Title: RE:peaters/cfc's & housekeeping

I wonder if other repeater users have ever had this experience: I had cause to swap the cfc's out between my two repeaters, one of which is studio-based while the other stays with the live rig.

they're both simpletech 128s &, very occasionally, give the "cfc too slow" message when I'm mucking about too much.

when I returned to the studio with the cfc from the live rig, I thought         I'd have a listen to what had accumulated in it after several gigs & no housekeeping.

I tend to use the card rather than the internal memory, & we keep just a few pre-fabricated parts in there, so most of what I found were odd bits of noise, snatches of solos, keyboard pads, fretless basslines & just general random stuff.

many of these bits are clearly audible in recordings of our gigs, but hearing the loops on their own in a different context was quite revealing, & it took me about an hour to work my way through them all.... fascinated, trying to recognise them.

& then I started wondering how best to archive them, or work them into new pieces..... or whether I even should.

a bit of a dilemma.

duncan.
