looping gear pro/con moment (iheart batteries)
Setting up for a show this evening (I was playing solo sppoky theremin
before a stage production of Henry James' ghost story _The Turn of the
Screw_), I realized that I'd accidentally not packed the AC adapters for
my Boss RC-20 Loopstation and my Digitech Jamman (I'd managed to not
forget the adapter for the Akai Headrush). Given I was doing layered loops
of ghostly conversations andd was out-of-town, I was, umm, stuck.
But! The Boss RC-20 runs on 6 AA batteries. Two minutes later, I was up
and going with at least two loopers to layer underneath the live theremin
signal.
Admittedly this wouldn't have been a problem if I'd packed more carefully.
But the battery feature of the RC-20 made my evening much easier to
recover from my own carelessness.
