Sans, Gentry and Philby, thanks! y'all ..... oops my southerness just showed!

Philby if I could make money doing my music I would. I will just keep doing what I do and be artistically satisfied. It IS worth more than money to me. I only wish I could throw about 40 hours a week at it instead of 4 - 8. fretwork, I am always wide open to the critiques. I should put that in my opener every time. And you are exactly right. the snare does sing during the initial bass track and therefor through the song . I don't flip the lock on the snare because it is one more decision to make during my loop. Each looped song has an average of 60 decisions so I try to limit anything that isn't critical. I'll probably dwell on it now and try to add it to the list of decisions.

Thanks a lot!

Actually for real thanks. I'm always trying to grow. I am the ever evolving neanderpaul after all!
