Re: If You Could Keep Just One...

[Christopher Darrow <thedarrow@gmail.com>]

Well put;  The EDP is an instrument in and of itself. It's the immediacy 
of the thing, how it reacts as an extension of yourself... you think it, 
it happens, instinctual and yet at the same time you can go so deep and 
complex with it. It kept me entertained for 10 years. 

I've been trying to switch to digital for 3 years for the vastness of 
available sounds and routing and frankly basically I still am in-between, 
not playing hardly any music at all because I can't get back to the 
simplicity and immediacy of the EDP but the EDP alone (after 10 years) 
finally isn't enough for me, but not because of the EDP's looping 
capabilities or limitations... mainly because I'm a midiot (MIDI idiot) 
who can't seem to sync between beats I trigger and loop cycles AND vise 
versa the way I'd like to---via software or EDP, actually. Other people 
seem to do it, so I'm sure it's me rather then the EDP.

Anyway... If headed to a desert island (with electricity) take the EDP.
