Re: MIDI Foot controllers?

Haha! It's a ROLAND manual! They're notoriously bad. I haven't seen a 
recent one,
but the old ones were so poorly translated that it was hilarious to try 
and read
them. You'd think a company with that much resources could afford to hire 
at
least one person who was FLUENT in the languages involved (at least in the
primary world languages).

Yes, that's bothered me too. I think it's because they want to charge you 
a lot
for replacement print copies. Something like $20 for a little thin manual 
last
time I checked. I love companies like Line 6 that put all their docs 
online (and
updates as well).
