Tenor sax (Otto Link 9-star) analogically into FireworX digitally into Mobius/Laptop (Mobius standalone version, no VST plug-ins, basically only looping). Creating three loops to jump between while melody phrasing. Typically II: Tonica, Tonica, Subdominant, Dominant. Subdominant, Dominant :II A lot of "add9" coloring of chord voicing. When looping in this context it really is "backwards mixing" since all the stuff you traditionally do when finally mixing your tracks - like EQ'ing, coloring with effects etc to blend them - all of this I do directly as I play, sort of "as part of the instrument". The tool for that is some 25 patches in the FireworX that I have created for layering stuff in a way that they should all sound ok together, as a summed mix of loops/layers. As an example I have very few sounds with a "full timbre", simply because then I would not be able to loop in the essence of layering sound. The colliding frequencies would make the musical counter lines hard to follow. Another concept for "instant orchestration" in looping would be to bring dozens of instruments and swap between them while layering loops. But instead I have chosen to use fewer instruments and work on the sound for alternative expression.
