Re: does anyone really use Softstep?

[mark francombe <mark@markfrancombe.com>]

Does anyone know what might happen if you removed the footpedal out of
the system entirely, and instead had your girlfriend and/or wife stand
close to your rack, fingers poised over buttons (or for software
users, fingers poised over key mappings).
A simple arrangement of nods and winks could be agreed upon in
advance. Left wink for overdub, right wink for insert, double blink
for half speed, and long blink for mute?

There would be some latency of course,  dependent on lighting
conditions on stage, and possibly brain power of woman... The softstep
does have all those nice lights of course, but possibly, this this
might be compensated for, dependent on the hot-ness of the girl, . Im
suspecting that the hotter the woman, the less brain power, therefore
more latency, but anyway.. its a thought... might need some beta
testing...

PS, can people please remember to edit their posts, don't just hit
reply... Its a big waste of space (Unlike this "on-topic" and
incite-full post) This is annoying for those on he list who use the
digest... (just Rick I think ha ha)
