Re: Can the new BOSS SP303 be used as a looper?


just checked out the Roland page
(http://www.rolandus.com/response.asp?id=r1_4_2_12) .. looks like it's a
refined version of the SP-202, which is a good affordable sampler, but not
really a looper. With the 202, you can't record a loop while another is
playing, and all functions have to be activated via the keypad (there is no
MIDI in for connecting a foot controler). The latter can be okay if you
play keyboards, but not guitar/bass. It was designed for use by DJs instead
of one turntable in a standard two turntable setup. Good for taking a
sample off the turntable, and then you can loop that while you change the
vinyl.
Yet to see detailed specs for the SP-303, but it's likely to be aimed at
this market, rather than loopers.
