Now that I have some time, I wanted to write and just say "hi". I've been involved with looping for at least seven years now and am glad to have been made aware of this list. I think it can be a wonderful resource... > My first introduction to loops was from hearing Brian Eno and Robert Fripp with Frippertronics. I'd beeen working with delays before that point, however, they were not long enough to do any substancial loops in my opinion. I unfortunately didn't have the money or the sources to find a couple of tape machines I could use so, I was still out in the cold... I then heard about the electro-harmonix peddal that had 16 seconds of sampling time and was reversable. From that point on, I was on a quest to find a peddal which was afordable and could achieve what I needed. What I found was the PDS8000 from digitech which worked quite nicely for a while but did not have the frequency response I was looking for. I then moved up to the RDS8000 which is the rack-mounted version of the same. It actually has a few more features than the peddal... Oh, by the way, for those who aren't familiar with those two things, they had a sampling time of eight seconds. I then heard about the Jam-Man and got one immediately when they came out and proceded immediately also to upgrade it fully. I've used the Lexicon ever since and I love it! I'm currently looking to get an Oberheim Echo-plex digital pro. > Anyway, enough about the gear... I am currently living in Boulder Colorado and don't find to many people here who know much about, or do much with looping. I work in a music store and currently teach guitar there also so if there's any place to meet musicians here, I'm there... If there's anyone in my area, please don't hesitate to write me. I like lots of different types of music so I'm open to just about anything... > Thanks again for the existance of this list, as loopers seem sparce to me where ever I am in the country. It's nice to hear that there is some sort of meeting place for us. I look forward to more interesting e-mail... > >smiles, > >Corynne > >P.S. Are there any other women on this list?
