You can vote twice.  Let everyone know your main purpose in using the little unit.  ;)

Hey,
It was nice of you to set my questions up like this (as I intended, as I said in my original post with these questions).

Out of curiousity, how did you set up the polling structure?

I couldn't see it when I posted my message yesterday with these questions, and it would be helpful for me to know this for the future.

Thanks.

I need three votes!

It's all of these - it's so flexible!

AlchemyMN,
Can you enlighten me on the question I asked, above?

I think you have to go to the main page of the forum. For example, here's a link to the main page of the General Discussion forum (http://microrecorders.org/community/general-discussion/0/). There, you'll see a menu with the following items:

 MARK READ | NOTIFY | NEW TOPIC | POST NEW POLL

To create a poll, select the last item: POST NEW POLL.

Thanks for pitching in and answering the question 64, my DSL has been down all day...  :(

Doh! Thanks 64 Guitars and AlchemyM.

As many women who know me, and a myriad of bookstore assistants would say about me, I can't see anything when it's right in front of me.

Thanks once again

It's a pocket-sized recording studio for me. Love it to bits.  :)

Agreed. Now, if they would just make the rhythm section a fully programmable drum machine, a la the Zoom PS 04 (which is no longer manufactured), that would make it much better for me.

It's a fair point. The rhythm functionality is probably the most limited thing, and the one that took longest to get my head around / master. It's doing pretty much all I want for now, but I'm already getting a little restricted by the patterns that are actually usable for my type of music. Unfortunately, all the 'hard rock' and 'heavy patterns' are pretty much wasted on me. It just means I have to work a little harder with what I do have. But it's a minor issue compared with coming up with a killer song to record!

Oh, I find that killer songs just appear fully-formed in my head!  ;)
