We've got: My eagerly anticipated novella on the fascinating subject of Footpedals for the Echoplex. It includes everything I could think of on the subject, and then some. This will also be my topic for "What I did on my Christmas Holiday." Take it all in at: http://www.annihilist.com/loop/tools/echoplex/echopedals.html Also, in response to Trevor Bajus' request for a comparison between the Echoplex and Jamman, Matthias dug up such a thing that he wrote a couple of years ago. Michael promptly html-ized it, I added a bit or two, and there ya go. This is version 1.0, and certain to get updated as it contains some large info voids. Whatever you see lacking, send it on in. It may be a tad biased too, considering the authors. Hopefully future additions will correct that. See the controversy brewing at: http://www.annihilist.com/loop/tools/Plex_Jamman.html Also, I created the beginnings of a JamMan page. Hopefully some articulate JamMan users will fill it with useful tidbits. Right now it just has links to the aforementioned comparison sheet and the Harmony Central page, which is pretty informative. Gaze in awe as your future in web page creation beckons you at: http://www.annihilist.com/loop/tools/jamman/jamman.html A new version of the profiles page was also uploaded, so you can learn all the latest about your fellow Looper's Delighters at: http://www.annihilist.com/loop/profiles/Profiles.html Plus, I updated a link or two here and there. Oh, as far as the question of whether looping is growing in popularity or not, and what the future holds, Looper's Delight has received 474 hits in the 5 days since January 1. Not as many as my friend's porno site, but the sexiness of our obscure little corner of the net is clearly growing. Enjoy! kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 06 Jan 1997 05:22:41 -0800 From: johnpollock@delphi.com (John Pollock) To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com Subject: Re: New stuff on the web site Message-id: <01IDVSEZH7C28WZQH5@delphi.com> Content-type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Kim indited, >Oh, as far as the question of whether looping is growing in popularity or >not, and what the future holds, Looper's Delight has received 474 hits in >the 5 days since January 1.

I think we have enough talent here to build the ultimate looper. I mean we have the Plex design team, the JamMan marketer, contacts with all the major players (I mean all you "I demonstrated to Robert Fripp" types) and an exact idea of what the box should do (since we all use them). All we need is to know whether there exists a market for such a box (or whether it's viable to build one for the few we know that want 'em - like everyone here..) and how much of a commitment we need from the contributors. I'm sure there are a few here who'd get involved. Any takers?

He has such an aversion to cliche that his improvisational methodology is to abandon any idea as soon as it begins to imply any conventional genre/harmony/melody/whatever. He's a phenomenal guitarist, and a rigorous, if slightly curmudgeonly, free improvisor. I haven't heard the 'Guitar, Drum 'n' Bass' record, reviews suggest it's not his best work, nor particularly innovative drum 'n' bass, and I don't think it's particularly representative of his usual works. He is worth seeking out, I've known a few guitarists who compeletly changed their styles after listening to Bailey. The records of his I'd recommend include: Arcana, "The Last Wave", on DIW, a scorched-earth electric improv session with Bill Laswell and Tony Williams, one of the very rare times Bailey has recorded with a conventional (at least in instrumentation if not approach) rhythm section. This is one of my currently one of my favorite records. Derek and the Ruins, "Saisoro", on Tzadik, a trio with the utterly insane and virtuosic japanese duo Ruins. Derek Bailey and Henry Kaiser, "Wireforks", on Shanachie, a beautifully recorded set of mostly acoustic duos. Derek Bailey and Anthony Braxton, "First Duo Concert (London, 1974)", on Emanem, a set of absolutely incredible improvisations. Derk Bailey, John Zorn, William Parker, "Harras", on Avant, a recent recording of more traditional acoustic free jazz, very high energy. Bailey has many more records out, but most of them are on his very limited distribution label Incus, and are hard to find in the US. The above are relatively widely available. Also, his book is a terrific resource on improvisation in many musical contexts. ________________________________________________________ Dave Trenkel, NEW EMAIL ADDRESS: improv@peak.org self promotional web-site: http://www.peak.org/~improv/ "A squid eating dough in a polyethelene bag is fast and bulbous, got me?" -Captain Beefheart ________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 7 Jan 1997 20:50:35 +0100 From: "Stefano Voulaz" To: "Loopers!" Subject: Introduction... Message-Id: <199701072050.UAA03622@loki.genan.it> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi everybody! I've been looking for something like this for *years* and now I am really excited to join the loopers community. I hope to be able to contribute in the future, even if my experience is fairly limited. But let me just introduce myself. My name is Stefano Voulaz (but I've always been The Uncle), I'm 27 and I live in Italy. The town is less interesting, since I'm often moving: at the moment I stay near Ancona (close to the sea) and I work for KORG Italy as a software designer. My technical backgrounds are in analog and digital electronics design, as well as vacuum tubes (yeah!). Now I work as a programmer - I like soft thingies. Musically speaking, I try to be a guitarist, even if my academic instrument is the accordeon. I studied also saxophone and some other stuff, but I'm trying to enhance my skills on my white Strat. I started out listening to Alan Parsons, then Pink Floyd and followed up with Sylvian and Fripp (my reference points), among others. Thus, the Echoplex I bought recently (actually spending an unbelievable $1000 for an used unit!) has been like the holy grail for Sir Lancelot. Up until now, I've been playing with a Roland SDE-3000 in 2x mode (well, 6" of very-low-quality delay). Dazzling. But now... Tapping and looping are the most exciting things I felt since I started making music! OK, I'll cut it. Just earning bandwidth for more interesting stuff. Thanks again to everyone working on this list. Se you soon!

It has been a couple of months since I installed a grommet around the jack on my plex footpedal. This was per your suggestion to resolve the problem I noted with static discharge at the footpedal causing the plex to loose the loops recorded. I am happy to report that I have not had this problem repeat with the grommet in place. Radio Shack has an assortment package of plastic grommets of various sizes. The largest one in the package fits inside the hole and around the jack of the footpedal perfectly. Unfortunately, I continue to have a problem with the start point of my loops moving as I switch between several loops. Am I the only person seeing this? After a few times of hitting next loop, the start point for previously recorded loops moves, and I have to manually set them back. bret ------------------------------ Date: 07 Jan 97 16:58:39 EST From: Michael Peters <100041.247@CompuServe.COM> To: "'INTERNET:Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com'" Subject: RE: Introduction...

Given my present state of trying to build a record label, it's impossible for me to consider getting actively involved in (another) start-up venture. On the other hand, I'd really want to be involved. The big issue is: is there a market out there? So far the returns on Jam/Plex etc have indicated not. If someone asked me if I'd be involved in a company that made *only* looping devices, I'd say no. Too risky. But a new effect/processing company with a little bit of creative vision *is* a real option. Consider how many people hate Digitech/Alesis/etc but still buy the stuff anyway. Well, what if someone new came in and answered the issues, made the right products at the right prices. Thought about the user for a change. Hmmm.... ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 8 Jan 1997 14:13:30 GMT From: pycraft@elec.gla.ac.uk (Dr M. P. Hughes) To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com Subject: Re: JamMan Rumors (attempt 2!)

Well, what >if someone new came in and answered the issues, made the right products at the >right prices. Thought about the user for a change. Hmmm.... I've been thinking about this too. I've had an idea in my head for a while on a vortex-type FX unit, ie something which can be used creatively. These's definitely a market for that - eg the Lovetone company over here (you've probably read reviews in GP) are heavily back-subscribed. I've been looking into the possibility of using a completely analogue signal path, digitally controlled; unfortunately digital pots are quite expensive! But a unit with only a few parameters (eg Vortex, RP5 or whatever), where each could be set to a value, assigned to a CC input or the onboard LFO (which could itself be assigned to the CC), would be vastly cool. If we could arrange to distribute the effort and cost so that we could produce in batches of, say 100 or so we would be in a better position to do it as a sideline rather than ditching our jobs in favour of this, esp. as we'd need to sink less capital into it at a time, and we'd be better able to make only as many as we sell. Jon and Kim, out of interest, how many Plexes, Texes and JamMen are out there? I realise I'm probably blathering here, and merely showing my complete ignorance on matters big and businesslike, but hell, I think this would be fun! :) Michael Dr Michael Pycraft Hughes Bioelectronic Research Centre, Rankine Bldg, Tel: (+44) 141 330 5979 University of Glasgow, Glasgow G12 8QQ, U.K. "Everything in moderation, including moderation" (Zen Proverb) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 8 Jan 1997 14:59:26 -0300 From: matthias@bahianet.com.br (Matthias Grob) To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com Subject: Re: JamMan Rumors Message-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Dr. "Spoon" Michael: >No, just thought I'd stir up some trouble! :) worked. >All we need >is to know whether there exists a market for such a box (or whether it's >viable to build one for the few we know that want 'em - like everyone >here..)

No Way. >I do not doubt that the market exists, but how to reach it best? Review in GP? Favourable, of course!!! If we're producing items in small runs, would we benefit from specifically-targeted FX? You know, the Allan Holdworth 8-delay system, etc. Would there be a market for the Hex Fuzz simulator - 10 narrow bandpass filters with fuzz ccts following, so that if you play a chord each note falls into a different filter and gets fuzzed (ie converted to square wave) separately? Ideal for the Robert Fripp types. And so on. Just a few thoughts, usually developed when walking my dog.
