Re: LOOPERLATIVE demo schedule at NAMM

Hi Per,

 I can't comment for Bob, but from my s/w developer standpoint there are
multiple methodologies that result in new features... the first is knowing 
what
a feature should be, and implmenting it... while another is recognizing 
that
based on the underlying technology something is possible (ie. what would 
it be
like if I were to break up the play back based on manipulating the 
pointers to
the loop memory?)... sometimes these ideas are 'novel', and other times 
they
turn into wonderfully creative tools... :)

 I've been on board to help Bob with the LP1 since September, but until 
recently
I had not been able to give it the attention level I desired.. anyways, I 
am
now working on the MIDI side of things, implementing a more robust midi
control.. as well as working on MIDI related bugs (currently I see two 
reported
on the message board, both relating to the same issue, which I believe I 
have
located, and should have a fix done soon)... Please feel free to throw MIDI
related ideas my way.. :)
 
peace
