The key here is that a famous person has a lot of people's attention. > My question is: why does it take an add if people hear you and see what > you use? Good question. The person who came up to see what I was using for multi track looping said, "Oh, I heard about the Repeater and I'm thinking about getting one!" To which I said, "Don't think too hard, as they're already out of production." He knew about the EDP too, yet he owned neither. Maybe it's money? I couldn't afford an EDP for a long time. Another possibility is that looping sounds good and all, but I think what would REALLY bring people around is playing with one. I think units like the DL4 are probably doing a lot to bring people into this. Mark Sottilaro
