If anyone cares..
His drummer does a lot of the looping.. his name is Dosh and he is himself his own band called DOSH. myspace.com/doshanticonIt is fairly incredible.. here is a blog from his site saying how the shit works. It is capable of really complex shit, but if you know what the gear is it is actually pretty simple and kind of affordable....
a lot of folks ask about the live set up, so here it is.... a diagram might be helpful, but i don't have one yet.....
the gear that i use in my live show is thus:
fender rhodes 54
roland juno 106
dr sample 303
3mics (beta 52 for the bass drum, sennheiser 602 for
the snare and a e/v 303 for my "floater mic", which
i move around to capture different
sounds, hi hat, cymbals, glockenspiel, dropping metal
objects, etc.)then....
all of this stuff is run into a mackie 1402 mixer and sent out of the main outs MONO, at which point it passes through these effects:
boss DD5 delay
dunlop roto-vibe
big muff
akai e1 headrushthen it goes into the main loop pedal:
akai e2 headrush
and the signal gets split into pre-loop and post loop, and the post loop is routed through another boss dd5, which is then routed back into the mackie, via the alternate 3/4 send, and then to 2 DI boxes which is all the sound person gets to mix my set.
thats it.
