I will walk you through the process of this project. I hooked up my record player to my Line 6 Spider amp. The amp was then hooked up to my stereo that records straight onto cd. As the record would spin, I would alter the speed using my finger and adding friction to the plate. I would toggle with the knobs on my amp adding delay, tape echo, phaser, and sweep echo effects. The reverb, mid, bass, drive, and treble knobs were also messed around with in each song. The echoing heard in songs was by using the delay and picking up the needle to let the last thing played echo out and then dropping the needle down to pick up where we left off. Each track recorded was done in one take and the entire EP is made up of 8 tracks.
