RE: EDP functions without using MIDI

["Gary Lehmann" <healthquestrecruiter@earthlink.net>]

This is posible of course without MIDI by using record and ending with 
mute,
then hit mute (possibly twice, if quantize is on) to start the loop
playback.
I know this is simple but it works very elegantly with the PMC, the patches
can be placed adjacent to one another making for less shifting of weight 
and
possible teetering of loop person attempting to improvise (and hopefully
entertain).

holding
out for software version 2.x
PPS  I hope we're not all gonna be fighting soon--or dying--

Greetings--
Here's a new way to utilize the Echoplex as a live toool (I guess it's
something of an instrument)--
Gotta have a PMC-10 or something like it.
MIDI string A is record, MIDI string B is Mute--set it as momentary.
Press the pedal as you begin to record, then release at the end of the
recording.
This essentially "captures" your performance (like a firefly in a jar!)
So then have another switch that unmutes (I'm using quantize pretty much 
all
the time--I don't change my defaults unless Grandma comes by)
And when it's time to solo, hit that one.
