List</FONT></B></P></CENTER>

<P><BR>
<B>What is Looper's Delight?</B></P>

<P>Looper's Delight is a cultural and informational resource for musicians
creating with audio loops of every sort. Loop based music essentially 
involves
the repetition of audio samples, or loops. From that basic premise looping
moves off in numerous directions, encompassing a wide range of techniques
for building, manipulating, and using loops. The technique crosses many
musical boundaries and appears in a wide range of musical styles and 
genres.</P>

<P><BR>
<BR>
<B>What is the Looper's Delight Mailing list? What types of things are
discussed on it? </B></P>

<P>Loopers Delight is a forum for discussing loops and loop based music.
For posting, make sure you send to Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com</P>

<P>There isn't much that is considered off-topic. Past, present and future
topics include looping devices and setups (Oberheim Echoplex, Lexicon Jam
Man and Vortex, Boomerang, samplers, MIDI, effects, mixers, speakers, etc).
We've also had threads about improvisation, creativity, books, recordings,
computers, Torn, Fripp, Eno , DJs, ambient, industrial, minimalist music,
Indian Classical music, sequencing, looping theory and philosophy. </P>

<P><BR>
<BR>
<B>Are there archives of past list postings?</B></P>

<P>Definitely check out the archives at <A 
HREF="http://www.annihilist.com/loop/archive/archive.html">http://www.annihilist.com/loop/archive/archive.html</A></P>

<P><BR>
<BR>
<B>Is there a Digest form of LD? How do I receive it?</B></P>

<P>Yes, there is a digest. To subscribe, send mail with the word 
&quot;subscribe&quot;
in both the subject and body, and no sig files or anything else, to:</P>

<P><A HREF="mailto: 
Loopers-Delight-d-request@annihilist.com">Loopers-Delight-d-request@annihilist.com</A></P>

<P>You would then want to unsubscribe from the normal list, so send 
&quot;unsubscribe&quot;
to:</P>

<P><A HREF="mailto: 
Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com">Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com</A></P>

<P>For posting, make sure you send to the normal 
Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com
address, or nobody will see it. Personally, I hate digest lists. I never
get around to reading them because they arrive in one big, imposing lump.
Replying to posts always seems to be a pain, and it's too slow to maintain
a decent conversation, so I never do. I guess this happens to others as
well, because the folks on the digest almost never participate. I suggest
using email filters instead. Subscribe to the digest only if you have a
good technical reason to do so.</P>

<B>I'm sorry, I need to unsubscribe from Looper's Delight. How do I do
that? It's not that I dislike people there or anything, you 
understand.</B></P>

<P>To unsubscribe, send mail with the word &quot;unsubscribe&quot; in both
the subject and body, and no sig files or anything else, to:</P>

<P><A HREF="mailto: 
Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com">Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com</A></P>

<B>I'm having trouble subscribing/unsubscribing to the list. What's 
wrong?</B></P>

<P>Usually people have trouble because they try to have a conversation
with me or someone while subscribing. Don't do that. The subscription 
process
is automated, and the mailing list server is very stupid. Idle conversation
totally confuses it. It also will totally fail to understand the witty
quote in your signature file. So turn those sig files off!</P>

<P>If you say anything other than &quot;subscribe&quot; it makes a confused
whimpering sound and then replies to you with a help file. You may want
to consider reading the help file before resending the exact same subscribe
mail 30 times. (you'd be surprised!)</P>

<P>other common problems:</P>

<P>- Don't use the quotes on &quot;subscribe.&quot; It's just subscribe</P>

<P>- Subscribe is spelled <B>S - U - B - S - C - R - I - B - E. </B></P>

<P>If you still have a problem, send me mail at: <A
