Bravissimo!A question though.Could u tell me what cello pickup do u use?

[skandrewskandrew]

David Gage's "Realist" pickup w/ Fishman preamp... wouldn't go any other way.

loopers seem like fun toys. have you used the others? (e.g. digitech, boomerang) if so, do you have an opinion on them?

[skandrewskandrew]

Loopers are amazing toys. I have a Boss RC-50 which is nice because it is almost entirely foot controlled, but it doesn't take a midi signal to sync with other hardware/software. If you are willing to shell out some money I'd look at the Electro Harmonix 2880 with foot controller. Sounds great and works very well. Boss' RC-20 works great for simple loops and is much cheaper. Kaoss pads have some looping functionality plus a TON of effects... Not foot controlled though. Haven't tried others

[runeodk]

fantastic! unbelievable one man job. Insane this havn't got more views. The Boss RC-50 looks nice, but can you do the same with the kaoss pad 3? except for the huge among of layers? I'm considering buying the kaoss, I don't really think i can afford the RC-50 though..

[skandrewskandrew]

I actually use a Korg KP3 for when I play keyboards, but the only downfall is that it can't be triggered by your feet. The RC-50 allows a lot of control over each of the loops, but the KP3 has tons and tons of effects. If I had it to do over again I probably would have gotten the Kaoss pad first... Both are great tools though. Hope that helps and good luck!

[SeeMe144]

thank you god for giving us the cello! it's beauty in its purest form!

[AEDrummer1]

honestly... how could one person dislike this, let alone 5? this is beautiful. great stuff

[megan9987]

This was beautiful! I hope soon I can get a cello for myself, because I play electric guitar; but I have always wanted a cello!

[R6124]

That was really beatiful!I am quite impressed.I have been playing electric guitar for some years and now i would like to play cello too.The only problem i have is that cellos are tuned in a different way than guitars,and i am afraid that if i started playing cello while im still learning guitar i would become seriously confused,for example when viewing scales.As you play both cello and guitar,could you tell me about the difficulty of learning these two instruments at the same time?Thank you!
