This reminds me of an Anthony Wellington clinic where he talks about shifting the pattern. I love your taking an elements and repeating and slightly altering idea. It really freshens up my solos after 2 minutes.

Hi Aaron!

It's a Korg Pandora, basically a pocket-sized multi-effects/tuner/drum machine etc. Very cool unit!

The new version is about £79 and is called the Korg Pandora Mini :-)

Nice one! Wellington's a great muso and a great teacher :-)

Thanks for another good lesson, Mr. Scott. It's pretty cool of you to do while on the road! Slightly off question: what's the little box you're using to turn the drums on and off? I can imagine it's some kind of controller for your laptop; even more curious to know if it's a little drum machine (and certainly which one specifically, if so)? Thanks again; looking forward to #10. Safe travels.
