Re: LG Victory Dance, and A Question

Thanks Andy, took your advice and let it alone. :)

Instead, I spent the remaining wee hours cobbling together and assigning a 
'patch group' such that I can now walk through a dozen EDP preset setups 
(quant 4, 8, 16, q off, sus rec, sus replace, sus od, etc) with a single 
switch... 

Think I've got the hang of this thing now - it's pretty deep !

Phil :)
