Myself I wasn't able to wait for the delayed shipping date and as I ran into an emergency I picked up the existing Gordius pedal to keep momentum. If someone on the list is getting the SoftStep now it would be nice if you could post your first impressions from a loopist's perspective :-) http://www.keithmcmillen.com/products/softstep/ Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.boysen.se www.perboysen.com www.looproom.com internet music hub
