Re: eventide orville

[Anthony Justman <pantonio@pacbell.net>]

I bougth an MPX1 when it first came out and used mostly slightly tweaked
presets initially.  Once I rolled up my sleeves and programmed a few of my
own and then linked a midi controller to "patches" I was really impressed.
Its like a vortex on steriods and then some and it sounds great!  (I loved
my vortex, but couldn't tolerate the rolloff above 12kHz).

But I'm still coveting another high quality FX box.

I'm a little surprised that the MPX1 reverbs don't hold up as well, but the
Eclipse is rough 3.5 times as much $$$ for what the MPX1 is going for these
days.

I own no Eventide stuff.  How steep is the learning curve to program it?
