Hi
All,
been busy for a bit, now
back...
Repeater has been a bit
neglected in my rack for a bit, but I still like the
pitching capabilities, but I just wish it FELT more in tune with me when I played.. Does anyone know what I mean? With the EDP I press buttons and feeeel an immediate response, basically cos the edp is so good at small divisions of sound (SUSing and INSERTING etc...) but the Repeater some how seems slow, laggy, and a bit tired... SO... I have 3 questions really... 1. Has anyone tried sequencing the track slip on Repeater?, IE programmng streams of CC's?? I have tried sequencng the pitch, cant think how I did it now... cos I only got ANalog sequencers, wiv knobs on.. but I did... and Repeater was very slow at changing pitch, so it was just a pretty wobbly mess... used it for one track of course, but after that the interest wore off, but to do the same thing with the track slip, you could effectively do some reaaranging glitchy stuff, as you play??? 2. What do people think of the Repeater upgrade after such a long time coming... should I get it? and 3. SHOCK HORROR... I was
thinking of selling it and some unused SKB racks
and a Korg synth and working late for a few weeks and getting a Looperlative Ta ta!!! So I downzoned the PDF manual and read... sounds impressive.... no pitch shifting (apart from octave right?) so it aint a replacement for repeater, but lots of tracks (not sure if I care about that either) interesting sounding synching stuff, scrambling sounds cool... BUT>>>>> HOW
DOES IT FEEL...MAaaan???
I couldn't help but notice
Zoë offloading hers (Hi Zoë! ) why
exactly?? I also worry about the amount of midi pedal fiddling... all those tracks, all that hidden away stuff, (some of us are never gonna be as clever as Per, or as tidy as Claud (saw your racks... bastard!!)) So will I be forever upping and downing thru banks on my pedals? Or do I just need 4 really...? Will people see me playing
geetar on stage?
Or will they see me peering
into a rack, with a mag-light scolling thru menus?
Comparisons between Repeater and Looperlative welcomed into my home, of thier own free will. Cheers...lots of love Mark..xxx
PS/ Im gonna be in California for a week in September (from 17th) specifically Ventura, but prob passing thru SF or LA, depends on the flight... therfore I will be available for drinking engagements and loopng chats/gigs (unfortunately I wont have any gear wth cos Im there on work, filming a doc about an ethical sportsware company actually...) So... Whaaasup??? (I
believe is the correct vernacular?)
