

And I ended up having a good time watching and listening to them too.  It
was a good example of a collaborative approach to performance.  Is it
possible that RF et al wanted this very effect to experiment with?  Perhaps
so...!

So, does improvisational work - either participating or listening to it -
say more about us, or about our feelings about it?

Ok - I spoke with John at Alto Music here's the deal. 

So far it looks like there will be about 12 units, maybe more...

If you want to get one or more EDP's with or without a pedal do the 
following:

1. Call Alto Music @ (914) 692-6922 10-6pm Monday through Saturday and 
ask for John.
Tell him you're calling about ordering an Echoplex as part of the Loopers 
Delight Internet mailing list - he's not hip to the listserv thing so be 
sure to mention Echoplex & internet in the same sentence and he'll know 
what your calling about.

2 Give him your order info - i.e. How many you want, pedal or not, 
address CC#, shipping preference etc.

NOTE: while they do some mail order they are not setup like Musicians 
Friend etc, in that they can say immediately what your freight will be.  
You can request that they call you with the exact amount of shipping once 
they have determined it. Rest assured that he's a straight up guy & there 
won't be any gouging on shipping fees.

3. Be patient, think Buddha like thoughts, or if you're really advanced, 
no thoughts at all.
The units are not in stock. Once he gets a bunch of orders, he'll place 
an order with Gibson. When he receives the units they will be sent to you 
according to your instructions. The time between when he places the order 
& when they arrive is dependent on Gibson, UPS, acts of God, etc. If 
Gibson is to be believed regarding stock & turnaround time, I'd guess 
that everyone will have their units in 2-3 weeks.
The prices are:

$560 for EDP w/ 4Mb RAM

$660 for EDP w/ 4Mb & pedal

+ shipping ( & tax if you are in NY state) no tax for out of state 
sales...

We didn't discuss a time limit on this offer but I'm sure as long as 
people are ordering a moderate amount the price will be good for a couple 
of weeks - barring any price changes from Gibson/Oberheim of course.


Alright, Let the feeding frenzy begin!

peace,
JMW

There seems to be some interest in this. I'll sniff around a bit and post
what I find. I learned about COBRA by hangung with folks in the music dept
ofthe university I was working at.

I'd like to join in too, with the footswitch.  One complication:  I live 
in Japan, although luckily I can write a personal check in USD.  What 
would the shipping cost be?  (Please reply privately)

I find this whole thread, with its "COBRA" and "OPTION ANXIETY" aspects,
oddly coincidental with my current activities!

I'm a percussionist/ looper etc. and I'm participating in a new version
of the Cobra game piece in Berlin, Germany. This version is called the
"Dirty Dozen" because it involves 12 players, 3 groups of 2 (=6)
rhythmatists and 3 groups of 2 (=6) melodiacs. The whole thing is based
around Goethe's color circle, the rhythm groups being the primary colors
(red, blue, yellow), the melody groups being the intermediates (purple,
green, orange). Each groups develops 2 themes which have to be
compatible depending on their position in the circle (e.g. green melody
fits with blue and yellow rhythm groups). From there it just gets more
complex! Roulette boards, monetary "credits", playing cards, hand
signals, a variety of "purchasable" positions such as berserkers,
directors, arseholes (seriously), harikirist, bartender are all
involved. All sorts of other rules are involved, which are too tedious
to go into here - in fact the "instruction manual" is about 6 pages
long! In many ways, this is the "German" ;-) version of Cobra, with no
offense to the German members of the list ...

The problem I'm currently trying to deal with, is that I really don't
know how to incorporate my "loopy electro-stuff" into this already
complex gig. I was offered a rhythm job where I'm to counteract the
normal trap set drummer with elctro-processed rhythms. Oh man, after two
practices of very intense changes and color theme changes etc. - on top
of which I'm trying to make loops, change fx patches and play live (all
on the fly) - I've noticed it's a heck-of-alotta stress! :-(

Talk about OPTION ANXIETY!

I'm actually a drum set player originally but unfortunately this is not
my "job description" at this gig. I think I really have to chime in with
what's been said here - my current feeling is that this "Dirty Dozen"
gig is a little too much stress and too little fun. I agree that it's
wise to concentrate more of one's energy on just a few concepts.

Sorry about the very extended post - I'm just feeling a little
exasperated ...

Mr. Rob

im listening to this as i write and all i can think is "how long would it take
5 monkeys to re-create this music?" i dont want to think this, mind you, but
that is what keeps going through my head. is this the free improv that has
been discussed over the past few days? i can see in some sense that as a
player this could be interesting but as a listener its a bit rough for me to
get behind. but i must admit, this gives me some idea as to what those (un-
lucky?) folks whom  i have listen to my music must go through. this whole
concept of improv is a worthy topic which i hope to learn more about. for now
i am hipplessly shallow but with ears wide open.............<(*?*)> michael

J.

lucky dog (or unfortunate indidividual, depending on whether you get your
goodies or not)--I paid about $ 450 for those units and was pretty pleased
to get them for that  ;)

Visionsoft ( 408.626.2633) ( visionsoft.com)  was the cheapest source of the
upgrade  70  ns ZIP's--fast shippers, too.

part #14PGZP7     ask for the ones for the Jamman--they know what they are

$7.95 each (you need 4) and they charged me $7 for freight--$39 total.

by the way, they don't do RAM upgrade chips for laptops, but Chip Merchants
(800.426.6375) do--just ordered 32 MEG EDO DRAM for my new Toshiba--$62 2
day FED EXed to my door--about 40% less than the next best price!

BTW, be careful when you pull the screws from the case . . . the screws look
like Phillips heads, but they're different enuf so that you can strip them
easily l . . .  like I did

does this guy have any $100 Moog Rogues he wants to part with?

drone on~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Tom

Oh yeah, if anybody's interested in COBRA I'll explain the whole thing at
one of these shows.  I've played it about 3 times and it's loads of fun.

(yeah, yeah, but I call it "incentive"...)

Personally, I don't think you should be too shy about speaking your mind
about the effectiveness of these dubious rules/non-rules regarding free
improvisation.
As I read these postings I found myself thinking:- 
"And you expect people to listen to this? 
Why not let a bunch of kids jump on your instruments? 
They have fewer preconceptions than us adults.  
I've nothing against new music ideas but lets have ideas that work, (i
know your going to say I'm being judgemental) but I function on the
premise that there IS good music and bad music.

Hi guys,
Do you know if Alto music will ship EDP's overseas or do we
non-Americans have to cut our own deal?

I perform fairly regularly at the Knit (aka sweatshop of the 
avante-garde) & have often wondered the same thing - at others gigs as 
well my own. Usually this comes about because I'm trying to analyse the 
music in terms of the tradition within which I was taught, namely 
Contemporary Classical Western harmony/rhythm &  "Standards" oriented 
jazz theory.

It's an interesting phenomena - since "anything goes" improv (not the 
case always, I know,  as there are often structures superimposed) is 
really a new form of music & would seem to require a new theory. I guess 
it comes down to "Where am I listening from?" If I'm coming from the "no 
parallel 5ths","ii-V-I" "sonata form" view point I'm sure to drive myself 
crazy. Of course, I don't listen to rock bands from the perspective of 
North Indian Classical music - although it would be an interesting (but 
probably disappointing) experiment!

I've come to the personal conclusion that "free music" requires "free 
listening", which for me comes directly from my experience with 
meditation. I consider it extremely valuable whether playing or listening.

There's lots of Zen epithets that could be used to describe it: "Just 
Sit", "just don't know" or my personal favorite "shut the f*ck up & 
listen!!"
Seriously though - being able to just hear sounds as they occur and 
trusting the sounds that you choose as a player has changed they way that 
I relate to much of the "free" music that I hear & perform.

well that's enough of that...

peace,

john

For me, it is easier to listen to free music if I know the 'noise' being
made isn't just a limitation of of the performers involved. In other words,
I can enjoy Thrakattak because I respect what the muscians involved are
capable of. I guess some muscians have the option to make 'noise'- for some
that is all they can do.
To me, 'free improv' is more than making 'monkey music'. When skilled
musicians get together and play freely, it certainly may be easy to create
'noise', but for me the trick is to balance that with what I know and like
about harmony, melody and rhythm. Hopefully the end result (musical noise?)
will be based more on creativity and skill than 'look how avant and deep I
can be-dig?'.

I typed  that while smiling. I did not intend to sound ugly. Typing ideas is tough for
me, hell my son says that I type slower than Stephen Hawkings.

 I have to agree with the monkees bit somewhat but I do like the textural, non-linear
feel to free improve somtimes.

onward through the fog,

Jeff

| 
| I find this whole thread, with its "COBRA" and "OPTION ANXIETY" aspects,
| oddly coincidental with my current activities!
| 
| I'm a percussionist/ looper etc. and I'm participating in a new version
| of the Cobra game piece in Berlin, Germany. This version is called the
| "Dirty Dozen" because it involves 12 players, 3 groups of 2 (=6)
| rhythmatists and 3 groups of 2 (=6) melodiacs. The whole thing is based
| around Goethe's color circle, the rhythm groups being the primary colors
| (red, blue, yellow), the melody groups being the intermediates (purple,
| green, orange). Each groups develops 2 themes which have to be
| compatible depending on their position in the circle (e.g. green melody
| fits with blue and yellow rhythm groups). From there it just gets more
| complex! Roulette boards, monetary "credits", playing cards, hand
| signals, a variety of "purchasable" positions such as berserkers,
| directors, arseholes (seriously), harikirist, bartender are all
| involved. All sorts of other rules are involved, which are too tedious
| to go into here - in fact the "instruction manual" is about 6 pages
| long! In many ways, this is the "German" ;-) version of Cobra, with no
| offense to the German members of the list ...
| 
| The problem I'm currently trying to deal with, is that I really don't
| know how to incorporate my "loopy electro-stuff" into this already
| complex gig. I was offered a rhythm job where I'm to counteract the
| normal trap set drummer with elctro-processed rhythms. Oh man, after two
| practices of very intense changes and color theme changes etc. - on top
| of which I'm trying to make loops, change fx patches and play live (all
| on the fly) - I've noticed it's a heck-of-alotta stress! :-(
| 
| Talk about OPTION ANXIETY!
| 
| I'm actually a drum set player originally but unfortunately this is not
| my "job description" at this gig. I think I really have to chime in with
| what's been said here - my current feeling is that this "Dirty Dozen"
| gig is a little too much stress and too little fun. I agree that it's
| wise to concentrate more of one's energy on just a few concepts.
| 
| Sorry about the very extended post - I'm just feeling a little
| exasperated ...

this may be a crass oversimplification: having read the bio blurb on the the
site of the branca concert, i thought, this sounds like it might be wonderful.
if i lived nearby i would have plonked down some hard earned money and gone to
the show. as it is, my only investment was time and the further ailienation of
my darling wife ("turn that down, the baby is trying to sleep") perhaps she
thought it was me playing. my point is this, had i paid, i would have been
dissapointed, but as a freebee, it was a great ear-opener. i did say this was
a crass oversimplification. perhaps this is a whole other can of worms.
dont take me wrong, this is not bragging, but when i listen to others music i
want to hear things, sounds, textures,words that i do not create. i like to
walk away thinking" i wish i could do that". but hearing random screaming,
atonal guitar washes, bells and gongs and a very slack sounding drum my mind
goes to the monkey music mode. i dont eat stewed tomatoes, but i would never
say they are good or bad. maybe im just upset with the passing of frankie
yankovitch, king of the polka, and am awaiting mr. goodmans loop of the week
dedicated to him.........enuf...........michael

    He (Nels Cline) is excellent. If the diversity of his recorded materiel is any
example. I'd really like to see him live. I seriously doubt he'll ever show up in
Texas.
                                                                    Cheers, James

All I heard was random and unintelligible yelling.  Kind of like one of the
32 tracks from a Laurie Anderson show.  No, it wasn't THAT coherent.

I ended up being reminded all too well of NYC "Art" world, when I was
growing up in the state across the river from it, and a yahoo who would have
himself crucified on various objects, once a VW bug's hood.  This was
actually in the Museum of Modern Art as an installation, until the fool had
lost enough blood to require a hospital stay.

All the time, the patrons of this Real Gone Crapola would stand around,
pretending they all "get it", sipping their whatevers but never directly
discussing the piece, lest they reveal that they don't really know what the
hell is going on, but they sure paid for it.

Don't get me wrong, now - I'm a diehard Warhol enthusiast, and I really
appreciate the relative openness of the Art scene in NYC (compared to LA,
which more than deserves another earthquake).  I'll also admit that my first
viewing of DNA made me wish I had their instruments, which they seemed to be
abusing greatly at the time.

But I had to wonder what kind of smack people have gotten into, when I hear
what appeared to be a total waste of bandwidth like last night.  At least it
wasn't at OUR expense.  Then I'd be furious.  Instead, I just hit the 'X' on
the upper-right corner of the window, and went back to trying to figure out
whom to dedicate the LOTW to.

Yes, folks, I may actually be forced by circumstance to dedicate the bloody
thing to Frankie Yankovik.  I'm still choking on the idea though, and
remembering the Gary Larsen cartoon:

	"Welcome to Heaven - Here's your harp."
	"Welcome to Hell - Here's your accordion."

[rolling eyes]  Oh, the pain, the pain....

Back in the late 60's, when I was studying painting, a smart friend dropped a
one-liner about "ART" on me that's proved  enlightening and useful ever since,
at least when applied to my own reactions:

                             "Good art generates more art"

Dear friends

It would be cool if you made up a private newsgroup at for example 
http://www.egroups.com/listman?method=display_startnewlist
and make a dayly or whathever post here with a link to the _EDP group
buy lobby_ 

because I'm not sure that all those transactions etc... is for any
interest for the "no budjet" loopers on the list.

Rob,

where & when are you performing, who's gig is it? I know that Butch Morris
did a version of his 'conducted improv'-orchestra called 'Berlin
Scyscraper' last year at the 'Podewil'...but this sounds different.

I was in my favorite guitar store the other day, and
saw ye olde Boomerang at $349 for 1 min. I haven't
seen 'em this cheap before, and have been thinking of
asking Santa for one. He's also got the 4 min. for
$449.

Isn't the upgrade with SIMM's? Or am I off me rocker?

Anyway, The place is called Guitar Crazy, in
Portland, OR. 503-238-4487 ask for Bob.

Actually, I have seen cd's of just this - kids being handed instruments or
given the most rudimentary instruction and then let loose, this being the
logical extension of the idea of getting to a "pure source", rather than
letting too much technique or schooling interfere with your connection to the
muse. The only recordings of that sort  I have heard so far are the Kids of
Whitney High "Special Music for Special Kids" and the Shaggs "Shaggs Own
Thing" albums, both on Rounder. The first being a group of developmentally-
challenged kids being taught the basics of music theory and songwriting and
then set to creating thier own songs, the second being a group of three teen
sisters writing thier own rock album back in the mid 60's, when they were
scarcely able to play thier instruments... both projects interesting, but not
what I'd call daily listening. 

<< I've nothing against new music ideas but lets have ideas that work, (i
 know your going to say I'm being judgemental) but I function on the

Yes, but that's still an individual choice. I can't stand some of the more
"out" jazz my best friend listens to, and he likewise can't stand a lot of the
80's pop that clutters my collection. Does that mean that out jazz or 80's pop
are bad? Or good? or is it up to the individual?

Ahhh, but bad art also generates more art, both by people who say "that's not

I agree with your last sentence.   Just as there is good rock and bad rock,
good jazz and bad jazz, etc. there is also good free improv and bad free
improv.

Good free improv has a conversation going on between two or more musicians
(which is why, I think, it is a tough assignment to do good free improv
solo because you're basically talking to yourself).   If you think about
it, conversations in real life are never pre-planned.  I do not have a 
script that I read from and memorize before I talk to you and I bet you
do not have one either before you talk to me.   Good free improv is like
good conversation.

I guess its no coincidence that when I hear free improv I don't like, it
sounds like at least one person is not listening to the other(s).

Cheers,
Paolo

See, this is an extremely problematic issue for me.  It smacks of what
I'd call the emperor's new clothes syndrome -- the music in quesiton is
judged more on the pedigree of the players than on the actual sound
that's produced.  

At this point in time, I've got very little patience for music that
needs some sort of extra-musical justification in order to have it hold
up -- be it the intellecual conceptualism behind an experimental project
that doesn't hold up on its own, or the straight-ahead pedigree that
gives a jazz player the licence to then play "out" and not be chastized
by his peers, or the talk of "breakbeat science" and "progression"
that's used to pass of the profoundly stiff and boring sounds of a lot
of modern drum & bass.

Not meant as a flame to anyone; maybe I'll see the light later on.  But
I find it awfully frustrating when people find themselves obligated to
give music a certain amount of automatic regard simply by virtue of
associations of any kind.  It's *sound*, for crying out loud!  What does
it *sound* like?!

A very important point that applies to all other styles as well !!!! Sit in
at a bebop jam-session, start you solo with a clearly stated rhythmic

i like monkeys. i like dwarfs. i especially like dogs.
i think a band that had all three groups represented, equally or
unequally, wolud:

    1) be entertaining
    2) be a mess to clean up after
    3) make a boatload of $
    4) be horrible to listen to

"would that be good or bad" doesn't matter, it would kick ass.

whatever,

Unfortunately you did shock him. John is a man who deserves more reward than he
receives and humbly continues to keep the torch of new music afire. He has also
been pivotal for me and my close friends and will continue to be so. All
members of this list need to know who this man is.

The key words in my post were 'for me'. I know that lots of people can
appreciate music on all levels no matter who performs it. For some reason, I
can't. Also, with 20 years of schooled guitar and music studying, it is hard
for me to not listen to the music, and try to figure out where it came from.
If I know someone's body of work, for me, I seem to appreciate the music
more in context. I am also more liable to sit there and listen to it, and
not write it off as 'noise showcasing the limitations of the performer'. For
that reason, I got into experimental music by way of jazz and rock. There
were musicians I studied, and I bought their recordings- then they went all
'weird' on me, and I liked it.

Sometimes I hear something and I don't know if I think it is good. I have to
look outside the music for help in this area. How does this fit in with the
artist's body of work? Is this CD just a contractual obligation for the
artist, consisting of outtakes, etc? Do I have any evidence that the artist
has studied music and their instrument? Does it influence my own studies? Do
I think this way to justify those music comp classes I took, and the endless
hours of lessons?
I can't seem to listen to stuff these days with entirely fresh ears-kinda
like an ad exec that looks at commercials.
Well the good thing is that there is all types out there, and we can
appreciate the way we each view experimental music without thinking it is
'wrong'.

I've been wondering if the back & forth posts would get to be a bit much 
for the list.
Wherever possible I've tried to keep the emails private & hopefully 
succint without leaving out anything important. Apologies for any 
inconvenience.

Anyway the info is out there - if anyone wants to buy one all you gotta 
do is call.

If you need the contact onfo please email me privately.

i spent the day figuring out how to use my 5 sec. sampler on my
Q2(Alesis)......
i also figured out how to get my puter to feed sounds to the Q2.......
all of this sillyness then is fed to my ever so hungry "rang"......
needless to say, a new addiction! i have real audio on my puter and was
wondering where i might find "sounds" on the net? any direction would be most
wonderful.........thanks.........michael (just another monkey looking for
noise)

I love this comparison, but I think there is more to it. I even had the
impression that musical comunication is unnecessary or "distracting" once
all members listen to the same inspiration source.

Its really like in a good conversation: you end up saying things you did
not know before.

I know it's a stretch, but you brought up Steve Reich . . .

I'm looking for two recordings, one of La Monte Young's "Second Dream" and
one of Stockhausen's "Konkrete". If anyone has a spare lying around, I'd be
happy to let you extort me for it. Thanks,

Can someone look on the back of their EDP to see if it's got the
110/220 voltage selection switch on the back.
This is an issue for we 'foreigners' who need 240 volts 50/60 hz
thanks

Ok, this may seem like comparing oranges & apples but.... I'm trying to 
choose between these. Does anyone have any comments regarding just the 
parts you can compare? Like the basic guitar timbre processing of the 
VG-8(or the synthesis there of?) I would especially like to hear from 
you folks who loop with a VG-8. Stuff like how you configure your loop 
setup w/ the unit. As a blossiming Guitar player/looper, I am ready to 
move up from my lowly SE-50 to a "real" guitar processor. I use a GR-50 
also and get into adding a little something special to that core analog 
sound from my STRAT. That core sound is what impressed me about the 
Digitech 2112. On the other hand I like synthesized sound too so here 
lies my problem. Are the various pickup config patches on the VG 
reasonably comparable to the 'ol analog ways?
Thanks, -Dennis

yep, it sure does. (designed it meself....)  The 110 setting will also work
fine down at 100V for Japan. 50/60hz doesn't matter.

you can get La Monte Young's second dream "brass ensemble" through
Grammovision.  Or go to...
http://www.virtulink.com/mela/MAIN.HTM
and you just may be able to get ahold of the original.

About Stockhausen, was that supposed to be Kontakte? For i do have that
also.

What's wrong with the SE-50? I've been using one for years and have always
been happy with it's performance and it's ease of use. And unlike some of the
guitar-specific boxes I've used, the SE-50 can be used on damn near anything
and still sound good. What makes this one not a "real" guitar processor?

Jeff,

Thanks so much for your quick response. I hadn't found that link to the
MELA foundation, and it looks useful. However, they don't sell the
recording of the 'Second Dream'. Grammavision is distributed by Rykodisc,
and they list La Monte Young as one of their artists, but don't currently
have anything in their catalog by him. So . . . dead end.

The Stockhausen I was referring to is fully titled, "Konkrete und
Electronische Musik". It's the one with 'Gesange der Junglinge' on it. It
was originally on the Stockhausen label. Actually, I am just looking for a
recording of that piece, so if you know of somewhere else . . .

Again, thanks for the effort.

