Re: New Loopers

[paul <phaslem@wightman.ca>]

I was in the market for something new in the hardware looping dept. 
as well. I've ended up ordering the new Boomerang III. The version 2 
software is supposed to be out in June which promises more 
independent control over the tracks. I should be receiving the unit 
early in the week. It doesn't have any loop storage capability, but 
that's not a feature that I've ever looked for. For me part of the 
attraction to looping has always been that I'm creating all this 
texture and background live and on the fly as it were.

the boomerang specs can be found here:

Like others on the list, I was very interested in the new 
Looperlative, but after sending an email to them, couldn't get any 
answer to a possible release date, and I'm really more interested in 
something that has stereo capability.
