I agree with
Per...thats what this list should be all about, tips n
tricks!! 1) > . The
Sus-Guitar-Synth //snip// I use this alot,
maybe I use a slightly larger loop tho, and play quite
regular strums over the top... BUT with guitar channel MUTED, then I hammer as
fast as I can on the SUS Replace button on my FCB1010, the guitar chords chop in
and are only heard in the loop and slowly (when I change chord, the new chord
replaces the first in little snippets... 2) ANOTHER: (maybe I nicked
this one off you Per?? Read a post from you ages ago,
and I’m not sure if this is what you were talking about, but I ended up with
this... its a GOODIE!) For those Repeater AND EDP
owners: Program your foot controller with the following pedals. 1st pedal record
on BOTH edp AND repeater
(using note for edp and prog
ch for the repeater) 2nd pedal record for the EDP and
DELETE for the Repeater (this will be your ERASE both machines one one foot press button... you need it, remember to HOLD DOWN
pedal for EDP long press) and 3rd Overdub on the EDP and Record on the Repeater
(Over dub IS the record button on the Repeater. Now... depending on how you
are synching them together,and your setting for 8ths notes, you can record a
phrase and the edp will loop it AS normal, but the
Repeater will loop it TWICE as slow, or 4 times as slow.. Now its tricky, and
weird, so I wouldn’t suggest the technique in church with your Christian Rock
band, but... on glitch nite at the Klinker ( 3) And Now a daring one, not
for the faint hearted, or someone with expensive speakers, can be risky.. cos it involves making a feedback
loop (we like them don’t we?) between the edp AND the
repeater... 1.Make initial LONG loop on
both loopers, (with loopers
synched together) pitch the repeater tracks up (or down if your angry)AND TRACK
SLIP the repeater a few bars, THEN, send the EDP to the Repeater and the
repeater to the EDP, and hit overdub on both... start playing.. and wait for
your playing to cross to the repeater, loop delayed and pitched, transfer itself
to the edp, and back again, pitch up again.. and on we go, higher higher higher, till your wings melt and you have to DO SOMETHING ..
ANYTHING!!! STOP/UNDO/REPLACE on BOTH machines!! My use of this also involves
a Filter Factory, that filters the Repeater sound before it comes back to the
EDP and I end up with a “High in pitch high in tone” angelic ethereal cloud
hovering above the music... but it can just as easily become a chainsaw fight in
a Cess Pit, in other words, a right
mess! Enjoy, and mind yer Genelecs!! Mark www.markfrancombe.com |
