Good to know. I’ll contribute, FYI. I’ll contact him off line about that via the mobius site, just thought I’d put the idea out there. All though I get that it’s probably more about time then money, but still. Having been an echoplex lover, I’m even more interested to see what’s next for echoloop. I check back every 4-6 months or so but doesn’t look like it’s changing either. > On Feb 5, 2016, at 2:13 PM, Per Boysen <perboysen@gmail.com> wrote: > > Yes, Torben.
