When I was in Seattle playin the same night Lex said he played his sound files through filters/plugins and could manipulate them. Someone else had said he used Peak, a soundwave editor. After our sets, he showed a bunch of late-stayers his G3 & software plugins while I was busy packing up cables and gear, so somebody in Seattle must have got the details. It didn't seem that you could make fundamental compositional rearrangements with that setup as it was not unlike running a cd through some kind of wild digital efx... I liked a bit of the piano melody at the end with extra dsp noise added. I spotted that public enemy sample cutup that listees were talking about. I would have heard some more similar stuff while in new york but the schematic crew's regular nite was shut down the week i was there, ah well. I did meet john selway the night we played and then mr sybarite and mr lucky kitchen...both down earth and super-friendly! couldn't stay late enough to hear Selway's mix unfortunately...;-( Solenoid On Wed, 15 Sep 1999, William Fields wrote: > Does anyone know what these laptop musicians/DSP heads (lexanculpt, etc) are > actually doing when they go out and play 'live'?
