I've had my ULTRA for 18 months now and I must admit, I'm something of a preset slut. Anyway, the more I read about the ULTRA, (I also have the X) the more I'm convinced this thing can be anything you want it to be. I'm convinced it's one of the most flexible tools for making sound available. The downside is of course that you have to be able or willing to program the thing. I've been playing with cords for about a month now, and I still dont quite have the hang of getting what I want but I'm getting there. This forum's been pretty fantastic for ideas and howtos. Being a novice I dont have much advice to offer for programming except for persistence is the only way. I did want to express my thanks to the contributors though, its making the learning curve alot less steep.
so
Thanks
