using gemini sampler w/ my new mixer for looping...(no more minimialist rig)



so i bought one of the low end eurorack mixers, took me a week and a 1/2 to get it out of the

box and figure it out, once out i decided to see if i could get the gemini (1224 i think) sampler out that i bought on ebay a yr ago.....i got it for like 30$ and couldn't ever get it to work w/ my

in-line set up....well, i got it to work w/ the mixer (rca ins/outs--tried the phono and mic inputs and get nothing), but i'm finding it working quite well, since my dod d12 has been acting funny, i don't know how old the sampler is (i'm afraid to find out) but has 5 buttons, two-2 sec samples, two 4-sec samples and a 12 sec sample. also has a pitch slider for slowing down and speeding up, but i'm finding it works quite well, since it has this "record/play" mode switch, it's best w/ my delay feeding it, since it's sort of a finger tap dance, and i'm playing guitar (so getting precise loops on fly while playing are hard, hense using delay to capture delay bits...)....but after getting this thing set up/hooked up (and i am now not using any of my 4 space rack gear, instead of my setup going up and down-its all spread out across table top style), i feel i should repeal my post from a week ago about my "minimalist rig", it doesn't really feel very minimalist anymore, plus i want to play w/ microphone inputs etc...so i feel sort of like the wizard in wiz of oz saying "pay no attention to that man behind the curtain" in talking about my minimalist rig.....