Aden

i would agree here up to a point... not long ago i was listening to fripp's
"that which passes" when a (non-musician) friend walked in.. she asked "whats
that, keyboard?" and i said "no, its just one guitar"... she said "wow,
hmmmm... if it was keyboard would you be listening to this?"... 

hmmm.. if someone made music *exactly* like fripp's soundscape series (and
there was no fripp) using multitracked keyboards... would you buy it? i dont
think i would (well, at least i wouldnt actively seek it out)... but while it
may seem a bit more logical making this sort of music using *all* the
technology available, i think the limits imposed by just having one guitar
*does* give it some sort of extra-musical justification (just dont ask me to
pin it down). sometimes knowing the setup/process/players can turn the sound
into a more satisfying thing or kill it completely for me, other times it just
doesnt matter (i once heard this amazing piece that turned out to be a few
contact mikes on some telephone lines in the desert -- i was kind of bummed
that no-one was actually *playing* but still very much enjoyed it)

Maybe I haven't played with the presets enough. Don't get me wrong, I 
love my SE. In fact I'm just going to move it over to my DX-7. I never 
even imagined getting rid of it.Maybe you have some patches that would 
make me reconsider? As far as the 2112 was concerned I was really 
impressed with the tube preamplification, not to mention the dual 
processor which added to the amount of drool I experienced whilst 
testing that baby. Again, I never really aaltered the SE's patches other 
than a little noise suppression. I've only been playing guitar for as 
long as I've owned the SE which is almost a year in addition to learning 
MIDI so that hasn't left much mental space for redesigning patches. I 
would definately be interested if you came up with anything sweet. Let 
me know.
Thanks, -D

Didn't mean to suggest a definitive, or exclusive, summing-up of all
possibilities--I guess my point is that, at whatever stage one finds oneself,
for whatever reason, one useful test of artistic validity is whether or not
the experience inspires you to action...again, for whatever reason...maybe it
simply makes you feel briefly clearheaded; Paul Klee once described his own
state of active grace thus: 
                  "...a thousand questions disappear, as if answered."
At least for those of us plagued to make things, I find this a more
interesting experience than asking "But, is it any good?" Plus an active
response has the virtue of being something you just observe in yourself,
rather than being something to mull over!

I had an email contact with John a week or two ago (to promote my CD). I told 
him about this list and about the Looper's Delight CDs. He was interested and 
wanted to have copies. I suggested to him to maybe dedicate a complete 'new 
sounds' evening to looping music. We'll see.

Music should evoke an emotional response ...
failing this, some intellectual interest can suffice, just.
After all that's why they invented Algebra.

Who cares how it got there - as long as it sounds good, impro or not.

thanks Kim for checking the back of your EDP

Wellllllllll, there are a few ways that you can look at both free playing and the
'if this was a keyboard, would you be listening to it?' questions.

I have listened to a lot of both, and have played a lot of both, and I think that
both have value for there instructional value alone.  Now you know a bunch of other
things that you can do on guitar.  Now I can make some wacked out sounds, with no
effects save a little distortion, my fingers, and a pick.

Consider them a theory class.

Hi list,

due to a message that David Talento sent to the digital hell list, I have
heard from this effort of doing a group purchase of EPDs. I would like to
know whether it would be possible to someone living in Europe to
participate.

Cheers

Joerg

I am fascinated by this idea.  How do I find more details?  
Specifically, I'm looking for a list of "rules of play", if that's the 
correct term.

John Schaeffer, he is.  I love that guy.  When I lived in New York I listened avidly to his shows in WNYC, for years.  I really miss him in the Bay Area, as there's nothing really like him.

He's one cool dude.  I visited NY this past month and heard one of his shows where he'd been to a music festival in London's City, and he had a tape recorder, walking around everywhere recording everything, whispering who that was doing what.  He made it all that more interesting.

Miss you, John.

Despite the stream of concepts and formal contructs which can help the execution
(no pun intended, but some may like that thought!) of free improv, this zen idea
strikes at the heart of free improv's emotional and spiritual validity for me.

After 36 years as a player in very many structured cover and original groups, 
I've become progressively less able to stay *attached* to music which has to be 
practiced and remembered to be enjoyed (or not) again. 

It's a great accomplishment and joy to present well thought out and polished 
performances, but it's getting harder and harder to stay committed to that. 
(It's true that there's plenty of practice on the technical aspects of ones 
playing as well as one's rig to support free-improv successfully as well.)

I've found with free-improv there's certainly the chance that the music could be
dreck, but often enought to give me faith, the music is startling, sublime and 
surprising... (It's usually during repeated listens to tapes when I realize just
how important this playing is to me...)

Hmmmm....

If I may be as bold to respond with an oberservation and a few opinions.

Too much analysis and inspection and too little submission to what the music
youre listening to actually needs to be "heard" effectively.

Ive come to find Influences, patterns or lessons are all meant to be absorbed
and forgetten or moreover used as vehicles as opposed to destinations.

Plus there are a bizillion ways for anyone to pick from to get from point A to
Point B musically speaking of course. Though music and life and its living have
many and often interesting parallels and correlations.

If you are focused on which way is "better" than another or put emphasis on the
processes you and or others employ, you'd spend a lifetime of analysis not ever
really hearing much music(s) or allowing any music to come into you as a
musician.

We all have influences and need to lose them or moreover be able to work with
them like a modular piece of hardware without ever letting them become
deriviative as opposed to evocative.

I dont think we have to have our predilections or "learning" overtake and rule
our musical vision or reception of music(s). They become obstacles that way.

Also that stuff/junk/process/technique/learning/analysis can be either for
clairty or for confusion and easily slip into one aspect or another in a
heartbeat where they become indistinguishable.

Also, "like and dislike" are mostly meaningless as well as process and/or
technique in the overall picture.

IMHO its the knowing/awareness of the "when and where" to let go of all of that
junk that is crucial to anyone who is involved in music be it the spice girls,
prince, miss piggy or wagner. And though clearly its a "process" I'm refering to
its still something deeper and more than just what ya'd immediately imagine that
process being in and of itself. Rather, it evolves and reveals something beyond
itself.

I think the draw of any music and the particular salient or underlying "selling"
point in improv is you get it all from musician(s) where its gonna be
uncensored, per se and raw and a bit of a risk taking endeavor.

Its also a rare thing to have music come out of anything, composer, player or
orchestra that is 100% "ON"  right off the bat.  And there are always highs,
lows or points where you'd rather go see how the blonde in the front row looks
up close.

The point where ya break from yourself (s) makes something more than just a
collection of notes, words, patterns or thoughts or individuals.

I also believe (IMHO again) it is very possible for one person to have a
conversational (in any musical medium/format be it improv or compositional based
performance) relatioship with music that  actually goes somewhere. Though its
very difficult and hard to get to a point thats gets the flow rollin on a higher
level. some people can and do carry things thru  while others are just hit or
miss.

In responding to this particular posts tone, it sounds like listening clearly
gets in the way of hearing while being wrapped up too heavilly in the
processes/analyses to see what can actually happen and really does happen when
your looking for everything else but music's magic.

The post seems says more about a particular individual than it does music any
music I'm sure that person has certainly heard either clearly and or
creates/created.

Just an opinion/observation - Not a flame :)

><< Why not let a bunch of kids jump on your instruments?

on the rare occasions i get some time to practice, my two year old son
Jasper likes to sit quietly and listen to dad play what he calls the "green
'tar" (my green klein).   sometimes i'll let him sit in front of my
pedalboard and throw switches and play with the controllers to randomly
jump from sound to sound.  the sight of him sitting on my ernie ball volume
pedal and rocking back and forth with a big grin on his face usually
reduces me to fits of hysterical laughter.

my favorite practical application of chaos.

I do inject my guitars (VG-8/tube premps/guitar synth) into a mackie.
Then a send output goes in my jamamn and the jamman in a vortex. Then to
whole things comes back to to the mixer.
The right amount of volume pedal can allow control of the signal path
(pathes?).

I think it is the more versatile config, to me.

Just a reminder...
Will the echoplex work perfectly @ 220 V we have in belgium?
Is it a back switch that changes voltage feeding or is it automatic?
This was adressed a long time ago, I know, and I forgot...

Hi Andre,

My thoughts and good wishes are with you as you perform tonight.


Wish I could see it. I'm the only looper I know in Central Indiana.

...they would loop the entire catalog of Bobby Fripp.

Now that you metion it, most of the time that I play free is when I am using my
looper.  I think a lack of structure sounds best when is works with and/or
against a solid and tasty loop.

Live free or die!

Are you using Brother Sync to synchronize two Echoplexes, each with its own
footswitch controller? If you're using it, what settings are you using for
parameters like Quantize and SwitchQuantize? 

My music partner and I are just beginning to use this and finding that it's
not so easy to get everything to work out. In particular, we want a tight
sync between the two units but we also want instantaneous response to our
switch presses.

Any words of wisdom?

Thanks,
Len

not to add to the confusion, but my version of gesang der junglinge is from a

"kontakte" on the flip side. you might check their archives?

> ><< Why not let a bunch of kids jump on your instruments?

An old playing partner of mine who moved to Reno, got married, and had kids,
in that order (but didn't diminish his practicing allotment somehow),
started his sons off right by the time they were 1 - a miniature drum kit,
and, when the second one came along, a fisher-price keyboard.

The second son, when first put on the drums, went wild in a frenzy of sticks
and impacts, before kicking the bass drum off its stand, causing the kit to
collapse.

We both wondered if Keith Moon was somehow involved. :)

	I think that this is well put. After all, how many times have we
heard great three-chord rock songs and bad three-chord rock songs. There
does have to be some "talent" (or whatever - - creative intelligence?)
behind the stuff. 

	Someone else made the point that you need to have the ears for the
stuff too - - - for instance, I don't have the ears for Celine Dion, which
doesn't mean that she's bad, just that I don't care for the music she sings.

	I saw Branca way back in the early '80s at Schoenberg Hall at UCLA .
. . I went with high expectations, I didn't care for it at all. I don't get
him, yet I get plenty of others from the same basic downtown NYC scene
(simplifying here . . . ).

	Sometimes people are interesting conversationalists, sometimes
they're not. Sometimes they have "better" conversations with some people
than with others - - - CHEMISTRY. Sometimes one doesn't like what or how
someone says something, or finds them boring. So it goes with ANY performer
- - -  IMHO. Part of the "commitment" that I suppose one makes when dealing
with this sort of thing is that one goes with an open mind . . . sometimes
you're going to see dreck, sometimes mediocrity, sometimes brilliance.
Sometimes I wait through an entire evening of dreck in hopes of one instance
of brilliance, or something that will inspire me or make me think (not to
say something that I like). Often I am rewarded . . . 


> I guess its no coincidence that when I hear free improv I don't like, it

	Yet . . . sometimes, as in a conversation, you may hear the one
person who is listening making many cogent points.

	Oh yeah    Gareth . . . most people probably don't want to hear it.
But then again many, many people went to see Titanic and got the video, etc;
and I never will - - - I'll be waiting for the video release of Peter
Greenaway's "The Pillow Book" - - - different strokes for different folks.

Indeed! I often feel the same way. There IS a
difference between a *musician* and a *wanker*! ;-)
Of course, I've also seen my share of highly trained
wankers and untrained musicians, so...

How I tend to approach a free-improv gig is to layer
in some classical piece (Gymnopaedie #1 by Satie, or
the Allamande from the 1st Lute Suite in Em by Bach,
etc) as a means of providing the audience some sort
of familiar base from which to proceed. This also
serves the purpose of establishing my musical
credentials, so to speak.

My latest ventures are to stretch out rhythm changes
from 32 bars to about 256 bars, with guitar, stick,
loops and percussion. Fun.

Given... Depending on mood I swing between wanting to play structured pieces and
open form pieces. Lately my mood has been very zen and open... wanting the 
dialog to develop in real time. My responses may be contrived or certainly 
informed by my technique and preference as well, but at least the idea has 
sprung from impulse rather than pre-meditation. An ongoing quandry for me is how
to incorporate more structure without "canning" the experience.

>I think most of the ways in which we address allegedly non-structured content 
>may have a lot more to do with our expectations of that content, than the 
>content itself.

I'm certain that on any given night there will be expectations. As to how the 
music fares in relation to them is anyone's guess. 

It's sad when you've been waiting to record with someone for a year and the 
anticipation creates too much expectation. It's great when you just walk in and 
surprise each other though. (especially when it's verified upon playback!)

>* Those who expected something from the music that didn't happen (flaming
>Frippian solos, KC material from the 70's, ad nauseam) were very, very
>disappointed,...

It was actually quite funny to hear prog dinosaurs griping about how shitty the 
show was and how dissappointed they were with Fripp! I guess I should have 
expected it...

>* Those who went Without Expectations, and withheld judgement until they'd
>heard entire works, were far, far less disappointed,...

Oh yeah...

>but in general tended to discuss the material a lot less than the angry ones 
>did.

Not sure about this but I definitely heard a lot of griping! My friends (who 
also quite enjoyed the show) and I talked a lot about it...

>And, I didn't feel ripped off in any way.  I laughed at the execution of
>THRAK in that manner, in a good way...

It was GREAT to see Fripp and co. really laughing and enjoying the show. I 
particularly enjoyed seeing Robert jump up and encourage audience response to 
Belew's drum solo with much arm waving and gesturing... Quite funny and 
charming.

>So, does improvisational work - either participating or listening to it -
>say more about us, or about our feelings about it?

Not sure... This reminds me of a previous poster recalling someone asking if a 
Fripp piece was played by a keyboardist, would you still listen to it? It's a 
very interesting question...

My knowledge that someone is "walking the wire" and improvising certainly 
affects my response to the music. It's more performance related than media 
related. 

On fixed media you lose the context of the improv and it's often impossible to 
relate all the elements which supported the improv and it's direction. Improv 
performance is more about the wiles of the performer and their responses and 
references etc. It's like surfing or skiing for me... a real time reaction to 
multiple stimuli... call and response... wit... rejoinder... parry... flow... 
gravity... vision... The phrase "You had to be there." could certainly apply.

That said, it's "still just sound" as Andre LaFosse says and ultimately has to 
sit alongside work that may be far more mature and complete compositionally and 
in terms of production values. If an improv still elicits a strong response in 
that environment I give it double extra credit! 8->

Thanks Stephen...

best,
-Miko

	Yeah . . . I've done the same with Bach 'Cello Suites in and out of
free stuff, maybe into some Charlie Parker stuff. Lots of opportunity for
interpolation between Bach's/Parker's melodic fragments, stretching their
"changes," etc. 

	In general I find that I sometimes appreciate (both from listener
and performer vantage points) places of coalescence in improvs. A little
place of repose or a recurring theme. I think that it is also important to
think in terms of juxtaposition of moods, or areas of tonality versus
non-tonality . . . Some of us on the LA scene seem to do this. 


	I think that this thread is very interesting, many good ideas to
chew on here!

dennis,

I haven't got a VG8 but do have a Roland GR1 guitar synth. I think the key 
to flexibility is to utilise a good mixer, one with as many
effect send as possible.
With two outputs to process ( guitar + synth ) you use two input channels ( 
or 3 if the vg8 has stereo outs )
Now the signals are in the mixer , where they can be routed via the fx 
sends to various effects units. If you return the fx to other
mixer inputs then these signals can be sent around again and out to another 
effect on another send ( or heard on the channel return )
 Hence the usefulness of a mixer with many sends.  NB: you really have to 
spend time on this, as feedback loops lurk everywhere ! It's probably the 
biggest 'my brain hurts' inducer involved with this setup, but the results 
can be very interesting.
Unortunately you'll find most mixers come with only  two fx sends, usually 
a pre and a post. Pre is better, as
you don't have to hear the input ( dry guitar, or dry synth ) on that 
channel before you send it out again. A post signal has to have the
channel fader up before it goes post, so you can't hide that channels 
output. In order to hear the results of all this processing, the final 
output goes stereo out to a power amp and speakers ( or the inputs of a DAT 
etc ). Big setup !
A very good source of ideas on using a mixer and effects is the David Torn 
video ( number 2 ). Studying this and thinking how I
could adapt my equipment to dt's ideas has given me many hours of 
experimentation to puzzle over.
Many people on this list use mackie 1604 mixers. I've been using a tascam 
688, which has the ability to send to 4 effects, and a handy
little digital display ( 'scenes' ) to map the signal routing - but the 688 
isn't really a gigging option, as it's huge..
Another useful aid is some kind of speaker emulator/load device which can 
take the output of your guitar amp straight to the mixer.
This means you won't hear anything until long after you've processed it.
Getting really gear frenzied now, a simple A/B box after your guitar signal 
where A goes to the 'silent' guitar amp and B goes to a 'heard' guitar amp 
means you can build a loop, switch to B and play over whatevers coming out 
of the mixer.

I'm off now to get a life.

hope this helps

Ok, this may seem like comparing oranges & apples but.... I'm trying to
choose between these. Does anyone have any comments regarding just the
parts you can compare? Like the basic guitar timbre processing of the
VG-8(or the synthesis there of?) I would especially like to hear from
you folks who loop with a VG-8. Stuff like how you configure your loop
setup w/ the unit. As a blossiming Guitar player/looper, I am ready to
move up from my lowly SE-50 to a "real" guitar processor. I use a GR-50
also and get into adding a little something special to that core analog
sound from my STRAT. That core sound is what impressed me about the
Digitech 2112. On the other hand I like synthesized sound too so here
lies my problem. Are the various pickup config patches on the VG
reasonably comparable to the 'ol analog ways?
Thanks, -Dennis

yeah!! to me thrak attak is really great.. since it's wrapped in the
structure of the tune itself... and the sextet improv  is an example of the
great ESP those guys can call up....

everyone listens, they move from complete chaos to highlighting each
individual, more or less, or moving from emphasis on rhythm to emph. on
strange timbres... to ... whatever.

great CD, fripp is great, crimson i could not live without.

Hi,

	I just bought a Vortex and a Jamman for $300 over the net. This seemed like
an almost shadily good deal indeed (is it?) since I had recently seen them
going for more than that individually, but after fingering the seller's
email and talking to him on the phone, I decided that it was as safe as any
used gear deal I had done over the net and went ahead with it.

	So now I am waiting for UPS to show up with my potential bundle of COD
rage/joy (depending in whether everything works out or not), so that I can
join in the looping madness.

	However, the JamMan has only 8 seconds of memory. I understand that the
type of memory it uses can be difficult/expensive to obtain. Can anyone
recommend a source? Are they even still available anywhere?

Thanks,

Jonathan El-Bizri

Hi Joerg,
I've just been talking to A guy called Daryl at Alto Music in NY.
He says they'll ship anywhere and they'll take any form of payment.
I like the guy's attitude!
They said they'll even ship to Wales (even though they've probably never
heard of it).

Which is why free improv is a "you had to be there" proposition *most of the 
time*. When it's supernaturally sublime and on tape it's a gift to the world. 
(At least those who care.) 

Sometimes I'm quite relieved that certain music impaired individuals weren't 
present to hear my "tree fall" only to decide that I'm indeed quite crazy, 
deranged and possibly dangerous! Especially my co-workers! 8->

Steve Reich and Musicians

pieces performed:

Music for 18 Musicians
Hindenburg

excellent show!!! but then i'm a diehard, old SR fan... first was the
masterful MF18M - a hypnotic, slowly chnging wash of vocals, pianos, tuned
percussion, violin, cello.. just hear it!!!

and the piece de resistance was the nyc premiere of Hindenburg - another
video piece SR has done with his wife and partner Beryl Korot... she of the
cutting edge computer video techniques.. previously they have done the
CAVE..whic i highly recoomend - it's a piece tracing the common hiostory of
jews and arabs, through samples of interviews and sung liturgical texts...
great stuff

anyway - the new piece last night featured footage of the infamous zeppelin
as it crashed and burned here in nj - (no, not the band!! the airship!!) -
as well as 1930s footage of the general hindenburg and german troops....
tragically, this was the guy that appointed hitler chancellor.. if only he
knew....

so - music was juxtaposed with these cut -up - computer edited vid-images,
instrumentation was two longtime Reich percussionists, one snare
drum...beating out a military-style ostinato - they also had octapads,
triggering, i guess some of the numerous news soundbites and spoken
parts.... also a conductor, four vocalists, and (i believe) four violinists
- including our fellow looper Todd Reynolds.. who i was happy to have been
able to say a quick hello to...  as he said in recent post - they will be
recording this mon and tues - so wish 'em well and look for it. 

Reich is certainly of interest to loopers, he does something very similar,
building layers and patterns with repetition, with slight, slowly
introduced variations..his work is also about the most polyrhymic you'll
hear in this area.. he studied african drumming and music for many years
(still does, i guess), and in recent years has added in samplers to his
arsenal, exploring sounds of the NYC street, or snippets of interviews from
people who were involved in whatever topic he is highlighting.

the Hindenburg piece is part of a 3 part series - i think it's to to be
performed in it's entirety in 2001... also coming up next year or so is
"Bikini" which looks at the bikini atoll nuke tests (when  will we learn..)
and "Dolly" re: the cloned lamb of the same name.... the basic overall is a
look at technology/progress in this century... esp. after 1940 or so, and
it's place in our world, pro/con.

But perhaps the HIGHLIGHT of my evening was to accidentally meet a hero of
mine - the fantastic radio host John Schaeffer (sp)!!!!! As i sat during
the intermission - i couldn't help but over hear a couple having a convers.
with him... i kept thinking..."that voice..it can't be.." so i went over
and asked - and sure enuf!!!

for those of you not in the NYC area... John has hosted a show called "NEW
SOUNDS" on Wnyc for many years.. i shocked him when i told him i'd been
listening since 1983 - this guy is SO pivotal in my life - he basically
intro'd me to the music of Laurie A. , Reich, Glass, Alvin Lucier, Terry
Riley, Hedges, Gamelan, tons of African, Indian, Tibetan music, etc....
incredible. I probably first heard LOOPING on this show!!! So - a great
moment for me - meeting the guy who blasted the door open wide for me -
into the universe i now live in...

peace, andre'

        Basically I agree with  all that follows on the mixer.  To all this
I would only add that Mackie 1202s are very big on this list provide a great
deal of flexibilty in processing (two effects sends that can be used as mono
sends and have four effects, 2 on each send).  Their manuals are easy to
understand and in conjuction with the Torn video and some time, you'll be
able to do all sorts of fun stuff.
        I have a VG and use it with a 1202 and have a JamMan and Boss RSP-10
tied into Aux send 1 and the Echoplex in Aux 2.  The VG8 can also do
looping, although you don't have a lot of time available.  You can set the
amount of regenration to be controlled by the expression pedal so you can
loop and play over the loop without recording by rocking back and forth on
the pedal  (Thanks to David Coffin for that trick).  The pickup sounds are
quite good, very reasonable approximations.  With a little patience and
tweaking, you can get them to sound even better.  
        There's a VG website (www.vg-8.com) to which a lot of folks submit
their patches for easy download and a discussion list akinb to this one,
although not quite as busy.  I find the guitar and amp sounds work really
well and I love the HRM aspects of it as well.  I just released a CD and
recorded 85% of the trcks using the VG8 directly.  To my ears, they sound as
good as the old fashioned tracks with a strat, SansAmp etc. into an AC30.  
        I still play with my amp from time to time, but live I run through
the PA.  My back works much better as a result.  
        This is a great device with a lot of levels to it.  I've never tried
the 2112 so I have no way to make a comparison.

