Looping Pedal

Unread post by cberner27 » Tue Apr 11, 2006 11:21 pm

Hey everyone, I just wanted to know if anyone has any experience with "looping" pedals. I want something to use for looping my acoustic playing. Any input or advice would be great. As far as price ranges, Im looking to spend no more than 200 if possible. Thanks

Depends how many seconds of loop you want. I have a Line 6 DL4 and it has 28 which is plenty for me. It also has a ton of delay effects which are cool. If you want more looping time then go with a boss like praisedave has.

If you want something smaller, I have a Boss DD6 and it's great.

I just got the Boss RC-20, the only difference is it has less recording time than the RC-20xl, I think it's like 6 minutes of recording time. I got it on ebay for around $134 just recently, but I'm an addicted e-bayer so your going to have to shop around for a while to get that price.

I love the thing so far and it is an incredible practice tool and highly recommend getting one!

I've heard the Boomerang is amazing.

how about a looper under 250$??

I imagine that a looper could aide in writing lyrics.
