Yeah, I've told the tale where I tried to play live where I basically tried to bring my studio to a party. Total disaster. What seemed so simple and intuitive seemed so very scary in the dark. I'm sure with practice I could get it right, but instead I've decided to go another route. LESS. Here's a few of my new rules: Do not under any circumstances bring gear for other people. To have other's join in the fun I used to let people use my 2nd Repeater live. Bad move. This rule has crept into my studio too, but I'm more lax there. If you don't own it you can't use it. Bring one looper and one multi-effects. (that doesn't include guitar pre) Leave the drum machine home. Find a drummer if you want live percussion or some electronic beat/DJ guy to help out. If you can't find these, go ambient. > BTW you are right about the sounds on GR30 of course, straight outa > box they're naff, but i mix and match the tones in such a weird way > they dont sound at all like they started, been thinking about a GR33, > but whats the diff REALLY... sounds??? I fooled around with the GR-33 for a bit and couldn't hear a difference at all. > I would like a choice of latching the damper version of arpeggio and > latching HOLD on/off and not having to keep my foot on the pedal for a > droney thing... but apart from that.. im happy... I've been doing really cool stuff with the Korg MS2000r's arpeggiator which sounds like it behaves like you want it to. Lot's of knobs to tweak and it takes up 6 rack spaces! Sounds great too. Changed my mind about analog modeling. This is close enough for me. Good luck to you fellow Mark. I just listened to the Demo's on your site. (Butterhook) Fucking brilliant man. (good thing I have DSL! Big Flash site!) Do you need another "thing"? I think not. I've been trying to make myself work within limitations and it can indeed be liberating at times. If I'm ever in the UK, I'll stop by and we can have some tea. Mark Blue
