Hi there -
I've used an Akai Headrush E2 for a couple of years for basic live looping, but I'm looking to change my live setup in ways that the Akai can't support...
I've pored over all of the specs of the various pedals out there and my head is spinning. Would anyone be willing to give their suggestion for what would be best for the following:
- Background: I'm a singer/songwriter who primarily uses just an acoustic guitar as accompaniment (for now).
- My biggest need: I want to be able to create drum loops prior to my shows to use as backup, so I can then access different pre-recorded loops easily (sometimes 2 or 3 different loops within a song) and turn each one on and off easily. I will also be doing some on-the-fly vocal looping that I will need to be able to store and turn on and off as well. Optimally, I want to do all of this using just foot switches.
I was looking at the Digitech Jamman Stereo or the Delay, but I don't know if either one will absolutely do what I need, or if there is one that is better suited for that?
If not, I am also open to getting an Ipad and going the software route, or setting up my Macbook Pro as well...
Thanks so much for any suggestions anyone has for me!