So here's a question to ponder:

If a million monkeys post to Looper's Delight, how long before one of them
happens to post on topic? :-)  Perheps some of you monkeys would be so kind
as to explain how loops and looping fits into your monkey music?

Don't forget the Alt 3/4 buss! This actually offers up either two more mono 
sends or one stereo. If you use y cables double that! My Vortex is on Alt 3/4 
and at the push of a button *anything* can go off to the Vortex. I'm hoping to 
get another Vortex and send mono left to one and mono right to the other on the 
3/4 buss. 

I have the JamMan on Aux 2 and my Waldorf 4-pole filter on Aux 1 which will 
allow a pre fader send...

What a lovely mess! 8->

Yeah does Branca loop? I almost, sorta, thought that I heard some repeating
pattens.

Hi Kim...

It's haha funny how often I'm involved in off-topic redirection... 8-> Actual on
topic implementation strategies follow!

Solo, I typically loop the first "interesting bit" I come across, however long. 
Which I then either compliment / argue with / Vortex / car crash... then later 
fade while permutating, often with short sequeway loops from either Vortex, 
LXP15II or the delays in my GX-700...

In ensembles it becomes quite a bit harder to slip in loops... It's mostly 
chemistry... are the jam mates really listeners, or do they really need to get 
their own ideas out? Often the first person to loop defines that portion of the 
improv. Then it's up to others to support / subvert the given musical content.

Using short cloud like loops to provide a backdrop sometimes works well when 
there's other defined material present, sometimes allowing the longer more 
defined loop/looper to permutate without dropouts...

Using short loopers with time knobs and wacking at the hold button until it's 
resampled itself into bleeps and blips provides actual interesting and 
surprising content to play with... ala Bill Frissell and Nels Cline.

Sending the JamMan through my Waldorf 4-pole analog filter often completly 
revoices the loop adding very percussive elements. This can also morph into 
insect like twitching... and finally descend into the sub-bass muck which the 
filter does quite well.

If the insect sounds become bothersome, I groom them from my own loops, then 
move over to my fellow looper...

best,
monkey-man-miko

Hi everybody,
	I'm a Philadelphia based musician and have been interested in looping for a
few years now.  I've been using a borrowed Lexicon JamMan lately but would
like to buy a looper for myself.  I've heard good things about the Echoplex
and was interested in buying one.  I saw one in a catalogue for $699 plus like
$150 for the pedals.  I was wondering if anyone was selling one used or knows
where to get one for less money.  Please e-mail me at WrongWayCM@aol.com

Thanks!

Colin Marston

I'd listen to it if it were played by a an accordianist!

But hey, I like Fripp's compositions.

When I dropped off my Roland GR700 at a local music tech store/repair shop
(heh, if the repair bill is higher than the worth of the unit, I'll let them
keep the darn thing! :)), they happened to have the Roland SP-808 on display.

Naturally, I took the opportunity to play with it a bit.   What it basically
does is let you play up to four samples at once out of a selection of up
to 16 samples at a time.  You select a pad bank, then watch the 16 trigger
pads light up as the samples load up.  With a Hold button, you can have
the unit loop a sample.

Obviously, the kind of samples you want to work with here are not the 
perfect tabla sample or that pristine Steinway piano, but rather phrases
of music such as a bass line, breakbeat, etc.   I was disappointed when
told that you cannot playback and sample at the same time.  I thought it would
be great if one could play two phrase samples while sampling oneself playing
live bass at the same time, then work with the newly sampled bass line.

The filter knobs and D-beam are nice real-time features.  The D-beam can
be set to one of three modes: Filter, Pitch, Sample Trigger.   The D-beam
is a motion sensor that can detect movement in an oval-shaped area above
the sensor.   Filter mode has the D-beam perform filtering effects.  Pitch
allows one to use the D-beam to affect both pitch and playback rate of the
samples (like a DJ's turntable moves).  Sample Trigger allows one to trigger
different phrase samples using the D-beam.  I had a lot of fun triggering
the D-beam by leaning into it with my head as well as waving around.  However,
I was disappointed that I could not find a way to not have the D-beam affect
playback globally.  In other words, I could not, for example, find a way
to use the D-beam to mess with a sampled vocal phrase without affecting
the playback of a breakbeat that was going on at the same time.  I'd like
to be able to have a steady rhythmic foundation over which I could do
weird things to samples floating on top with the D-beam.

The SP-808 uses an interesting memory management concept.  It uses a 100MB
Zip disk as virtual RAM instead of real RAM.

Overall, the SP-808 is a fun toy.  I enjoyed pretending to be DJ Spooky
and a Chemical Brother (the demo samples being inspired by those artists).
I was however disappointed that it could not sample and playback at the
same time (now I'm beginning to understand Kim's point about dedicated 
loopers and DJ-oriented gear beginning to converge but not being there yet)
and that the D-beam appeared to be always global.   Keep in mind, though,
that I am not a DJ or remix artist myself; just somebody interested in
getting into that stuff at some point.

Cheers,
Paolo

A lot of the time, I'll simply begin ambient loops,
which the drums and stick can easily ignore, or react
to. If I'm feeling particularly aggressive, I'll
build the loop into a huge monsterousity that'll
simply take over the sonic space. When improving with
non-loopers, the loop tends to define content for
everyone.

I've always been fond of Fripp's description of long
loops as trying to steer an ocean liner, as opposed
to a speed boat.

man, the restaurant where I was waiting tables shut down and they're
turning it into a cul-de-sac so I need rent bad.  As a result I'm going to
need this stuff prepaid, as I don't even have money for food right now let
alone shipping.  You guys get first dibs though!

here' goes.

(Heavily loop related)

	Aria Effects programmer $80 This is a foot long unit with 15 switches, 5
independant effects sends, and four foot pedals on it (1 bypass, 3
different programs).  Very usefull for switching effects and loops in and
out of the audio path. It also supplies power to 5 pedals. This unit is in
good condition but I have written the names of my effects in the little ID
boxes. $80 bucks and I'll pay shipping.

(Barely Loop Related)

	UMI treble, bass booster and mute 60$ This is a large silver effects box
that has knobs for treble enhancement (good),  mute (kind of a weak lowpass
filter), and bass boost (GREAT!)  With this box you can filter out all
treble from your bass and have super low dubstyle sub bass.  I don't really
want to get rid of it, but I need food. $60 and I'll pay shipping.

	Ibanez GE9 Graphic EQ $60 This is the old-school silver button light blue
model with 6 bands of EQ sliders and one volume slider. It's kinda worn and
scratched but sounds great! $60 and I'll pay shipping.

Thanks guys!

 Reminds me of the distraction I've often experienced at some hi-tech
concerts, where the performers don't seem to be performing, just servicing the
equipment--makes it hard to tell whether what you're hearing is the "piece,"
or just prepatory maintenence; I'd rather be just hearing the sounds from a
radio. In person, I seem inadvertently to demand the increased and compelling
drama of watching something extraordinary being accomplished before my eyes,
by a charasmatic humanoid...it's as if music in person must also recognize
that's it's dance, too.
I love those found soundscapes from unattended miked wires, etc...but the
"sound itself" always makes me want to take on the challenge of taking control
at least a little, simply to add the presense of a human awareness; I guess
it's nothing more than species-self-absorption, but it adds Art to Nature,
which I always do find irresistable, no matter how infrequently there's an
actual synthesis...
One such synthesis which made an indelible mark on my future as a
music'n'sound maker was a radio glimpse, at least 20 years ago, of an
installation of miked wires in a sculpture gallery, with which the public was
encouraged to interact. The show consisted of selected "performances" from the
installation's recorded history, and as a revelation of both the wonder and
joy of plucked'n'vibrating wires, and the tantalizing confusion over "made-or-
found?" it'd be hard to beat. The memory's definitely still "generating more
art" around here...

I've been working out with a used 808 for about a week now (with NO interest
in "traditional" DJ'ing or remixing), and after I get a MIDI pedal that sends
MMC, I'll be reporting on it as a realtime looper...so far, it's pretty clear
that Kim is right: Not there yet, still not favoring total spontaneity, but
some really intriguing options bubbling up...doesn't seem to be any way to
trigger sampling to the pads by foot...etc...etc
The D-Beam definitely doesn't have to be global, altho the Vari-speed function
always is, I believe.

Me, too (only it's VG, tube amp/mic, and GT-5)...the Mackie's a 1604vlz, and
I've got volume pedals on the fx returns to channels...I send the master out
to a stereo delay for looping, returning that to a channel pair, and monitor

Hey guys,
If some people dig this free improv stuff that's cool by me. 
I like the free improv. = free entrance fee idea since it would 
encourage more people to investigate this stuff and if they didn't
like it they wouldn't feel too put out.
When I mean't good and bad I was thinking from the pov of composing
music by accepting/rejecting notes/phrases/textures etc. This 
filtering process to me is the job of a composer. You could broaden
it out to accepting/rejecting musical processes but I still think
a clever idea is not enough.

The sound is the thing

Oh and Stig,
        "Oh yeah    Gareth . . . most people probably don't want to hear
it"
I think you got your wires crossed here. I certainly don't judge music
by its popularity.
I haven't seen Titanic either does that make me cool ;) 
Good to meet another Greenaway fan :)
Gareth

Anyone have any idea what it would cost to ship an EDP from New York to
California (with appropriate insurance)?  Ball park figures are fine - I'm
trying to figure out if/how I could get an EDP delivered to someone in
California, have someone else pick it up for me from California and carry
it to me in Australia as "personal luggage" and understand how much it's
all going to cost (to the nearest $100 or so)...

If this falls through and if a few others in Oz are interested, it may be
cost effective to pool our money, fly someone from Oz to either California
or Hawaii, have them pick up a bunch of EDPs, bring them back to Oz, take
the 22% import duty hit on each box and distribute the EDPs when they get
back.  Even at
- ~$A1000 per EDP unit (at current exchange rates)
- plus $220 per unit import duty
- plus ~$A1500 for a single economy return flight to California
- plus insurance
- plus some extra money for someone to do the leg work,
it'd soon work out considerably cheaper than the $A3k per EDP it costs to
buy them locally.  If you could get 6 people buying 1 EDP each together and
resolve any issues of trusting people out of the way, you'd be down around
$A1500+(whatever gets paid to the "US tourist") per EDP...

Regards

Dave Mitchell

Well, we all have our shortcomings.  In addition to a vigorous on-stage 
display of semi-rhythmic enthusiasm, I prefer that all the musicians be 
cute, between the ages of 19 and 29, and outfitted in the latest youth 
fashions.

Ken...

Downloaded this yesterday - it's a great start! Though I won't really be
able to make proper use of it until I get a RAM upgrade... I
particularly appreciate the ability to record the looping performance to
disk - just record a few, drop 'em into VST, and there's my next album
done.

Suggestions for future improvements:
- mutes on inputs to loops
- ability to play loops backwards (whilst recording forwards)
- ability to play loops at half/double/etc. speed

Please keep Loopers Delight updated with your news!

Hey Dain,

Come to the next FingerPaint performance in November then...we have lots f
analog synths, five or six looping devices( soon to be adding a plex via
deal here...)  and a beautiful old sunburst Jaguar that I'll soon be
retiring form the public eye...

Good humor after all those damn removes, etc....

	I guess  that one could say about anything. I have an aversion to
seeing rock bands that seem to me to be recycling stuff. Should they play
for free too? Club owners probably wouldn't like that anyway . . . besides
almost all of the gigs that I play here in LA (which feels like a wasteland
to me right now) have been free in terms of me not getting any money, seems
that the doorguy and bartender will end up getting paid more than me.

	When an improv is really clicking it is like collective composition
(IMHO). I've heard lots of "compositions" that seem to have less going for
them than improvs.

	Whenever I'm playing improv stuff half of my time is spent figuring
out when NOT to play, when not to start a loop, when to jettison the loop
idea I was going to start, etc. I can tell when someone's really listening
by watching them getting ready to play and then stopping because they
realize that the idea that they had 20 seconds ago is now obsolete.
(Rejecting)

	Conversely, when someone starts up a good idea I try to jump in and
lock in with 'em, either texturally, groove-wise, etc.(Accepting) 

	I've heard lots of clever ideas masquerading as compositions . . .

I think this is a very personal thing and you'll have
to sit down and play each for a while.  Each has
it's own advantages in terms of specific features
(such as basses and guitar emulations on the VG8,
and the wealth of FX configurations on the 2112),
but tone is a tough choice.  I remember comparing
my 2101 with a sansamp pretty carefully and deciding
that the tubes had a little something extra, even
though the difference wasn't that great.

I'll keep this brief to preserve bandwidth.

Brian Meader of Washington Music will sell us the EDP with 4 megs and the
foot controller for $695, higher than Alto's deal. He said he will contact
Oberheim and see if he can get a special discount for the group. As soon as
he gets back to me, I'll get back to you (all).

     Dear Loopists
     
     The first results of an on-going looping project, a collaboration 
     between James H Sidlo and myself, are now available in MPEG format at 
     the following URL:
     
     <http://www.geocities.com/bourbonstreet/delta/2495/jhs_dco.htm>
     
     If you can spare the time, I'd be grateful to find out how easy or 
     otherwise the files prove to download, and for any comments you may 
     wish to pass-on to James or me.
     
     Cheers
     
     David

YES!

Ok -  I ordered it a week ago, a few days before this group deal got 
started - at a higher price than was quoted for the group buy, but the 
price was adjusted accordingly. Gibson is right-on with it's delivery 
time.

The people at Alto are pleased & amazed at the response. they've got 6 
solid orders and have rec'd lots of calls from loopers who are "gettin' 
it together" cash-wise.

Hopefully everyone will have their loopers soon and we can get down to 
the business of music, bringing the list back to a "normal" state.

I'm going to spend the day digging into the EDP. If anyone has 
suggestions/tips/trick/techniques regarding the use of the EDP I'd love 
to hear 'em.

Isn't anybody using BrotherSync on the EDP for syncing multiple looped

I sent this out a couple of days ago and haven't heard a thing. I'd love to
hear about people's experiences.

Thanks,

The Brother sync works fine with a pair of EDP's used in stereo...one becomes
the master and the other the slave.  The foot controller gets hooked up to the
master.

I tend to think the visual aspect of performance is very important and 
can be as stimulating and as integral to a performance just as much as 
musical skill, gear, presentation and arrangment/placement of sound 
matters. 

I dunno, but music and especially loop based music is not what I 
particularly "hear" per se, rather its often the case of how i usually 
see it. & often music appears to me in the form of colors and 
relationships that are always moving, bursting, combining or fading.

I think looping would be much more prevalent and utilized more 
frequently across the board if it were presented in more mundane, less 
than "so serious" and "heavy/penetrating veins" & just left to flow in a 
more crass & crude manners. 


Is it a problem if "looks" overtake the music ??? yes and no depending 
on what you need to get from music. You dont need much analysis, ya just 
either enjoy it or pass it over. 

Not to put down anyone, but I just dont get goose bumps when I think of 
"Middle Aged" folks with dulcimers, flutes and violins improvising along 
the lines of modern classical stuff with maybe hints of bop using either 
lo-fi or hi-fi digital stuff and or analog/found gear. I always feel a 
big yawn coming on when i see or am around that type of stuff cause it 
rarely departs from the weight of its own aloofness. 
And not to discount the folks who feel alienated or insulted by crass 
presentations of "ego" or "minutae" they are valid perspectives but they 
seem to rule the majority ( not all but most ) loop oriented artists 
presently puttin stuff out right now. 

I dunno if u guys would call an act we mentioned a few months ago 
(Merzbow) a looper but I see similarities in his approach to that which 
is "loop" and think that in the contexts he usually frames his stuff ( 
Bondage - Porn- Exehibitionism ) in ( tho its way too "arty" 4 most) is 
in a direction that is a breath of fresh air and has a hint of danger, 
clearly chaos and a perverse deviance while departing from the usual 
stuff loopers usually indulge in en masse.
  
While Looping is truly sensual, rarely is it ever directly indulgent on 
levels that are direct and obvious or meant to appeal to more than just 
its usual crowd. Looping seems to be always coming from something thats 
aloof though unquestionably valid but in the end it always smells like 
something you really need an encylopedia on to really appreciate. 
(IMHO:)

Todd,

YOU ARE GOD!  I d/l'ed your looper and MSP runtime and it worked like a
charm -- 4 60-second loopers at one time.  I have one request.  could you
do a lite version requiring half the ram with two 60-sec loopers?  Only a
request, but it would allow me to use my old powermac as a standalone
looper unit.

All mac users really ought to check this out....  what a piece of work,
Todd...  all you need now is tap-tempo implementation and you are the LORD
GOD.

wow.  with tap tempo my mind would be blown.

the latency is crazy low, too.  what a dream.

thanks, todd.

Kim asked about the improv discussion and how it related to the topic of
looping. Maybe this will be more on topic . . . 

For me, as I primarily use my looping devices for free improv situations, it
is of critical interest to me. How does one take a fairly static
device/technique and make it breathe with music that can turn on a dime? 

For me it comes down to using the same "muscles" (my brain and ears) that I
use while playing the bass and adapting them to the technology at hand, the
looping device. So I have to be listening to what's going on, see what it is
that I want to do, try to ascertain if it's going to work. If it's using a
looping device, then I need to set up the line or texture that I'm going to
loop (unless I'm already doing it). When I'm starting to set it up, I need
to reassess whether or not it's still a viable musical choice: if not,
scuttle; if so, full steam ahead. The next parts of the process have to do
with adding to/changing the loop, what's right and what's not. Changing
volume of the loop, move to foreground or put in background. As important as
knowing if and when to start is knowing when to end; is the loop starting to
hinder rather than enhance the music at hand? Often I turn the loop off in
the middle of an improv and bring it in for a reprise later or at the end of
a piece. Perhaps I'll put it into reverse or change the octave . . . 


Since I play bass, the looping issue also gets into how thick the texture is
and how much mud is viable in the situation. Also a consideration is how
much out and out noise I want to deal with.  

To me it's all about creative decisions based on what's happening, where I
want things to go and whether or not those coalesce. 


In terms of my compositional stuff, I've been almost exclusively composing
structures for improv for about 6+ years now  - -  but these pieces have
purposefully not using effects. Now, however, I'm strting to compose pieces
that utilize effects and specifically looping ( ie part three of a six-part
piece is based on free loop with melodies and structures sunperimposed on
it). Interesting (for me) to try and adapt one set of techniques into
another . . .

Midi Delay 3.01

Midi Delay does many of the same things as a hardware digital delay and
more...The program uses hardware digital delay terminology (such as
delay time, decay and feedback) making it very intuitive to use for most
electronic musicians. In this version of Midi Delay the user gets 15
seconds of delay time, and 10,000 repeats (feedback) on the main delay
and 16 multitap delay sections that allow 15 seconds of delay time on
each tap and the ability to send the taps on different midi channels
and/or to different midi instruments. The multitap section can be fed to
the main delay for further processing and cool looping effects.

Controllers can be turned ON and OFF for each tap and the main delay via
Midi Delay's Controller Matrix window. The main delay and each tap can
be transposed up or down by as much as seven octaves in half step
increments. This version also sports a keyboard splitter, reverse decay
switches for all taps and the main delay, and sustain pedal control over
the reverse decay. Midi delay supports Apple's Quicktime Musical
Instruments v2.0 and higher as an output source. All settings in Midi
Delay can be saved as a preset file and loaded later for instant recall
of all parameters. Midi Delay can also save your favorite setup as a
default starting setup.

Requirements - A Mac with a 68030 processor or greater running System
7.5.1 and up with 6 megabytes of extra ram. Midi Delay is a fat binary
application, which means it has native code for both the 680xx family of
processors and the PPC family of processors (601's, 603's, 604's and G3
750's).   A 14 inch monitor or larger is recommended, but not required.
A midi sound module and midi controller are also required as well as a
midi interface to connect the controller/module to the computer. (Midi
interface, midi controller and sound module may be the same device or in
the form of computer software such as Quicktime Musical Instruments).
Midi Delay also requires Opcode's OMS v1.2.3 or higher (Current Version
- 2.3.5) or Apple's Midi Manager v2.0.2 or higher.


OMS v2.3.5 can be Downloaded for FREE from:
http://www.opcode.com/downloads/oms/mac/

Midi Manager 2.0.2 Download (FREE) from:
http://swupdates.info.apple.com/

Using OMS 2.3.5 (or Opcode's Latest Version) with Midi Delay will
produce the best results and allow you to use all of Midi Delay's
features with a minimum of effort.

I wish I could take credit for the Procrastination looper software as
someone recently lauded me to the skies (the lord god?  more like the
lord todd, nevermind - neverwasneverwillbe).  But this software is 
actually the work of one Ken Mistove, it is he should be lauded to 
the skies as some sort of loop diety.

Although, it's definetely a studio only thing for me.  I find it
difficult the idea of carting a powermac and peripherals around to
make some noises.  Whee!

I totally agree (please note the "smiley in my message above).  To me, this is an important aspect that 
distinguishes live music from recorded music.  For what I'm trying to accomplish, the thing is not just the 
sound.  I have two "rules" for my looper performances: 1) No pre-recorded sounds, including samples.  2) Only 
"natural" instruments, i.e., no synthesizers.  I believe that by adhereing to these rules, the performance is 
more interesting (and accessable) to the audience.

Likewise here regarding tips and tricks.  I find the "Multiply" button most intriguing.  Let's compile some tips and tricks.

Dear all,

	I concur with Herr Liebig on this one, though I tend to use a few other
instruments and then construct layers using switch-stomp boxes and essentially
any instruments I can get my hands upon, so yes, typically I am a one-man band
vs. being a band member.  The "Looping" was done on an old "tape" echoplex
that has recently died, so it looks like the "Rang" might be the way to go,
vs. the EDH, at least I found the "Rang" far easier to control, and I really
liked the reverse sound.  It does a better job than my other analogue Yamaha
rack mount, so I'll have to scrounge the money up for it, eh?

