Subject: Re: RC-50 Users Must Be
Busy
continuing my thoughts on the rc50, i
have continued to find it a nice unit. i've used it in ways i had not
anticipated, ie., single mode loops from section A to section B, which i had
not done before. mostly using that for compositional stuff, hearing how
sections would sound back to back. i also confess that i have used the
rhythm tracks to do some writing. initially i thought there was no way
i'd mess with those, but i burried my attitude and had some fun with it.
for me, whether i keep the unit or return it hinges on that damn
"glitch" as paul calls it at the end of the record and the begining
of the playback. it bothers me that much. i'm really not sure what
to do about it. playing through it just seems like a lame way to get
around it. the fact of the matter is it shouldn't be there. if
anyone else has experienced this and truly
has found a consistent way around it, i'd be all ears. maybe i do quieter
loops than others, as when i try to loop more subtle chord progressions or
motifs with any space in there, it really is jarring.......again, only for the
first time around, but still, that's just ridiculous. maybe i should try
another one somewhere and see if maybe mine is particularly bad.
so in closing, still having fun, but still frustrated as well,
john
