 Well, it only took about three weeks but it has finally arrived.  
Hurray! 
I spent all of 5 minutes with it so far and can see that there is a lot of 
potential. However, I'm STILL wondering if my money wouldn't have been better 
spent on the Boss Loop Station. 
The first hurdle that I need to overcome is where in my signal chain will I 
put this thing.  
I'm a multi keyboardist so this IS a poser.  
My initial impulse was to put it after my line mixer and before my amp. In 
theory that's a fine idea, except that it means that everything I do is 
potentially going to get recorded in my loop. Rather than "build" my 
performances from a loop upward, I want to make loops while I'm grooving. 
Therefore capturing everything is NOT a good idea.  
I could select a single keyboard and put the DD-20 between this board and 
my line mixer. But that seems really limiting.  
Ultimately, I may have to incorporate a submixer before the delay. Then I 
can mute channels that I don't want to record to the DD-20.  
That sounds like a lot of work and expense! 
What do you veterans have to offer in the form of advice? 
Thanks, 
Carl