	Like any device it can be used in any number of ways, it could be used like
Andy Summers as a back drop to play over, much like Marillion and/or David
Orton's music (which was really pretty, by the by...)  Or you could improv
over a loop and change the loops like what was done by Gary Lucas of Capt.
Beafheart or that of the groups Ozric Tentacles and Eat Static.
	Computer based looping is really getting more towards the industrial side of
things, especially considering that a drum machine is pretty much nothing more
than a sequencer, thus providing the same function on the synthesizer side.
Like the good old days of Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk.

	Maybe its me, but I just don't feel that there's really a right way or a
wrong way to write music, it all gets down to the audience and what they enjoy
hearing, after all, you wouldn't want to be playing Aura (by Miles Davis)
inspired music to people that are really wanting to hear Les Paul (country).

	Have fun out there!

   You can do the robot? I had a dream about little Gary Coleman doing
the robot a long time ago. Had something to do with a guy named J.R.R
Churchill McTimehitler.
    He had two ElectroHarmonix 16-second delay pedals under each arm, so
yeah, this has everything to do with this list.

Hi all,

The past day's e-mail has been interesting. I'll try to address all the
questions in one single response...

It's tough being a Supreme Being... Seriously, I'm glad you have found the
software to be of good use.

I added a "lite" version of the patcher to the archive file on my homepage.
It has two delay lines of 60 seconds each and requires 24MB RAM. You can
grab it now...

>wow.  with tap tempo my mind would be blown.

Very possible...updates are in the works.

>the latency is crazy low, too.  what a dream.

That's all the work of MSP's author, David Zicarreli.

All that is required is the runtime version of MSP available from
http://www.cycling74.com/. This is the free version of MSP. You can't edit
or create patchers with this version however.

If you want to create your own or edit other patchers, you need Max 3.5.9
and MSP (currently at release 5). That's a big chunk of money, but well
worth it. I believe David Z has worked out a deal with Opcode to distribute
Max and MSP together in the near future. You'll have to check his site for
details.

*************

The good news: Max and MSP are officially being ported over to Windows.

The bad news: It's scheduled for late 1999.

It can output SDII and AIFF files. Currently there is no support for
reading from a file. It is an easy thing to add though.

Which leads to:

This little looper I wrote was and is an easy project. I am very open to
suggestions. Please write me with features you would like added. As always
"Procrastination" will remain freeware. It's my little gift to the looper
community.

Have fun!

Ken

I like Henry Kaiser's description of free improvisation.  He says that when
you improvise freely, you create your own structure.

Granted, the results can sometimes be tedious to listen to.  However, I find
that looping imposes the structure of time (the loop length) on my free
improvisations.  Thus making them somewhat less tedious for listeners who
are unacquainted with free improvisation (especially those whose only
contact with music is what they hear on TV and radio).

The loop lets them hear the improvisation several times so that they can
decide whether it appeals to them or not.

For example, my wife and kids find my non-looping free improvisations to be
annoying noise.  However, when I loop a free improvisation, they sometimes
(!) find it cool (or at least, a mildly irritating).

That's right, a loudspeaker and a dynamic mic are essentially identical in
operation,
they're just used in opposite directions. 
A walkman headphone contains 2 tiny loudspeakers.
Also a 'contact microphone' is (essentially) only an 'ordinary' microphone
which 
is placed in contact with something.
........and .......quite often walkman headphones use screened cable (for
looks).
........and........they're not too big.

So basically a walkman headphone is two contact mics.
......Try it.

If they're broken as a loudspeaker, why would they work as a mic?

Questions to all loopers:  

If music (& other artistic expressions) reflect interests and -- if you will
-- the "story" of a generation or of an age -- 

1) then what is the "story" of our age?
2) what are examples of music today depicting today's story?

I'm really curious to read what you guys think.

I think he means a pair with a broken chassis, not a broken diaphragm.  btw,
good old Sony V6's give an excellent 'low-budget' feel when used as a mic.

Hey Jeff,

I'm going through the same thing. I did get to play one with a sustainer in
it at a store in Gaithesburg, MD. But the salesman said no way to brigning
in a few of the same model to try out, unless I wanted to pay return
shipping on those I did not buy. I've called a few places locally that are
listed as dealers to no avail. However the one store is probably going to
bring in one of the model I'm interested in with a sustainer, knowing that
they have a serious interest. You might try that approach.

BTW Steev said the Shockwave files are working again.

i used to use an old earphone as a really cool harmonica mic. it would distort
the harmonica for that down home bluesy sound. it worked because only one of
the earphones was broken. i used the unbroken one for the mic. speakers can be
microphones and mics can be speakers. what will receive will also send and
vice verce (sp?).  PJ

Dear Kirk,

I hate to say it, but that's really a very subjective question that will have
as many varying answers as there are people who are responding to them...

	The story of our age could be set upon the backdrop of decadence or
disillusionment, just as there are a few groups whose music touches upon the
hope that tomorrow will be better.  Again it is really what you listen to
musically, theatrically or socially.  I'm not hip on the classical, country
and rap scenes (not to mention all the other populiar music that exists in the
world).  Personally, I prefer the "art rock", "acid, fusion, small ensemble
jazz", "world music" (folk and/or religious, and yes, it is due to Peter
Gabriel) and the occasional bit of Japanese populiar music due to anime.  With
such a tiny sampling, there are still a multiple of view points going on...

	Marillion, Rush, Genesis, Pink Floyd, and Fish all have differing
perspectives on daily life and then more so on broader based issues going on
within the world, but for the most part they all have the same thing to say
concerning society, and that people are really very alone, and have forgotten
how to reach out and say, "hellay there!"  Something about a multitude of
failed relationships, which may or may not have had problems to start of with.
In some cases the computer has become the surrogate society even though it is
nothing more than a tool!  Not to misquote the Crow, but the idea has been
forgotten by the institution.

	I don't tend to write lyrics myself, mostly because my voice would make a
raven squawk!  My ideas are usually based upon a groove provided by a
multitude of different instruments (mostly strings ranging from hammered
dulcimers to electric guitars, I even used a vina once) and have them either
sampled or recorded via a "looping device" to then be modified or left on a
near infinite loop until another wave or movement comes to mind.  (Didn't
think that I'd mention anything relative to the forum, eh?)  
	My tendency is to play to my emotions rather than a particular story or
thought.  Sometimes it is completely happy and bubbly.  Other times, I can be
a little manic or even depressed, but such is life and the changes in
audiences...  So, to answer your question on a personal level, I would have to
say that the story of our age as seen through my eyes is one of delirium
wrought by intricacy under the facade of order.

	Hope this helps you out.

  		Lee-ohki.

Late reply here...

George uses custom interactive music software which he calls "Voyager".
He wrote it in Forth.  He runs it on a PowerBook.  I think he uses the
voice-to-MIDI function on a Roland VP70 to convert his trombone playing.
Voyager is not loop-specific, though it may occasionally do it by accident. 
It is designed to be a full partner to its human counterpart in the 
improvisation process.  George has a cd entitled _Voyager_ on John Zorn's
Avant label which devoted to Voyager.

Cheers,
Paolo Valladolid

I think he was referring to headphones with working speakers but a broken

I knew that a speaker and a mic were basically the same thing reversed, but
isn't a contact mic different from a dynamic mic?  Contact mics don't pick
up sounds, they pick up vibrations.  That's why they have to be touching the
mic'ed object and why they can't feed back.

Pulled underneath 
By a strong undertow
Light flickers down 
To a shimmering 
Green world below...
   
Pulled to the ground 
By the powers that be
At last giving in 
To a power much greater than me...
     
Light gently streams
Through the trees 
To the ground
The passage of life 
Moving on
Never making a sound...
     
The leaves 
Gently fall 
>From the trees 
To the ground
The passage of life 
Rushing by
Never making a sound...
     
Lost in a world 
With no one to believe
Faint memories 
Of a life 
That I used to lead

We put on our masks 
And we go to the show
Never knowing quite why 
As we move 
Through the world down below

The leaves 
Gently fall 
>From the trees 
To the ground
The passage of life

This has to be as related to looping as the vast majority of stuff I'm 
seeing posted here... Hope it was meaningful in some way...

Sure they can feedback, no problem. All you need is enough gain in the
circuit. For example, a contact mic placed on an acoustic guitar is quite
prone to feedback. The surface that it is on (the top of a guitar)
resonates pretty freely. If the gain through the system is enough to ensure
that the vibration induced in the top (from a speaker reproducing an
initial stimulus picked up through a contact mic) gets re-introduced into
the system (re-picked up by the contact mic) at a greater level than the
initial stimulus you get feedback.

Sound is nothing but vibrations so same thing only different. I remember that my
bro' Randy made a talk box type of contraption using a small speaker as a mic.
Thats the first I new of the mic -speaker duality. Damn , he made that 20+ years
ago it seems,

I am still reading it over, and well you know over. The ultimate loop
cycle it seems is life. Now that I look back after three kids that magicly
grew up and now show me the way frequently I feel a part of a very long
loop indeed.

thanks for that,
Jeff

don't be so sure about that.  they can feedback, just not as easily.
i don't know how you plan to use them, i just didn't want you to think they were
perfect.

Does anybody have any info on getting a Fernandes
guitar? I have lists of dealers in the area but
they don't have them in stock( ever). It seems
that to try one is to give a 50% down payment and
order one! I suppose thats reasonable given that
its a niche market for guitars that go *SPLANG
EEEEEEEEEEEE.......etc* ad nausium, perhaps, but I
think I want one, I think 6 e- bows at the same
time might be really cool. They don't do mail
order direct. Oh , well, this guitar ( if I get
one)  and EDP (loop content)  should  hold me for
a while.

That's pretty funny about the sustainer bit. Fripp plays their guitars,
Reeves Gabrels uses the sustainer. You CAN purchase their sustainer
separately (as i found out in an issue of Japan's Young Guitar Mag.) but it
is around $400.00 for it. It'd be better off to get the guitar and use the
body for experimentation's. Call Fernandes and ask their help.

yeah, and I hear that to buy the sustainor unit with mods on a guitfiddle is
about the same price as the whole works. Frankly,I have been disappointed with
the conversations with Fernandes reps. on the phone. I guess they are doing
alright without me.
Mayby a group buy? Not instigated by me.

I remember a while back we all discussed this problem that so many of us
had. WELL...i also remember speaking of the principle of doing that with
regular guitar pickups (using the neck as a driver to send the signal back
out to the strings). I got a post from a fellow looper who told me that he
already had the small amp made that you need to drive the pickup but he
needed it rewound with twice thicker wire and 1/2 or so less turns...
WELL it turns out that i do have some good wire that i would be willing to
send to one of you who might know about doing such a thing...if you're up to
the challenge.

Let's all get happy!!!
SUSTAIN FOR DAY'S!!!

Sincerely,
Jeff Collins

PS. I'm about to check a favorite composer of mine and ask him about said
thing...since he has already done this, Simply listen to Jim O'Rourke's disc
"Remove The Need" on Extreme.

Not "loop specific", but I'm certain there are other guitarists on this 
alias using a Roland GR-30 Guitar Synth (or maybe a VG-8, or other synth 
with a hex pickup) with a guitar tuned with the "new standard tuning" 
used in Guitar Craft.

When I drop the bass string to a C, the GR-30 has a real difficult time 
figuring out the frequency of the string.  It'll jump back and forth 
from the low C to any number of frequencies that it picks up from the 
harmonics.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Any suggestions or 
resolutions?

Thanks,
Greg

Thanks Rik,

The guitar may not be as good as the sustainer (or may, I have read some good
reviews on it... ), but I am tempted to buy one if for nothing else but the
unit.

Hi,

	I have a GR 300 andi it is a very uniqe and special machine.  You can use it
with the 303 controller or with a GK1 pickup.  It is a matter of taste and
usage. 
People in the Philadelphia area like to use the Ibanez synth guitar rather
than the Roland which was made by Ibanez.

	I have been using mine with a GK1in studio situations with a unit that I have
modded slightly ( I can send you a copy of the mods).

	GR 300 tracks like the new Roland units absolutely instantaneously.  People
confuse the GR 300 and the GR700 and GR50, they have tracking problems i.e.you
must play cleanly.

	It is a unique sounding unit with the ability to do great expressive work,
the hex fuzz and the tunable vco differential do great things.

	You must however, learn to play it but since you seem to have an analog synth
collection like mine you won't have a problem.

	You can use the controller , GK1 or Ibanez with a US2 switch to
simultaneously use a 300 and a 700 or a GM 70 (that's the Midi converter)

	I am looking for a Roland guitar if you decide you don't wnt it and go some
other controller route. Iam also looking for a US2 switch. I have a GM70
module for sale or trade.

	Hope this helps

Best Regards

Gino Wong

I've heard a couple sustainers that were ripped out of Fernandez gits and
wired into a strat and a Fly. Neither player wanted the Fernandez, just the
sustainer. ONe bought his new, sight unseen, because he wasn't going to use
the git. The other found a used Fernandez and robbed it for the part. Maybe
with heavy lobbying Fernandez would consider selling the sustainer
separately. For the time being, it appears that their policy is to make
people by their (not horrible) gits in order to get the sustainer.

Anybody ever take one of these things apart? Know how it works? Could we
cobble one together?

Rik

I neither have a GR-30 nor use the Guitar Craft/Standard tuning... I DO
however utilize a non-standard tuning for all my work, my sixth being tuned
to as low as a low A; and I have experienced the effect in question with a
tuning program I use, but only in the past.

The problem in my case occurred because of the different-than-normal tension
of the strings under my own non-standard tuning.  When I experimented a
little bit and tried a few different guages, finding heavier ones more
favorable for a more exact tuning on my sixth (but less comfortable, the
thicker they got).  I also found that this jumping-around effect (on the
part of the tuner program) nearly disappeared, which may have been a result
of lesser harmonics (?) of the more exactly-tuned string.

Not having a perochial musical background, the above is about as exact as it
gets linguistically; I don't have a full hang of the nomenclature (though
I'm always willing to learn more in order to communicate better with Real
musicians [giggle]).

I've not had the cash or timing to be able to attend the Guitar Craft
courses, and, alas, I understand they're being taught now by other than RF;
while I could guarantee the availability of a blank slate to a teacher, I'd
rather deal with the apparent Master than a subordinate, eh?  Nonetheless,
has there never been discussion of different guage strings to accommodate
the different tuning?  The course was specific enough to require the
Ovation - did this not extend to the strings?  Puzzling.

Such confines as "our age" are variable at best.  Whose age?  I'm going to
be 42 just after Christmas, so what I might consider as such might be
significantly different than someone in their early 20s.  I've always
suspected that such compartmentalized efforts as "The Top 100 (fill in the
blank)" have tended to be either some executive's idea of a Great Marketing
Scheme Designed To Refocus Consumers, or some result of  some Expert's
thoughts on How We Need To Be Educated.

Since, from an early age, I was correctly suspicious of any sales pitch, and
tended to analyze the propaganda content a lot, such items as "Our
Generation", "Our Age", "Our Century", tend to be less-than-relevant to me.
The idea that anyone could declare the end list of the 20th Century's
greatest Anythings before the end of that century is spurious at best.

Second, then, What IS today's story?  I dunno, there was a guy on the bus
today who so clearly had fleas that everyone gave him a 10-foot berth;
another bank robbery in Hollywood at the B of A; the Fall pretends to be
Summer in October Los Angeles, but shows its age in the golden tint, and the
lengthening shadow; and, as ever, the New Moon holds the Old one in its arm.

I question the idea of a "defining moment" for any span of time, since I
wonder if it doesn't exert an unnatural boundary around something that
cannot be bound.  I remember moments for their own charm, and in
recollection, don't think of any period of time I've been in that can be
encapsulated into a smaller thing than it is.

(I've been concentrating on folding space instead, to no known avail).

Use the tuning control on the GR-30 to tune the string down within the
synth itself.  In other words, select the bass string, and using the
individual parameters for that string inside the GR-30, detune it by
four half-steps down to C.  You'll still be playing an E, but the synth
will transpose the note and it will sound through the synth as a C.  

The term I use for this sort of thing is a "virtual tuning."  It's a
good way of exploiting the individual string control afforded by a
hexaphonic pickup.  I guess Joni Mitchell is ecstatic about the VG-8 for
a similar reason, in that the unit can perform all sorts of virtual
tunings without having to adjust the actual physical strings.

Obligatory loop content:  Just got the two new Squarepusher releases,
which were issued domestically (in the US) on Nothing records.  Haven't
listened to them yet, but I'll post a review soon.

Read the manual for setup tips, particularly regarding pick placement,
and try adjusting the sensitivity to various levels.  If you are not
already doing so, try a thicker gauge string.  I have a Godin tuned
to this tuning, and am using a pretty heavy lower gauge.  Also I don't
follow the craft recommendations for the first 4 strings, they result
in tension that is so tight it can twist the neck.  I try for as
even a tension across all strings as possible.

Sorry 'bout the long delay, Andreas. 

This "Dirty Dozen" thing is actually being conceived as a theatre piece
which won't be performed for about a year. That's also the reason for
the increased complexity of the rules in comparison with other
"conducted improv" stuff. Whether this is a good thing? I think so in
the end, but it requires a lot of time investment.

Who's gig is it? Well, the two organizers are Christopher Bleckinsop and
Carsten Dane, both of whom are multi-instrumentalists with strong
connections to German theatre. They want the project to be financially
rewarding and they also want to involve an entire stage concept -
therefore the theatre concept!

Where will it be? Probably Berlin, Muenchen, Hamburg etc.

Some wonderful answers so far...here's my $.02:


>Questions to all loopers:

>If music (& other artistic expressions) reflect interests and -- if you will
>-- the "story" of a generation or of an age --
>1) then what is the "story" of our age?


Here's an optimistic story:

Loss of innocence, expansion of awareness, individual responsibility,
creating and respecting boundaries.

Release of destructive patterns/behaviors.

Transformation of lonliness and suffering into connection and joy.


>2) what are examples of music today depicting today's story?


jimi hendrix, john lennon, & bob marley were all takin us there, and
there's been countless others...

general examples:

blues-based music,

any danceable and/or ecstatic music, -- for me: esp.
funk,reggae,ska,tribal,soul-jazz,some rock,some electronic,

music to support focusing & relaxing:  I like bansuri (bamboo flute) music
a lot...and minimal/ambient....and, of course, Loop Music!!


peace,
chris

Subject: [thewire] Unusual Guitar Sounds

From: bb454@mcmail.com

"Smash It Up !"
How to Coax Unusual Sounds from your Guitar
No. 5 in a series of efficacious articles by Big Block 454

An electric guitar is a tool for sound production  -  although there
are various recognised standard ways of playing it, this should not
preclude you from trying out all sorts of other methods of getting
sounds out of it  -  it's not a classical instrument, so let's explore
the boundaries !

With modern recording techniques and samplers, it doesn't matter that
the wonderful sound that you have discovered only works on one note  -
 sample it, loop it, whatever.

I will not be talking about effects units, I'll just be dealing with
the guitar itself.  What you do with the signal after it leaves the
guitar is your own business  -  and of course that deserves another
article entirely.

Some of the ideas I'll mention are extremely basic  -  but something
in here may hopefully stimulate your imagination, and that's what it's
all about.

Standard Playing Techniques
Right Hand :  Plectrum or fingers
Left Hand : Fingers or glass bottleneck / steel slide

Well, let's not bother with any of those  -  you know all about them.

What else could you use to sound the strings with ?
Coins give an interesting edge to the sound  -  I believe Brian May
uses old sixpences. How long the strings last is another thing. Drum
sticks, chop sticks, rulers, spoons   -  for a percussion effect. 
Hammer all the stings whilst holding a chord, or use the implements in
both hands. 
Violin bow  -  you've all seen Jimmy Page using this.  
The guitar isn't designed to be bowed  -  all the strings are in the
same plane, whereas a violin's strings are at different heights.  
Thus, you've no way of playing one of the middle guitar strings on its
own.   The only possibilities are bowing either the top or the bottom
string (over the neck) or just dragging the bow across all the strings
 -  or bouncing the bow percussively like Page did. You could try
tying a thread round one or two strings, pulling it taut, and then
bowing the thread.  
 Glissando Guitar  -  a great technique, used by Daevid Allen and 
Steve Hillage from Gong.   "Bow" the strings with a metal object held 
in the right hand.  I believe Daevid Allen used silver scalpel 
handles;  I've used metal bottlenecks, jack plugs, pieces of model 
railway track, whatever.  It helps to use something not entirely 
smooth; a brushed aluminium jack plug works better than a chrome one, 
as it catches against the strings better.   Hold your chosen object 
at right angles to the strings; and move it rapidly up and down  -  I 
tend to use a guitar tuned to a chord and often a bottleneck on the 
left hand as well, plus a echo unit (but I said I wasn't going to 
mention outboard effects... ).   A silvery sound.   As always, try 
different pickup and tone control settings. 
A similar effect is to hold a bottleneck in your right hand and slide 
it up and down - odd things happen on a two-pickup guitar  -  with 
the neck pickup on, the pitch goes down as you pass the pickup; with 
both pickups on, you get a dual sound between the pickups, as one 
picks up descending pitch whilst the other picks up ascending. Try 
dragging small chains over the strings  -  I use one from an old bath 
plug.  I also use this to whip the surface of my banjo  -  a man's 
got to have a hobby.

The E-Bow sits over one string at a time, and uses an electro-magnetic
field to stimulate the string into vibration. As you approach a
pickup, the volume becomes louder  -  and the E-Bow can be very loud !
  There is a dead spot over the centre of a humbucker, which means you
can get a tremolo effect by sliding the E-Bow back and forth over the
pickup.   A bottleneck and an E-Bow can give a theremin sound. 
Two of the members of the band 10cc invented a unit called The Gizmo 
a while ago. From what I remember, it consisted of a motor and six 
brushes that attached to the guitar bridge.   The brushes rotated all 
the time, and there was a key for each brush, which brought it into
contact with the string.   Thus, it was a bit like a mechanical
version of the E-Bow, but with the added effect of being able to play
more than one string at once.   I believe Godley and Creme used it on
their albums. Try brushing the strings with a small electric fan, an
electric toothbrush, razor or vibrator for similar results.

