Re: RC-50 and Speed Control

["Krispen Hartung" <khartung@cableone.net>]

Maybe the hardware version of FlyLoops will be the answer to our 
needs....that is, if Aaron implements most of the software features in the 
hardware unit.

My dream is a stereo EDP/Looperlative/Repeater like unit, inside a 
USB/Computer programmable floor unit the size of the EDP foot controller, 
complete with multiple TRS expression pedal jacks for controlling volume, 
pitch, fades, etc, and a USB connectors for hooking up more MIDI 
controllers 
to access more features.  I'd pay $2000 + for that unit if it popped up on 
the market.

Hi Kris,
That's the sort of looper I'm looking for too but add variable feedback 
control. I don't think any hardware device meet your specs: Boomerang, 
Repeater, Timefactor, EH 2880, RC-50 etc. Most manufacturers build delay's 
or (phrase) samplers, but nothing with best of both worlds in the price 
range of max $500.

RC-50:
- stereo: yes, audio quality is excellent
- reverse: yes
- variable speed and pitch: no => it has tempo sync option but it sounds 
horrible imo
- loops: 3, running in sync or independent
- feedback control: sort of => no delay type of variable feedback control 
using an expression pedal. Workaround: send sub-outputs to auxility in 
(stereo), level decreases with each loop depending on the aux-in level
