    In fact, you've inspired me to try it out for myself as I've also got a loop pedal. You're right - it's a great & fun song to do!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!

    Nice work! Been scouring the net for examples of loop pedals done well and this has to be one of the best! Completely entertaining and fantastic musicianship, man. Thanks for sharing

    Respect...Excellent use of a loop pedal and a most affable voice...was thinking about buying a Boss RC-50...you've swayed me to the 'ayes'

    Hey, I think it's great! I have a JamMan and you've just got to play around with it for all the background sounds. Good job on this! And you look like you're having a good time. That's even better!

    Sweeeet! Very creative... you got me thinking if I should get a loop pedal :)

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  17 років тому

    Well, the natural thing to do when you get a toy like that is stay in your room for countless hours trying to figure out how to use it. Glad ya dig it.

    @JoshsTubeRocks The layers are unlimited, by you can only remove the last one recorded. Thus, I save any melodic loops for last, so I can remove them for a bridge, for example. I'm not sure what "duel" refers to. That might mean it has duel inputs, which is a very good thing. I don't think any of them limit the amount of layers.

  • @markaaronjames

    They are cheaper in the US. I saw a guitar only Boss loop pedal at Guitar Center for $185. If you want to incoporate voice with a separate volume control then it's around $300. There are some cheaper used ones on ebay.

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  15 років тому

    Thanks, glad ya dig it. I used a JamMan by Digitech.

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  14 років тому

    @musikcentralen1 I've worked out a lot of songs with mine now. They really are a lot of fun. I'll post some more soon. Good luck with the pedal.

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  17 років тому

    I'm using an Am adding and removing a G bass for most of the song. The rest is a F and G, and an E at the very end of phrases. Hope that helps. Have fun.

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  14 років тому

    @mikeyburns319 It's my own arrangement. I play mostly by ear, so I just figured it out. Glad ya dig it.

    got to say m8 this is awesome, just ordered an akai headrush loop pedal for my acoustic set up, top job m8

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  13 років тому

    @broadwaybound1000 I played an Am with a moving G bass line for the verse with F to G for the turn arounds. That's pretty much it.

  • @markaaronjames
    @markaaronjames  16 років тому

    Thanks. It was a Digtech JamMan.

  • @TheLoneJester
    @TheLoneJester 16 років тому

    Being a huge MJ fan, I'm usually sceptical about remixes of his songs, but that was amazing! Awesome job. I'm just surprised you don't have more views. You left out a few lines of Vincent Price, but that is negligible. Again great job. Favorited!

  • @markaaronjames

    No, none of the notes change. I'm playing the guitar part live and the bass line that I sang fits in with all of the chord structures, both in the verse and chorus.

  • @markaaronjames

    @JoshsTubeRocks Mine's a couple of years old now, but I've been using the Digitech JamMan. It has been a simple learning curve and I've had good customer service when it had a problem last year. I made this video within a few days of buying it, so you can see how easy it was to figure out. It also has a dual input for guitar and vocals, which the smaller units don't offer. I haven't tried many others, but I'm happy with this one.
