Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 Is there such a thing as a sound on sound looper? With multiple layers and overdubbing/multiple loops. Something with digital crispness and are there any of these that have REVERSE PLAYBACK? If so, any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members endo23 Posted June 2, 2006 Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 I have a BOOMERANG. Does all of the above, easily... very intuitive... New model to be released soon, with improved noise floor and sampling rate, as well as additional unspecified features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 Is the Keeley thing a joke? I think I'm going to check out the Boomarang. I've been doing research on and it seems like not a lot of people like the Line 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 Also, when does the new boomarang come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members endo23 Posted June 2, 2006 Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 Sorry, was definitely joking about Keeley... The Boomerang kills-- the only issue is that it's a bit noisy (not noticeable at gigging volumes), but they're going to be releasing an upgrade soon... Allegedly.

Members Mr. Poopsicle Posted June 2, 2006 Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 The DL-4 Does really nice SoS Looping IMO. Ed from Radiohead has done some incredible complex live looping with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome for playing out live, and doing loops on the fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 All I plan to use this for is a wall of sound effect in correlation with my delays and stereo reverbs in between amps. Is this an effective use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 I'm realizing that what I really need is overdubbing and feedback now and that the BossRC50 isn't going to do it. I am looking in the EH 2880 direction along with the DL4 and Looperlative now. Also the Manecoloopers. I'm looking for an "An expressive control" i guess.

Members endo23 Posted June 2, 2006 Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 If you're only going to use it for a wall of sound effect, relax and get a DL4. A Maneco will be total OVERKILL. Same with the Boomerang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 Yep, the more and more I read into it, it is looking like a choice between the 2880 and the DL4. Why is the maneco overkill? I listened to one of the demo's and really liked it. It was being used for industrial like music like NIN. It sounded pretty good.

Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 I am really sold on sound quality too. Which of these three would you recommend woul have the best output of sound. Do any of these hinder the sound level? I am also really into the fact that the 2880 can be used with USB and a computer. But then again, I want anything but an artificial sound. Right now it is between 2880, Meneco and DL4. I already have a Memory man though and I'm afraid of giving my sould to Electro-Harmonix, lol.

Members endo23 Posted June 2, 2006 Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 It's overkill in terms of features and price-- if you just want to make a wall of sound, you don't need all the features the Manecos have. But I probably don't fully comprehend what you intend to do with it, so... if I was you, I'd try the DL4 first, and if it's not enough, you can move it very easily without taking much of a hit, and try something bigger/better. I can't comment on sound quality, but the Manecos are supposed to be "lo-fi digital" so that they sound almost analog. IMO, this is a good thing, but YMMV.

Members purefender07 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2006 New quesiton, sorry for being so annoying. What does the Roland RE-201 do in comparison to the three products I am looking at right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members purefender07 Posted June 3, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 3, 2006 Latest update on my search for a Looper after doing massive research for the past three days. I don't think I will go with the DL4. It seems too cheap and not as vintage I guess. I want to get a Maneco badly (I just have a natural good feeling about it) but if not I will go with the Electro-Harmonix. Again, though if anyone can help me with the Roland RE-201 and tell me what exactly it does in comparison to the other two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BmoreTele Posted June 3, 2006 Members Share Posted June 3, 2006 I am waiting to see exactly what the new Boomerang is all about. The current version has great reviews for ease of use but has issues with noise and is HUGE. The new one is rumored to have much improved noise/signal ratio and other new tricks and to be cheaper. Cheaper is always nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
