I agree with Kris, sounds very interesting! -Qua -----Original Message----- From: Krispen Hartung [mailto:khartung@cableone.net] Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2007 7:35 PM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Re: Promotion and sympathetic reviews Art, how do we access the CD or clips? I am very interested in your max percussion patch. I plan to build one myself that creates random percussion textures, using the max's synth objects. In fact, I'd like to build it so that it reacts to the guitar, based on number of notes played in a period of time.
