I have a Rat and a Vox ToneLab board (it's smarter than me)
I can relate.
I've got an eight channel Tascam board (still new after seven years) that nobody has ever been able to make work right.
Even those brave souls that read the manual.
Manual? I don't need no steeeeenkin' manual!
Oh yeah...I do. But last I saw it was a couple of years ago. Probably should download a .pdf, but more than likely I still wouldn't read it.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
