Re: @Bill, empty loop, or looperlative/EDP trick (composition?)

[Mark Hamburg <mark@grubmah.com>]

I used to use the SUS replace trick fairly heavily when I was performing 
with the EDP. (My Y2K6 set contains an extended example.) Following up on 
a discussion at Y2KX about reaching out to a broader audience and setting 
expectations, I've been mulling over why this trick whether on EDP or 
Looperlative is all the rage in the Live Looping community, but it would 
be surprising to see someone at a looping event simply manipulating a 
sequencer. Is there a critical difference for the audience in the sounds 
produced?
