the repeater made by electrix actually has 4 independent tracks to loop on (unfortunately, they all share the same loop - meaning that once a timed loop is set, it is set...but you have the freedom to have 4 separate tracks to mess with on that loop)...it goes for just under double the price of the rc-20 and from the comments on this list, you'll see that most people look at the boss as a nice introductory looper. but when you are spending over two hundred dollars on a piece of equipment, the question to ask yourself is do you really want to spend that kind of cash for something that will most likely not fit your needs or that you'll grow out of quickly? the rc-20 is fun (i owned one myself for about a month), but it just doesn't provide the kind of control that most people who are looking to use a looping device in a practical situation really need. if you search the archives of this list, within the past week or two, there were a slew of reviews on the rc-20 which discuss its advantages and its many shortcomings in the spectrum of this kind of gear. the looper's delight page has a link to search the archives... good luck, but remember, for the most part, you get what you pay for...and i believe that the rc-20 is the most 'affordable' looper out there...so draw your own conclusions (that statement was made anticipating the amount of bashing that can go along with a generalization like that - but please spare the list and myself the arguing - we've had enough of it lately). spool, e va n --- "Jon ......" <hixhix@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > I am new to this board. > > My question: > > I am looking into playing live via a loop effect > using a 4 track mixer > running guitar, bass, electronic drums, and vocals, > all running through the > loop effect. > > I am researching which loop effect would be best for > this.
