the joy of looping - just got my echoplex digital pro

[one less than none]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

after nearly two years of waiting i finally have my gibson echoplex digital pro, for those of you who don't know what it is you can find details here

there really is a joy in looping ! excellent fun and a great way to write and play, basically it is a real time phrase sampler (like a boomerang - but with more features)

the most fun you can have with a delay ?

i've just been playing with da plex again and man i love this thing,i would urge anyone to check it out

that's awesome man, i've been experimenting with "looping" myself a bit... but its not true looping what i'm doing, i'm just setting the delay reaaaally long and playing rhythm and melody at the same time... or playing harmonies with myself...

is that sorta what you're doing, is your thing a true sampler and looper

either way, its a very original way to play and i hope you come up with something cool... and if you do, dude, you'd better post it up here, cause i think we'd wanna listen to it.

well yeah the echoplex is designed from the ground up as a looper.

I like lots of loop player such as David Torn (the man !), Robert Fripp and the rest of King Crimson hahahhah

But it is just so much fun

well i got to do some sample of the rio grande pups and the sustainiac for people on the board so ill combine them with some loops for you all
