Natoma // Eurorack Guitar Loop Processing

Processing a guitar loop with the modular.

An excercise to see if I could build up a track using several instances of a single guitar loop. I recorded the loop the night before recording this video via the Intellijel Audio Interface into a pedal looper on the Orthogonal Devices ER-301.

All of the audio sources in this track are several instances of the guitar loop. One is pitched up, one is pitched down, several are running through granular processors.

The real heavy lifting in this patch is done by the trio of Clouds, Magneto and DLD.
