Dave, I fully agree with you about some kind of bad feeling that resulted from you offering a new possibility; your idea was a good open-minded one and should have been received as such instead of being flagged as an attempt to break the "monopolistic" views of LD some people here seem to have. LD has brought me LOTS of unvaluable information, specially about using my EDP, as well as about other guys around the world making the same type of music I love, and just for that, it should be there. This does not prevent me from wishing there were others sources; I usually like to have more than only one view on things, and when it feels like I am told "don't look around, this is good for you" ... that feels ... strange ! Only from the EDP AND other gear tech info point of view, and for the other people playing loops music, LD is an absolutely must, but I don't think it should be the one and ONLY exclusive source for this type of info. Is there something making some people feel so "protectivist" about "their" LD and what ? (and I do notice Kim has not shown any sign of being offended by Dave's offer). I agree with you Dave, this topic should end, specially because it feels like on this list some topics which should just be taken for what they are bizarrely become endless sources of posts, in the long run polluting the exchange space (remember that blackface thing ?? oooups ! sorry I said it again !) Also, you should not feel discouraged or rejected (ho ho ... another one ?? too bad isn't it ? what is going wrong at LD that members are prevented from exchanging positive ideas ?), you were in the positive path and negative replies such as "don't do that" should not even have been posted by their author. I think we should rather focus on building our community instead of making our members feel rejected because they are not part of what we think they should, or what we think we own ? Again, what about music lately ? (have not read yet any Loopstock feedback post but I got one this morning and will read it just after that).

I didn't. The group was already there. Why would you care if there was another group for the discussion of the Echoplex in addition to this group? There happens to be a Yahoo Group for the Electrix Repeater that seems to be doing pretty well ( http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/repeater-users/ ). Loopers-Delight isn't a cult (though, lately I've begun to wonder). People are free to create join whatever other mailing lists they choose to. Let's just end this topic. I'm sorry I bothered. - Dave
