Hideki, with all the anticipation you have conveyed to us, you are not allowed to just show pictures of your EP! Once you have it with you, you are required pictures+audio or directly a video of you playing the thing! Its the least you could do to all of us eagerly waiting for you to enjoy the EP  Congrats! Sounds great, and glad you have the warmer voice you wanted instead of needing a re-vocing!(was that even possible or were you stuck with whatever the default sound was?) Rafa. I will definitely take the time to do that with this one. I recently picked up an Apogee Quartet and a decent mic, so I will get out some mic v. line recordings. I love the fact they added an effects loop on the Vintage Vibe. It should take nice l to some of my guitar pedals.

Thanks KJ... Not quite your shade of red, but my first dip into red waters. I can't wait to play it.

Sparkletop, good! Tolex, bad! That's magnificent. And I love the way it reflects your Shigeru.

Wow, what a fantastic setup! I love seeing the reflection of the Shigeru too.  Can you talk us through the different effect boxes you're using there? How they influence the sound etc. Cheers, James x

I love the sound in the demos - it sounds like a cross between a Wurly and a Rhodes.

How they influence the sound etc. Cheers, James x Definitely. I'm off to Tahoe for the weekend but when I'm back I will talk through the effects and create some clips too. I obviously don't run more than couple of effects at one time, but you can really get some great classic and experimental sounds when you couple the VV64 with nice effects. There is an effects loop, in which I have an Effectrode tube phaser and vibrato/chorus and also a wah, Fulltone tape delay and EQ. Effectrode pieces are my personal favorite. Just beautiful tube tones. I'm also using three Strymon pieces from the stereo output. The Blue Sky reverb, Timeline delay and Möbius multi modulation unit. The VV64 also has a great onboard stereo tremolo. I highly recommend the Strymon units for keyboardists because they can take line in and run stereo. They also sound quite amazing. The Möbius has rotary, Trem, chorus and a bunch of other modulation effects. The Timeline has bucket, digital, tape, etc. delays. Blue Sky does variations on 3 reverbs.
