Both the Repeater and the EDP are great boxes.  Repeaters are no longer 
made, but you can get service for them.  Used Repeaters hover around 
$600 as do used EDPs.  Neither comes with any footswitch.  The EDPs 
seems pretty good and quiet, but a little delicate.  Since any MIDI 
footswitch will work for the Repeater people seem to like (as do I) the 
Behringer FCB1010.  It's tough and quiet.  However, for Record, stop 
and undo functions I use the Digitech F300, which does have stompbox 
like buttons.  They don't bother me, but I'm not using acoustic 
instruments.

Regardless, I'd look at both boxes and see what they do and figure out 
which one fits your needs and then find footswitches that work for you. 
  There are options for both.
