Matt and Matthias made it on! I guess its working well enough for a public announcement soon. There are a few weird little bugs that probably won't slow things down really, and I was hoping to re-write the generic text files that get sent to new subscribers first, but maybe there isn't any real need to wait. The texts I should be able to do tomorrow if the sysamin remembers to give me permissions for editing those. So are we ready? Where should we post about it? Places I can think of are the web page, door-x, the king crimson list, the digital guitar list, rec.music.*, alt.guitar, and boogie-talk. What others? kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | (currently content free!) http://www.annihilist.com/ | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html Date: Tue, 3 Sep 1996 13:38:05 -0300 To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com From: matthias@bahianet.com.br (Matthias) Subject: Re: What a big moment! >>I put "subscribe" in subject and body, as I always do... no problem! I just noted that when I made "reply" this mail was adressed to you personally, Kim, which I find confusing. It should go to the list, for my taste. And I am sure there is a way to change that on the server. > >Ok! Matt and Matthias made it on! I guess its working well enough for a >public announcement soon.

Maybe the DAW people are interested: soundhack@shoko.calarts.edu ddesign@lists.uoregon.edu deckusers-l@teleport.com and the (analog) synth amateurs: synth-diy@horus.sara.nl There must be lists for electronic music, minimal music, healing music... The web page of ECHOPLEX and other manufacturers, maybe. Lexicon has no page, as far as I know. Maybe the Boomerang? Well, maybe in those places, there should be just the web page adress? And a lot more...

I'll try to figure it out. >Did you like the idea to put "subscribe" in subject *and* body? >Otherwhise you would have to clearly define where. > Yeah, that covers the possibilities.

Then you can post it anywhere you like. The more loopers we find, the better!

It has fairly limited functionality, and the sound quality is not so great, since it samples at only 16khz. So you probably only get maybe 6khz bandwidth out of it. It has a half speed mode, which is sort of interesting, except then you wind up with an 8khz sample rate and probably only 3khz bandwidth. If all you want is a cheap footpedal to do simple guitar loops, its probably ok. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | (currently content free!) http://www.annihilist.com/ | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html Date: Fri, 6 Sep 1996 22:58:30 -0700 (PDT) To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com From: finley@ecst.csuchico.edu (Matthew F.

I was hoping the Boomerang would fill my "need" for a looping device with a multiple/divide function. Sounds like I should save my pennies....
