[English]

Hey it's Andrew Huang! [Clap]

And today's one of those days where I feel like had way to much going on

And I just wanna have some low pressure jams where

[Suspenseful Music] where nothing dramatic can happen.

And really it's just an excuse to spend some quality time with some of my favorite music devices-

[Phone Ringing]

I'm sorry one second.

Hello?

Andrew, that terrible music video that we filmed,

the one that would destroy our careers if it ever came out, was never deleted.

We have to get that hard drive!

Well that seems pretty important.

I'll deal with it later!

As I was saying I picked out 3 music devices I wanted to play with today,

there's the Electro Harmonics Forty-Five Thousand Looper.

I really like this looper because you can record to four different tracks, and then change the volume

and panning of each of your loops after.

There's also speed adjustment and a fun reverse button, among other features.

I also like that it's built pretty dang ruggedly,

I've brought this on a couple tours with me and it,

it holds up to a lot.

Next up we've got the aesthetic AF Microgranny from Bastl Instruments.

I just think this little device is beautiful.

It's a granular sampler so it can really mangle your audio and chop things up

and loop and loop tiny little pieces.

I might experiment with using this input it has to record some samples

but I've also loaded it up with a bunch of random audio files that I had lying on my computer.

And last but not least we've got the OP-1

which does a little bit of everything, and you've probably seen this in a bunch of my other videos,

so I won't talk too much about it.

It's got the cow.

[Cow Noises]

So here's my plan.

Since we've got 3 different devices,

we can pair them up in 3 different ways

and have 3 different jams.

We can do Microgranny plus 45000.

We can do 45000 plus OP-1.

Then we can do OP-1 plus Microgranny.

Maybe before we do that though,

we should go figure out how we can help Rob?

I know the music video he's talking about,

it was something we made a long time ago that we decided should never be seen by anyone

for a lot of very good reasons.

Probably not a good idea to have that floating around.

Also though, I just really wanna jam with my toys, so...

I'm in kind of a dilemma.

This is a pickle.

[Pickle]

[Stares at Pickle]

[Pickle]

[Stares at Pickle]

[Pickle]

[Stares at Pickle]

You know, I'm just gonna let you decide. In this situation, what would you do?

[Walks Off Silently]

Also, if the end screens aren't showing up on your device, eh, I'll put the links in the description.
