Re: EDP Hardware Interface
What you guy are pointing out to me is that many
more features are accessible from the existing EDP hardware interface than I'm
taking advantage of.
And that some others capabilities are easiest
accessed via a midi controller.
Dealing with all these variables/parameters live
and while playing with other people is just a headful of stuff to keep track
of.
I guess I'm just a bit of a bonehead and hate
dealing with manuals.
AURISIS -- is the Loop IV software
code-base portable to the PC and MAC OS's??
