How To Loop (How I Loop): Electro-Harmonix 45000 Full Demo

[@Potterzilla]

This is definitely one of those best videos on the 45000. Didn't expect that sick demo 🤙🏼

[@OurWullie007]

Thanks Christopher for taking the time to explain the magic of looping, you make it look easy. Your a natural on KZbin, keep it up.

[@roybriseno8071]

I'm in 8th grade and play trombone. me and a few of my friends are going to do one of your songs for a quartet

[@MonstaMunch101]

"If you're not playing live then you don't need a looper, I used to to it on software by blahblahblah". Using VSTs as loop stations isn't much fun, even if you're just jamming at home by yourself. They are good for messing around and exploring things when you don't want to go into full on production mode. That shouldn't be overlooked.

[@nossingo]

Totally agree. I just got a ehx 95000 and have no real aspiration to perform live (I have mercy on my fellow man). It's worth it just to have immediate feedback and be able to experiment easily without having to dick around with software, which messes up your groove.

[@harrisonmclain8008]

Christopher Bill you are a massive inspiration in my trombone career. Thank you for making these videos and keep at it. Your great. I wish I could learn from you in person. I've watched all your videos and thanks for the looping demo, I'm interested in learning how to loop and maybe do one for my school. I'm entering my freshmen this next school year. My current band teacher majors on trombone. He is also a great inspiration to me. Anyway, thanks for your time and effort in these videos. Your my favorite trombonist.

[@Marshal6000]

You don't know how long I've been waiting for this video!! Awesome!!!

[@pellencmael1489]

me too

[@michaelmazingo64]

This is awesome! Also, you're such an amazing player in person. I was at your performance in Troy yesterday (you may have noticed me, I was the one who screamed I love you......) keep up the good work!

[@wayneconkey3404]

Thanks for doing this. Seeing the inner workings makes us appreciate it all even more.

[@jayfoster]

Man thanks for such a thorough overview and demonstration. $600 is a lot of coin to drop on a looping solution. Great job sir

[@laurco]

Very cool CB thanks for sharing some of your knowledge!

[@josephandrewvictor]

Thanks so much! Best demo of the 45000 I've seen.... great trombone playing as well... much appreciated!

[@heyyitstim]

i am so ready for your album to come out

[@paulmeneely]

Thanks for that👌 Hope to see you at Redlands.

[@ohhiguy]

Mr Bill, I use to just like you. You were just a cool bone player. Now I LOVE you! So very cool. So empowering. It takes a generous person to share trade secrets. Most will not do it. I remember some time ago going to your web site and looking at your looping equipment. It seemed it totaled like $4,000, way out of reach. Now I can get excited again. When I grow up, I want to be like you. Thank you. Thank you.

[@marymorris8442]

so cool.........

[@noahverheyen5646]

Holy shit yeah man you're fucking awesome, keep up the search, there's gold ahead.

[@ajaynarayan9450]

Hey Chris, I would just like to recommend a channel called "Hal Leonard Marching Band." I think that you could get some ideas of songs to play from there. I love your videos, and hope you continue to play for a long time.

[@CyphaHouseTV]

Really dope! U really helped me...i'll need to look at this a few more times but thank u no one really breaks it down as clearly as u did

[@tesarik1974]

Thanks for the video! Well done and succinct. I would have considered this looper had I known a year ago. I like its functionality. I opted for the rc300 and am having fun with it.

[@brianlichty]

can this change from a verse to a chorus part? (in a live situation?) for instance: build up a verse loop, then stop it and immediately switch and start to play a different part with different chords and changes? and all live without hands. and without having anything pre recorded?

[@genovesatoriv1821]

You are great!

[@martinsknets1908]

this is so awesome, thx for the vid man

[@kimhosong]

You are number one

[@miamigroove]

Thank you for sharing this!

[@chasereeves]

Christopher - are you able to undo/redo with the footswich? How do you delete everything across all tracks? Is deleting possible from the footswitch as well?

[@classicaltrombone]

+Chase Reeves No undo or redo on this one. You can try again if it's the first thing on any of the tracks by using the punch in button to record over the track until you get a good take. If you want to delete everything you can just start a new loop and it will start from scratch, but for me if I want to silence out a track I just hit "punch in" and turn the mic input all the way down, so it record silence over the given track. All of this is done on the board, no foot pedals besides arming the track and hitting record. Hope this helps!!

[@lastsonofktn]

That was awesome thanks

[@beat461]

It was a nice surprise that you looped with another instrument then a guitar. I don't think there are many looping videos like that.

[@phoenixrising1576]

When u mix down do the new empty loops have to be same length/bars as the mixdown? Im thinking that could be a work around in getting dif bar lengths? Obviously u can only mix down once so u could have the mixdown say as 8 bars then loop 1 2 3 4 as 2 bars?

[@mctrashpedal]

Really helpful! I actually play trumpet through electronics so I would be using this fairly similarly. Think I'll subscribe.

[@Skywardsaiyan]

Honestly that quartet was pretty lit

[@coyoteserranoband]

Love this!

[@raymondmccumba5343]

Like your creativity Chris. Question, how do you connect guitar amp to the 45000 looper.? Thanks

[@bertnbirdgaming4315]

is there a way to clear the loop if something is recorded that you dont like? ive had this looper for a long while and the only way i know to clear a loop is by putting the sd card into my compurer and deleting it. any faster method you may have would be super helpful thanks!

