One thing I've found over the years is that you'll learn more about people when you read non professional reviews than you learn about the gear... in many cases. Don't worry, someone somewhere will hate everything and they tend to be vocal. >From what I can hear about the RC-50 is that if you're not syncing it to a drum machine it seems like a pretty good box. Not my bag, but I bet good music can be made with it. Am I wrong on this one? I've kind of stopped following the threads after "it doesn't sync well." The talk about the JamMan faded so fast I have no idea what it does... nor do I care. The Lexicon JamMan is still THE JamMan for me. Get one, they're great.... unless you're one of the people who hate it. Bad reviews on the EDP? Again, not my bag but it executes what it does really well. Maybe it is my bag, as I now seem to be very happy with a software emulation of it running from a laptop. I'm sure it's not the same but it does what I ask it to do. I love the Repeater... but it honestly hasn't seen a signal for a month... will it hit my closet? (ebay) Perhaps... My heros seem to have foresaken their hardware gear for laptop versions. Still nothing touches what this sucker does in software or other hardware. Does it have warts? Sure, but show me some gear that doesn't. Looperlative? For sure get a laptop. It's cool, but for the cash you'll be better off with a decent laptop and Mobius. If you're totally anti laptop then this is as good a choice as any. 2880? Haven't hear anything bad about that... except you only get a loop at a time but surely with all those tracks... The thing about your first looper is that it will be like your first girlfriend/boyfriend. You shan't forget them, but they will often tell you many things about what you don't want as well as a few that you can't get enough of.
