RE: Wrong Ways

Andre,

Please submit the patch settings to Loopers-Delight.  I'd like to try it.

Also, I haven't tried this idea yet, but it may provide interesting 
results on the Vortex:  Create an interesting program with one of the 
algorithms.  Then use the same settings with all of the other algorithms.  
Something strange or unusual should happen on at least one of the 
algorithms.

I used to do this with a Yahama DX7 and it often provided interesting 
results.

Thanks,
Mark Kata

I have a couple of Vortex patches where the volume of looped repeats
sometimes and unpredictably actually gets *louder* as it repeats.  The
problem is that it eventually starts clipping the internal processors and
freaking out into a total overload of digital distortion.  I haven't found
any logical pattern as to what causes this.  Kinda fun, as long as you 
keep the feedback control well within reach...
