RANDOM RETRIGGER
everytime you retrigger it goes to a random place in the loop.  I put this in with the idea of
relooping or resampling, so as to give someone the ability to play the retrigger pedal

I love both of those.

Here they are demonstrated.

two unsynced solo electric guitar tracks,
using a fretless pink stratocaster (with dayglo pink UV active strings) and a harmonic
capo attached to it at the 12 fret.........instrument tuned to a 6 string scale (as opposed
to standard or any kind of open tuning).

I played it mostly as a zither with small amounts of fretless playing thrown in for good measure:
