Members Teahead Posted April 15, 2006 Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 I just messed around with two loop junkies, either side of an Ibanez analog delay. I was recording a loop on the first one, then leaving it playing and recording that loop, plus an overdub, on the second one.... then, I swapped the two loop junkies over and recorded the two track loop plus another overdub onto the second pedal (which was the first one originally) and repeated the process (like bouncing the looped tracks) to get nine tracks on one loop junky! It sounds amazing, of course you could only get three tracks plus the direct sound when playing live, but still... even with only four tracks of guitar at once it sounded unbelievable.

Members zachary vex Posted April 15, 2006 Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 crazy. i've never tried bouncing with loop junkys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Teahead Posted April 15, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 If anyone has the resources to try this, it's you Zach! I had great fun, weaving bass lines with maximum warble into chords with only a slight vibrato and then adding slapback leads on top. Plenty of textures were available by varying the controls for each loop. It wasn't something I planned, more of an accident really, but it did allow me to "mix down" a fully arranged idea onto one Lo Fi. Cool stuff.

Members SpectralJulian Posted April 15, 2006 Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 Well technically you could do more live. Somewhere floating around the internet is a schematic for a pedal that switches the order of two pedals or two effects loops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jonny guitar Posted April 15, 2006 Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 I have going Lo Fi into RC20 with great success...didn't it get really noisey looping Lofi to Lofi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Teahead Posted April 15, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 Originally posted by jonny guitar ...didn't it get really noisey looping Lofi to Lofi? Strangely not, I even had a comp & eq between them at one point. The second Lo Fi didn't seem to add any hiss when it recorded the loop from the first, just retained what was already there. The direct sound, having been treated to a pair of LJ's super high impedence thingys, sounded beautfully glassy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members zachary vex Posted April 15, 2006 Members Share Posted April 15, 2006 uhh, he meant LJ as in Loop Junky. they have ultra high-impedance inputs for the direct tone, using bootstrap circuits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Teahead Posted June 30, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 Nice! Man it really is fun swapping the order of the LJs to build up layers of loops on one pedal. The Lo Fi is Zach's finest creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fernmeister Posted June 30, 2006 Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 really cool i used to do that sort of thing back in old days with tape decks and song length stuff. always wanted to do with loop tapes fripp style. if you had an order switching pedal (easy to build) it would be an amzing live looping setup.

Members RoboPimp Posted June 30, 2006 Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 I do that with my looper but it doesn't require moving anything around, plus it has 30 minutes of record time. No need for bouncing. But I guess if you're stuck with limited options you have to get thrifty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
