hi Andy .good to hear from you > 3. CPU and audio CODEC are now under tin-plated brass screening cans to > minimise RF emissions, (bring them down to CE-approval levels). > 4. PCB now has 9 separate grounding/fixing points to the chassis. > Beigeface has 5 fixing points to the chassis, only one of these was a > ground point. > 5. The mains input socket is now a large screened filtered inlet. This > was a CE requirement to give the unit better immunity to noise from the > mains supply and to stop RF getting back out of the unit down the supply > cable. > 6. 50 very high quality capacitors have been added to all of the input & > output sockets to ensure that high frequency harmonics are not sent out > of the unit, (again, this was to bring them down to CE-approval levels). > These do not work down to anywhere near the audio frequency spectrum, so > do not interfere with audio quality. A couple of times I've had wierd problems with the 2 Beige EDPs together, with high frequency noise recorded into the loop. I suspect this is an RF emmission or earthing problem, as it was solved by rearranging the mains plugs at random. I also had the edps go out of sync occaisionally, but haven't played enough to be sure that probem is fixed as well. > 9. Loop4 software fitted as standard. A few of the Beige edps seem to have a problem with Loop4. If the edp reboots when the bro-sync jack is shorted out the problem is present. > 14. New packaging design to remove all polystyrene materials, (doing our > bit for the planet). The new box is similar in size to the original, but > now incorporates the EDP Footcontroller, which is supplied as standard. > (The new EDP will, I think, be available without the Footcontroller as a > special purchase at a reduced price. I'll check with Clive @ Gibson and > confirm this). yes, Loop4 needs a MIDI controller to fully exploit all the features. A lot of people won't need the FC-7 Are you going to do special deals for a pair of EDPs? > 15. New, totally re-written by Kim, 310 page fully-comprehensive manual > This new manual has also cost over $10 each to produce and we had many, > supplied printed in its entirety. I'd be interested in knowing anyone's > opinion on this now we've settled it. A hardcopy manual is essential. (just an opinion mind) Thanks Andy, it's really nice to have the opportunity for user feedback. andy butler
