I have been interested in the VG systems for a long time but keep holding off from going for my wallet for one reason or another. I was rather impressed with the VG-8 when it first came out. And, as I was told that the VG-88 had some better acoustic guitar models in it I tried it out as well a few times (finding at least that claim to be somewhat true as far as "nylon" strings models go). The built-in controller pedal was a nice addition too. But, I guess I keep hoping that they'll take the next logical step: combine the VG and the synth technologies in the same box. I have such an array of FX crap laid out on the floor in front of me when I play that I cannot reach all of the pedals from one singe place (standing or seated) without looking like I'm attempting to do the splits (an impossibility at my age). Plus, I have some fairly odd routing/splitting requirements that the VGs won't quite accommodate (as far as I know) anyway. Anywho, I realize now that this has about zilch to do with looping and apologize for contributing to this OT thread.
