Well, from one Lindsay to another: You're going to stay broke unless you change your demands on looping technology. There is no single device that has six tracks of looping. The Repeater has four, but only one input (stereo) and costs $500. The Echoplex has only one track and costs appreciably more (but has some serious features--check the archives). You could get six Line6 DL4s, and that would satisfy just about everything--including the optional decay if you left one of them in overdub for a while--but that would be $1494. My suggestion: start very slowly. Obviously, you're making music right now and looping is (as you will discover if you continue with this list) a broad, varied and deep enterprise. You'll be learning all the time. Frankly, I wouldn't know what to do with six tracks. I barely use the four I've got. Not an answer you want to hear, for sure, but perhaps a wise one--certainly for your checkbook!

So...I've had dreams of looping in a live performance. Only I ddin't know what it was called or where I could find the technology (though I assumed it existed somewhere.) Then I saw Keller Williams and realized my dreams could easily become reality, found this website, etc. My point...how do I start? I'm broke and need to know which piece of equipment will most benefit me for my buck. I need at least three different inputs, one for a microphone, one for keys and guitar. I need to beable to have atleast 6 different tracks playing at a time, and need optional decay. Sorry if I am using innappropriate terms; I'm just discovering the world of looping. Thank you sooo much for any input! I'm psyched to dive in and get started! Thanks! Lindsay : )
