Hello

[nyfac <nyfac2@nyfac.com>]

Siobhan-

I have been suspecting for a while that my messages have not been
getting through to the group, although when I send personal email (like
this) I don't seem to have a problem.

All this time I thought I was meerly boring and/or tiresome.  Then I
sent in a few messages on my NT station, and all the sudden people
responded.

Anyhow, have you seen any of the following messages?

Subject: digitech RDS 900(0?) looks like the Time Machine

Anyone know the difference between the 900 and the Time Machine? There
doesn't seem to be much info on the site.

I got to fool around with one last night-  a friend has one which went
on the fritz, so I popped the top off and took it for a ride after I
fixed it.  Really very, very cool in a low tech grotty kind of way. 
Anybody looking to get rid of one?


Trevor

PS:  I have noticed that when I send mail to the list off my NT I get
responses, but when I send from my SGI I don't (although personal email
works fine)...  Does my O2 make me boring, or does the NT make my
somehow more interesting?

If this makes any sense, I don't get return messages when I mail from my
O2, but I do when I send from my NT.

Anyhow, if anyone sees this (I'm on the SGI) and you have a moment to
spare, would you be so kind as to send me some email to
nyfac2@nyfac.com?  Thanks.

To make up for the unmitigated (un-midi-gated?) techno-dorkery of all of
my posts, I thought I would try to take my head away for the soldiering
boars for just a minute and ask:

What sort of lineups to the LD musicians use?

I am in two bands now.  Looping seems sort of pointless for one, and I
am planning on working it into the other.  A project I was part of while
ago made good use of the loops (2 gtrs, bass and drums)  but I have
found in general, the fewer people, the better the loopage.  My quandry
is that I am not particulary excited by the sound of myself playing
alone- I enjoy the interactions between musicians to be the most
rewarding part of being a musician.


What do all think?  How do you set up your own bands/ensembles/sonic
orgies?

There's a few more but I shan't fill up your inbox.  Thanks.
