Members flip333 Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hello, I believe it would be cool to sample a guitar rhythm phrase and play a solo over the top. I have a drum machine that is ridiculous to program, so I would like to punch in my own layered percussions. Are there bad loopers to stay away from? Are there features that I don't want to miss out on? How about noise artifacts and tone quality? Reliability? Thanks! flip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SMeLLyMeL707 Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 I've had good experience with the boss rc-20xl. I def. would recommend it for practice purposes. Sound quality is good, but not great. you can also check out the boomerang (which is a little more expensive). good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hecticone Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 I use the rc-20xl no sound problems with it used thru the effects loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JC777 Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 Is this for practice or live? The Digitech Jamman is a great looper you can upgrade the memory to 2 GB and up to 99 presets. I've used it for practice and tooling around with friends. It would take a lot of practice to use live. But it could be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sleewell Posted August 28, 2008 Members Share Posted August 28, 2008 i have an old boss rc-20. its ok for practice and writing, but i would never use it live. sound quality is ok, nothing too special. its really easy to use and you can overdub till you are blue in the face. i am sure there are better, more expensive loopers for live gigs, but for home use it does the job for a pretty cheap price.

Members flip333 Posted August 29, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 29, 2008 I will spend money on a nice looper that is good for live. Thanks for your ideas... keep 'um coming please! flip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tumbleweeed Posted August 29, 2008 Members Share Posted August 29, 2008 Boomerang Phrase sampler. Easiest thing in the world to use. Stomp on and stomp off with massive delay, reverse, slow speeds and pitch shift at the tap of a button...etc etc,. I just turn on the drum machine and record it with a few bars of rhythm and then do leads until I want to plotz. Wouldnt be without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
