Fwd: new boomerang




Begin forwarded message:
>>  Currently it looks like we are on schedule to delivery the 
>> Chorus/Delay pedal in early to mid April and the  Rang(TM) III looper 
>> in mid May. Here's a blurb describing what's up in Boomerang land.
>>
>>   We will be releasing a new looper, the Rang(TM) III, AND a stereo
>> chorus/delay pedal in the spring of 2007.
>>   The effects pedal has 11 presets and an expression pedal jack for
>> real time control of parameters.
>>   The looper will have true stereo recording, vastly improved audio
>> specs, long record time, 6 loops, multi level undo/redo, multiple 
>> loops
>> can play synched or unsynched, and a slew of "utility" features such 
>> as
>> auto fade out, metronome, etc.
>>   We will insure that the pedal is easy to operate and as intuitive as
>> the current one, but it will be deeper if you want to explore the new
>> functions.
>>   It will be about half the size of the Rang(TM) Plus which lists for
>> $599. Right now it looks like the list price will be about $539. There
>> will be no MIDI or USB connectivity, and no permanent storage of 
>> loops.
>>
>> Boomerang(R) Chorus-Delay Pedal
>>   This is the first in a family of great sounding effect pedals from
>> BMP. Each pedal will have 2 different effects, be true stereo and 
>> have a
>> hard wired bypass. There are 11 preset locations for storing your own
>> sounds.
>>   Connect an expression pedal and you can control overall effect(s)
>> level or morph between two different sounds.
>>   The delay effect will have a tap tempo foot button and three
>> different modes including tape delay simulation and reverse delay.
>>   All the pedals in this family will be linkable to form a complete
>> effects system. Press store or recall on any one pedal and all linked
>> pedals will respond.
>>
>> Boomerang(R) III Looper
>>   This little power house records in true stereo (or mono), has 17.5
>> minutes of recording time in mono and 6 independent loops that can be
>> played sequentially (verse/chorus/bridge use) or simultaneously. In 
>> the
>> latter mode the loops may be synched or played totally independent 
>> from
>> each other.
>>   After the primary loop is recorded, there are 3 additional "layers"
>> that can be recorded. The layers can be silenced, played or 
>> re-recorded.
>> Additional material may be stacked on (added to) any of the layers.
>>   The user can assign a number of interesting and useful functions to
>> a utility button. We anticipate having the following functions, and
>> possibly more: reverse playback, reverse lead live, auto fade out,
>> metronome, loop quantize, octave down effect (for bass line creation),
>> loop extend and layer merging (merge all layers to one to free up 
>> memory).
>>   There will be selectable sample rates, a variety of signal routing
>> options and a pedal linking system so multiple units can be synched.
