| Hi, Mark:   Yes, that does indeed work (MIDI for Loop Up & 
Down) and Digitech for Play. I'm thinking of spinning a pie plate on a stick in 
my mouth while I play guitar and 'tap dance'  as well. Hehehe...Too bad Ed 
Sullivan isn't still alive.   'gards, Butch

  AM Subject: Re: Ready to dump Repeater I've had success using a Behringer FCP1010 to send loop up and 
  down info, and then use the Digitech FS300 to cue up a play or record 
  function.  Seems to work fine, although a little clumsey.  I've not 
  tried to make the Behringer do it all yet.

 Man, I tell ya. The Repeater is a 
    nice unit. Except it's foot pedal controls (both with a three-button 
    Digitech and a MIDI controller) leave a lot to be desired. The EDP leaves it 
    in the dust in that department.
 I haven't been able to change loops without using my hands since 
    I got the thing. I'm on my second MIDI pedal. I thought my original somewhat 
    archaic Digitech PDS-type was not the best device to use and since sold it. 
    I purchased a Fender Cyber-Twin MIDI Foot Pedal with the intention of using 
    it for the CT as well as the Repeater. It's a real simple pedal to use. 
    Sends PC and can send CC.
 
 Most of the MIDI functions I tried worked BUT when a new loop is 
    selected (after being created), ex. LOOP UP, I can't get the darn thing to 
    PLAY. I opened a case with Electrix and they're helpful but it seems weird 
    that a simple function can't be made to work. I'm running 1.1, 
    BTW.
 
 This problem is 
    really starting to get on my nerves. As a guitar player, stopping to 
    manually initiate Loop Up or Loop Down ain't gonna cut 
    it.
 
 Electrix should have, 
    in the first place, took a lesson from Gibson and used more than a 3 switch 
    pedal. You got to be able to Loop Up or Down.
 
 Oh well, must have been the bad Martinis I drank 
    earlier.
 
 Regards, 
    Butch
