“THE BEAST”

I call My looping station and accompanying instruments "the beast”

The evolution of the beast has taken me over 12 months of research, seeking expert opinion and trial and error with various musical instruments, multi effects pedals, stomp boxes, mixers, pre amps, specialized electrical equipment and PA systems.

The full live band sound I can create with this set up is amazing and powerful. I am refining my art every day and no doubt “the beast will keep growing”. 

I have so much fun and freedom when playing live. I have complete control over the live sound I engineer during a performance. The music created is so dynamic often songs evolve to where the mood takes them; whether it be an extended guitar solo, repeat chorus, heavy base lines or added drums to suit the vibe. Sometimes a pause or silence can be just as effective.

CENTRAL STATION

Central Station is the core of “the beast” consisting of multiple stomp boxes and effects pedals that collates my musical instruments through a mixer and then feeds into my RC300 Looping station. 

The live dynamic sound is then directed to another mixer, supporting professional speakers and a sub boasting over 6,000 Watts of combined explosive sound.

THE Beats

You can get very creative with percussion tools. Too many tricks to mention.

My Favs are;

“Roland” my drum pad

“Dead Beats” my drum stomp box and switch pedals

With these bad boys, I can bring various drum dynamics and flavoured beats. Rock, acoustic, electronic, you name it.
