The point of the pedal is to be simple and direct. It covers most of the functions without using too many buttons, the main functions are easy, and it doesn't have a lot of stuff in it to break while getting kicked around the stage. For most people it covers everything they do with the echoplex. As you saw while proposing something else, everybody has different needs. As soon as you try to make a more complex pedal, you quickly get to where nobody agrees what it should do. If you put every function on it, it would be huge and unusable. If you take some functions out, some segment of users will not like it. That is why we have extensive midi control. If you want a more complex controller, use midi. Then you can customize it any way you want. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
