As it happens, I'm incorporating techno into my looping and really love the repeater, since it's really easy to sample on the fly, and then save loops to work with later. The sound quality is superb as well. The time stretching and multiple tracks are proving to be a really useful tool as well. <smile> Of course, I'm also looking at an edp, or two, whose features I'm not real familiar with at the moment, as well. -but would still choose the Repeater for what I'm doing. -If I had to. <smile> -just my thoughts. -Best of luck... smiles, CQ At 04:20 PM 8/25/02 -0500, you wrote: >At 10:02 AM 8/25/2002 -0700, Mark Hamburg wrote: >>Sylvan Music in Santa Cruz. >> >>They want $629, however, which puts it within spitting distance of yet >>another Echoplex and is now twice the price of a Line6 Echo Pro. >> >>People keep saying that one should have both.
