Proceeding with glacial slowness

Next step in the development. I’ve added another track and made a lot of modifications as far as the routing sounds to the delays go. Just trying to thin it out a bit to give the echoes more room to breathe. 2005-10-30

No big change, I just added another instrument doing something slightly different. 2005-10-29

Still exploring what can be done with a guitar and multiple delays. This one has four harmonized multitap delays going into four cycling loops with different lengths. Once again, most of the effects used are free: Harm-Z, Delayifier and Looplex. 2005-10-23
Layers

I used the same setup as yesterday, but this time, I played with my EBow and, finally, a new scale. I also dug out another old piece of gear – my SansAmp. I have the very first model, from when they were being built in the back room of Rogue Music on 30th St. in […]
