Hey there Corynne, My history is about the same except i play the cello and have been very successful at touring here and in Europe with solo concerts using looping as a base for alot of my compositions-improvizations..... If you like check out my site at http://kspace.com/kory i just saw an echoplex for sale yesterday on this chat-email line. if you have trouble to find it ,let me know. good luck and have fun! erich@interlinx.qc.ca >> >> Hello, I've just joined the looper's delight list earlier this >week and >have been listening to some the conversation back and forth. Now that I >have some time, I wanted to write and just say "hi". I've been involved >with looping for at least seven years now and am glad to have been made >aware of this list. I think it can be a wonderful resource... >> My first introduction to loops was from hearing Brian Eno and Robert >Fripp with Frippertronics.

I work in a music store and currently teach guitar there >also so if there's any place to meet musicians here, I'm there... If >there's anyone in my area, please don't hesitate to write me.

It's nice to hear that there is some >sort of meeting place for us. I look forward to more interesting >e-mail... >> >>smiles, >> >>Corynne >> >>P.S. Are there any other women on this list? > >