Pickups
Some guitars now incorporate a transducer as well as normal magnetic
pickups, to get an acoustic sound as well as an electric one.   Try
using a contact mike for a similar effect.  Try attaching it to the
headstock, for some weird harmonics  -  it will tend to pick up the
sound of the strings beyond your left-hand fingerings, especially as
you change chord positions  -  you could also pluck the stings behind
your left hand if you want.   Remember, contact mikes don't put out
much of a signal, and semi-acoustics may work better than solids.  
The avant-garde guitarist Derek Bailey used to use this technique.   I
believe Frank Zappa had a Strat with a built-in contact mike, which I
think is used on "Zoot Allures".
 Just close-miking an electric guitar (whilst also playing it through 
an amp) gives an acoustic, cutting edge to the sound  -  apparently 
Buddy Holly did this. 
Some pickups pick up exterior sounds  -  try shouting or whistling 
into one.  My Gibson Melody Maker is particularly susceptible to this 
 -  possibly because the pickup is mounted on the scratch plate 
rather than firmly attached to the body.  Try a compressor to get the 
volume up. 
Try bringing a motor, electric drill or radio close to a pickup  -  
weird sounds may result.   A large magnet may also work, but mind you 
don't wreck your pickups. Playing a cassette recorder near the 
pickups may be interesting.

Switches and Controls
The obvious technique here is blipping the pickup selector switch.  
The "Pete Townshend"  -  on a guitar with Les Paul-style controls, set
one pickup volume to zero, then blip the sound on-and-off Morse-code
style, preferably at the end of a song, with loads of feedback.   The
"Jimi Hendrix"  -  just change rapidly back-and-forth between pickups
for abrupt tone changes  -  it happens fairly early on in "Voodoo
Chile - Slight Return".

Prepared Guitar
Like John Cage's prepared piano, objects can be inserted between the
strings to make strange sounds.   Try rulers, coat hangers, tinfoil,
screwdrivers, forks and knives between the strings and so on. 
Clipping two strings together with a crocodile clip or paper clip
makes some good noises. Also, try damping materials like rubbers or
cloth. In a lot of cases, you'll find one note will sound great, and
the rest won't  -  so sample the good one !  
The Coral Sitar Guitar used a floating bridge to simulate the sound 
of a sitar. Someone published details of a way of fitting a metal 
block near the bridge of a guitar so that it just touched the strings 
and equally made a sitar-like sound  -  if anyone knows any more 
about this, please contact me.

A guitar or bass laid across your lap can be played percussively by
using the fingers of both hands on the fretboard, like a typewriter.  

I saw Derek Bailey playing a guitar with two extra strings  -  a thin
one lying loose on the fretboard, and a bass one attached to a machine
head and the bridge, but stretched round his foot (he was sitting
down).   He would pluck the bass string, then bend the note by moving
his foot.  (You could also bow it).   The thin string would be played,
then wrenched round the back of the neck.   He was playing a
semi-acoustic with various contact mics on it.

Rolling Things Down The Strings
The two main participants in Big Block 454, myself and Pete, both
started our musical careers by rolling things down guitar strings and
recording the results  -  have we progressed much since then ?   I
used ball bearings and marbles; Pete used batteries.   Stop recording
before they hit the bridge and fall onto the floor (or drop inside the
soundhole on an acoustic).

Take the backplate off your guitar and play the tremolo arm tension
springs  -  you need the volume up for this one.  Play the strings
beyond the bridge or nut.

Finally, try whipping the guitar with a cat'o'nine tails or a riding
crop, or using a chrome dildo on it  -  thanks to Steve and Terry from
LOG.

on your guitar. There are more articles like this on the Official Big

I seem to remember somthing about that. Any  more info?Also there is the
Sustainiac, if they still exist. And how does a Sustainor unit work? vs. a
Sustainiac?

Oh yes, I tune down a half step on some g----rs and if the strings rattle I try
to work that into the loops. (loop content)

I am getting frustrated with velocity sensitivity in drum pads, as well as the
fact that on this one beat I am trying to create, I personally cannot make
myself hit the pad double time ... and in-sync with the beat.  I was wondering
if anyone knows if the alesis SR-16 may have a function in which you may
program and automate the drum pattern without having to tap out the pattern
manually ... also, does the akai mpc2000 have such an option?

Lower/halve the tempo then try recording it again... Also investigate
quantisation of your recorded beats.

Step-time recording should be available on the SR-16 and MPC2000 as it is
an ubiquitous feature for drum machines, but who can say what goes through
the minds of equipment manufacturers.

We have an old Power Mac 7100 used to record on that seems to have had one too
many mini-plugs inserted, or hot plugged into it.

Anybody ever dealt with repairing jacks on one of these things?  Can it be
done.  We solder.

I don't have access to any live loopers, but I have some sample-based
loop music that you might like to give a listen to.  I haven't quite
gotten to use any of the little bits I've picked up on this list yet,
but I've only written one song and about ten seconds of another.

I'm calling my little project Grendel for the time being, and the song
I have is sort of hip-hop and metal and prog and noise.  I happen to
like it a lot, for some reason.  I suppose it's industrial--"dance metal,"
hehe--but Prick it ain't.

If you're interested, take a peek.

There are introduction to New Standard Tuning courses instructed by those
other than Robert Fripp. Only Robert Fripp instructs Guitar Craft courses.
Currently, if you want to be instructed by Robert Fripp on a Guitar Craft
course, you must first have been introduced to the tuning by another
instructor. If you are interested, see http://www.seattlecircle.com/ or

                       Saturday, November 7th 1998 8:00PM

On the weekend of November 7th a collection of Warr Guitar and Stick
Players will be gathering at Orion Sound Studios in Baltimore, Maryland
for a weekend of collaborative work studying two handed tapping
techniques. As a part of this work, there will be a public performance
Saturday night at 8pm. The music will range from traditional jazz,
progressive rock, fusion to jam-based improvisational rock and more.
Admission is $5 for this all ages show. 

Performers will include:

Frank Jolliffe: Jazz artist Frank Jolliffe has performed throughout the US
and Europe for the last 22 years. He has taught touchstyle at both the
National Guitar Workshop (12 years) and the European Tap-Guitar Seminar (7
years).  He is the publisher of the TouchStyle Quarterly and recently
edited the Frank Paul book Rapid Fire Bass. This will be Frank's second
year teaching and performing at TapTech. See http://www.touchstyle.com/

The Dark Aether Project: Featuring Adam Levin (Warr 8 String Touch
Guitar/Loops), Yaman Aksu (Fretted and fretless Guitars) and Brian Griffin
(Drums), Expose writes "intense and blistering lead work...amazing loops
and shimmering textures that are at once haunting and dreamlike...worthy
of attention." Progression magazine says "jazz-inflected, often
minimalistic...foreboding soundscape[s]... mature musicianship without
pretentiousness."  See http://www.darkaether.net/

Three Hour Detour: This New Jersey trio features Ray Ashley
(Stick/Vocals), Joe D'Andrea (Drums/Vocals) and Helene Zisook (Electric
Violin). Their unique blend of upbeat progressive fusion draws from many
influences, from folk, jazz, improv rock to african rhythms. They'll be
playing material from their debut release on Clever Sheep records. See
http://mars.superlink.net/~rayash/3ht.htm

William Bajzek: Whether recording or performing solo or in ensembles such
as Division Sign and A Fine Day, William's unique musical voice shines
through with his 12 string Warr Touch Guitar. His debut CD project _A Fine
Day_ is a collaboration with brother Peter Bazjek (acoustic guitar) and
Kelly McCaffery (saxophone) in an improvisational progressive jazz
setting. See http://juanvaldez.dws.acs.cmu.edu/~wb2a/

Other performers will include Squash (featuring Stick player Christopher
Dunne) and solo artist John Sillasen. More acts are still being confirmed.

Hi Greg,

I had this same situation with the GR-1. The manual says that the synth can
not reliabley detect pitches lower than the E used in the standard tuning.
Hence your problem. RF himself sadi inan interview that he now has two
tunings. One with the lowE replacing the C.

Thus Andrea's "Virtual Tuning" will not solve your problem
straightforwardly. oeer withthe string tuned to E,, you can than convert
that E to C giving you the NST as far as synth sounds are concerned. BUT if
you blend guitar and synth, you could wind up with some unwanted harmonies.

Patrick

I have pretty much everything from last Spring in MS Outlook.  If you can import from that, we could arrange to send you the one big file -- many little bits or one big file.

Well, as was noted here before, Ken Mistove's "Procrastination" audio
looping software is (shall we say in the vernacular) "the duck's nuts."

Completely amazing.  

I even did some goofy stuff like taking a CD of Robert Fripp's soundscapes
and looped that, just for fun.  I also dialed out into the internet, 
and the dial tone, touch tones and sound of the modem got looped into 
the composition too.  Weird.

I looped some CD-R audio of my existing compositions and that worked
really well too.

Suggestions?  Since I have 80+ megs of ram, could we possibly have
one very LONG loop?  (i.e. instead of four one minute loops, how 
about one four minute loop?)  Or have some way of configuring the 
number of loops vs. time?

Tap tempo would be nice.

Also, some sort of time display that would let the looper know what
position he or she is within the loop currently playing?

It's an amazing start so far and will be using it for a project
very soon.

Any Mac user who has a suitable amount of RAM should try this out -
it's absolutely amazing.

-Todd

As I write this, I'm listening to, and quite enjoying, Vol 2 of the Space
Groove double CD, despite my earlier very vocal annoyance...so, one
interesting CD and a free coaster for $18...not too bad! Apologies to all
concerned (is anybody?); I now regard myself as a "Fripp-fan," provisionally,
as always!
CD2 isn't earthshaking, either, but it's simply more reliably surprising to me
than that Groove disk; I always enjoy the sense of being present as fine musos
explore new toys, and seem to actually be making some discoveries, not just
cruisin', as it sounded to me they were doing on the first disk. Reminds me of
another all-time fav disk of mine: Keith Jarrett, Book of Ways, which also
sounds like a great musician discovering a new instrument, and exploring it in
a fascinating way. If you like KJ and wonder what he'd do on a guitar, this is
prob. as close as you'll get---he close-mikes a clavicord so that its usually
very faint-sounding plink comes off sounding agressively plucked and full.
It's also a double CD, and coincidentally, one disk is, to me, also pretty
much a one-time listen: it sounds like Jarrett's trying to prove that he can
Bach with the best of 'em, unlike the other disk where you get to listen as he
gets off on a new sound.
...apologies for my relentless subjectivity--can anyone relate?

As far as synthesizer modules go, what does everybody think about the NANO
series of synth modules (as well as compressors) the ALESIS offers???  ALSO,
are their any other expandable synthesizer modules that anyone would like to
suggest, as well as MIDI CONTROLLER keyboard?

Todd and others,

>Suggestions?  Since I have 80+ megs of ram, could we possibly have
>one very LONG loop?  (i.e. instead of four one minute loops, how

Version 1.1 (available now) now contains "Procrastination long" - one 4
minute delay line. 1.1 also adds input mutes. This is a start toward more
flexible audio routing.

>Or have some way of configuring the

Dynamic memory allocation is planned.

>Tap tempo would be nice.

Believe it not, I've never used any hardware loopers. I'm assuming that you
want to set a delay line's total time in response to you tapping in a tempo.

Please elaborate on what you would like this to do. (Private reply please -
let's not waste bandwidth).

>Also, some sort of time display that would let the looper know what
>position he or she is within the loop currently playing?

Also possible. I'll have to think about ways of doing this.

*********

To anyone interested in "Procrastination" let's move most of the discussion
off of this list. I will post a message here when updates are available.
Feature requests, bug reports, etc., should be sent directly to me.

Also, I found a different type of Max/MSP software looper available at
http://www.sirius.com/~ear/. Follow the software link.

Thanks,

Ken

Hello guys!

Im about to buy a looper tool. It'd be either a Jamman or an Echoplex DP.

I've read thru the specs, but for me (im a beginner on this platform) it's
like the Echoplex beats the Jamman.

But then, why some people choosing the Jamman instead the Echoplex?

i can not afford the two, so please lighten me up!

Actual loop content:     22% (see below)

Thanks to all who responded.  I'll probably just convert my strat back 
to normal tuning and create some "virtual" tuning patches on Gr-30.  Of 
course the obvious drawback, as others pointed out, appears when mixing 
guitar signal with the synth -- which I like to do.  On the other hand, 
it may create some interesting opportunities as well.

I already had a heavier gauge string (54 I believe), but it only helped 
slightly.  I'm curios about Jim's setup.  He's using a Godin and isn't 
having the same issue.  If I'm not mistaken the Godin doesn't use the 
GK-2a pickup, but rather a piezo solution (the RMC's perhaps?).  Could 
this be a superior design?  I got the impression from the Roland manual 
that "closer is better" w/ regard to the hex pickup and the bridge.  
Following that logic, the best position for the pickup would be the 
bridge itself.  Maybe?

By the way, there's a new mailing list that just started up for the 
GR-30.  http://www.indiscipline.net/gr-30.  

RDLA: recommended daily looping allowance..

Relatively poor man's looper:
1) you need at least a mixer or amp or other effect device with a free 
send/return pair, a delay pedal, and a volume pedal.
2) From the send go into a volume pedal, then a delay pedal, then back 
to the return.

If you want to add something to a loop, hit the volume pedal.  Close the 
volume pedal and solo away over the loop.

Have fun and save for that EDP, Boomerang, Jamman, or wait for GOD <sic> 
to create a PC looper solution next year.

Cheers,
Greg

ok, you asked for my opinion... certainly nothing by alesis can be
considered "pro", and much of it sounds like shit (even the 20bit adat
sitting next to me), but, of course lo-fi can be used to tremendous
advantage, and sometimes the grungiest, dumbest sounding piece of gear can
sound really cool. So, listen, and see if they're right for you. Also,
often local music stores (like Robb's Music in Boulder) has great finds on
used (read vintage) keyboards. - often cool analog stuff etc. Sometimes we
end up using a module for only one sound anyway, so make sure the thing
generates sound in a cool way - whatever that means to you - sorry, but you
asked...

1) some may remember, we spoke about sustainer about one year ago. There
is the new system from the makers of the Sustainiac, which seem not to
expensive, sells as a separate part and seems very powerful with
features like harmonic rank choosing, a "bow-button" effect liberating a
sudden power surge to gives this bow effect, and many more.
Unfortunately, I lack the site address of these people (anyone?). I, for
my part, have a Fernandes guit. I bought for next to nothing.
And there is the possibility of the ISF (or something like that) that a
person writing on the Stickwire list has designed.
Your sound goes in parallell to a little 50W amp with no speaker, but to
a contact driver (kind of speaker without paper cone, used to drive soft
walls, glass.... any flat surface) which you stick (well..) to the body
of your intrument. That make the body of the instrument resonate and
hence gives the wildly wanted sustain. The amount is controlled by a
simple volume pedal on the patth to the second amp. Sustain at the touch
of the foot.

2) Craft tuning:
Since the GR-30 work with a pitch to midi detection, the lower the note,
the higher the delay between plucking and the note coming out. Because
it needs in theory at least 1/2 cycle to indentify the frequency, and in
real world 1 or 2 cycle at least. That can generate ghost notes, error
of detection...
For craft tuning (in fact any tuning with low notes) you'd better stick
with the neural system of the Axon (or Axxon?), that extract note
information from the transient of the plucking, whatever the note
height. That allow also for the machine to detect WHERE you are
plucking, and then have different sounds , like one near the neck, one
in the midle....
Yamaha recently licensed their technology in their latest system. That
doen't make Roland very at the edge of guitar synth (too bad, they were
the one to continuously invest in the area).
Note I'm not selling anything, I still have an old GR-50, the Axon being
impossible to find in Belgium where I now live. You would get more
information on their site (I don't remember exactly now) or on tPaolo
valladolid's digital guitar site.
Now, the V-8, i have, you don't need to change the tuning on the guitar,
you can do it on the machine as ypou please, with a different tuning for
each preset if you want, even several tuning at the same time, choosable
with an expression pedal.
I use 5th tuning for a long time, with a low A and a G# at the top. That
often prohibits things like bending the highest string. I even tried
harpsichord strings, because of their higher steel quality (being
german, sorry american stell just don't compete). It wasn't enough
anyway.
This I can do with the VG-8 at ease. The only draw back is, you loose at
bit of attack on the "re-tuned" strings that is not "perceivable" (does
the word exists???) from the audiance but is from the player.

Sorry for the long post. Hope it helps...

Hello adam,

There's no question about it.  I've owned both.  Get an Echoplex, it's
far,far better, more versatile.  You'll love it!!!

Hi there,

De-lurk mode on...

For those of you making inquiries about the original Sustaniac sustain device
by Maniac Music, they are still in business and you can make contact with them
through Alan Hoover whose e-mail address is: HooverA@tce.com.

Alan's a really nice guy. He's doing a repair on my sustainiac right now as I
speak (the first it's needed in a dozen years of owning it). After my EDPs
it's the one effect that I can't imagine having to live without. 

Best regards,

T.Killian

Don't forget Alan Hoover and Sustainiac... 
     
His product works the same as the Fernandez... (they "borrowed" his design or a 
portion of it) and he's currently working on a Strat version which will use the 
middle pickup as a driver. I can't quote exactly, but believe a fully loaded 
pickguard w/your pickups sent to him for the mods will come in a well under 
$400... maybe less than $300.

The (old) Sustainiac email address is... maniac@netdirect.net 

Alan Hoover posts to this list frequently so you might query him directly about 
it.

yeah, and I hear that to buy the sustainor unit with mods on a guitfiddle is
about the same price as the whole works. Frankly,I have been disappointed with
the conversations with Fernandes reps. on the phone. I guess they are doing
alright without me.
Mayby a group buy? Not instigated by me.

I checked my Godin (a multiac), and here are the gauges:
9, 13, 18 (un wound steel) 32, 46, 56 wound brass.  The
crafty tuning uses a wound 22 on the 3rd string, and 11s on
the top string, both way too tight, in my opinion.  I got
my strings in bulk by the dozen at musicians friend.  When
you buy in bulk, you buy individual gauges, so you can pick
what you like.  I still think the lower strings are a bit looser
than I'd like, but that's the thickest i can find.

I use an Axon (which I highly recommend, along w/ the equivalent
yamaha), and haven't had any serious tracking problems. It uses
piezo RMC pickups, so I think that may improve tracking when using
Roland products. As pointed out in another post, the Axon is much
better tracking lower pitches as it uses the attack transient
to guess the pitch, rather than waiting for a complete waveform. 
I've found it to be much more "playable" overall than the GI-10
I used to have, both on the Godin, and a regular electric w/ a 
GK-2a.  Of course, it is also more expensive, harder to find, etc.

Hello out there!
I am new to the Loopers-Delight.
I have Win95/200Mhz Pentium, Gina DAW, Cakewalk and MIDI modules.
I WANT The Oberheim Echoplex, but not enough spare $$$.

So, I am looking for software - Shareware or Freeware - to do what 
the Echoplex does.  It seems like a better place anyway, because
I could have stereo in/out, like the old 2-reel tape rigs we did in 70's and
80's.
(on the back of Fripp and Eno's album, remember???)

OR - Does anyone want to take a hack at writing one - in Visual Basic or
something?

EMAIL ME!  CHuck Joy! ==> crs@usa.net

Thanx

If any Vortex users have any tips they would like to pass along that

Have you looked at The Boomerang?  It comes sort of in the middle between
the two as far as features go.  If you can afford the EDP, and want total
options, it's probably the way to go.

My only advise in using the beast.. if not doing so already, run your rig
in stereo.

i was listening to this cd this morning and yesterday. frisell has an awful
lot of loops going on this one. a lot of tough playing too. bill must have
been in a bad mood when this was recorded because he really rages on some of
these tunes. =-) PJ

How about adding a sustainer to one of these?

Has anyone with a sustainer guitar experimented muting/damping/buzzing the
strings? I'm sure you would have to be very precise, but the idea of a
infinitely buzzing guitar is very intriguing (sp)

jeff , there is no difference between the two. 
I think what Roland was referring to is a voltage control pedal such as the
roland EV5. I think that's the one I use. "That is of course unless you
using a control voltage to control a volume parameter!"

have any users noticed that when you use an E-Bow with a GR-30 you have to get
the synth sound going first? ie; the Bow does'nt vibrate the strings enough. I
have set the senitivity but it still does not grab it. I mean, I have to hit
the note hard to start it,

I'm still contemplating , hmm an infinitly sustaining , damped, buzzing tone,
I think that there are many methods of obtaining this with enough volume.

ps, I am investigating as I type

Just a heads up to those of you looking for the fabled EV5.  I looked and
looked for one when I got a hold of my Vortex, but with no luck.  Perhaps
Roland has stopped producing this pedal?  In any case, I picked up their 
FV5 and it works as well (just need a different cable).

My only complaint is that the FV5's response curve is odd (almost
parabolic?).  It's VERY responsive in the first 20% of the pedal swing,
then it cools out to give a flatter curve.  Do any of you folk know how I
can flatten out the curve to get a more uniform response through the
pedal swing?  As it is now, the first 20-30% of pedal swing takes my
Vortex from 1-50 with the last 70-80% of the swing taking me up to 64.

Is this behavior standard in E/FV pedals or is mine just whacky?

Re New standard tuning question:

I think the problem is caused by the fact that the low C vibrates at a
slower rate and therefore the note is recognized by the hex pick-up less
quickly.
Is the problem worse when fretting notes as opposed to when the open string
is let ring? If it is, try a thicker gauge string. A light gauge string
tuned down to the low C can really vary widely with respect to pitch, due
to inconsistent finger pressuse throughout the time the note is fretted.
This is a big problem for me using the tuning on acoustic guitar. The Hex
pickup may be having trouble recognizing pitch when it varies outside of
certain tolerences.
I know that Fripp is a proponent of using the thickest gauge strings one
can stand. Perhaps this is not only for reasons of improved tonality.

Just a thought - Jim

Take the output of the bridge pickup, and put it trough an amplifier
capable of delivering ~10mA, then drive it into the neck pickup rewired
with 1/2 - 1/3 as many turns of 2-3x thicker wire.  Easy.  (Been planning
to do this myself - have the cct etc, but haven't been able to afford the
pickup rewire)

That is standard for a volume pedal. That's because volume is best
controlled with "log taper" potentiometers, where the resistance through the
pot changes in a logarithmic fashion. (for your ears, this sounds like a
smooth increase in sound as you move through the range.)

