Short Robots are Screaming: Crazy MF Flange Sounds

Posted on by

This video is an outtake from my series of improvised guitar solos.

The loop I recorded is way too loud but I still liked a small section of the solo and I wanted to share it regardless.  So, here is that outtake.

The super metallic sound of the loop is created by the MF Flange.

I also ran the flange under a lot of the solo giving it extra bite.  This one is a bit rough on the ears!

This song is called: Short Robots are Screaming

Roland Introduces JC-22 Jazz Chorus Guitar Amp

I can’t yet tell if I love this or hate it.  I do like the idea of a smaller brother to the amazing JC-120 and the smart & sensible JC-40.

This might be the perfect practice amp for Jazz guitarists and those playing small “coffee house” sized venues.

What I wish it had:

  1. USB out for direct digital recording (Yes, I realize this amp has line out and USB might really jack up the price… But that doesn’t mean I can’t still WANT something.)
  2. 10″ Speakers.  6.5″ speakers feel really out of sync with the rest of the specs on this amp, especially because the big selling point is the huge multi diminutional 3D sound it is supposed to provide… From 6.5 inch speakers?  hummmm.  I would really like to hear this in person.

Check prices on Amazon for the JC-22, and the larger JC-40 and JC-120

Boss CP-1X Compressor
CP-1X is a new type of multiband compressor for guitar. AKA: Yes, we need this! I really like the idea behind this pedal & it’s simplicity.

Boss AD-2 Acoustic Preamp:
This is an interesting new pedal from Boss. I’m not sure how much this demo excites me, so I’ll be curious to hear what pops up on youtube in the next few months as people start to try them out. Thoughts?
