I thought I did that already, about 10 years ago! It would be nice if people used the site for discussing looping rather than say, acoustic guitar amps. :-) (or whatever the latest non-looping thread is) >Still, it was very confusing to me because it didn't have connection to >musicality. It has always felt like a manual written for techies, and I >just have never been much of a techie myself. Are you talking about the old manual or the new one? I almost completely rewrote it for the EDP plus, and tried to reorganize it. It seems to me the volume of complaining about the manual went down after that. >In it's defense, Andy is correct...........it would have been several >times as large it is already 310 pages long! >but I still think a lot of beginning users don't get what this thing can >do until they see someone use it really well. Isn't this true of any instrument? When I've bought guitars they rarely came with more than 1 page of instructions. And those just explained how to set intonation or what each knob did. I learned how to play from teachers, practicing, studying, listening, watching, etc. There is a whole ecosystem for learning. It seems to me there is plenty of opportunity for talented loopers to teach lessons or write books or make instructional videos. Why not you?