Expression pedals usually use a linear taper pot, where the resistance
changes linearly through the range. 

When you use one in place of the other, you get the sort of experience you
are having. Most of the change occurs in a very small range of the pot.

If you are willing to do a little soldering, change the potentiometer in the
pedal to something like a 20k linear taper pot. They should be easy to find.

My experience with the E-Bow has been that the pickups in the guitar are going
to make or break the added analogue synth.  With the GR-30, 50, 10 and the 1
the E-Bow will sometimes not trigger the synthesizer because of placement of
the E-Bow and possibly the GK-2a (or other like Hex pickup) is not close
enough to the bridge of the guitar.

One problem that I've been running into on my little rig, (a GR-50, Carvin
doubleneck with a gk-2a and an older metal cased E-bow or the plastic one) is
that the GR-50 will warble/yodel a bit with the power dives or with long
glisses, this seems to be a common problem.  The AXON/Yamaha tend to do this
more readily, but they do track a little better than the Roland brain boxes
when using a plectrum or your fingers (with the apropos setting, of course.)

Sorry, that this is not the typical Loop material and is a little more suited
to Digital Guitar Digest or MIDI Guitar Network's pages.  

Tchus,

Lee-ohki.

whats up with this talk about "crafty" gumba's guitar tunings.....do i have to
be a gentleman or a fripporino fan to get some insite into this? i have to
find someone to show me this tuning before i can be taught by the master? i am
at a loss! but this is not new for me.......sounds a bit esoteric.......anyone
care to enlighten me off-list about this? im always up for new guitar
sounds......thanks.......michael

p.s. imho, for any new loopers, the boomerang is the way to go to get your
feet wet.
you are up and running right out of the box, looping your brains out with no
learning curve, add ons, nor frustration. but i am somewhat simple and would
rather play than push a lot of buttons and get the right foot-controlers and
up-grade simms etc. i become more techno-phobic with every passing day. i know
it is only a matter of time before all my equipment turns on me and refuses to
work. its been a really hard few days and i hope i dont sound like a smart-
ass....loop on one and all.......michael

Dear michael, this instructions sound very ineteresting..

"Take the output of the bridge pickup, and put it trough an amplifier
capable of delivering ~10mA, then drive it into the neck pickup rewired
with 1/2 - 1/3 as many turns of 2-3x thicker wire.  Easy.  (Been planning
to do this myself - have the cct etc, but haven't been able to afford the
pickup rewire) "

But how did you get this choice between harmonic rank (1, 2 and 3rd???)

On the other hand, the Stick shows that U get a better sound with thin gauge (compared to guitar)  better meaning a richer
harmonic content...

"I know that Fripp is a proponent of using the thickest gauge strings one

Tip one 
 Use a notebook to write down patches you find.

Tip two
 i) power up vortex while holding both 'A/B' and 'reg/preset'
ii) turn preset knob until OB appears, (or OA).
iii) press reg/pre button.
iv) turn reg/pre knob to produce a series of tones
v) parameter knob varies volume
       This would seem to be a very high quality sine wave generator,
            125Hz to 16kHz

So I went away on vacation for a while, leaving you folks on your own. When
I come back, what do I find? Reams of mail on "how to infinitely sustain
you-know-who's favorite guitar tuning on a midified coral electric sitar"
or something interminable like that.

jeez!

I'm reminded of the old joke, how do you get the guitar player to turn down
the volume?

Except it's like some kind of nightmare where I can never find the
cyber-sheetmusic.....

:-)
I'm confident that someone will eventually remember the list topic......

Why people buying a Vortex next to their Jamman?

I'm about to get an Echoplex. (is it available with no problems anyway?)

Thank for those who made me decide getting it instead the Jamman.

But i've got an extremely good offer for the Vortex (i could exchange it
for a Fatar SL161 masterkeyboard, damn cheap). Could the Vortex do anything
useful next to the Echoplex?

Maybe you can share the secrets of the Fripp tuning with us who happen to

After quite some experimentation with 7-, 8-stringers and low tunings
(since I always liked the sound of pitched playback-tapes, LOOPERS etc.) I
finally arrived at baritone instruments with a scale length almost as long
as a short scale bass which I play as sixstringers since it is a great
format. Even on those I use at least an 062 for the B note one fourth
beneath the standard low E. Everything else sounds crap to me. No offense
here, a guitar simply isn't built to handle pitches below D  w.o. causing
problems in tuning, timing etc.

Kim and co., I laughed so hard at this "how to infinitely sustain
you-know-who's favorite guitar tuning on a midified coral electric sitar" that
people around me thought that something was seriously wrong with me. And I
couldn't explain the joke.

Bill is always really slick about his looping.  It's one of those things 
that the casual listener might not notice (espically in context of some 
of the complex tunes he plays and the fact that he rarely uses 4 bar 
loops) if they aren't pointed out.   (This as opposed to say, oh I don't 
know. . . Frip?!?)

If you've ever met Bill, I think you'd agree that it would be rare to 
find him in a bad mood--especially if he's playing music.  You should 
check him out on the Naked City stuff if you've never heard him rage:  
It's a side he explores on occasion.  Also check out Power Tools and Marc 
Johnson's Bass Desires (Both _Bass Desires_ and _Second Sight_)

Peace,

Doug

It's

(from low to high)

C G D A E G

The C to be used is below the low E on the regular EADGBE tuning.
The G is the same pitch as the low E at the 3rd fret in EADGBE.
The D is the same old D you have always used.
The A is self-explanatory...
The E is the same as the old first string in EADGBE
The G is, of course, really high and tight and can break on occasion.

If you have a seven string guitar, the low B should be tuned to A, as
far as I've read so it is ACGDAEG, low to high.

No, you don't have to be a "fripporino", whatever that is.  I never
attended a class but messed with the tuning and liked it - was able
to write some interesting tunes with it.  It does get you out of ruts,
but most new tunings would if you have musical inclinations.

Beware though:
if you have a Floyd Rose bridge, be very careful because the heavier
tension at the higher strings may cause your bridge pieces to crack
from metal fatigue.

I tried this tuning on a Floyd equipped guitar that had the bridge
for about 5 years and was used to a .009 set of strings.

I ran into 2 cracked bridge saddles due to my experimentation on
this, but only after two or three weeks at this tuning.  

My recommendation: find a fixed bridge instrument to do this on,
such as a Les Paul or Telecaster or hardtail strat.

Your mileage may vary.

Oh, the low strings work great for looping.

Why don't you guys turn the oscillator that the low-e string triggers
down an octave instead of tuning your guitar string down an octave?

You can do this, you know.

Oh, a higher quality guitar that has the Sustainer built-in is a guitar
made by Jackson (usually known for more high powered, scythe shaped axes)
called the PC1 (so named for Phil Collen of Def Leppard?!).

It's a strat shaped guitar with a birdseye maple neck and curly maple
cap on (I think) an ash, alder or poplar body and has the sustainer
built in as a standard option.

It evidently comes either with a Floyd Rose or a Wilkinson trem.  It's
a nice looking guitar (especially the all natural one, matches nicely
with the birdseye maple on the neck).

You may want to check one out if you don't want to carve up your fave
instrument to get one of those sustainer thingies installed.

Better yet, restring the guitar to use all Hi-E strings .010 or
whatever, and program the Guitar-to-MIDI converter to shift the
MIDI notes it sends for each string.  Then you get equal tracking
response on all strings.  Of course this makes the guitar almost
useless as a regular guitar.

Clayton,
Yes, you can wire the 2 footpedals in parallel.  Make or buy a Y
splitter for 1/4" phone plugs, connect both footpedals and the EDP
together via the splitter.

Hello Ken,

wow!  thanks for your reply.  I'm saving up for MSP right now.  I already
have MAX, and love it.

I would love to be involved with this project in any way I can be.  I use
my powerbook in a live situation as an effects processor (as well as for
other things.)

I have four main things I'd love to see tis program do:

* tap tempo
* time display
* two more modes:  loop/overdub and loop/replace
* selectable internal routing

These features would make the program work like four Lexicon Jam Men with
some routing ability.

__tap_tempo__

What I meant by tap tempo would be more clearly stated "I'd love to be able
to tap in the loop length like this:  click to start a loop running and
then x seconds later click to close the loop, at which time the sound
recorded after the first tap would start to come out.  I like the way my
Jam MAn does this with looping and delay.  It allows you to lock the delay
into the rhytm of music.  That would be VERY useful and would likely
transform the way most loopers do their music.

Also cool on the Jam Man is the ability to tap a delay period and then
divide it.  It works like this:  tap on the 1 of a bar and then on the next
1, making a loop exactly one bar long.  On the jam man you can then DIVIDE
this period by 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4... making a delay period be a half a bar a
quarter note triplet (in 4/4) or a quarter of a bar.  I use this in crazy
ways to get my delays to work against the time...  an arbitrary division
would be awesome.

You might implement this as a blank labelled divisor where you can type in
a number.  Making this dynamic so that you could switch the divisor without
stopping the sound would be great, but seems hard, maybe it could switch it
at the beginning of the next iteration?  The dynamic switching wouldn't be
as important as the period division feature.




___time_display____

I think that the best way would be to put a countdown timer in the window
for each buffer.  something that showed the seconds counting back.  Also,
like the jam man you could have the TAP button flash with each cycle of the
loop/delay. These things would indicate some timing info for each delay and
would help a user tell what was coming from where.



___two_new_modes___

A switch on each buffer that would toggle between loop/replace,
loop/overdub and delay mode would really expand the abilities of the
program.  This is another feature which would be similar to the Jam Man's
funtionality:

loop/replace:  Tap to start the loop, the buffer fills until the next tap,
which closes the loop, which then plays on until another tap starts the
process over again, clearing the buffer.

loop/overdub:  Tap starts the loop, the buffer fills and a tap closes the
loop, the next tap puts the player in 'overdub' mode, which dubs the played
sound on to the loop, the next tap takes you out of overdub mode.  This can
go on till you hit clear and reset it.

Delay mode:  adjustable feedback delay with manual or tapped tempo.

In the two loop modes the manual time setting could be used instead of a
second tap...  if you set the period to :35, :35 after you tap once the
loop will close.


____internal_rounting_____

Something that would also really add power to the thing would be the
ability to 'patch' the ins and outs of the system.  where the L + R audio
goes and where the out of each delay bank goes, finally to the L + R audio
outs.


If you read this far, thanks for staying with me, these are just the
suggestions for my dream program, not anything that I would expect anyone
to slave over just for me.  However, know that you would sell a ton of Macs
if these features were a reality.  You would change the way a lot of
loopers made music with this -- it could be one of the most powerful audio
tools out there.

thanks for your time and write mw for a reason or no reason at all,

Tone is the most subjective of topics. Imagine trying to play a fast funk
rhythm guitar with a Stevie Ray Vaughn tone and strings (he used light
>bass< strings on his guitar(!!!) )- it wouldn't sound like funk guitar
would it? That may not be a perfect example, but I think you get the idea

There may not be a perfect string, but if I read your message right, what
you mean is a string that played the infinitely highest harmonic content of
a string pluck/tap/hammer etc.

When you tried the new 'light' set of strings, were they the same
age/cleanliness of the heavy ones, and had they had the same amount of use?
Any new set of strings is going to sounds much more 'alive' and 'tinkly'
than an old one. Are you sure that this was not what you were hearing?

Not that I am an expert on sticks of strings, but have noticed that a lot of
a chapman stick's tone is caused the the actual action of hitting the metal
fret against the string, as opposed to plucking the string with a plectrum
or your fingers. Next time you have a stick in your hands, try plucking the
strings - it sounds a lot more like a guitar that I thought it would.

I'd really like to see a PC equivalent of this program, though I would
assume a port is an unrealistic idea.

A more directly useful suggestion, though:

VST plugin comatibility. Wouldn't this rock? It would be awesome to be able
to use a looper in an audio sequencer, have it synched to midi and automate
the controls! and you could have as many loops as you like, of different
sizes and shapes, by running more plugins. This would get even crazier if a
VST effect loop could be added inside the plugin, for feedback effects.

Wouldn't all this rock? Maybe Dave Brown (isn't that the guy who does all
those free VST plugins?) would be the one to talk to.

Hi Andy,
Tip one is good advice, if you checkout LaLa at my page you will hear
what I have never been able to recreate. Back in the early 90s I had an
attitude where I just twiddled knobs until I heard something,heh. ie; i
never wrote it down or recorded it.  I have never been able to find the
exact combo of settings to repeat this tune. Somebody else grabbed a boom

box out of their car and recorded all the Techno Babble tunes on the
page. Of course now I wish I had more , for nostalgia if nothing else.
As for tip two, sounds cool, tip three is a cool page, I'm sure that I
will use your resources frequently.
thanks alot,

jeff

On the topic of PC looping: I've played around with Visual Basic, and the
kind of performance we're thinking of is way beyond what such tools can do
natively. I think whoever does a "full-featured" looper will find themselves
getting involved with the likes of DirectX Streaming  / DirectSound plug-ins
and the like - not for an amateur programmer such as myself!

To recap, DirectX is the API set Microsoft have created so that games
developers in particular can access the multimedia system on a
"device-independent" basis - not caring whether the output device is a Sound
Blaster or an Event Layla system. It also supports a "plug-in" architecture,
which is where we come in. There are already quite a few musical plug-ins
out there - EQs, grungelizers, dynamic sections, and some excellent reverbs
from the likes of TC.

I've got the MS "DevNet" reference which includes all the API details, but
I'm probably going to have to learn C++ to get anything out of it...

I'll keep thinking etc..!

Ken Mistove's last message to Looper's Digest said:

>>Also, some sort of time display that would let the looper know what
>>position he or she is within the loop currently playing?

>Also possible. I'll have to think about ways of doing this.

I had a look at this problem a while back when I wrote a little "Loop
Metronome" in MS Visual Basic on the PC, and I came up with two
possibilities:

1) The Wheel: Represent the loop in memory as a wheel, something like the
tape in an original EchoPlex would look if its path was round, except that
the heads could be shown moving around a stationary tape, not vice versa.
This method could cope with multiple taps, with a "input / feedback" tap
shown as a different colour, while the wheel could have coloured segments to
indicate subdivision of the loop.

Taking this analogy further, the colouring of the wheel could even perhaps
show the signal level, or FFT spectrum at a given angular position. Or how
about having "taps" moving the wrong way round the wheel for reverse looping
... - nah, too much?

Alternately, if the wheel was shown moving and the "taps" stationary, that
would open up the possibility of a virtual wiring diagram for multiple
delays: "input1 -> loop1_write, loop1_fbtap to damping EQ -> loop1_fbtap ,
loop1_tap1 -> loop2_input" etc., etc.

2) The Bouncing Ball: this is the simpler method I eventually used. If the
loop is subdivided into n "bars", a ball can be shown bouncing horizontally
along a display, n times, then returning to the start. It takes advantage of
the way we perceive and can adjust our actions to match a moving object, but
there's not too much room for fancy features beyond that.

Any comments?

pluggo is a VST plug that will interface into MSP, there is info about it
on the MSP page at www.cycling74.com.

it looks like it is coming out very soon.

That's how the SynthAxe and the Stepp Guitars both work, by the by...  Both
were awesome instruments whose tracking was absolutely unparalleled.  They
only suffered one slight problem, both beasties were rather prohibative in
their pricing.

BTW, guitar nuts, fernandes' web pages
(http://www.fernandesguitars.com) features
a highly amusing quote by a certain crafty
guitarist about his new sustainer.  I called
and they said that their les paul clone,
the monterey will be available w/ a sustainer
early next year.  He also said their custom
shop could add a GK pickup....

On the Ebow:
I've been able to get all sorts of wild
noises by moving the ebow up and down the 
strings, using it to scrape strings, etc.
highly recommended.

ok, I'll stop now...

I just bought a mini-Z fro Ztar systems. It's a mid controller set up like a
touch style instrument. It has six, two-octave 'strings' (rows of
buttons/keys) and you can set the tuning and splits any way you want. One
very interesting 'tuning' that I have seen mentioned is setting up the
strings in straight octaves (each string corresponds to one octave higher.
This makes for an intuitive, symmetrical finger patterns and lightning fast
scales and arpeggios. Of course, harmony, chords and polyphonic playing is
more difficult, since you need both hands to play a melody line (to span a
whole octave of button/keys), and chords become very wide stretchs.

Anyway, it's being built as we speak (I hope) cost me ~$1300 (with a
joystick as well as the thumb expression controller) and there is a one
month return policy. You can get them shaped like guitars, with 'string'
triggers, with 'drum' pads (that you can use to send any controller
messages) and even with a wave table synth built in.

I don't know if I can recomend them yet (I have yet to see mine) but I have
talked to a number of satisified customers. If anyone is interested, I'll
dig up the web address. Their site has lots of pretty pictures for the
curious.

Dear 

Whoops, missed this one...  A problem that you could be running into with a
lower pitched string is going to be fret noise, and possibly noise generated
by the HEX pickup getting tapped by the string.  I've found that the best bet
with HEX pickups has been to go with graphite necks and thus get yourself out
of the hassles generated by multiple dead spots and possible bowing issues
when you use some odd tunings.  Michael Hedges is probably the best example on
the guitar with Michael Manring being in a similiar vein on bass guitar.

There are also a few gizmos out there that will allow you to make such changes
with minimal loss of intonation and being off in the tuning, however again, I
stress that a graphite neck is the better bet than either wood or other
material.

Hope this helps out.

Lee-ohki.

Rebirth has a delay function that I am dying to emulate with my other gear.
Basicly, you can set up a 100% feedback delay, 1 bar in length and then feed
one of the drum machines (I suppose it should work other instruments, as
long as they repeat) in to it. If you put the 'delay in' level at a low
level, like 20%, and repeat the drum sequence over and over, and over the
course of several bars the delay sound builds in to this phased and chorused
out percussive loop.

It is a practice tool but it can be used as a limited looping device.  The
main constraints are the processor speed and type, OS type, media type and the
type of hardware being used to transfer the information.

How many of you are of the above persuasion? That is,
drum/percussion/loopism? 

Well, I know there a few, though just a few, of you out there. Just felt
like chattin' a little with youse. can mention what equipment you're
using for starters and we'll take it from there.


Hope to hear from you,

I use both together. The Vortex is more of a processor than a looper. Only
very short loops (1.6 seconds?) But it is a great sounding processor - delay,
chorus, flange, ring mod, rotary speaker, and some other very unusual things.
Very flexible and it works in stereo. Good Lexicon quality sound.

They are now hard to find, they have not been built for a few years. I bought
mine for $200, but now prices for used ones can be higher. I don't know what
your keyboard is worth, though, I play guitar.

I think it is a good process or to use with the Echoplex. I go:

Once again, I apologize for the mundane post, but I've recieved no replies
and I really need to get a good idea of the current used price of the
echoplex digital pro.  Anyone recently buy or sell one?  Just drop me a
quick note with the price paid, and I'll quit buggin' ya.

I think it's typically been so rare to see them for sale used that probably
nobody has much idea of what the price should be....

along those lines....

something that used to annoy me, and now I think is pretty cool, is when you
take a drum sequence and run the audio out of the sampler into an audio
looper (like echoplex or jamman). Sync the sequencer and looper with midi
clock, loop the sampler output with the audio looper (so they are the same
length), and play the two simultaneously. (so the sequencer and looper are
playing identical things....)

Midi clock is not nearly precise enough to maintain phase between two audio
signals, so each repetition of the loop will have a different phase
relationship between the two! It's great, you get these tinny, completely
out of phase sounds one time, solid, in phase drums the next time, something
in between another. It's usually pretty random in the way it shifts with
each repetition.

And there is the ever-popular, boring drum loop sequence reviver
trick....play your sequence, and have the audio looper grab a different
length with some metrical relationship, and let them loop. (for example, a 2
bar sequence, and 15 8ths in the looper, or 27 16ths, or whatever...) They
shift against each other each time through, making the boring sequence
suddenly much more dynamic and interesting. Carefully controlling the mix
lets you bring one time signature or the other into dominance, with the
other becoming more of an accent. You'll waste days playing with this, I
guarantee it.

Another thing I like is sampling the drum groove into the looper and
reversing it, while the original continues normally. Then do dj-like cross
cuts between the two to throw in reversed drum bits every now and then.
Hip-hop people do this a lot now though, maybe it's gotten a little cheesy.
(but that should be an encouragement!) On the echoplex you can do the cuts
with just the mix knob, but a dj mixer would be better.

Last favorite trick is not really with loops, but micro length delay times.
I use the sustain mode on the echoplex record function, and lightly tap the
record button to get loop lengths around 10msec. Turn overdub on and leave
it. play the drum sequence into the looper. Adjust the feedback and mix and
you get a whole variety of wild drum sounds. The delay times are short
enough to be tones themselves, which is part of the effect. Repeatedly
tapping the record button while the drum loop plays gives you slightly
different delay lengths, with different tones. You will waste at least a
week doing this......

And since I'm playing percussion quite a lot more than guitar these days
(albeit with considerably less skill :-), i'm really interested in how some
of you manage loops with live percussion playing. Up to now I've always used
the loopers along with sampled/sequenced drums....

As noted before (this comes up pretty often, it seems....) Windows/MacOS are
general purpose OS's that aren't designed for real-time performance. Hence
they have bad latency problems that make something like a decent real-time
audio looper (or real-time signal processor) pretty unlikely. (even using
DirectX...) If you got 20-50ms of latency out of a PC, you'd be doing really
well, but loop that 10 or 20 times and you've got quite a problem.....That's
why PC audio stuff tends to stick with single direction apps where you can
easily compensate for the latency problems. External boxes on the other
hand, will be designed specifically for real-time work. They can guarantee
very low latencies for the application since they don't have to worry about
all of the other things a general purpose OS is dealing with.

You can still play chords on a single "string" (row of keys), which leads
to many chord voicings impossible to play on an instrument with real strings.

It's http://catalog.com/starrlab/

For the truly sick, Starrlabs also offers a MIDI controller that has
hexagon keys laid out in a honeycomb-like configuration.  It's based on a 
design submitted by a customer who wanted a controller for microtonal 
applications.

