Intro:
======
* Played through a Lexicon MPX-G2; From Guitar Player (November 1999):

  GP: You also have a Lexicon MPX-G2. Do you use it live? 

  Tim: Not yet, but I used it to record "Flowing" on the new album. The 
  beginning of that song is an effect preset from the MPX -- a stereo panning, 
  trippy guitar sound. We sat there until we got a take that sounded just 
  right, because each time I'd play, the effect would react differently. It's a 
  complex little unit. Typically, I'm thinking about effects when I write 
  parts, because some parts will bring a certain effect to mind, like, "Oh, 
  that would sound nice with a tremolo."
