One time I was playing in a small room where there were 15-20 people, and coming off a break I intentionally but discreetly let the sound of the audience's ethyl-augmented socializing in through a mic onto a short loop of seven seconds or so, and layered it up a couple of times so it sounded like more hubbub but not so much that individual words/sentences were obliterated beyond recognition. I kept the fader down so you couldn't hear the loop; it looked like I was just getting ready to start playing again... Midway through the next piece, I faded in the babel-loop, mixing it prominently over the very sparse loop I'd been playing. It was interesting to watch the light bulbs switch on over (some of) their heads and big grins when they realized why the voices sounded familiar! They didn't quiet down any, though... 8^P -t- __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
