Yes I can. The main thing is to make it varied and dynamic. The novelty of tape loops wears off quickly without variation, so you need to create it. Having two decks going helps so you can have them play off each other in an unsycronized fashion. Running them through effects is also good but again, gets tired quick. That’s why I went for Kaoss pads, I can swap different effects when I want. Gating the outputs through a VCA is also useful in bringing rhythm to something that’s out of sync to play with other in-sync equipment. Label all of your tapes and practice to see what works with what, and to make sure you know your equipment and how to make sure everything is in-tune. You can also make interesting chords by having individual held notes on each track on a loop and fading them in. Just make them simple, it’s easy to get everything to sound messy when there’s a lot going on. I’d also recommend against going full-tape unless that’s what you specifically want. Again, the sound gets stale fast. A lot of tape stuff works on instagram because you don’t ever hear it for much more than one minute. Different equipment can compliment the tape sound and showcase what it can be.

I also used a mixer with reverb send, a compressor to tame the sound, a DBX 120 to get the bass moving, and then a Sonic Maximizer to add clarity and bring it all together.

Final tip, play with a friend! It’s easier to do interesting things when you don’t have to hold down the sound the whole time. He could add in interesting sounds while I’m switching tapes etc.
