Points taken.  For me the pedal issue is significant -
what I've read on LD over the years is that to
reproduce ALL the functionality available with the
companion pedal for the EDP would require a MIDI pedal
costing quite a bit more than that companion pedal.

I will also take Claude's advice to search the used
market for EDPs.  Who knows, I may end up with both in
the future.  Right now though, my focus is on learning
the basics of the turntablist method.

Sounds consistent with what I've read about Gibson
corporate behavior over the years (the handling of
Opcode, suing Paul Reed Smith Guitars, etc.).
