RE: Any dj's using loops live (The Rest Of You Can...)



Er-

If you can't appreciate the beauty of the technical/musical concepts
Richard generously shared regarding making music with delay lines/sampling
on the Loopers Delight list, then you need to consider if you belong
here... Please don't take this as a personal attack, but c'mon...

To complain about "self righteous techno-jargon" on this list is pretty
lame in IMO, now had Richard written out a Smalltalk program or intense MSP
code you might have had a valid complaint, had the original reply shown the
slightest degree of class in his reply to Richards post.

Once the smoke dies down, I look forward to hearing about how well the
Cycloops works.

best-

Mark
