Hey Jimmy, thanks bunches for the compliments. <smile> Feel free to say more if you'd like! lollollol! As for my clean tone with a looper, Dre's been doing this sort of thing for quite some time now, so ya might wanna check out some of his samples, which you may really dig! As for the bug sounds at the end, that's actually a combination of a couple things, a sus unrounded multiply, which is being used to make the loop smaller and smaller and smaller, which I was turned on to, listening to techno, and then heard Dre doing with the plex on the last tour, and then I'm taking the very tiny loop, and using another function, called sus unrounded insert to add sections or cycles to the loop to get it to become rhythmic again, or at least more conventionally so. <smile> I'm betting Dre has done this sort of thing too, to come out of a sus unrounded multiply, since he IS the EDP god afterall! lol! -but I'm sure he can direct you better to an audio example of this if he has one posted. Another thing I personally like to do, is to alternate between sus unrounded multiply, and sus unrounded insert in rapid succession. I'll make a loop smaller and smaller, and then begin inserting silence and then multiply it again, and go back and forth like that for a while, which can arrive at some pretty strange sounds. Re: clean tones again. -I personally have used quite alot of effects for quite a while. -though have steadily been settling on a simpler tone as well, (a good clean tone, and nice smooth lead tone) for the past few years or so, and let the loops and music in general say what they will. I prefer to really be able to hear the sound of the instrument, and actually be able to tell what I, or someone else is playing. I've also been getting into listening to live performances moreso as well, since to me, I'd rather hear what's actually going on in the moment rather than a whole bunch of spliced or overdubed solos and such. -just my thoughts of course. I definitely appreciate a good pallet of sound and texture though. I'm certainly not opposed to that, and ideally would like to incorporate that into what I'm doing now, in a way that still fits with where I'm at with the music. One very simple reason I'm not using more reverb on some of my tones on that recording, is that the darned Pandora can't pull it off and sound good! lol! so I'd rather stay with a nice tone. anyway, as for Dre and I being two freaky people, yup!, damn straight! lollollol!
