Rather than carry on in the previous thread (which was starting to look somewhat hijacked), I thought I'd start a new one!.
I mentioned this guy who had a Fostex VF160EX (see https://www.fostexinternational.com/docs/products/vf160ex.shtml), and couldn't work it.
So I took my 15 year old daughter Melissa to him, as she's doing an OCN Sound Engineering Course (plus she's the button pressing and knob twiddling age!).
She's never seen one of these before, but it didn't take her many minutes (without consulting the instruction book) to get it pretty well sorted. Pretty impressive watching one hand twiddling a jog shuttle control, and the other pressing buttons and moving sliders - all faster than you can see! - don't you hate flash little kids? :lol:
If that wasn't impressive enough?, she also had a play on his £20,000 grand piano, and impressed him further - particularly as she played without music - it seems commonplace among pianists that they can't play without the music in front of them?.
We're now taking bets on how long it is until he wants her again for further instruction? - I seriously doubt his ability to work it :lol:
I can also see Melissa wanting something similar?, which if she's going to use it, I wouldn't mind buying for her.
