Thanks!
It is a magic box, and I waited way too long to get it.
The new Chase Bliss pedal, Habit, is basically a delay - but has a 3 minute buffer that is always recording. A knob called spread will mix audio from the buffer into your delays as a secondary (double tap) delay, and the scan knob just throws bits and pieces of sound from the buffer out there randomly.
So I had the idea of feeding the buffer dialog from an iPad and seeing what would happen. That aside, this is a pretty lovely soundscape that I'm very happy with.
I've been quietly live streaming while working out a small mobile ambient rig that'll I'll be using outside this weekend. If Twitching is something you do, please do follow me as once I get thru this gig I hope to put my work area back into order with an eye towards streaming more often.

Here's some snippets of the mobile rig from the last few days:
Thanks, for listening, for your time, and for your comments.
This was a great experiment, the past few weeks playing on a minimal board, preparing to use that board on a beach.
I've got a lot of footage from the beach to sort thru, but I'm even happier with a practice run from Twitch a few nights before that resulted in something lovely. Working on that video now, hoping to have them both online in the next week.
You've done a wonderful job of downsizing your rig, yet still sounding full.
I agree with Gizmotron, the 2nd one is my favorite, and also you DO have a real talent for this.
Have fun with your live streams.

This live stream a few days ago was kind of a revelation. This is basically what I've been hoping to be able to do for a loooong time. Nice to see these sounds from my head finally realized.

It's really nice. Reminds me of Frippertronics.
What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it brings forth a sound (2112)
This was an improvised stream working the kinks out of a small mobile board (to use at the beach, in the video above) that sounded so nice I cleaned it up and released it as an album.

I really like this one James.
I don't have enough attention span for long pieces, this one fits perfect in to my mind.

Funny you should ask. Just posted this today. This is pulled from a longer Twitch ambient live stream, which is what I'm directing most of my energy towards these days. I'm a bit unfocused right now, and going live and just improvising for an hour is the easiest way for me to be creative these days.

Thanks!
Can I use "Ooh I think I recognize that sort of sound..." in my marketing? Maybe a sticker on my next album cover?
