Re: Looper cencus



I just got interested in looping because my BOSS DD-5 delay has a 2 second looper and is a big tease. But when I got interested in getting a looper that works longer, the info is very confusing on what to buy and can get expensive. I know alot of guitar players that are excellent and would definitely loop, but the marketing of the subject is all wrong.

I just bought the REPEATER knowing that it has been discontinued because of the good reviews and the fact I can run a fairly small FS300 stage pedal to operate the unit live.

I also bought it to lay down tracks so I can solo over and get better.

I know that it can do so much more, but I suppose I will learn through trial because I don't see a place where I can get alot of tips and tricks information.

Guitar Looping seems to be kept a big secret and that's why more guitarists arent into it.

If a company, say BOSS, came out with a small easy to use, reasonably priced (say $100-$150 range) stompbox looper that could give say 10-14 seconds of simple looping and went into the guitar magazines with well thought out ads proclaiming.. "SOMETHING NEW for all you guitarists out there" and maybe had some good sound files on there web site and a few tips to get going .. the whole looping thing could take off.

At least that's how I see it.
