Kelly Thanks for giving us a heads up on the new and improved 'Rang. Just wondering if there is going to be feedback control and midi clock sync capabilities with this new 2/3 rds sized looping box from the Boomerang folks. It is becoming more interesting as you write about it. I am sorry if I missed that somewhere in the exchange. Any other details you could provide would be appreciated. And price? What is the current price on Boomerangs? Just for point of reference.
