are you left handed?
my left foot is even clumsier than my right foot.
i learned classical guitar technique from Charles Postlewaite, who
had invented a 5 fingered right hand technique (using the pinky).
to make my pinky stronger and more accurate, he had me use it to do
things i would normally do during the day with my index finger.
maybe i should try to do things left-footed more for the same reason...
let's see- dial a phone? - push buttons? hmmmm
do you ever play several instruments?
i am trying to figure out how to setup my rig and have
wondered how others deal with the problem of
switching instruments, stations, etc. while playing seated.
i was thinking of getting a stool or maybe a tall drum throne.
i am using a wheeled computer chair now, but it is not very stable,
not very portable, and not really tall enough.
the wheels allow me to roll it, but it also rolls when i don't want it to.

no need for pardons.
you have your view and i have mine.
that's ok. it's up to the reader to decide if the info is good for them.
i still consider myself a newbie at the live looping thing.
in fact, i have yet to perform for an audience as a "looper"
