hello people,
first of all here's a photo for you:

now, except for the boss dd, the rc loop station (i guess) and the walkman (which by the way does anyone have any idea what purpose it could serve on stage?), could you identify the rest of em?

not sure i get your suggestion vvv, i mean the loops are already recorded into the loop station, and to record the whole performance into a walkman from onto the stage seems like a wierd choice.
i think it's used to add an atmosphere into the background, white noise etc... to make it more of a space like experience.

I've seen people in concert (Kevin Devine's band, for one) use a walkman held up to their guitar pickup for a cool lofi kind of sound. Nice alternative to just playing a sample, certainly more interesting to see.

It could be some kind of synthy oscillator thingy (Monotron, Monotribe, etc.), but since he's srumming and plucking what looks like the D-string while he adjusts with his other hand, I'm going to guess that it's some kind of analog delay pedal set to "self-oscillate"/infinite repeat. Once you get the self-oscillating feedback rolling, you can manipulate the pitch, timbre, and "warble" by messing with the "time" and "rate" knobs...

Certain brands/models had an output for a pause button, for dictation and things. I would just go to a thrift store and look for one. Personally I just glued a button to the top of the pause button and used my foot to turn it on and off.grouper wrote:electro voice you mentioned the extra wire in the walkman could serve as a play/pause button. could you hand out more details as to how it works? is there a pedal to play/pause tape that one could purchase?
