RE: Summary of Violin Loopers Question



Hey Chris thought I might get you to pop in :)

Don the forum is for all categories of bowed string instrument whether
electric, acoustic, Viola, Cello or Bass Viol and then some. You can post 
on
any topic you wish (including looping, Heck if your a guitar player and 
just
want to know more feel free to join or visit). Chris just joined the rank 
of
Loopers we did have Stuart Wyatt (Solostring) for a bit but, I think he is
busy these days (I think that he and Mark (Madfiddler) Knight were supposed
to try out a Looping Trio with a cellist but, I never heard anymore about 
it
from Mark). I stay on this list (LD) and the forum. The mix of styles and
people are quite interesting try it out (you can do both)

Yeah I saw that link before. I've been there. I was just asking for loopers
is all though, as opposed to just electric fiddlers. I found plenty of
those. . . .was just hoping this list was a good place to get right down to
the loopers (yeah I'm lazy that way). Figured L-D was a good place.

Okay you all, if you REALLY want ALL the fiddle info, follow this link.  
I'm
sorry, I should have offered this to you a few days ago, my head wasn't
focused...

This site is a pretty complete resource, though I don't think i'm listed...
(my own fault.)

Best,

Todd

Hugh Marsh, the violinist in question is VITAL listening for any electric
violinist, looping or no looping. He's fantastic - check out any of Bruce's
80s albums for lots of Hugh's work. (in fact, just check out any of Bruce's
albums because they are amazing, forget about instrumentation... :o)
