Until someone answers, try a search of the BIAB forum. I'm assuming here that RB works as BIAB does. BIAB 2026 Win Audiophile. Software: Fender Studio One 8, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6, Song Master Pro, Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Fender Quantom HD8 & Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors.

Pat Marr Veteran Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 8,109 Winston-Salem, NC	here's a link to the most recent thread: http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/showflat.p...true#Post367637 about halfway down the page, Jazzaddict posted a link to a point of purchase for the pedal. I thought it was such a good price, I ordered one too... that was about ten days ago, and I expect it to be delivered today. Jaz seems to have it working to his satisfaction. I'll report on mine after I get it hooked up. If you search the forum for posts made in the past 2 years, you'll find lots of threads and lots of links to various pedals... even some ideas for making your own from an abandoned PC keyboard. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ey71h8ep047758h/AAC12jNM0Hz9Q8zsh5iDeqNHa?dl=0

I thought so too... but I can't tell if my spending is really because the deal is good, or because I'm on antidepressants to help me deal with my wife's terminal illness. I've noticed that antidepressants seem to remove people's financial inhibitions, and they tend to spend more freely when they're taking them. Hmm What's easy to see in others is not always so easy to see in oneself. Now I'm wondering. But I really do think its a good deal. Similar pedals mentioned in the past have all cost more. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ey71h8ep047758h/AAC12jNM0Hz9Q8zsh5iDeqNHa?dl=0

But on a lighter note, just think of your meds as a good excuse......maybe your want'in a nice pedal steel. I just bought a CHEAP Rogue lap steel but it is really cool to learn on. Not a bad instrument either. Fun to play. oops, really getting off the subject for this thread...sorry everybody. Todd

Apparently people have good luck with it, or it wouldn't keep getting positive reviews. But it's worth noting that the equivalent Delcom 3 button USB pedal is almost $100 while the one JazAddict got cost less than $30. They both come with CDs to let the user define how the pedals work. Having said that: it's day 12 and mine hasn't arrived yet.

My intent is to stop as soon as is practical. Before taking them I was dead in the water... muddy thinking, apathy, and no ability to solve the smallest problem. I knew I was in trouble when I noticed my shoe was untied, and the first thought that entered my mind was "Oh no.. what will I do now?" (and it wasn't facetious... I was totally sincere) My doctor is an excellent diagnostician. He prescribed something non addictive, relatively easy to stop, with minimal side effects. Since taking it, I feel normal... not jazzed or doped up. Just normal. The only weird thing I've noticed is a more relaxed attitude about spending money. But I've always been so cheap, the new attitude is probably closer to normal than my old attitude. Once this is behind me, though, I'm hoping to slowly reduce the dose until I'm off it. That and a lot of other things will change. Thanks for pointing out what you said. Its well documented that antidepressents can remove the inhibitions that keep people from killing themselves... but I'm not really taking them for depression. I'm taking them for mental confusion caused by stress. So far so good. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ey71h8ep047758h/AAC12jNM0Hz9Q8zsh5iDeqNHa?dl=0

Music has been a big part of my life since I was 6 when I taught myself to play guitar. Then in high school when my direction in life was toward the ditch, my love of music steered my in a better direction. I went a period of years when I was broke and could't afford to have a guitar. After I divorced and remarried, one of the first things that my lovely wife did was insist I start playing again. Haven't put it down for more than a couple of days since. Just wish my dang work didn't get in the way so much! Todd
