Just picked up a Boomerang recently. Very cool little unit. One of it's coolest features (IMO) is the half-speed playback. I use it w/ a 5 string electric violin, and the effect sounds very cool and smooth when transposing it down into cello or double bass range. :) Other nice things: Backwards solo mode (kind of an immediate backwards slapback) and backwards record mode (constantly records and plays things backwards). Things that are missing that would be nice: Undo mode, feedback & switch to half speed mode w/o stopping playback. All in all, a well designed, good sounding performance oriented unit. Before someone goes ballistic on my ass about how the EDP is a far superior unit ;), it's on it's way (hopefully soon). I will post a side by side comparison when it arrives. It's obvious that the EDP has more features, but the Boomerang definitely provides some unique and interesting features that the EDP does not currently have (although I wish it did. Kim? ;) ).
