Re: Looking for Looper



I've been trying to decide the same thing. Some things I've learned:

Price.
It looks like you could spend up to $1200 or more depending on how crazy
you want to get. Pick a budget,..then try and see whats in your range.

Features.
What do you need it to do? Effects? Just loop? Midi? Rack Mounted? Once you
decide on the needs it will be easier to decide.

Read.
I've been reading (and listening) like crazy for the last 3 weeks or so and
it's helped me enormously. Look at availability. Features. Feedback.
Support. Durability. All factors when spending your hard earned money. 

For me,..Its going to be between the Boomerang and the new DL4. My needs
are for something relatively inexpensive (comparatively speaking) and
mainly to loop acoustic guitar for live applications. The all in one units
seem to be easier to use than say the Echoplex or JamMan. And I don't need
it to do any more than loop somewhat long patches and have the capability
to layer on top of it. 

Hope this helps,

-Joe
