aha, that's the trick. Thanks a lot! This means Bidule is now
blinking all green for me. Feels good to know that you're not wasting
time when beginning to learn a new application. I can now feel
comfortable with the decision to keep MAX/Msp as my "audio plug-in
manufactory" until my available computing power makes it possible to
replace my pre-loop hardware with all laptop processing.

Nice! I too discovered the pc filter bidule yesterday late night when
reading the manual in bed on a laptop. This is great news to med
because it means I can keep my FCB1010 pedal with the same MIDI PC
bindings as I use with the hardware set-up (tc fireworX). And I can
take my time to replace the twenty fireworX sound patches with
software multi plug-in setups (eventually also new MAX patches)

I also put chains of effect plug-ins first then through Mobius and
then the Mobius master through a freeverb. I would like to wrap it up
with a stereo compressor (Sonalkis, for a more musical mix and to be
able balance the mix dynamically from the level of my live input in
relation to the Mobius stuff)) but I had to sacrifice that to save up
CPU cycles. Instead I still use my external hardware RNC (REally Nice
Comporessor) as the last unit before the PA.
I'm also having great fun with the SiR convolusion reverb VST plug-
in! (tip for you that don't know about SiR). I like to keep it in the
beginning, pre loop, and play though it as a performance effect. I
have bought amazing convulotion impulses from http://
spiritcanyonaudio.com. That's a cheap way to find unusual effect
sounds to play with.
