    Someone loaned me this CRAZY pedal!

    April 27, 2025 /

    This is the Rainger FX Snare Trap, which I currently have on loan. While it’s hear, I figured I would record some simple beats and pads for future YouTube videos. I like to make my own music because it’s FUN *and* I can avoid frivolous copyright claims. AMAZON LINKS: RAINGER FX Snare Trap: https://amzn.to/4jPS80n (Also check Sweetwater or Reverb!)

    LIVE-LOOPING without pedals (or Reggie Watts) on your computer!

    December 9, 2023 /

    Basically I saw Reggie Watts perform and that got me interested in LOOPER/LOOPING/LOOP pedals. Since I don’t have that hardware, I tried to rig up a way to do the same thing in Reaper. This same technique can be adapted to Cubase, Logic, or your chosen DAW (Digital Audio Workstation).

Imitone is audio software that can run standalone or as a plugin (VST) inside your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). Imitone converts incoming audio signals – humming, whistling, or even another instrument – into MIDI notes that can then be played through your chosen virtual instrument! This way of producing music – literally humming what’s in your head – is invaluable to people like me who can’t play well and don’t yet…
