Hey Paul,

You should really check out the Zoom GFX8 if you like the Boss GT-3 and 5. 
 
It costs less and it also sounds really good.  I think it has a 25 second 
phrase sampler which qualify it as a looper.  I tried one out at the 
Zzounds 
store in Chicago for about a half hour.  It has amp modeling and nice 
distortions/overdrives.  It has more effects types than the Boss units:  
69>32.  Also like the Boss'es it is in a steel box and is rugged yet it 
has 
plenty of knobs for setting up sounds (more than the Boss units).  It has 
a 
mono in, mono effects send and return, an auxilary stereo pair in and 
stereo 
outputs.  It also comes with software to program it even more from a Mac 
or 
PC.  If you like the sound, it certainly beats the Boss units for 
functionality and control features.

I am thinking of getting one to use instead of my racks for its 
portability 
when I play out.  I play Electric 6 string violin as well as playing a 
little guitar and bass.

Check it out before you decide:
