Re: digitech x-delay

[aandreas@gmx.ch]

thanks for the tips. yeps, running it before the rc2 was the plan.
however, an unexpected plan-shift occured last night, triggered by the 
fact that i suddenly got the pcmcia port on my old laptop working again..
the idea was to have a computer-free simple looper solution in front of my 
amp in the other room (i dont fear the computers but as a programmer i 
already spend too much time with them...) but that was put on hold now:)
anyway, i have a (in/out latency=6ms) guitar-truh-audiomulch 
in-front-of-amp setup working now that kept me awake till early in the 
morning. currently controlling it with midi knobs/buttons, but i guess ill 
invest the money planned for the rc2 into a behringer fcb1010 now...:)
so heres the next question:
the fcb1010 does have lights on each pedal, right?
so i assume i can set them up as on/off switches, ie switching between cc 
0 and cc128 , with the current status reported via the lights. right? (as 
opposed to 'momentary' buttons that only send when stomped upon)
i want to set this up so that i dont have to look at the screen...
thanks again
