Re: The EDP and the Looperlative and me



This is sincere and beautiful in the reality of what this community is about and with me being naive to particularly the EDP, the discussion is like a study with Mr Wizzard that I can wide-eyed benefit from but as I was reading through Mark's opening and Rick and Bill back/forth I just started laughing thinking of the early Jane Curtain / Bill Murray news spoofs on SNL, the 'Jane you ignorant slut!' routine that this innocently reminded me.

Beautiful guys.  Wishing everyone a wonderful and creatively Happy New Year.

Rick,
       Mark is simply stating that he likes the EDP. He gives his reasons and I for one can understand them. He is aware of the looperlative but isn't interested in spending a lot of time programming it and a midi pedal to use it. That seems straighforward. He prefers the EDP, you prefer Looperlative - like I said horses for courses.
 
Peace
 
Gareth
