need advise on loop stations

[regu]

hey there fellow rocker!

i'm looking for a affordable loop station or looper out in ther market..
something under $200 that can loop at least 30sec.... erm i've heard tt the boss rc-2 is a difficult loop station to use... but are there any other more easy to use ones out in the market??



cheers!
Regu.

Any pedal, looper included, will have a learning curve. A looper at the basic, only got 4 things, record, playback, overdub and stop. It can be as easy as abc as long willing to read the manual and play with the thing.

RC2 is not difficult to use at all. As long able to read the manual, follow the instruction and spend some time playing. Nothing is too difficult.

if rc2 is too difficult to use, then playing geetar gonna be even harder...

anyway, 200 budget for a looper with at least 30 sec is going to limit the choice extremely. There is not much choice in fact. Even for used stuff that is..

how much will a boss rc-2 cost? and is the digitech jamman a good one?

You needa mucho more dough and flour to get a great looper as you've wished.
BUT! It's worth it. As a looper makes your playing much more diverse and displays your unique creativity.

Jam man and some other looping stations are going to blast right out of your budget

Try some of the digital delay pedals. They might have a looping mode that suits your needs

Threadstarter, your username damn familiar...

Hey guys, i need your help on deciding which looper i should get. Any one has used/tried any of these following loopers and have anything to say?

Akai Headrush E2
Line 6 JM4
Boss RC20xl
Digitech Jam man

I'm actually pretty enticed by the Akai. *cough*KTTunstall*cough* Hehehe.

heh, for a change, tell us what do you want to do with the looper and what do you see yourself looking to use the looper for. What is your preference of the looper(looping time expansion, looped in reverse, additional delay setting to play with etc), what features are essential and not.

help yourself and help us

anyway, what KT did with the looper is the basic of looping, any looper will and can do it. What is important, is her sense of timing(with the activation of the loop, playback, overdub function) which is NOT looper exclusive, but more of practicing and a good sense of timing.
