Re: Repeater-- Speculation and disinformation

 From watching TalkBass, and listening to (young) musicians I know,  
they love the Digitech and Boss like crazy. Much more than any of the  
serious loopers -- even the DL4. What they want to do, by and large,  
is jam over their changes, and these pedals do that just fine. If you  
can save your changes, so much the better. I think that these boxes  
aren't made for _us_; we represent probably, just a guess here, .01%  
of the market.
