Re: One EDP for two players

Fabio,

    Not sure if someone has already given you this answer, but here it 
goes, 
... try this out, try using a set of A/B switches for the audio inputs to 
the 
Echoplex, this might give you a little more control over what is going on 
with the unit and also would allow for you to do a few samples of the 
other 
person's playing while they are able to concentrate a bit more on their 
playing, and then you'd be able to designate the beginning and end of that 
specific loop or help him/her out with generating multiple loops.

    Another way of doing this would be to use a smaller PA Board and mix 
into 
the echoplex the same way as using the A/B switches method.  It would end 
up 
taking a little more time between setting up loops and then playing 
them/activating them, but it would still be quite do-able.  The added 
benefit 
would be to use a few other effects in line with this smaller PA board in 
order to make the transitions a bit more continuous sounding.  Played with 
a 
gent that did this with his Boomerang, prior to my getting one, and it had 
some really interesting results.  Either way, you'll want to use a volume 
pedal right after either the PA board or the A/B switch in order to blend 
in 
the sounds.

    Hope this helps out.
