Luis, I was told at a GuitarCenter that the DD-5 is no longer produced. The DD-6 has limited looping capability but beware if you depend on the tapping feature: the DD-6 no longer has a separate tapping input jack but instead you must press the pedal for 3 seconds while in delay-mode in order to put it into tapping mode. This means you can only tap the tempo of a delay that is already on (with most probably wrong timing, otherwise, why would you want to tap it)! Genuinely bad interface design... BTW: someone should teach those marketing guys at Boss a lesson. They're insulting a musician's intellect. E.g.: "The BOSS DD-5 [...] access to delays from 1ms all the way up to a walloping 2000ms. " yeah, 2000 milliseconds sounds a lot more "walloping" than 2 seconds, right... (http://www.bossus.com/index.asp?pg=1&tmp=15) "The DD-6 [...] Reverse mode makes it easy to get trippy ‘60s and ‘70s-style effects, while the newly designed Warp mode creates radical delay effects on the fly." (http://www.bossus.com/index.asp?pg=1&tmp=118) Exactly what I need: "instant", "easy", "on the fly", ... And thanx for being so specific about the "radical delay effects"! (I use the DD-5 on a daily basis, though ;) ) Bernhard http://nosuch.biz http://loopfestival.com > -----Original Message----- > From: L. Angulo [mailto:labalou2000@yahoo.com] > Sent: Sonntag, 24.
