RE: What is the appropriate forum?

["Ace Ovil" <aovil@wfubmc.edu>]

Thank you Rainer,
I have been preforming "live looping" (not even sure if that is the
correct term) semi professionally for about 6 years now, but I have
recently come to realize that the rate of progress I am making
artistically and technically is exponentially declining. 
I feel like I have taken all I can from the EDP manuals which thus far
have been my bible. This is why I am finally seeking out others like me
or similar for advice and inspiration. I have been so engrossed in my
own learning of the process until now, that I haven't really had time
for this sort of thing before. 
This is likely why I am behind the times on who and what exactly is out
there, but I can already tell there is a seriously endowed brain-trust
here.
Thank you for clearing up the "etiquette". How exactly does one search
the archives so I can stop pestering everyone?
Looking forward to chatting with you all soon.
Ace

If people cease to respond to your messages, they were probably not 
exactly cool. If people actually tell you to stop, you did something 
self-ionization uncool ;).

There's just no more strictly defined etiquette. There aren't ranks like

in a forum, gained by writing a certain number of messages or so. Just 
assume you joined a merry round in a pub....

Depends on what you mean by "small". Subscriber-wise: don't know, really

- may very well be. Knowledge-wise: definitely not.

For a beginner:
There's some info collected, both on the loopers-deligh.com site and on 
Matthias Grob's site: http://livelooping.org/
Of course, on the LD site, all the archives from this group are archived

- if you know what you look for, you may find it there.

Apart from that: ask (and see above).