All Starrlabs instruments offer deep programming options.  For example,
one could assign a chord to one drumpad in real-time, record and playback
MIDI LOOPS, and all kinds of other crazy stuff.  Well, I had to work this
to an on-topic zone somehow. :)

this is *strange*, 'cause when i was just a wee lad, i used to stick a

I'm just getting myself up & running with VST plugin development - rest

I had Harvey Starr build me a handhelp percussion controller about 3 
years ago.
here's my experience:

bad - 

I paid $900 up front & waited 15 months before I rec'd anything. It took 
numerous phone calls and during one of them he said "I've received death 
threats from people who've been waiting too long for their Z-Tars." This 
didn't make me very comfortable.

The Z-Bar was pretty much unplayable from an ergonomic standpoint I sent 
it back & got a refund.

good - 

His software kick ass - very, very flexible.

He did send me a demo low-end Z-Tar to play with while I was waiting - 
which a friend eventually bought from him.

In summary - Harvey is basically a nice guy & his Z-Tar * software are 
excellent but make sure you get a date from him as to when your gear will 
be built or better yet buy what's in stock. - the 30 day return is a nice 
policy.

You guys may already know about this, but have you ever checked out a
Zendrum (http://www.zendrum.com). They seem to have a couple models to span
several prices ranges.


I've seen them used live twice, Billy Cobham and Vinx (Jungle Funk). If I
had extra $$$ right now, I think I would get one just to check it out.

Hi,

Anyone interested in building a PC MIDI looper might want to take note of a
MIDI processing program/language for the PC -- "Building Blocks", by Paul
Swennenhuis (P.A.M.Swennenhuis@RC.RUG.NL).

A demo is available at:
http://midiworld.com/AuReality/software/building_blocks/

The language is graphical and modular. It runs under Windows NT or Windows
95/98. IMO, it is quite "Max-like" in its intent, although more limited
(and therefore easier to use), but you can do many Max-like MIDI processing
things with it -- and it runs on the PC, which, unfortunately, MAX doesn't.
For example, it has built in modules for MIDI recording and echoing, which
look like they could be strung together in some way to build a MIDI looper.
Regrettably, I don't have the time to look into this myself, or I would. 

All the best,

Howard

I've been working with Harvey Starr on the development of a "tap
guitar"...essentially a flamenco acoustic nylon string guitar, outfitted with
a series of midi trigger plates mounted on the top and rim of the
instrument...for use in "golpe" taps between rumba flamenca strums.  Since I
am both a drummer and a guitarist, I've searched for ways to integrate the
two, without just putting the transducers for acoustic tone inside the top of
the guitar.  I've been after more latin percussion sounds, etc., conga,
bongos, timbales, claves, etc....the system Harvey's building for me, will
have both onboard sound modules and remote midi capabilities.  I've applied
for a patent on the design, and trust that they will be made commercially
available for resale at some point in the future.

I had approached Zendrum with my concept on a number of occasions...they were
simply not interested in outfitting a guitar with Zendrum controls.  Harvey
Starr, on the other hand, welcomed the opportunity.  We have been working on
this for a long time, and it appears that we're nearing completion with it.
I'll let everyone know how it works out.  I've positioned the trigger plates
conveniently for the different tap/strumming techniques, and with the use of
my Oberheim Echoplex EDP's (stereo pair), I'll be able to get some real
interesting effects.  Additionally, the guitar is outfitted with RMC pickups
which will also drive the GR-30, GR-1 and VG-8...so, I hope to have an
orchestra in my hands, when I'm done.

I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Regards, Wayne Wesley Johnson

All those points are definitely very valid remarks.
"
Tone is the most subjective of topics" indeed!

"There may not be a perfect string, but if I read your message right, what
you mean is a string that played the infinitely highest harmonic content of
a string pluck/tap/hammer etc."

I don't pretend of course it is the explanation. The sound is definitely
different.

"When you tried the new 'light' set of strings, were they the same
age/cleanliness of the heavy ones, and had they had the same amount of use?
Any new set of strings is going to sounds much more 'alive' and 'tinkly'
than an old one. Are you sure that this was not what you were hearing?"

Well I used tons of different strings,  different steels, different alloys,
different gauge. The sound is clearly different to me, but more difficult to
manage. I mean, the lighter the string, the more pitch difference ther is when
the pressure of fretting is applied. Something you have to control. On a Stick,
where the frets are higher, it is enough to have a deep good vibrato.

"(...) but have noticed that a lot of a chapman stick's tone is caused the the
actual action of hitting the metal fret against the string, as opposed to
plucking the string with a plectrum or your fingers. Next time you have a stick
in your hands, try plucking the strings - it sounds a lot more like a guitar
that I thought it would."

Nice try :-)
But you can imagine I tap on guitars for years, and I also pluck my Stick very
often! The difference persist
Lighter gauge tend to me to give the sound I like and age quite less quick.
Besides, the lowest tension gives more pitch control, with the limitations I
exposed before. I must insist on this more..mmm... richer? sound. Richer doen't
stand right. More ringing perhaps?

one of my friends plays a huge dw drum together with yamaha a-3000 sampler
(loops, sounds, atmospheres), a lexicon jam man (loops) and a korg wave
drum. as control devices he's got an akai mpc-2000, a rimkat (or drumkat,
can't remember its name) with a few ddrum trigers (bd, sn, tt, ...) and a
boss dr5 drum computer.

he also works with some vintage effect pedals (for example he's got a
morley wahwah connected to his wave drum). 
he's got a godgiven ability to make really cool noises out of everything,
that gets in his hands.

if you wanna hear some of his' group's stuff, check out their hompage (but
their ain't much looping on these sound samples, 'cause these songs were
recorded a couple months after he got into looping, so please don't be
disappointed)

I know he used the 16-sec early in his career... He moved to the Digitech 
PDS-8000 later on... I saw him around 93-94 with a JamMan and LXP1 on a stool, 
but then saw him with the PDS-8000 back again more recently. He also had a Boss 
DD-3 on the floor... 

Just from my own experience, the JamMan lacks the cool time-knob-twisting 
weirdness which the 16-sec and PDS-8000 have. Bill Frissell and Nels Cline both 
really milk this aspect of their loopers to death!

Chris,
I recently bought one for $550 with the footpedal (&4mb of ram).  Used
EDP are rarely seen.  Be aware that if you buy an older one it may
need the ver 5.00 firmware ($45), or other minor changes like certain
resistor values in order to be identical to current production models.  

Kim discusses some of the changes over time (like clipping the ADC0804
leg) in the edp faq at
http://www.annihilist.com/loop/tools/echoplex/FAQ.html

hey all,

i know it's asking a lot, but i've a special request for anyone whose been
keeping a file on all the list's recent listening, reading, etc.: due to some
(still unknown) bugginess in my mail inbox (ugh), netscape has somehow dumped
all of the saved files from, like, early august through last week (ouch), which
included a comprehensive (sniff) set of everyone's lists...

so, if there is a kind-hearted soul among ye who wouldn't mind emailing whatever
ya got (a complete set would be, of course, ideal, but hey, beggars can't be
choosers...)

muchas gracias,

lance g.

He used to use the EH but that probably broke and he has a PCM 42 nowadays.
He doesn't loop rhythms, just layers of delay, sometimes sped up (octave
up)

Robb and others,

>on the MSP page at www.cycling74.com.
>
>it looks like it is coming out very soon.

Yes, pluggo is due sometime next month. Any MSP patcher can be turned into
a VST plug-in. For now Mac only.

For all those interested, Max/MSP IS being ported to Windows for release
late next year. So my reponse to those who have asked for a PC port of
Procrastination is - for now you'll have to wait.

Just to re-inforce what Kim has said in the past: a computer based looper
is not a replacement for a stand alone unit.

There is I/O latency in software, no way around it. Also lugging around a
computer to gigs is a real pain. If you need a reliable looper for live use
stick with hardware. If you want to take some risk and can live with the
limitations, then by all means jump on the software wagon. Robb has offered
to "road test" Procrastination. We will keep the list informed of any major
breakthroughs. With his help and suggestions from others, I hope to build a
very useable and flexible software looper. Just a warning, for now it's not
for everyone.

Ken

How'd you discover this?

-Jesse


The JamMan has a similar  undocumented feature, but only 440Hz (accurate for
tuning) and 1kHz.
I found this while investigating the JamMan diagnostic mode ( used for setting
midi
ch). Power up holding reset/bypass, hit tap ,turn mode knob till  13 appears,
hit tap again,turn mode knob to select 4 or 1  (440 or 1k), tap again.

I figured the Vortex might also have a diagnostic, I was quite surprised.
Using different settings at stage ii)  does different stuff , but mostly
useless:-
0C  Resets registers to the presets (nasty).
04 gives a lightshow when you turn the preset knob
09  takes you to the normal vortex operation

about a week ago, i went and saw ed chang "spin 17" at a show here in
pittsburgh, wonderfully wild and wacky, great on the edge of your seat music,
and i might add, ed is a really nice fellow......the last group on the show
was a pittsburgh based band, "organization re information", now on tour with
"man or astro-man".....they "ori" used nothing but power macs. refering back
to some older posts, it was really neat to see two guys and a gal standing
there playing computer keyboards....there was a good deal of looping going on
and the sounds (samples) were great, all of this done in real time....they
were using their own soft-ware, ive no idea as to what it was because i am
totally computer ill-literate. even though their music sounded like a group of
people playing synths sans keyboards it was a treat....with all this talk
about computer based loopers, if anyone would be interested in getting in
touch with these folks i will try to find their e-mail address, they may be
able share some ideas as to what they are using, let me know...........michael

for those of you interested, i found this on harmony-central today......"If
ACID caught your attention but it didn't fit into your budget, then you might
want to consider the newly released ACID pH1. This version doesn't have all
the features of the original ACID, but it has a list price of
$99.95"..........hope its not the brown stuff.......michael

Acid Ph1 is already shipping, is inexpensive and does most everything 
that people were doing with Acid anyway:  Same drop-a-loop interface as 
Acid, you can adjust envelopes, sweep filters, etc.  I would tend to do 
most of my sound twisting, etc in Sound Forge or some other similar 
program, anyway.  Looks just like Acid, too.


FWIW,

Doug

I have used both. The jamman sounds so much better it's shocking. The EDP
is very noisy. The EDP uses pre-emphasis/de-emphasis in their converter
topology, this means that any signals with a lot of high end, like from a
fuzzbox, will overload or alias like crazy. The EDP sounds subjectively
dull or cloudy compared to the jamman.

The EDP has a really amazing operating system. The 'multiply' feature is
really great. 

I really wish that they had done a better job with the EDP circuit board
layout, so that the fidelity was higher. The seem to use a decent converter
in the EDP, but Lexicon has such a great design team when it comes to
digital audio....

I think it is important to discuss this issue, since everyone I know who
owns one has complained about the EDP's sound quality, but nobody on this
list has brought this subject up.

this reminds me of a group called skot i saw at the fuse98 *typography*
conference last spring in san francisco; two or three people at high-end
workstations producing not only amazing sampled/looped soundscapes but realtime
video projections; their brief as follows:

tina frank works in vienna as a graphic designer (inwirements) and runs an
internet agency (u.r.l.), mathias gmachi is a member of farmers manual, whose
latest recordings, "explorers_we" have just been released by the or label in
london. as skot, frank and gmachi have directed several music videos for the mego
label; they have performed at the 1997 ars electronica festival, the 1997
viennale, and will create live projections for this year's sonar music festival
in barcelona.

interesting work in a very dada/cut-up (although i'm sure they wouldn't describe
it that way) vein.

Just to offer a non-"gear" thread...

Seems like my question, "What is the story of our age -- what is the music
that reflects it?" left most people without a reaction -- seeming either too
vague or too irrelivant.  OK.

Here's what i was thinking.  

Maybe:		Jazz was the "sound of the 20's - 50's"
		Rock was the "sound of the 50's - 70's"

In the 80's we experienced the start of a kind of post-modern melange of
things
In the 90's we're continuing along the same road -- but increasingly aided
with technology.

Seems to me that drum & bass and various IDM-oriented music best sum up the
age we live in:

Increasing in speed, relentless, fitting more and more intricacies into
smaller and smaller spaces, crowdedness, the comoditization of emotions such
that they are less trusted/needed and repetition, repetition, repetition.

So, it seems to me that Looping-Music is very much working within these
frames.

ANOTHER QUESTION:  

Can anyone direct me to reading (books / magazines) that may discuss the
relationship between societies and musics they produce (the chicken & egg
question that has interested me for a lifetime.)???

Thanks.

The story of the age is change and how rapidly change has come to the world's
civilization. A side bar is more on the economic and social aspects of culture,
music and the dominance or apparent dominace and transition of inlfuence from
one culture towards another and vice versa. The bigger story within that story
is where does it all go and who, why and where and when do the next steps take
place.

I think that there are 2 disticnt pulls happening right now. Things are wide
open and full of promise and also on the brink of being really shitty and
useless.

Music and Musicians are less important or relevant to "people" these days but at
the same time music "itself" is opening up to possibilities that were not
present before. I'm uncertain as to where that leads but i suspect it will be a
blurring between the lines of the whats real and whats a matter of artifice.

I also look at the world economies and the the spending power of the g6 nations
and base a lot of assumptions as to whats happening on economic info you can get
anywhere and i forsee rocky and shifting econmic times ahead which is always a
big boon to and for music and music making.

Now, thats nothing new or radically different cause the state of "everything"
has always been fluctuating or bouncing between sheer brilliance and or total
ignorance from the beginning of creation except that from where we stand now
music has never been in the position of being experienced as immediately or as
en masse as it presently can be experienced and created. And yes of course they
said that when the phonograph was created and the same for tv.

Repetition and simplicity and moreover context will and presently does have a
lot more weight where virtuosity and chops used to hold a dominion of sorts.

I feel that "right now" is only a drop of water from the tip of an iceberg that
will appear in perhaps the next 15-25 years coming into its own fully in
possibly 50-75 years from now ( In my own humble and unscientific supposition
that is :)

I think that the key to the future is kinda gonna be like "Can a musician/act or
entity establish something rapidly, deconstruct it and reinvent it just as soon
as it has appeared" ? Whatever it will be I get a funny feeling its going to be
arcade or videogame like terrain mirroring the cartoonish elements of
imagination that Music is already gravitating toward.

Another perspective I also firmly believe is that eno's little black box idea he
came up with is gonna be the standard or of norm. Generative music is the
future.  I sound like that neighbor telling dustin hoffman in the graduate that
he had one word for him: plastics  lol :) that you potentially would have or
could have put together that will be the "en masse" Generative Music will be the
standard for popular music in the form of software/applets we buy that will run
on either multiple hardware platforms or "Microsoft Only" platforms.

And yes, I'm crazy and opinionated too :)

John Price

ah-hah! Ah-Hah! AH-AHAH!!!  Thank you!  Thank you!!!  This confirms that some puzzling 
problems I've been trying to solve as from the EDP itself!

I play alot of high end stuff into my EDPs and I've had LOTS of trouble.  Just try a 
tambourine.  The input level shows everything is kosher but IT SOUNDS LIKE CRAP!  To control 
the distortion I've resorted to a Behringer compressor and side-chained in a high pass filter. 
 The tambourine sounds acceptable and my bass drum isn't compromised too much.  I can really 
hear the aliasing you mentioned when I play a ting-sha (sort of a heavy finger cymbal) into 
the EDP.

I agree.  The more I use the EDP, the more I appreciate the interface.

If you have this problem, it means you have the input level set too high,
and you are clipping the digital input. If you turn the input down a bit,
the problem goes away. Every person I've every dealt with who had this
complaint was happy after they knew how to set the input level right.
Personally, I use the echoplex with drum loops containing lots of cymbals,
and have no trouble with high end response at all. 

On older units, the problem was compounded by too much gain in the input, so
it was a little difficult to set properly. Most of the range of the input
volume knob was way too loud, and people tended to have it way too high.
That gain range was reset some time ago, so it's much easier to work with now. 

This has been covered here numerous times, and is also in the echoplex FAQ
on the website. If you have an older unit and want to change how the input
gain works, that mod is also in the FAQ.

I measured the Echoplex's audio characteristics on an Audio Precision meter.
>From memory (sorry, I don't have the details with me...they all get ~):

Signal-to-Noise Ratio (A-weighted): ~88dB
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (unweighted): ~80dB
Freq Response (+0/-3dB): 18Hz - 19.5KHz

If you have the input signal too high, you definitely see the frequency
response roll off in the high end. That's why it is important to set the
input level correctly. I typically use the loudest signal with the most high
end I expect to use (typically a crash cymbal, or a loud/clean skank guitar
thing) in a loop to set the level to where it does not clip.

Again, you have the input too high, and you are clipping the digital audio
path. Set the input level correctly on the Echoplex, and you won't have this
problem. Use the tambourine as a reference signal, and refer to your ears
before the Level LED. When the tambourine sounds fine in a loop, you are set.

BTW, it's not aliasing you are hearing, but the sound of a VCA clipping by
the excessive input level. It doesn't sound pretty, but the convertor is
recording it in the loop the way it gets it.

and FWIW, one of the most common complaints I heard about the jamman when it
first came out related to poor sound quality, especially too much noise. I
imagine they improved on that from the early units, as I didn't hear those
complaints later. maybe something to think about if you are looking for a
used one.

You think that's cool..check this out: Sonic Foundry is releasing an even 
cheaper version of ACID for about $50 bucks. The good part is that it'll 
be coming in different 'flavors' (DJ, Rock, etc...), and for your $50, 
you'll get a downscaled version of ACID and about 800 loops! 800 LOOPS! I 
also heard that some of these loops are totally cool, done by the likes 
of Bill Laswell, some well-known guitarists, etc. Funny thing is, the 
packages won't be available at music stores...they're going out to the 
gamer's market, like Best Buy, Comp USA, etc. Strange but true...

As always, I appreciate your response, Kim.  But have you tried a real tambourine?  I 
don't have problems with real cymbals and drums.  I definitely have problems with the 
tambourine and ting-sha.  When I turn the gain down enough for the tambourine everything 
else is far too low.  I'm using a Shure SM-57 and a Tascam 1024 mixer.  I have the EDP 
plumbed into the AUX 1 and returning to a line-level channel.  I am especially interested 
in your response to trying a real tambourine.

I received my brand new EOP yesterday. Having more or less experience with
the tc 2290, the jamman and the Boomerang I must say it has incredible
features (Multiply, Insert, Undo Overdub, multi loops etc.) that take the
whole process of loopage into a different league. Am impressed with all
those little things you can adjust ('round', quantizise etc. etc.) - too
bad you can't store presets (five or so would do).

Sound quality was no problem at all (although I play guitar only and
tambourine can be a bitch to pick up) nor was setting IN/OUT levels.
Generally I try to get along with the least amount of boxes, shortest
connections etc. in my FX loop chain and nowadays put nothing between the
instrument and the preamp - sounds much better. The 'Rang is a little noisy
but I compensate for that by putting it way back in the signal chain just
before only one of the power amp's stereo inputs (since it is mono) leaving
the other channel untouched.

Best, Andreas (Looking forward to my first EDP'd solo gig next week)

Coupla months ago Harper's had an article called 'Planet of Weeds'. Check 
it out. Lots of parallels with what's quoted here, gives me the idea that 
today's music is an expression of the idea of a 'Planet of Weeds'.

Best,

Mike (who thinks Harper's is the best rag on the planet of weeds)

John raises the Eno generative black-box aspect.  
It's been a while since I read about this -- what exacty is this?

David

P.S. Still looking for reading discussing the relationship between societies

Dear David,

	For me the best way to figure out how a society or a culture generates its
music was to actually be there for a time and to have friends along the way
who were from the area (Kenya, Turkey, Greece, Italy and Germany) who could
patch up misconceptions and help out with some ideas.  Now, I am not saying
that I have that much knowledge in the field, but looking to the culture of
someplace that is considered "foreign" really helps out.  Another thing that
is a bit more helpful is learning the languages.  This might be a bit over-
kill, but it does give a good basis of comparison.

	Hope this helps out.

		Lee-ohki.

I'd have to disagree a bit here.  If there's any type of music that
would follow your jazz and rock examples, both in terms of social impact
and in terms of its musical role, I'd say it's got to be rap/hip-hop. 
The idea of a "post-modern melange of things" seems like an apt
description of what happens when you start scouring the sum total of
recorded history for sound sources, which is what hip-hop is based on. 
The sampler has had a comperable impact over the last two decades in the
same way the electric guitar impacted things in the '50s and '60s, and
the synthesizer in the '70s and '80s.

I'd also say that pretty much any modern sample-based (and a lot of
non-sample based) music owes something to hip-hop.  Drum & bass, for
instance, wouldn't even exist without it.  THe ubiquitous '90s
alterna-rock drumbeat started showing up a couple of years after is was
heard as a sample of "Funky Drummer" in a million different hip-hop
tunes, and there are all sorts of non-rap acts copping various musical
and visual signifiers from hip-hop nowadays.  Hell, just walk outside,
and see how long it takes you to spot somebody sporting a pair of
oversized baggy jeans!

ah, I think what you are encountering is that the natural dynamic range of
the tambourine is so very wide. I guess that's a problem that you have to
deal with when using percussion instruments electronically. I don't know
exactly what the tambourine response is, but I've seen snare drum transients
measured over 140dB! I'd guess a tambourine would be similar or greater. A
140dB transient is more than any digital gear can manage, so the question is
always going to be how badly does it fail to handle this. The echoplex,
unfotunately, sounds crappy when it clips, so using some compression to tame
the large attacks a little is probably a good idea. 

You probably don't need to compress everything though, just the tambourine
and ting-sha since those have a problem. That will probably help them sound
better in other gear too, although it's likely not as dramatic. The Echoplex
uses a VCA to do quick analog cross-fades when you start and end loop
recording, which helps prevent pops at the seam between beginning and end of
the loop. This works great and solves a problem that all the other loopers
seem to suffer from, but this same part sounds horrible when it clips. So
it's a tradeoff there, I guess. In other gear you'd probably just be
clipping opamps somewhere, which won't be so bad but not great either.

I have used tambourine sounds, but they were samples or straight off a CD.
So they were already compressed a bit in comparison to a live version. They
sounded fine in the Echoplex, I didn't have any trouble with them as long as
the input level was set correctly.

interesting thing about hip-hop and another post about going to live in a
culture to understand it's music....

