Heidi Chan will be our special guest for March.

Experimental sequencing and looping: Personal approaches to non-linear sequencing and loop-based music creation 

This talk/demo introduces some personal ideas and approaches to using sequencers and loopers in non-typical ways. 

Gear highlight: Westlicht PerFormer 8-track Eurorack sequencer, Eventide Timefactor looper. Both of these pieces have a few unique features that set them apart from similar tools, and make them unusually flexible for those who are looking for more experimental and non-linear ways to use sequencing and looping in their setup.
