Clint you hit the ball ive learned quite a lot from some threads in this list which sometimes have an uninteresting header for me and was about to delete! and this is precisely what makes me coming back,weather is a link to a great non looping inspiring musician,equiment,effects,ways of routing things,or taking a break and having a philosophy discussion,sometimes somewhere on a line i find what i was looking for.Compared to other forums this is still the best and more focused,but yes we do sometimes forget to change the subject.
