I use a usb pre-amp to my laptop and sound out to my pa or guitar amp. I picked up a usb keyboard for 2 bucks at a thrift store which I put on the floor and use as a footswitch. It's not super heavy duty it is definitely a great way get into the world of looping.]]> From Here to There colin rp https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/robin-guthrie/#post-368346 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/robin-guthrie/#post-368298 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 09:55:44 +0000

There are dedicated pedals that do the job.
Such as these

Here's K.T. Tunestall showing what she can do with one.]]> From Here to There kent_eh https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/robin-guthrie/#post-368293 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/robin-guthrie/#post-41598 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 22:41:19 +0000 hammered dulcimer. I have a soundboard pick-up (mfg.- 'Pick Up the World') I have it going thru a Digitech RP100, then thru a Roland Cube amp. (My goal is to have everything portable so I can play it while camping).

I'm a fan of Robin Guthrie (formerly Cocteau Twins). I've seen him play live on several
occasions. He has a laptop computer on stage that he utilizes while performing. I've heard of
musicians having some 'tracks' pre-recorded, then they will play live along with those tracks.
With Robin, it appears that as he begins a piece, he records sections of it live on stage then
programs the computer to keep replaying these 'live' recordings in a loop while he progresses to
playing other parts of the piece; all on the same intrument.

Am I trippin', or is this what he is doing?

Question: If this is what he is doing, do you know of some electonics I could use with my (very
small) set-up that could come close to duplicating this technique? Something other than a laptop;
something that could record and play just a few background tracks while I play the melody along
it? With the devices I do have along with the dulcimer, I've found I'm able to create a 'droning'
effect easily and feel that if I could obtain the technology I mentioned, I could create the sound
I'm looking for.

Any info/referral will help...Thanx, Mark]]> From Here to There daddyfarlessa https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/robin-guthrie/#post-41598
