Re: Group of people looping. Is there such thing ?

[Mark Sottilaro <sine@zerocrossing.net>]

I've been in a number of groups like this and we always came down to having to sync to a central midi clock and play to a beat or click.  No video of it though.  Buy yourself a sequencer that spits out midi clock and a midi splitter and experiment.  That reminds me, I've got a few of those bad boys I can sell on ebay now...

Sounds like you need one MIDI source as your click and a splitter to route that to all your loop devices?

Hi guys,

 

My idea is having a group with drums, guitar, bass and sax with different loops totally in sync. More of a techno pattern approach. I am not really shure if this is possible at all.

We tried some approaches but it was really hard and didn’t quite work out as I wanted it to.

 

I have seen tons of videos from guitar players, bass player or singers playing drones or looping themselves. I have not seen a group of people looping in sync though.

Any live footage would be very welcome.

 

Greetings Jens

Betreff: Two New Looping Videos (Y2K6 & BEMF 2)

 

I have two new looping videos to share (one is not so new, but wasn't available until recently).

 

1) Y2K6: Krispen Hartung (guitar and laptop) & Rick Walker (percussion); excerpts of the last set on Saturday night; this is the music and video behind the picture of the two of us in the recent Guitar Player ariticle. Thanks to Barry Cleveland for sending me the DVD!  This is me on my PRS hollow body, my laptop (with Mobius and various VSTs), and the Boss VF1 for amp simulation and ring mod

2) 2nd Annual Boise Experimental Music Festival (April 27, 2007): Krispen Hartung (mandolin and laptop) & Vincent Miresse (percussion); most of the effects processing the mandolin on this one are from Reaktor, and a few max/msp patches in VST format; I hadn't converted to my pure max/msp system at the time of this festival