[@rodneyriddnauer]

You rock like a monster sir. \m/

[@TruthSeekerAi]

i have the 95000 from the time it came out its 1 of best in the game indeed

[@TROGULAR10000]

well the 4500 holds its own on delay function since the faders determine, while in record, the number of repeats (all the way up is endless)

[@jasongitar]

Can the individual tracks be separated through the outputs for using multiple amps? For example, can you record a guitar on one track have it output to a guitar amp, then record a bass on another track and have that output to a bass amp?

[@soniaschmidt8723]

This is super helpful! Thanks for sharing! Did you experiment with putting sounds on the SD card from Ableton and using them live as well? I'm having a hard time putting them on for some reason, even though I am creating 4 tracks and a master track that are all the same length on each loop file. Let me know if you have some tips about that!

[@PaulGreeneofficial]

That was amazing.. you are so talented jeeez.. I just bought this... Do you know if it can do variable lengths on different tracks.. ie a longer drum loop ? thanks so much

[@user-bu6qr9ep7b]

Man boi you cold asf on that bone boi

[@gdrdm]

Hello! You said you hook the mic directly into the 45000, but isn't the level from the mic too low for line inputs? Are you passing it through a preamp of some sort? Cheers

[@mikedenheyer6769]

Anyone know if any foot switch is compatible with it? Or do u have to buy the electro harmonic one?

[@rodneyriddnauer]

10:07 whoa

[@dariomoehrke7907]

Hey Bill! You have a really nice sound and because of that I wanted to ask what kind of Trombones you have and where you studied. Very nice video and very informativ. :)

[@atrombonist]

Description of the video. There is a link to his official website where you can find his gear list.

[@drouk22]

how much time i have to record a loop ? with Korg KP3+ we have only 10 seconds....

[@holdencovington151]

GOOD GRIEF if I knew you were gonna be in Troy...I'm close enough that I would have come! Is there like a calendar of gigs you're booked for?

[@fgonzalez90]

Is there a simple form to "undo/redo" and "clear track" on this thing? Someone is offering the 45000 to me, but I've read a lot of complaints with the lack of these (IMHO, essential) functions.

[@user-sh4tn7iv9f]

Nice demo. Q; what functions CANNOT be used without the foot switch? Thanks

[@3OrMoreBones]

What's your opinion of using guitar pedals like Octavers, fuzzes, distortions, choruses, flangers, and ring modulators?

[@interstellardriftambientgu5834]

Great demo. Is the stereo mix down of any use in a live situation?

[@classicaltrombone]

Depends what you're trying to do! I've used it to mix down the A section of the tune and then it frees up all four channels for the B section, then it's just a matter of fading between the mix down and the four mains to go from one section to the other. You could also just mix down your rhythm section or something and it frees up the four for other textures. I tend to not need it, four channels seems to be enough.

[@RosalvoParadella]

What is the diference of 2280 looper to 45000 ? I have the 2280.

[@ethanpring3819]

Hey Chris, ive been looking into looping and was reccomended the digitech trio plus. Would that be good for what you do? Or would a boss rc3 be better?

[@loopfeel]

I am one of the few! haha, thanks so much for the info.. my friend just offered to sell me this puppy

[@findmads]

How do I erase everything on a track and start over? Also you demonstrated the Punch Inn function so fast that I couldn't really understand the purpose of it? Thx for the video

[@bluessgc]

"please post question on the comment"... lol he lost to say "to my stats only, i don't reply."

[@cuulcars]

Any recommendations on the software tutorials? Or did you just use a generic midi controller and program the controls to do what you want?

[@matthewhackett3429]

Can you go more in depth about panning and and the mix down track?

[@classicaltrombone]

Panning simply moves what is played on the track from the left output to the right (or both when in the middle.) To use the mix down, you arm it by clicking the mix down button, and then when you hit record, everything that's being played will be recorded to that track. You can create a balanced blend of the original four channels, then record it to the mix down track, and now you've freed up the original four tracks to record something new on each of them by using the "punch in" button to record over what was originally there. You might be able to add the new tracks to the old mix down in the same way, but I've never had the need or gotten that far. I'll try it next time!

[@matthewhackett3429]

Ok. But mix down aside. Is it possible to record 8 tracks on 4? 4panned left and 4 panned right? I know old tape units operate that way

[@mitchellwestern2829]

Did the pan on loop 2 bother anyone else?

[@moniaci7]

How do I get the vocals to work if I’m plugging it into a mixer?

[@pecasmusic]

Hey Chris, is there a way to set an exact tempo? Or only when syncing it with another device?

[@thestylesworld]

Can we trigger loops in series? Like when one track stops and the other starts in same tempo?

[@youngalistairyou]

Have you had any problems with your machine?

[@harrisonmclain8008]

How long can you record on one track?

[@rodneyriddnauer]

13:10 sav-a-mix

[@rodneyriddnauer]

_ 8:11 _ punch in

[@michaelfalcone3713]

Can you delete a overdub on a selected track if so how?

[@classicaltrombone]

On this specific machine there is no undo/delete button, so you're either recording a new layer on top of a track or recording over the entire track/all of the previously recorded layers on that track (by recording with the punch in button on).

[@analogsynthmuseum784]

quantize ?

[@collinmanderson]

Radiohead uses this. See the beginning of this concert. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5yblZuQrZaXotE

[@moniaci7]

What is I don’t like a recorded track on track 2 for example, how do you re-record it on the same track without having 2 different ones on track 2?

[@drucripps9186]

Bring the slider right down on track 2 and hit record and record nothing or do the same with the puch in button

[@oliviathegay4691]

Where did you get that?

[@Bolbi_]

What's the song he's playing in the outro?

Forte its from his album "half man, half machine", from the song Power Down
