Re: Boomerang + Version 2.a3 phrase sampler NEW ****** $350.00 *******NEW NE...



I've discussed the boomerang on the list many times.  I have to disagree with your assessment of it.  I've used it live dozens and dozens of times over the last three years (including on tour).  I've also got an EDP, but I prefer the boomerang for live situations.  It's dead simple to use and control, it doesn't sound lo-fi to me when used with my bass or cello.  It's a nifty box!  For a looping guitarist or bassist, I think it's the best box for the job.  I'm still using the v1.0 software though, I haven't had a chance to upgrade it because I don't want to be without it!

"Best looper available easy to use"???

I want to go ahead and open a new can of worms...
I first owned a boomerang, i cant believe that i wanted so bad to get into looping that after two years of getting rid of my boomerang i just dove in and got a pair of EDPs... You would think the boomerang would have completely killed such a thirst in the first place... I feel that the boomerang is an expensive toy and will keep loopers who purchase one at home with looping and never try displaying their talents... My dis-satisfaction came with it clipping exremely, it was all around noisy, and the biggest thing was that it could not be synced to other looping units and / or MIDI... now i would never have said a word until this claim was made: "Best looper available easy to use"??? I'm sure i will irritate several individuals with my attack on the boomerang, but this is the first e-group that i've ever participated in where i look forward to reading EVERY SINGLE post! And i was irritated with such a claim by someone selling a $400 toy -vs- the $2400 worth of gear in my ! rack that smokes the boomerang like a twig! please do not post such false claims to make a sale to unsuspecting looper candidates. the boomerang can be very cool to the right people but the sales pitch was a bunch of........

"Best looper available easy to use"???????????

Oh wait, i guess it is easy to use...

I invite the arguments by anyone, just please don't hate me forever, i tried expressing my opinions with out making false claims like a salesman... so to not be a total jerk, i rewrote the add and took out the BS, this price does sound like a great deal though:)
