Re: Percussive Loopers



Title: RE: Percussive Loopers
tom,
yea, my friends have taken to calling me Galactus (God of Gear). I only wish I had an extra 12 hours in the day to play with all those toys.
 
BTW, what's the deal with the Indigenous Planet Percussion Camp? Is that the Roy Wooten's Nature & Drums experience? I totally missed out on that, heard about it after the fact. Will it be happening again this year?
ALSO, did I hear a rumor that you were going to be coming to KOSA in Vermont this year? You know Aldo has 2 WAVE DRUMS, maybe one for each of us? (nah, he'd never sell them).
 
I'm hoping to get my website up later this year (mc2band.com), but I've said that before. If I ever do there'll be mucho pics posted of 'Electric Billy Land', as well as mp3's from the forthcoming CD (E=).
 
What are you triggering these days with the Zendrum? I'm looking to set mine up as a controller to use with LIVE & Reaktor (been triggering Battery lately, but I haven't got the Latency correct on the laptop...I'm at about 20ms now, but need to be below 12ms. I probably need to dish out for the RME Multiface).
 
Glad to see that there a few more percussive loopers on the list as of late.
BC
