Twin Looper
Просмотров 86221 день назад
After a few years of playing with the Twin Looper I finally made a video with it! There are a few different brands who sell a version of the Twin Looper. My Twin Looper is from the brand Rowin. I didn't mention it in the video because all versions off the Twin Looper work the same (to my knowledge). 00:00 Intro 00:39 Looper Functions 03:53 Effects 04:33 Speed Control 06:08 Change Mode 07:55 Ste...
Looping Loops
Просмотров 657Месяц назад
One of my favorite things to do is feeding loopers into eachother to create new multiple-layer loops. The matrix mixer makes this so much easier!! This session starts with a single, very simple, guitar melody. After that no more input from the guitar is added. I’m using the Ditto x4 and the Twin Looper to rerecord the loop and add effects such as half speed and reverse. To create some more move...
DIY Matrix Mixer First Try

A little over a year ago, two friends decided they wanted to make a matrix mixer. After some struggles the first working prototype is ready. They asked me to test the new device so here is the first, of probably many, testing session.

Walrus Audio Fundamental Fuzz

Welcome to my first demo of a drive pedal! I don't use drive pedals in my ambient music much so I also tried to play some guitar riffs as examples (timing is hard ;)). In the final example I use the Bloom: 10 Worlds app, it pairs nicely with the fuzz to create some really dirty sounds.

New Recording Setup
Просмотров 8133 месяца назад
Recently I bought my first 4 track cassette recorder. And I wanted to see what difference it would make if I recorded my music with the 4 track instead of my Kemper Profiling Amp (amp and cab simulator). I used the same settings on the Kemper as my previously recorded music. And with both recordings I only used the same small amount of EQ. Which version do you like?
First 4 Track Tape Loop
Просмотров 2154 месяца назад
Recently I got my very first 4 track cassette recorder! It almost works perfectly, I’ll probably have to replace the belts some time. But now I can experiment with tape loops on this machine. Here I took a short tape loop and recorded some different tracks. Track 1: bass drone Track 2: chord with shimmer reverb Track 3: sound on sound Track 4: voice sample (was already on the tape)
SGFX NU-33 - First Sounds
Просмотров 4004 месяца назад
My first experiments with the NU-33 from Solid Gold FX. I really like that it's a modulation pedal with a lot of extra functions. You can really shape the sound of the modulation and add a bunch of cool lo-fi effects. The audio in this video might sound a bit more noisy. I'm also experimenting with a new recording process. More about that soon!
Pedalboard Session

Here's a quick session with the latest build of my pedalboard. Well, kind of... Shortly after the last video I got an amazing new modulation pedal, the Solid Gold FX NU-33. So I took of the Behringer FX600 and replaced it with the NU-33. To fit everything on the board I also changed the order of the pedals a little.

Sony M-729V Belt Replacement

When I got this microcassette player (second hand of course) it didn’t work but when I listned closely I could hear the motor spinning. So I figured it had to be a problem with the belt and I wanted to try and replace it myself. The first attempt failed because I didn’t have the right belt for this model. And that’s why in this video there’s no old belt in the recorder to take out. I finally fo...

    Nice. I have three loopers on my board. One thing I like to do is record a loop to the one furthest away, then another loop to one in middle and finally, one to closest. Then let the three async loops evolve. Add some effect, salt and pepper, and maybe drop one to revers and another to half speed. endless fun.

The Attack Decay does have a numer of additional functions such as poly mode, fuzz and a tremelo option. Hope this helps!
