Re: Percussion, drums anyone?

Sounds like you are looping acoustically, which is what I do. How do you
handle live situations, in particular how do you avoid signals from
feeding back into a loop from a monitor?

I remember reading a while back that you perform composed pieces. How
are you doing that with your EDP? Do you notate various loop actions as
well?

Oh, and if you have time, tell me more about these:
- waterphone
- ocean drum
- batu-tu
- gopiyantra
- ting-sha
