Incredibly beautiful stuff. You really nailed the audio aesthetic that tape loops can offer up.

[@John-mf1sz]

Thought I was listening to the Twin Peaks OST there was a sec, man.
Very Angelo Badalamenti in the vibes.
Which is an awesome thing!
Love this 👍🏼

[@danielsolomon63]

I am still trying to get over how you placed the tape in its case...masterful!

[@thejawshop-AdventureRecording]

Love the pedals. The 424 is my fav 4track.

[@ivorydunsty]

Great tutorial man!! Sounded lovely, kinda reminded me of the music in Twin Peaks for some reason... awesome :-)

[@John-mf1sz]

Yep he may not have realized it but he 100% stumbled into the OST there for a sec at the beginning 😁

[@foot_music]

The track turned out really great! Always love seeing other people's tape loop processes!

[@wellwishesmusic]

This is so nice. Very inspiring.

[@BrianFunkMusic]

Really nice. I love the way you pitch shifted the chords.

[@stevethomas4022]

Have you got the pedals chained? Is there a way to have a an individual pedal to an individual track so each track is using a different pedal?

[@rodericklopez9850]

I like the way you planned out your workflow. You put in some good work here. And you have some beautiful music to show for your efforts :)
Thank you for sharing... subscribed.

[@SeriousThingsTomorrow]

Really great man. Love the extra speed control on the 424!

[@pedalpartners]

i love the process & resulting sounds ✨

[@otepsia1697]

Quel son ! C'est magnifique.

[@mauriciomota8448]

I have a doubt. watching the video I see a cable coming out of the "send" of the tascam, the signal goes through the pedals... but, where does the "output" signal from the zoom pedal go? For an interface? I'm trying to learn how to use effect pedals on my tascam, ... i need a little help here :)

[@oliverscarlin]

Very inspiring!

[@metasua]

from 6:40 I thought I was watching a Twin Peaks episode

[@John-mf1sz]

Haha, you’re the second comment I found thinking this.
Glad I’m not alone 😁

[@bobbychaos]

Sounds great, such rich texture.

[@ilovejesus007]

this is an old video so not sure if you will reply but what do you use to record all the audio coming out of the tascam and pedals?

[@AyDubs007]

Really cool!

[@beauclaus]

sorry if this is a dumb question - but why did you place the foil there?

[@RadicalOwl493]

Thanks for making this! Helpful and inspiring.

[@jt_climbing]

wonderful

[@3SpeedBananaSeatMedia]

Great infos. Thanks for posting this.

[@RemmyMusic1]

when you playback the tape, are you recording your headphone monitor feed from the tascam? theres hardly any noise !

[@boymakesmusic]

wow this sounds absolutely incredible!

[@hammies.]

so cool. neat sounds and aesthetics. everything works so well together

[@mushdath]

Tks!!! Nice tutorial!!!! ❤

[@connorlawrence8003]

I recently got one of these however it didn't come with the original power supply? Are you using the original power supply? Or just a 12v that matches the rigs power supply specs?

[@Almanacs]

Beautiful! Keep up the amazing work!

[@sunrise2x464]

Just got around to watching this. So amazing

[@mrcwalker33]

Really interesting, thank you!

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

Amazing...

[@reamp0000]

Awesome

[@marcobechere4452]

I love this tutorial, so useful

[@sundaynightcoffee]

I should have watched this first! I found my answer! haha thank you for this!

[@palafonsimard]

wonderful and helpful! a question : how did you route your effects?

[@realmsofficialmusic1398]

Beautiful work

[@slowbass]

excellent stuff 👍

[@seek4truth]

Thank you for the nice ideas!

[@roach7616]

awesome, what synth is that?

[@ChrisCorrado]

this is beautyful

[@Tarnaybeats]

This is awesome man! Subbed!!

[@bliss3174]

Great vid

[@Drinkyoghurt]

Hey man, so if I understand correctly you can't just have a master in and send that to different channels, you have to plug in the input into another channel each time you want to record a separate channel? I have a 424 on the way and want to make sure I get the workflow right. Cool stuff!

[@VevozoneTV]

What cassette did you use? Just bought a 4-track and don’t know what cassette to get.

[@ianhouck9668]

I just bought the 424 and the recommended tape is a 60 or 90min maxell high bias

[@bliss3174]

How do I clear a used cassette tape with the tascam 424? I don’t wanna use a new one to cut a loop from

[@bigsby19]

Just record on all 4 tracks to erase them.

[@ManuelMartinez-dy7gv]

Nice nice nice nice nice nice nice nice.
Nice.

[@ManuelMartinez-dy7gv]

I'm in awe. This is so beautiful.

[@goldenearring725]

What synth is that?

[@jo2058]

koeg i think the monologue

[@Dionisaf]

impression as if immersed in sound

[@bucksmoonlightrevival]

I got a minilogue also, it's great! We just finished a concept album recorded on the Tascam 488 Portastudio. It's alt-folk style music with some experimental sounds like tape loops, musical saw, synths, field recordings, etc. It's uploaded on our channel if you want to check it out!

[@setphaser]

rookie move, always splice tape diagonally.

[@John-mf1sz]

Well, 45* angle cut is what it should be to easily splice it without hastle, but you don’t *have* to, it is a bit easier that way, however.
