If you start reading thins you CANT stop .Once ther was a little girl named Cecilia.She was a little 7 year old who got strangled and raped by a man =.If you dont post this to 15 other videos you will see CCecilia standing at the end of your bed with a knife and she will kill you
You have to do this by midnight or you will be dead
This is great. I'd often messed about with delay but never even had heard of fripp at that time...its almost as if fate took me there. I still use primitive effects and an ebow to generate my soundscapes but hope to get proper synth capabilities. Would you recommend the Boss RC looper then? I only use Korg ax1500g at the mo
I'm using the RC-50 now, which allows you to loop three different sounds against each other in stereo. It's quite powerful, but if you are only starting out, I'd recommended trying the RC-20XL or the RC-2, which is a budget version of the former.
this is unreal, i haven't discovered much music like this. I use a looper myself but never like this, must be very interesting to be playing it. how long have you been playing? this style of music as well as guitar in general?
I started to learn bass guitar back in 1987 and slowly moved over to the guitar in 1990. My experiments with MIDI guitar and ambient looping began in 1994.
I'm considering getting a Godin xtSA, primarily for synth access. How do you like the guitar in general, and more specifically, how is the synth tracking?
The xtSA suits my playing style and the synth tracking is the best I've known and I've done internal GK-2A MIDI conversions on Strats and LPs and they don't compare to the xtSA. I wholeheartedly recommend them!
What patch are you using on the GR-33? Is it a patch that can be found on a GR-20 as well?sounds like strings but better than what can be found on the GR-20. :)
It's a custom patch. The best results with the GR-33 are gained by creating your own patches. The GR-20 doesn't have the same level of patch tweakibility, so I am not sure if you'd be able to recreate the exact same sound. But the fun is in experimenting! :-)
Electric guitars CAN'T do that... but electric guitars with MIDI pickups systems (like this one) CAN do that, and even more. Just plug it to a synth module and turn your guitar into a synthesizer.
Hey, cool soundscapes! I'm interested in that guitar of yours, the Godin xtSA. I've never had the chance to try it myself, but I've read reviews and info about it. I know all about the features and stuff, and it seems pretty amazing. But one thing seems to be a bit unclear: do the humbuckers split to single-coils in pos. 2 and 4 to get that strat sound?
Nice job, I have the roland gr-20, I am looking at the godin xtsa, how do you look the action an ebony neck. I hear it has great sustain. Thanks for the vid
I do a lot of robert fripp soundscaping myself, but I also work with synthesizers to make certain types of soundscapes too (play an access virus with a roland pk-5 footpedal so I can guitar and synth at the same time). I have to say that you really bring out the beauty of that synthesizer, i've never heard it been played like that. Very new age sound.. keep it up.
I find myself looking this soundscape up on a near daily basis. It's stunningly beautiful and peaceful. This has inspired me to get back into guitar soundscaping. Thank you for your contribution to music
By the way, don't you even try to make a tune with only the guitar sound and using a volume pedal for slow attack and maybe octave & chorus & phaser pedals for synth sounds ?
I tried this and it is great to keep the organic, imperfect, lively sound of the guitar.
Hello, very nice. I want to buy a GR-33 and a Loop station like you. But I really need to make bass sounds at real time with guitar sounds. Is it possible or there´s some delay? Thank you.
I don't know what that it, but a GR-33 is tweakable so I guess you could come up with some gothic sounds for your music. You are just limited by your imagination, I guess.
From what I've read, you can customise the sounds better on a GR-33 than a GR-20. A GR-20 is a more "basic" model of guitar synth for those who just want trumpets and pianos, etc.
Really, so i can get a darker sound with the gr33, ive noticed its cheaper also. Ive been looking for a demonstration that shows all the different sounds it has, do you know were i can find any?
You can use any guitar as long as you buy a MIDI pickup that is attached to your instrument. Guitar synths like the Roland GR-20 and GR-33 come complete with the detachable GK MIDI guitar pickup. Hope this helps!
is the gr 33 something you can use in performance, like an effects pedal, or is it like a big guitar modeling processor like thr p50? also how much does it cost?
The GR-33 is a floor-based guitar synthesiser. You can use it in performance and studio settings. It's about the same size as a regular FX pedal unit.
True, but with regards to Mr Fripp it is about inspiration, not emulation and I would never even dare to compare myself to him. I am a non-musician groping in the dark.
HEY GREAT SOUND! Btw I just got my DD-20, and its my first delay pedal. Just a quick question though. I can hear a pulse sound created by the delay. is that normal?
Thanks for the kind words. The DD-20 shouldn't be creating any other sounds. I'd take it back to the shop and ask for a replacement if I were you. If the problem continues, it could be an issue further up the FX chain.
Great work. Real music for airports here (?) but very beautiful. Thanks. In the 70s this would probably have been on a very expensive German vinyl import album..... (and I would probably have bought it, haha)
No - the MIDI pickup circuitry is built into the Godin xtSA. Those guitars come pre-equipped so there's no need for the external GK-3 pickup. Google "Godin Guitars xtSA" for more information.
Ahhh, the late great Roger Barrett. Not really an inspiration, but an important icon on the rock landscape. Yup - I flog a few CDs now and again. I knock 'em out cheap. ;-)
For this recording, a Godin XTSA guitar, a Roland GR-33 guitar synth, a Boss RC-20XL loop pedal and a Boss DD-20 delay. For guitar tones, I use a Roland VG-88. I hope this list is helpful to you.
sweet sounds!
