Looper help

[Ctrl4Smilerz]

I have the RC-10R which I like but have a few gripes with. 1) I wish the I could have the loops fade out. 2) I wish I could more easily do parallel looping. 3) I wish I could more easily clear a track without having it playback. I have been thinking about the Boomerang, and the Infinity 3 on and off.

I've got the BeatBuddy and would like to pair it with the same company Singular Sound's looper, whatever it's called. Oh yeah...

That or pick up a used Pigtronix Looper. It used to be the shizzle, IMO, 'til the Aeros was released

The Boomerang was best overall for my needs wants, but the size is big (not a problem anymore for me) and it's still lacking any sort of memory storage or loop-loading capability (again, not a problem for me) — size and no loops stored may be a turn off for many. Here's the Boomerang with accessories the Sidecar and Wholly Roller:

I had a Zoom BNX1 or whatever that had a looper in it, but I just don't get along with pedals that have sub-menus, just can't be bothered; so here's what I eventually finally got used (recently) for the test bench:

Of course, that last bit about my new-to-me Ammoon doesn't help you at all, but maybe the first 3 suggestions have merit.

I just switched to the beat buddy with their Aeros looper, have just gotten it all together, I had the ditto plus and the trio, problem with the trio is you never knew what you were going to get out of it

There was an Aeros on sale at the Tom Lee Music in HK where I got my Variphase for CHEEP-CHEAP, but I didn't get the Aeros 'cause — it wasn't that great of a discount— I'm cheap frugal and hope to find a better deal here in N.America.

Now they've got a new LTD ED GOLD version

I'd rather have the upgraded version w/o the bullion buttons, but... can't really afford/justify any version of Aeros until I start using my little mini-looper in earnest.

Just my luck they have an upgraded model a week after I ordered mine

But what is it?

No worries, you can upgrade your unit's firmware

But what is it?

Makes repetitive bleep bloop robot noises.

Well, I suppose it could be used for other repetitions of note sequences, but I would just make repetitive bleep bloop robot noises with it.

This thread set off GAS a long time ago and I finally relieved myself. Got a Trio+ and really happy with it.

The bass and drum sounds can be a little cheesy at times, but it’s a great creative tool. Can’t believe there’s not really anything else on the market like it anymore.

Glad you found some relief! I have been doing tests with it running the bass and drums to my interface that way its only the guitar going through the amp and that has been pretty great. It has been a head scratcher for a minute, this is by far the most complex pedal i have ever used.

I agree. It’s great fun. I got the footswitch as well but it’s too complicated for now. I’m happy with a 13 bar blues..

Hahahhah 13 bar blues! My first looper pedal got return because I couldn’t get it to work right……

It didn’t understand what time signature I was in and neither did I.

Does anyone around these parts have any experience with looper pedals? I am currently monkeying around with a tc ditto and it is nice for what it is but I am looking to get one of the more filled out loopers. I would really like something to have a drum beat type thing and maybe even record the loops.

I am eyeing the Boss RC-10r but have never dived into the crazy world of loopers.

Any recommendations or ideas or think its a bad idea?!?

I have been working on bass pedal demos and it just isn’t the same without a drummer, I need that backbeat baby.

I'm really happy with my EHX 1440. I use stereo out with an A/B switch in and two amps.
