I this video, i explain how i synchronize my Tascam 414 multitrack tape recorder with my modular synth. This is a nice trick if you want to make something rhythmic. For this musical piece, i made a drum tape loop on a cassette, and i use it to send beats to my modular synth. The frist part of the video explain how it works, the second part is a little live music performance using this set-up. Enjoy !
