What is the advantage?  It doesn't fade away?  I'm sure an obvious
disadvantage is that you can't overdub on top of an already existing loop.

    Would I be better going with a looper or a delay with a hold function?
I was considering getting the DL4, but if I can do all that Tim does with a
little Boss pedal, now I'm reconsidering.
