phrase ever so slowly each time the overdub function is activated. thats
not
looping...thats just a long delay that eventually fades. I dont wanna
believe
my own eyes. also, have not had a chance to hear a dl4 yet. And what is
the

The max looping time is 14 seconds, with or without dubs - the max delay
time
on the rest of the delay models is 2.5 seconds. The thing defintely
'loops'
by anyone's definition of the word, i.e., anytime you want you can close
the
loop and wail over it without adding onto it, layer another part, then
close
it again. It actually takes quite a while for the repeats to fade out on
their own (and that's only when the overdubbing function is 'open')

a
line 6 unit or can ya use any old expression pedal u may have around your

I have a Boss EV-5 that works just fine with it
The modulation pedal is not out yet - West L.A. Music (where I got mine
for
$229) said they are expected in Dec. 12. The distortion modeler will be
out
"sometime in February".
