Re: Hardware Drum Looper Recommedations

[mark sottilaro <zerocrossing2001@yahoo.com>]

You've got a really limited choice my friend... when I
asked the same question I found my only real choice
was an E-MU Commandstation.  Here's the problem, while
it's an amazingly great Drum Machine/synth/sequencer,
it's out of production and only found used.  I love
mine and packed it full of ROM cards (Beat
Garden/World/Protozoa)

You also might want to explore the Roland Handsonic
route.  Not the same animal at all, but an equally
cool instrument.  I hear they make a cheaper one now
too.

Good luck,

Mark
