Ciao Miko!
Thanks for replying!
I wait for your answer, i would just please you and the others to follow 
the
numbers i wrote about what i would like. This is for me to be able to
understand better. Especially if you will use a simple english and will
explain tecnic terms... And so to just write for each number what the other
loopers you know do or not. Also the boss, because even reading the boss
site i still am not able to understand tecnical caracteristics...
I need to control the sound in real time, and to not stop to act to control
it. Well, to act with the voice i mean. So, if i start with one loop, and
then i add more loops, if after i need just the first loop, or even not the
first, any one of the loops alone, i would like to be able to have it 
alone.
If i have to reach this be deleting the others one by one it could be ok,
even if not perfect. Could be interesting a "solo" function. If there are
memories for a number of loop could be easy to have such a function, i 
don't
understand why loopers seem not to have it. This is the more important. To
be able to create a atmospheare with a loop on the other and the to go back
in the order i want or at least from the last to the first. I don't
understand if in hte boss i have to delete all the loops togheter.
After comes the possibility to control time, pitch and volume of any loop.
Anyway, if it is for the global loop it could be good the same.
I absolutely neeed more than two loops. I wouold like as much as i want, 
but
anyway, as more as possible, the number and the timing, i mean how long 
they
are.
If there is a number, it would be useful to be able to choose wich loop to
change for the new one. I mean, if there are only ten loops, it would be 
not
good if the last delete the last, or the last delete the first. I would 
like
to decide wich one to delete.
Even if i don't understand: there is a difference beetween number of loops
and number of overdubbings? The number of loop means the number of memories
i can control (end, volume, tempo) separately, and each of this memory i 
can
overdub it as much as i want? Or to overdub mean always to create a new
loop?
Well, i will not bore you anymore.
Thanks!
Sergio

Will think about a reply and send to you personally, Mr. To Die For.  By
this I do not mean the first HTML reply that I sent.

I may not know the answer, but I hate leaving desperate souls in states of
complete  self-reliance.  It's best to offer clues until they make it to 
the
space of their own insight, at least.

Sorry to others for posting this advance-of-reply reply.

I'm really sorry, excuse me, i sended you my mail in html, i was sure it 
was
turned off..., i repeat it now:

Hallo all You,
I'm Sergio, I'm writing from italy, and I'm sorry for my english...
I have a problem and the solution it is urgent!
I have ordered a boss rc20 thinking it was the only looper. And now i know
maybe it is the worse. Or anyway not the one i need. I have really a few
time to stop the order. Well, i could try tomorrow even if you not answer 
me
and wait for your answer. i'll do it, but i hope you'll answer soon...
I am a young actor, even if my interests in music are strong.
I saw a show by an alternative japanese group who did something in real 
time
with voice. Very dramatic! I think they where using something like delay 
too
and echo and reverb, but mostly they used loop. Sound on sound...
I find it very useful.
Well, i will explain what i would like from a looper:
1)to be able to record a sound which can last long (the global loop should
definitively last longer that 10 seconds or 20. At least 1 or 2 minutes i
think, even if it is difficult to know it now without any practical
experience. I should create a sonic atmosphere on wich to act. So i would
use it for voice, or maybe also keyboard. And i think i will need a long
time).
2)to be able to record other sounds on the first one, overdub, sound on
sound, i think those are the terms.
3)to be able to change the time of the global loop, and, if it is possible,
of a single loop. Yes, I would really like to be able to change time to 
each
loop. I know from your site that most of the looper have a limited time and
limited loops. If there was limited time but unlimited loops could have 
been
impossible to remember the position of a single loop. But with 10, for
example, i could. And would be useful to be able to change volume and 
tempo,
and also pitch, of each loop.
4)to be able to let me choose which loop to stop. In the order i want. If i
have ten loops going on, i would like to stop all for a while and then 
start
all again, and then to stop the first, then the fourth, then the last, for
example. At least the last, and the new last, and so on, alias, 10, 9, 8, 
7,
6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. even if i should remember the order of any loop... I
would prefer to be able to stop in the order i prefer. It would be
unpleasant just to have to stop all or nothing! I could rerecord some of 
the
loops again, but i should act while loops are playing, so i cant stop 
acting
to sing a loop again...
5)to be able to choose both two of these: that if for example i have two
loops, and the first is shorter, i should both let the first go on
continuosly even is going out of phase, or let the first wait the end of 
the
second and then to start again togheter...
That's all. For a looper.
If i could have some effects... I would like delay, reverb. Basically.
Wonderfull if distortion, echo, and others...
Edp seems the right one. But it is at least the double of price. I'm buying
a boss rc20 for 375 euro, i think the same in $$. I don't know, i would
remain without money but if you tell me that with the boss i can only 
record
ten loops and let them go togheter and stop them togheter, mmm. Also i 
think
to understand that edp has got some effect. Dl4 too, but the time of a loop
is really too short. For me. I just have fear that i can't find here in
sicily the memories to upgrade the time of the edp to those 3 minutes that
should be enough for me.
CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME???
So, i am truely (i sincerely would not like to let you loose your time if i
could loose it for you) unable to understand by myself wich one of all the
possibilities does what i want.
 ah, all in real time absolutely, live performance...
I sincerely thanks you...
Sergio
