Hehe, well the point of calling it nothing but REAPER was really about the plugins. Every time I tell someone that I'm using the Linux version of REAPER the first thing they say is something like,
Yeah, but if I can't run plugin(X), then it isn't really usable.
So I decided to both make a point, and prove to myself that I could indeed make music without plugin(X), which I also have a few of. Things like the plugins that use PACE with an iLok for instance. I didn't use any of those plugin on this song.
I'm weening myself off of Windows and Microsoft, and the plugins that won't run or install on WINE in Linux are getting less important to me. There weren't any plugins when I used 1" tape, and it didn't prevent me from making music.

Distortion kinda sounds like my old Digitech RP100, which IMO wasn't a bad toy at all. I made a couple of recordings with it earlier on and they don't even sound completely bad.

I really like Digitech's pedals. The old Digitech RP7 has both a tube based 12AX7 preamp, and a solid state preamp that you can create programs with to use one or the other, and also create programs using both wired in either in series or parallel.
The bass on this project is going through a Digitech BP200 bass amp modeling pedal that I pretty much leave always on a SWR amp model with eight 10" speaker model.
