Are you taking about this board?

There are a few ways to do it. One is to use the Quote button up top to insert what you want. You can usually do up to three before the site complains,

Yes. Ok, I see how to quote multiple posts, but if quoting just one post, and you want to break it up into section and comment on each section, how do you do that? (Sorry if this isnt clear. Kinda hard to explain.)

A couple ways but the easiest is to hit the Quote button and paste the text
in the middle.

But when I hit "quote" the entire post is quoted in one piece, and typing/pasting text in the middle just looks like this. I guess I'm not understanding what you mean.

I love my TC Electronics Level Pilot. Works great, takes no space, looks awesome on the desk.

I actually went with this....

....a little more functionality for a few bucks more. Or is it that I just couldnt give up buttons completely. Haha.

The first time you check Mono compatibility by pressing a button on your desk, you'll wonder why you waited so long. I rarely use the Dim or Mute switches on mine.

I use a subwoofer so that's the other useful function on my MC3. There are subs with footswitches that let you disengage but I don't own one of those—a button on the controller eliminates the need. Also, the MC3 lets me adjust the level and polarity of the sub while seated at my listening position. No crawling on the floor made it worth every penny to me. Hmmm... I just realize I could have written it off as a medical expense if I hadn't done so already for business.
