Re: Ritchie Blackmore looping



Wow thats all so interesting guys, I too love the sound of Deep Purple, I remember coveting secretly an old tape, being in and amongst Pun rockers in my early days, I wasnt really allowed to listen to that stuff... but one of the reasons I could never remember the chords to White Riot or Borstal Breakout in my first ever band was that I was secretly learning Highway Star.. now THAT I could play...

And weirdly, I too was using a tape recorder, I still have it! But not as an echo-machine, (Although it did become one half of my Enotronics system later) just as a guitar amp!

Infact when I could afford to buy an amp, instead of getting a combo, which were trendy at the time, I got an old HH 4x12 and just plugged the tape recorder in... it was 10 watts and loud enough! I never knew it was a famous technique!!!

Im off to the GR55 to see if I can emulate the sound of a Tascam4000DS
