I think (and we could do this to death) that unless you're _really_ going
to get into looping (and get an EDP), the JM was just too expensive at its
original price.  Sound quality apart, most people don't want a helluvalot
more functionality than the Zoom 508. If it had more memory and a "fade"
function, I'd trade my JM for a 508!!!
