I created the “Full VLog Gig Performer episodes” section in the first post and listed 8 episodes (keep ‘em comin’). :slight_smile:

So this latest one I just did-- Mike Rosenstark VLog: Jan 12, 2023 "Mike Off the Chain" - YouTube (it’s still processing as I write this) but this one is really near & dear to my heart, because I’m finally getting familiar & comfortable enough with GP to really allow artistic expression. No talking, though: I’ll put a full talky-talky version up tomorrow probably. Also thanks for your support!

But suffering a lot! :rofl:
The sound is rich and full of interesting effects, and your presence brings a delightful madness. Really impressive performance, I love it :star_struck:

9

wow thanks so much! I’ll do another crazy one tomorrow.

10

this one isn’t THAT crazy, but it’s a solid effort nonetheless: Cool stuff you can do with Internet Radio stations: Gig Performer #13 - YouTube

Number Nine… Number Nine… :rofl:

Just said to another GP person this morning: “If the Beatles had Gig Performer they would’ve released another 150 albums”

13

Putting another one up now…this time I tried “maximizing” the audio track so I think it’ll be loud as hell

14

quite proud of this bit of insanity

15

And John Cage would have been proud of you too :wink:

16

I think he definitely would have loved this one: Mike Rosenstark Vlog: January 22, 2023: Gig Performer #19 - YouTube

Also if you check out that photo mosaic of “Starry Night” in the background: I made that!

A must-watch episode :slight_smile:

Another fine example of “the possibilities are endless!” :grinning:

Here I use an electric kalimba, or mbira, through an elaborate guitar rig, experimenting with pitch shift, reverb, delays, reverse delays, filters, tape emulators, and so forth. The kalimba has a built-in piezo pickup, which I run through an LR Baggs Para piezo preamp into my Neural DSP Quad Cortex, and then into my computer for further processing in Gig Performer using a wide variety of plugins.

Mike also reacts with some comments to his video (possibly a new invention! :slight_smile: ) and gets inspired to dance. :smiley:
