Got to see my friend Jonathan Powell, the 18-year-old wunderkind I raved about a few months back, play for the first time with one of the newest weapons in his arsenal, a Line 6 DL4. For those who missed that older post, Jon likes to process his trumpet through distortion and wah pedals and the built-in effects of his Yamaha SU700 sampler. He also likes to hit the SU700 pads and trigger various samples. The jazz group he frequently plays with, Tibetan Sound Orgy, allows him plenty of space to mess around with the sampler and set up loops. In just his second gig with the DL4, he's already setting up a one-man horn section and making other joyful noise. Dave, looks like you have some loopin' competition here. :) For now, anyway. Jon is contemplating attending Juillard in New York. He's gonna be somethin' special... Paolo
