Adding a "tips and tricks" pamphlet - separate from the manual -- seems like a great idea to me. What a wonderful way to explore some of the many different EDP uses. I would suggest requesting limiting submissions to 1-page and using a standard format or categories to help keep information focused and complete. 1. Overview / What this set-up does 2. System Requirements Memory / Available Loop Time Internal Settings: Specific Presets 3. Other? 4. Other? 5. Here's what you do...(step-by-step instructions) 6. Name / e-mail of person submitting "tip"?? I remember a class in high-school which we all were asked to give step-by-step instructions to make a peanut butter sandwich. You'd think it was obvious. So did we. The teacher specified that we would get to eat what our instructions lead our partner to make. Initially, quite an incentive... Things got very messy and maybe 4-5 out of 20 or so kids got to each a decent sandwich. The rest of us asked if we could just clean up the mess we'd helped create rather than eat it... Moral: Giving instruction is hard.

I would like to have a chapter devoted to applications of the Echoplex from all musician's who use it - DJ's, percussionists, horns, woodwinds, strings, etc. We would compile these techniques and either add them to the existing manual or publish a separate User's Guide. Do you think this would be beneficial? Any thoughts on how best to present the material? I would appreciate your help, and am eager to hear from you. Thanks!! Tom