I grew up in a white, culturally homogenized and pastuerized american
middle-class suberb. Did not like or understand hip-hop then. (liked heavy
metal, and later jazz-fusion, of course - the theme musics of suburbia.)

moved away to a university famed (and attacked regularly) for it's
multiculturalism and diversity. started liking hip-hop. Mostly
"message-oriented" hip-hop like PE, KRS-one, Paris, etc. still didn't "get
it" very well.

For the last 5 years, lived in a poor, mostly black part of Oakland. It's so
different from where I grew up that I guess you could think of it as another
country in a way, or another culture anyhow. Got to know people a bit, feel
much more comfortable there now. And I find I'm completely happy watching
hardcore hip-hop videos on soulbeat and "the box". Go figure....music has a
deep cultural connection to the people who make it. get to know the people,
and the music starts to make sense.

Now, I guess from experiences like this, I don't find myself reacting to new
music with the almost instinctive "It's different -> I don't understand it
-> I hate it -> this is not music -> what kind of losers would make trash
like this" response. Now it's more like, "It's different -> why? -> what
about that culture resulted in this music? -> how does this music convey
those themes? -> can I learn anything from that?" 

Other things about our age:
- world population doubles every 40 years, and it's pretty damn crowded now.
- receiving way more information than is possible to understand,
mediastreams are constant.
- fundamentalism vs everyone else, world wide
- mass migration
- previously isolated cultures getting mixed together, trying to maintain
identity and figure out how to relate to each other

I have no idea what the musical results will be, but I expect it will be
pretty damn screwy. :-)

Kim,
The circuit is so noisy that you really have to set the gain too close to
the headroom limit, even with the input gain mod.

Excellent words to live by there, Kim.... heres the same question with a
different 
slant... "what about this culture resulted in THIS music?" ie. looping etc

for me i guess the answer would be the associated isolationism... that i use a
guitar 
is probably a remnent of the whole rock thing.

but, how much of music may be put down to cultural change and how much to
reaction to 
existing music? i wonder this about non-western (especially indian) music.. (i
wonder 
how much the raga has changed over the last i dunno... 1000 years) it seems
every musical action has an associated musical reaction... was (is?) grunge
really an angsty reaction to the society of the late eighties or bland late
eighties pop? is hip hop some search for urban identity/culture or just a
catchy beat? 

i havent been "listening" to other decades as closely as the nineties (that is
i've been *in* the nineties more ;) but does anyone else reckon the changes on
the whole musicscape have been pretty darn fast/big compared to the
eighties?... metal became industrial, hip hop exploded into a myriad of dance
styles, grunge became bland pop, retro went from 60's to 70's to 80's.... (i'm
talking popular stuff - my search for cds over the decade reached ever greater
spirals of obscurity and hard-to-getness) 

hmmm maybe im just getting old (boy, things sure were different before all
these new fangled changes...)

Hmmmm, sounds like they could have used Opcode Max to me....

I saw a pretty interesting show in SF last month, in a 
loft space south of market the saturday the AES show 
opened. Live music and video synched together, both 
generated from some very complex Max 
patches on separate computers.  Too bad I couldn't 
stay late enough to hear the oberheim expander quartet :)

Hi Loopers,

It's time for the annual Halloween loop.

Just set up your looping right and a few Marshall stacks on your front
porch, create a scary loop and watch your neighbors cringe as they bring
their kids by for trick or treating.

I've gotta agree with Kim.  It's getting pretty damn weird.  Seems like
cultures are moving in all sorts of directions at once and music reflecting
that.   Fads, fads, fads... There less and less of a universally appealing
music / star.  Niches, niches, niches...  

Maybe that's the theme of our age?  With so may of us there are
niche-cultures the size of entire cultures from 20-40 years ago...

You're right about the tambourine dynamic range, Kim.  What's more,
tamborine is RICH in frequencies above 20 Khz, all the way to the 50 KHz
range.  This will get past the anti-aliasing filters, rendering them less
effective.  So, in addition to compressing the tambourine, heavy filtering
of the highs above 15Khz (or compressing those highs) would possibly help.
This is one of those special cases where higher digital sampling frequency
would be of great advantage.

ah, I think what you are encountering is that the natural dynamic range of
the tambourine is so very wide. I guess that's a problem that you have to
deal with when using percussion instruments electronically. I don't know
exactly what the tambourine response is, but I've seen snare drum transients
measured over 140dB! I'd guess a tambourine would be similar or greater. A
140dB transient is more than any digital gear can manage, so the question is
always going to be how badly does it fail to handle this. The echoplex,
unfotunately, sounds crappy when it clips, so using some compression to tame
the large attacks a little is probably a good idea. 

You probably don't need to compress everything though, just the tambourine
and ting-sha since those have a problem. That will probably help them sound
better in other gear too, although it's likely not as dramatic. The Echoplex
uses a VCA to do quick analog cross-fades when you start and end loop
recording, which helps prevent pops at the seam between beginning and end of
the loop. This works great and solves a problem that all the other loopers
seem to suffer from, but this same part sounds horrible when it clips. So
it's a tradeoff there, I guess. In other gear you'd probably just be
clipping opamps somewhere, which won't be so bad but not great either.

I have used tambourine sounds, but they were samples or straight off a CD.
So they were already compressed a bit in comparison to a live version. They
sounded fine in the Echoplex, I didn't have any trouble with them as long as
the input level was set correctly.

I like to hear that!  You know, you guys already are batting 1000 as far as I'm concerned.  It's hard to 
describe how much pleasure I've derived over the past few year from looping via the EDP.  Many years 
ago, I used an old TEAC 4 track for awhile but I gave up looping because such "primitve" technology got 
in the way.  I find the EDP so incredibly easy to use, in comparison, that it usually doesn't get in the 
way of my creativity.

But enough of my effusions...since you brought up the future of the EDP, I've been meaning to share 
these thoughts:

How about a new additional unit, I'll call the "EDP Helper?"  I'll try to explain it's proposed features 
without too much meandering.

1) The EDP is wonderful as a stand-alone unit.  A pair of EDPs also works very well for stereo.  What I 
want to do, however, is to use several in a synchronized fashion.  The paradigm here, probably due to my 
history of tape machine usage, is to view multiple EDPs as tracks on a multi-track recorder.  Of course, 
because of the nature of solid-state, digital recorders like the EDP, you'd expect them to do things 
tape recorders couldn't do.  The "EDP Helper" would have many features specifically designed to operate 
multiple EDPs.  These features would include manipulation of MIDI clock timing, starting and stopping 
loops (perhaps sequencing through the memories of an EDP, e.g., do {play loop from MEM 1 twice, followed 
by loop from MEM 2} ) and a user interface specifically designed for multiple EDPs.

2) As a central control, the "EDP Helper" would also have MIDI sequencing features (at a basic level) in 
order to support changing parameters and operating modes of the EDPs.  Players would use the "EDP 
Helper" instead of a full-featured sequencer to change, for example, the number of beats/8ths for a 
particular EDP.  This sequencing feature, as well as other features, could perhaps be optionally 
controlled by a nifty GUI program on Mac or PC.

3) The display of the "EDP Helper" would supplement the EDP display.  For example, I could really use a 
display that shows where I am in the loop.  It could be as simple as a "count-up" which is reset at the 
loop start (similar to the regular EDP display when recording).  The player could select what kind of 
information to display and which "slave" EDP would be the source.

4) The audio looping features of the "EDP Helper" would be light-weight when compared to the EDP.  For 
example, when I use multiple EDPs in a synchronized fashion, I designate one of them to function as the 
"master" MIDI clock source.  I play a simple pattern into the master, many times just a shaker, clave, 
or bass drum pattern.  I don't need to do things like INSERT, NEXT LOOP, and so forth.  I use the 
"master" EDP simply as the MIDI clock source.  Most times, after I build synchronized loops on other 
EDPs, I fade out the master EDP for the duration of the piece.  Conversely, if somebody only had an "EDP 
Helper", they could still do useful looping with it.  This would expand the market for an "EDP Helper" 
beyond owners of multiple EDPs.

As described above, the "EDP Helper" would be very heavy on the control and display features and light 
on the audio feature.  Perhaps, it could even be implemented totally in software.

Your thoughts???

	Just a brief note to annouce the completion of "The Three Ravens" - an album of 11 traditional songs from Scotland, England, & Ireland.  Arrangments vary in style from traditional acoustic to Celtic Rock and on to eclectic textures featuring instruments from around the world.  And yes. . . LOOPING IS USED in a number of the tracks (some obvious and some quite subtle).
	To hear RealAudio clips go to the website:  http://www.aracnet.net/~tianmus/3%20Ravens%20Title.htm .  Should any visitors happen to particularly like the music, there is an order form on the website (no hard sell here, and I certainly don't want to ignite any debates on CD prices - I feel it is  reasonably priced at $15 CANADIAN plus shipping).  Reviews have been good so far.  Let me know what you think.

	Cheers,

		Jon Grant

Thanks for this information.  It occurs to me that maybe I should just use a really cheap mic. ;)

I disagree. The Jamman does not have these problems, and it has a slightly
lower sampling rate. The problem in the EDP are the analog electronics and
the poor layout. 

On the Analog side there is NO anti-alias filter on the input before the
converter. This, in addition to the pre-emphasis, which starts boosting the
high frequencies around 200HZ  at a rate of 6dB per octave makes the input
very sensitive to aliasing.

I experimented with modifying the pre-emphasis/de-emphasis filter, but
found the noise floor so obnoxious that I left it stock. The noise I am
describing is the result of poor layout and grounding on the PC board. Lots
of metallic clocking artifacts.

The Jamman has a very nice LRC filter on both the input and the output. I
have never heard it get nasty, even when overdriven.

Please remember that I don't work for Oberheim or Lexicon. 
It is my hope that Oberheim will look into the possibility of redesigning
the EDP. The AD1848 converter is quite horrible by todays standards. 

The EDP software is absolutely brilliant. The EDP audio design is
stombox-esque crap.

I'm sorry that all this has made Kim so defensive. I hope that he will sit
down with an open mind and listen to the Jamman and the EDP side by side.

To follow up on the music and culture thread...

There's an article in the current issue of _Spin_ magazine (the one with
rock/rap band Korn wearing a bunch of gorilla suits [!] on the cover)
called "What the White Boy Means When He Says 'Yo!'" or something to
that effect.  It's a pretty in-depth analysis of the route hip-hop has
taken to becoming mainstream music in America, and takes a look at the
cultural and racial ramifications of its entry into white suburban
culture.  I haven't read all of it yet but it looks very promising for
those interested in following up on this issue.  Also in the same
magazine is a review of a current book on the same subject; I believe
the title is "Hip-hop America" or something along those lines.

I highly recommend the above - and this year I'm incorporating an old
recording that most folks have already heard samples from for years, in film
and music, "The Language and Music of the Wolves," (Tonsil Records, are they
existent?) which was a "members' bonus" from the American Museum of Natural
History back in 1971.  Amongst other albums this stuff can be heard on is
Pink Floyd's "Dogs", from "Animals" (1977) - and, not so strangely, I
haven't found anyone who ever credited the recordings on this vinyl, in
their own work.

I'm racing against the clock now, but hope to have some snippets available
on the Halloween page (http://www.earthlight.net/Halloween) - and, for those
not in the mood to put together a loop for answering the door, might I offer
my "Spooked" track, available for listening and downloading (RealAudio
format) at http://www.earthlight.net/Studios of course. :)

Now all I have to do is come up with a proper dedicatee for this week's
Loop!

I don't think Kim's defensive at all.  However, with statements like:

"The EDP audio design is stombox-esque crap."

I would probably get defensive.  To think that someone might not would 
be naive -- and that has nothing to do with "PC-speech thought-control".  
Just simple email etiquette.  We all know that email is often 
interpretted differently that the author intended.  How about: "The EDP 
audio design could be improved".  Says the same thing.

So far in the debate (and all posts I've seen from Kim) I've been 
impressed with Kim's suggestions, concern, and general level of customer 
service.  As a future purchaser of either the EDP or the Jamman, I'd 
love to see someone from Lexicon (or an engineer who's worked on the 
Jamman) participate in this list with the same vigor.  Customer service 
goes a long way in my purchasing decisions.  In that arena the EDP is 
winning hands down.

well, first of all, this is an odd statement:

because the echoplex does not use that part. That is a lousy part,
extremely noisy, which is why it's not in there. If yours had this part,
then someone else modified it. It wasn't stock.


Secondly, I think you are rather dramatically overstating the case here,
for reasons I fail to understand. Your experience clearly does not match
mine or other peoples, nor does it match test measurements made in the lab.
Perhaps there was something wrong with the unit you were using?

I would suggest that you consider reading datasheets before you make really
stupid statements like this. As with practically all modern digital audio
convertors, the convertors in the echoplex have built in anti-alias
filters. The datasheets from Crystal describe these at length. You might
want to consider doing a little research before making completely incorrect
assertions like this.

The convertor's built in filters are quite good. They have a very steep
rolloff, with stop band rejection of 74dB by .6Fs and passband ripple of
less than +/-.1dB. Designing a discrete filter like that would be absurdly
expensive, which is why nobody designs audio circuits that way anymore. In
addition to this, however, there is an RC filter at the input to the
converter adding a bit more anti-aliasing filtering, and additional
filtering around 3 of the opamps prior to the codec. Now, how does this
equal "NO anti-alias filter"?


>This, in addition to the pre-emphasis, which starts boosting the
>high frequencies around 200HZ  at a rate of 6dB per octave makes the input
>very sensitive to aliasing.

First of all, it's a shelving pre-emphasis/de-emphasis filter, so the boost
is not that dramatic. It's there because we wanted to improve upon the
performance of the audio codec used, by shaping the noise floor based on
typical music signals. In most cases, I think this works great, and gives
us A-weighted numbers exceeding the expected performance of the part.

Secondly, your beloved JamMan circuit also uses a shelving
preemphasis/de-emphasis filter, with similar characteristics to the one in
the Echoplex.

Thirdly, as noted before, the distortion you heard is not aliasing. You
could demonstrate that very easily to yourself with a signal generator and
a scope. (which I guess you did not do?)  I tested for this extensively
with good test gear, and all my measurements showed the circuit did not
have any significant aliasing problems. This is in line with Crystal's
datasheet, so their part performs correctly.

If you had used that generator and scope, you could have seen that the
distortion you heard happens prior to the audio codec, in the VCA. When
this part is overloaded, the distortion sounds bad. However, when the part
is not overloaded (ie the input level is set right), everything sounds fine
throughout the audio bandwidth.


>I experimented with modifying the pre-emphasis/de-emphasis filter, but
>found the noise floor so obnoxious that I left it stock.

If you found the noise floor so obnoxious, as you say, did you have gains
set otherwise correctly? An awful lot of people are using the echoplex in
all manor of situations without finding the noise floor obnoxious, how is
it that they are successful and you are not? Maybe you could explain the
specific setup and settings that you used, so we could see if there was a
problem.


>The noise I am
>describing is the result of poor layout and grounding on the PC board. Lots
>of metallic clocking artifacts.

The layout used was reviewed by Crystal's application engineers. In fact,
by the guy who wrote the application note on layout for Crystal. He thought
it was fine. There are certainly ways to improve upon the layout, but they
would all make the cost go way up, and I doubt they would result in much
change in audio quality.

Also, yours is a remarkable assertion. Given that the test numbers show
performance reaching the limits of the audio part used, wouldn't it make
more sense to look to that particular part as the limiting factor, instead
of other parts of the circuit? Since you report no data, I'm assuming you
did no tests on the analog portions of the board with the codec bypassed.
Granted, the part used is not the best quality part available, but for the
cost I think it performs quite reasonably.


>The Jamman has a very nice LRC filter on both the input and the output. I
>have never heard it get nasty, even when overdriven.

Personally, I was rather shocked to see an LRC filter and a completely
discrete conversion scheme in the Jamman. Nobody has done that since the
mid-eighties. LRC filters are problematic, since they are very expensive
and their characteristics can change dramatically as the parts age. Also,
the Jamman uses only a 5-pole filter for anti-alias, which is generally not
considered enough by modern audio standards. I believe the filter in the
echoplex's codec is 12-pole.

Also, Lexicon's discrete A/D design adds some coloratation to the sound.
Most people find the result pleasing, so that's fine, and probably has a
lot to do with why people like Lexicon gear. Personally, I prefer to do
digital audio as transparently as possible. I would prefer to add my own
coloration.


>I'm sorry that all this has made Kim so defensive. I hope that he will sit
>down with an open mind and listen to the Jamman and the EDP side by side.

I have done that listening test, with sophisticated test gear. Feel free to
do the same, and report some numbers. The quality of the JamMan is fine,
but I found the echoplex to beat it. Defensive? sure. I don't take kindly
to people who see the internet as a place to spread misinformation and make
flaming, unwarrented attacks on other people, companies, or products. In my
opinion, that's very irresponsible, and should be defended against.

Sorry, I can't reveal any more. If you had that much information I would
have to kill you.

	I lived in Scotland and England for most of my childhood, so I had many occasions to visit Wales.  It's a fantastic place and I know many songs >from there, but the older songs (most of the songs on my album are well over a century old) are in a dialect I wouldn't even attempt to pronounce, so I avoided them.  I do have a small but nice collection of more modern songs from Wales that I draw from for gigs, however.  Maybe my next Celtic album. . .
	Notice I did not make any cliche "Close-Harmony Choral Singing" jokes.
	Next year I should be swinging a musical tour through the U.K. with my Celtic band, so perhaps some of you Welch Loopers can re-educate me in the ways of good repertoire.

		Cheers,

			Jon Grant

hey roberto...

in my duo.. my percussionist - who hates to type on this thing - uses a Kat
midi controller to trigger a Nano-synth (which we both think sounds
amazing)
she also sometimes plays those 80s Boss pads (DRP I, II, III) - which are
also great and quite fine-tunable... an added feature of these is that a
mic can be mixed into their output, so you can loop any sound that goes
into the mic, percussion, voice, whatever...

for looping she uses the floor model digitech 8 sec delay, sometimes also
the 2 sec one.

sometimes she uses the roland sequencer MSQ 100, the first midi seq i
believe...

there ya have it - lo tech nonsense.

I'll kick anyone's ass who even looks at Kim cross-eyed.  And I own a
JamMan.

One of the all around coolest guys around, helped design one of the coolest
boxes around.  Don't like the EDP.  Build your own.  Kim did.

Actually, Matthias Grob gets most of that credit. He's the genius. I'm just
the one who mouths off a lot. :-)

I did some experiments with my brandy-new EDP today - I've come to the 
comclusion that relying on the LED as an indication of sufficient level 
doesn't work. If I set my input to turn the LED yellow/orange at my peaks 
I am guaranteed wierd clipping on the attacks of certain ( mostly high) 
frequeancies. I find that the EDP input level should be left at about 25% 
of maximum (9 o'clock) - works fine for me then..

BTW this is with all other levels  set to unity gain.

I'm having sooo much fun with this thang.....

I'm not a scholar of Indian classical music but I do study tabla (& some 
raga) and accompany some classical soloists from time to time. My 
impression is that the music has constantly changed over time and much 
like western music the changes are brought about by technology, commerce, 
war. migration etc...

One attitude that I admire is that tradition isn't  scoffed at ( as in 
"been there, done that" ) but augmented.  To help as music evolve is 
thought of as a duty to all of the teachers who passed the tradition on. 
One of my teachers said recently "being a rooted in and maintaining a 
tradition while at the same time striving for new sounds is  not 
contradictory"

Of course I've only recently started to appreciate this viewpoint - maybe 
another 20 yearsof practice & I'll gain a bit more wisdom...

Kim,
 Sorry to flame the EDP.... I was a bit dissapointed by the sound quality,
that's all. 
Oddly, the schematic that Gibson sent me a month ago shows the AD1848
codec.....
I noticed a considerable improvement in the sound when I bypassed the VCAs.
Unfortunately they seem integral to the operation of the unit. I appologize
for the 'incorrect assertion' about the anti alias filter. The data sheet
is no longer available on that part. My schematic shows no additional
filtering as you described.
Perhaps someone should revise your documentation so that people like me
don't go off half cocked...

<x-rich>Hi,


I downloaded the demos of both the full $395 verion, "Acid", and the $100
version, "Acid PH 1". I tried them both and they are very similar in
"look and feel".


There is no features matrix at the Sonic Foundry site, so it was
difficult to compare them in detail. I noticed that "PH 1" doesn't take
plugins, and that it doesn't permit stretching of samples. Does anyone
know of there are any other differences? Will there be an upgrade price
when going from "PH 1" to the full version? 


Thanks,


Howard

</excerpt>Just to make sure that everybody understands the different

the following versions should be available within the next couple of
weeks. : ACID Rock, DJ.

also heard that some of these loops are totally cool, done by the likes

thats great kim!! i wish with all my heart more people would see things
this way, on both sides!!!! we'd have more time to make music and not be
negative....there is very good hip hop along with the not so good - what
rock fans have to realize is - that's true of every form of music!!!!

hey all

Just a quick note - i'll be performing at Knitting Factory Sat Oct 31 at
10pm E.T.

Doing an hour of great Zappa music... i'll even try to sneak a loop in! 
We will have Ed Palermo, sax, as our guest - he leads the EP Big Band which
does 19 piece horn arrangements of ZAppa. Playing after us at 1130 will be
Micheal Ray's Cosmic crewe - he was Sun Ra's trumpeter..

hope you can listen in at:

http://www.knittingfactory.com

just go there and click the LIVE link.... of course you all have realaudio,
it seems!!

see ya - hope you surf in!

Hi,
Interesting that the subject of the music of our time has strayed to 
Indian Raga (>JMW). Speaking as a red haired celt I have a fascination 
for Indian, Persian and Egyptian music. Maybe multiculturalism and the 
percieved shrinking world is at least one sign of these times.

I am planning to get an EDP in the near future. What are the relative pros
and cons of controlling it via a midi foot pedal vs. the dedicated floor
unit? If the midi pedal does the same job, I would prefer to get one of
these for other purposes as well. There was some discussion months back
about what pedals are recommended but lost the info. What models are
recommended? Is midi timing as tight as the dedicated pedal buttons? 

Appreciate any comments or links. (did a search on the web page but couldn't
zero on on this}.
