WOW - It's great to see so many familiar names.
Something here clearly has been a powerful force for many of us.
For myself, discovering this looping community helped me know that, while I at first didn't know anyone near who was looping, I wasn't alone or crazy for doing live sound-on-sound looping performances.
I still have the same rack of outboard gear and little pedals I used 20 years ago.
It's a pain in the neck to cart around.
And standing on one foot while pumping a volume pedal isn't as fun as it used to be.
But noting else gets "that sound" - so I remain the dinosaur.
When it's all cranking through a big PA, aaahhhhh, there's nothing like it!
