Hi George, The looper in use is Mobius software looper running on a 1 gHz Windows XP laptop. The MIDI pedalboard for controlling the looper was a Behringer FCB1010 (at the time I recorded this). On the pedal I use one bank of ten switches for direct rate shifting of the loop; so I have ten optional pitch transpose ranges that I find useful. Rate shifting a loop also changes the length of the loop, the higher the pitch the faster it loops. You can hear that in the clip I posted because just before I started improvise that chord sequence + melody I had created a kind of tremolo effect by pumping the looper feedback pedal. I regarded that as a mistake when I did it but now, for educational purposes, its' actually good that you hear by the tremolo when the loop speeds up vs slows down according to the rate shifting. When doing this parallel transposing of a looped chord the melodies and scales that works well depends on whether it is a major or minor chord being transposed. I find that very interesting and helpful when looking for other melody lines than the usual. Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.perboysen.com http://www.youtube.com/perboysen
