I love release speculation threads. They're some of the best free entertainment a working class programmer can get.
Here's what happens in most shops. A marketing guy walks into the programmer area (usually after a three martini lunch)...
Marketing: "Hey, guys! I have this great idea for a feature everyone would love. How long do you think it will take?"
Programmers: "Dunno. We've never done it before."
Marketing: "Sure, I understand, but how long will it take?"
Programmers: "Well, first you'd have to give us detailed requirements of what you want, then we have to do the design work, and after that we have to figure out how to implement that design in the code. Once that's done, we have to do the testing until we've fixed all the problems. So as you can see, there's really no way to give you an accurate answer until we're neck deep in it."
Marketing: (now becoming impatient) "You guys are just being evasive. For the xyz feature I'm talking about, it really shouldn't take that long. I mean, we're talking weeks, not months."
Programmers: "Have you ever written code?"
Marketing: "No, but geez, guys, it's just not that complicated!"
Programmers: "Nonetheless, we can't take the cocktail napkin you've just handed us and tell you how long it will take."
Marketing: "Well, I was just at a trade show, and I told them we should be able to have this out in a matter of months. So hey, guys - how long will this take?"
There's not nearly as much fiction in that scenario as you might think.
This is how the world works.

Thank you! That’s helpful. And appreciate the welcome. Kemper arrived 6 days ago. Haven’t gotten much done since!

I have an expression pedal set to morph the mix parameter of a stereo loop. I'm in performance mode, and the stereo loop is 'locked' across each rig in the performance.
Problem - when switching rigs in the performance, even when the expression pedal is at toe position, it reverts to 0 mix. I have to rock the expression pedal back a bit to get it to reset the value.
How do I set it up so that it picks up the 'current' position of the expression pedal when I switch rigs, so that if it's at toe on one rig, when I switch to another rig, it stays at 100% mix?
Thanks in advance!
Ryan
