GR-55 tip

Set up a "kill switch" on the CTL pedal.
Set the XPR pedal to control ping-pong delay feedback.
Now stuff odd "kills" into a never-ending delay swarm.
Sculpture swarm cluster by "milking" the XPR pedal.

This a "pre looper" trick so you may do it over a beat you have
assembled in your looper or you may start with a silent loop and build
a rhythm by doing "substitute stuff" cutting pieces from the noisy
swarm party into the loop.

-----------------
I'm doing this now with a cheesy G-300 sound (sorry Kris) that also
jumps up in a kind of "one octave hick-up" on the (momentary) CTR
hits. Then the CTR also sends a #CC into the lappy where an Amplitube
3 wha-octavia-marshall goes full distortion during the short kills
pedal hits. Sounds like big pneumatic construction machines going
havoc. If using a quarter note swell pedal too in the Amplitube 3 this
weird rough sound suddenly becomes
"wanting-to-act-loving-and-tender-but-looking-just-too-damn-ugly-to-be-taken-seriously..."
 boy what fun! ;-)
