It's day 2 home bound 14 days quarantine challenge. what shall we play today? I found the Guzheng my partner Cat left in the house, she brought it all the way to my place. It's a full size verison with amazing big sound. Usually if we're not jamming, I made it stood up as it's too space consuming. but it sounds amazing. so i must take it out to play today. Apart from this Chinese Guzheng, I wanna electronic fusion jam. You see i have a Korg collection here, I love Korg and all its synths, they produce many different kinds of keyboards. All four of these i have here are all Korg. I'm a massive Korg fan.
This one here the Microstation has mini keys, smaller keyboard and very portable to bring out anywhere, to the street, on stage and other performances. I also have the Korg R3 here which i've been using for a long time, it has full size keys and i love the sound. It's very versatile and useful for many genre of music. The looper is important of course, when you're playing alone then you can layer things on top of yourself. This looper is a must and will be using it for all the 14 jam! what else can we play? Maybe i'll use this djembe as well. That's it! A relatively simple set with just four instruments. The Guzheng, the two synths, looper and djembe. Let's see how the music goes today. Today's technical challenge is the microphone, that it might pick up a lot of feedback from the loops and keep looping itself. it might or might not be the perfect setup, but we'll see.
coz when you're playing the loops, the mic can pick up what the speaker is playing. Loop and loop and more loops we might have a volume problem. That's it for the setup today, let's play!.
