RE: looping in the dark



Being that it is a bear to program in daylight, yeah, that would be something! Even if you use your hands, your wrist will hurt for days with as much force as you need to press each button. After using the software editor though, and the UnO firmware- I don’t even know if I would be able to program it by hand or foot anymore. That’s pretty bad, I guess.

 

I also try not to look down too much, because I find it distracting when I see others do it. The FCB is pretty easy to hit right most of the time though.

ok , and who is able to program some patches into his FCB using his feet and with eyes closed ? Now that is a challenge ;-)

Excellent question! One of the things that bothers me about watching a looping performance has always been the constant eyes on the ground. Ive always incorporated my feet into my practice routines. Play a line, hit a switch. I've gotten to where I can pretty much hit it 95% of the time. I also come to gigs with shoes that I can slip out of easily. The FCB is easy to feel. And unlike other pedals, you wont accidently activate a switch if your foot touches it.

Still want that bluetooth lcd on my mic stand though.
