Re:Acoustic Looping Rig

Not sure that anyone was actually looking for more options here, but I 
can recommend the L.R. Baggs 'Para Acoustic DI' preamp.  It's a single 
channel, but provides parallel 1/4 inch and XLR outputs, a 1/4 inch TRS 
loop for your looper or other effects pedal, nice EQ including 'tuned' 
feedback filter, plus phantom or battery power options.
