Boss 16 minute loop pedal, Audio Buddy for Boss Pedal signals to mixer.<br>2. No conscious avoidance of any technology but would not be keen on just laptop as this is dull for the audience.<br>3. Quamvis Sum Parva uses instruments which sound electrical but are acoustic eg: singing bowls. Samplers and loopers enable her to create layers of sound to fill the performance space. The
durations of the acoustic sounds and loops become confused in the listener's ear and enable changes to be subtly introduced in the soundscape.<br>4. 1st performance in a club where our inexperience caused problem not technology. We created a feedback loop by routing effects box back through sub channel. However members of local noise metal outfit praised this, even though ti drowned out parts of the performance.<br>5. We intend using AirFx and Kaoss Pad to modify sounds from our collection of gongs, bowls, harmonium, possibly dung shen. I may acquire other classic old hardware. Degradation of sound fed into 12 or 16 bit equipment can be quite exciting.<br>Hope this useful Chrisb<br><div><span><br></span></div><div><span></span></div><div><br></div> <div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <hr
