Re:Re: new loop pedal( =RiffBox)



"This is the Spinal Tap looper."

Maybe, but it *is* expensive (hee hee!)... if I had $400 burning a hole in 
my pocket (yeah, right!), I'd rather get the Manecolooper or a Boomerang.

I think it's much worse than that.
Presumably you can only do rhythms which are predominantly on the beat.
(and any clave rhythm would be out of the question).

It also seems that you either have to set the "number of notes (called 
"events") in advance,
or alternatively you have to play on the first beat of playback.

Surely guitarists will buy this because it says "easy" a lot in the 
publicity and then be totally baffled by it.

This is the Spinal Tap looper.
