Re: loop pedal and acustic guitar (mini DL-4 review)

[Martin Shellard <martins@pwdu.demon.co.uk>]

I just got a line 6 DL-4 and for the money it's great, way, way better 
thean
the Headrush (which I also have).
The Akai does 22 secs (I think) but without o/dubbing. If you want to o/dub
you're limited to 11 secs. The UI is clunky.
The DL-4 does 14 secs full bandwidth but if you record at 1/2 speed you get
28 secs and you can still overdub.
I also like the fact that you can record at 1/2 speed and backwards and
combine forwards and backwards stuff.
You also have a 800ms delay in front of the loop so you can delay stuff on
the way in which when you reverse sounds great. You can attach a pedal to
control the delay (not loop) functions for extra sonic mangling into the
loop.
For the money this is a great deal for the looper alone and the delays are
cool too.
