Re: Repeater Bump / gilmour loops

["simeon harris" <simeonharris@hotmail.com>]

if i remember rightly, i was the first person to bring the infamous 
repeater 
"bump" to the attention of this forum ("bump" was the word i coined for it)

i think it has to do with how the repeater tries to join the two ends of 
the 
wav file together and how the waveforms don't line up correctly. it's much 
more obvious on low frequency sounds, because the waveforms are larger and 
less likely to match up. i bought two d2's for seamless ambient loops 
because of it

concerning gilmour's harmonised reverb pads...coincidentally i wrote a 
patch 
a few weeks ago that creates harmonised reverb pads using a cc pedal and 
it 
works great - the harmonies are generated by the g-force and they run into 
the eclipse set on an infinite delay / reverb patch at 100% wet. i also 
use 
the d2's to do this by swelling chords into a muti-tap delay set on 
infinite 
feedback. having lots of delay repeats set various time intervals helps to 
smooth out the pad so that you hardly get any rhythmic artifacts in the 
pad 
at all
