This sort of caught my attention a while back, and I only just got around to asking about it: At 11:42 PM -0700 5/7/97, Carlos Carrillo wrote: >I hope to be able to apply some of these ideas of constant evolution to >my looped compositions.

Carrillo I guess I don't understand why you can't get that same effect with both the jamman and the echoplex. With the echoplex, turning the feedback down while overdubbing does exactly what you are describing. As far as I know, the jamman does that too (although with less resolution on the feedback control). The old stuff dies away while the new stuff comes into the loop. That's almost the whole point of having feedback control! Is there something you want to do that I'm missing? There are lots of ways to approach feedback control, maybe I could show you a technique that will do what you want? You might not need anything special added to the rom, it might be there already! let me know if I can help, kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com
