Hi ho back, Ted What happened was 2008! And just immediately, a shitty client. But frankly, about 2 months ago, I finally acknowledged that I'd been mostly thinking about that 99 as a rainy-day savings account almost since I got it. I haven't picked up a guitar out of any more compelling impulse than nostalgia since I moved out here, really. And I certainly went for the 99 with revival fantasies about my old VG- programming glory days, more than from any more fundamental or energetic longing. I'd been planning on checking out how my VG-88 patches would translate to the 99, when my free-time ship finally came in, since it's clearly the son of 88, and only a distant cousin to the VG-8, which was a far more interesting box, imo. I was hoping that this would be a good way for me to start to unlock it. So that was a pretty negative light to be regarding the whole enterprise with, I guess, considering how much I prefer the 8. It takes serious motivation to wrestle down these 66- gabillion-options boxes, and I'm just not inspired that way any more. There, said. (Still buying soft-synths, though…) It's painting that's waiting for me and my happy, must-be-coming! span of free time; I'm chomping on that bit, I can tell you. Plus, I still have both the old VGs, just in case, so that road's not completely grown over, yet… Thanks for asking:) And best to you, too. Hope all's well and looking cheerful over there in the Medford/Ashland corridor. I finally visited Ashland, btw, last Nov, on a fluke-ish photo assignment from my old employer. Sweet place! It was a distinct culture shock after Brookings. I was surprised at how completely I'd forgotten what it's like to walk down a street bustling with prosperous and cultured professionals and the shops and amusements that cater to them. (hey, I think I just sold it…seeya!) dc On Jan 10, 2009, at 1:20 PM, tEd ® KiLLiAn wrote: > David, > > What happened? > > I was depending on you to be the VG genius guru who would figure > this thing out for me. > > Oh well. > > If I had the money, I'd buy yours, but cash is tight on this side of > the mountain too. > > I'm making "some" headway with mine but during the winter months > it's awfully cold out in the studio/garage where my gear is set up. > > Was the some deficiency you discovered in the 99 that made you > decide to skip it? > > Hi ho. > > Best belated holiday greetings to you. > > Now that I have your snail mail address I can post a Christmas card > next year. > > Best regards, > > tEd ® KiLLiAn > > Creativity represents a miraculous coming together of the > uninhibited energy of the child with its apparent opposite and > enemy, the sense of order imposed on the disciplined adult > intelligence. – Norman Podhoretz > > http://www.myspace.com/tedkillian > http://www.reverbnation.com/tedkillian > http://www.pfmentum.com/PFMCD007.html > http://www.CDbaby.com/cd/tedkillian > http://www.guitar9.com/fluxaeterna.html > http://www.indiejazz.com/ProductDetailsView.aspx?ProductID=193 > http://guitarplayer.com/article/y2k6-international-live/Jun-07/27768 > > Ted Killian's "Flux Aeterna" is also available at Apple iTunes > > On Jan 10, 2009, at 9:38 AM, David Coffin wrote: > >> Greetings, gang >> >> Lack of playing time/interest x lack of cash = Selling VG >> +foot controller.
