Looks quite nice and complete.

It doesn't seem to allow audio via USB, so those (like me) having everything else in a 19" rig will have to run audio cables across the floor.
Would've been nice only needing a bundled MID/+USB cable across the floor.
Anyone seen the manual?  I didn't; maybe my eyes needs a checkup ;)

Also, does it allow extending an already recorded phrase, or whould this be done by recording on one of the additional loops?

Though the RC300 is fairly large, I could live with this next to my Rocktron All Access (a decently compact almost square footprint controller with three rows of PC/CC buttons) plus the two swell pedals.
