I'm not sure what you mean, the rc-20 is called the "loop station" by boss.... >What about the SP-303 ? that is a sampler, not a looper.

You can't record a loop on the sp-303 and have it start looping in realtime, and you can't overdub new material onto a loop when it is playing. That's why it is not a looper at all, and if you want looping this box is useless for you. On the other hand, if you want a sampler/sequencer, it may be what you want. >If I'm not mistaken, it can be midi controlled : does this mean it >can be triggered solely from a midi controller pedal ? I don't know many specific details about the sp-303 since I mostly pay attention to loopers. If it can be controlled by midi you should be able to control it from a midi pedal. You would need a good pedal though, not a bad one that only sends program change like many of them out there. >If so is there any >drawback to using such a unit instead of a headrush/rc-20 type unit ??? if you want a looper, check the info on loopers at: http://www.loopers-delight.com/tools/tools.html >I wanna get into looping, and this thing seems to go far beyond that ( >with >drumbeeats and such.) It doesn't go beyond it. It doesn't do looping at all! kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
