Re: laptop-loopers (guitar)

["Krispen Hartung" <khartung@cableone.net>]

That last sample I used it the closest thing I have....the thing is that 
converting to notebook-only is so recent for me that I have no decent gig 
or 
studio recordings. My last performance was with Jeff Kaiser at the Boise 
Experimental Music Festival, and that was my hardware/software hybrid 
system.

I'll see if I can generate a simple loop clip in the next few days to 
illustrate the tone of the electric through my system....no massive tone 
mangling VSTs, just the guitar, Voxgengo, and some light 
reverb/chorus/delay.
