RE: newb questions - The Electrix Repeater

["Jordan Pease" <jordan@rvml.org>]

The Electrix Repeater is a very good choice for your applications. If you
use a flash card reader you can import data into computer.

I've used many hardware looping tools and this unit is hard to match. I 
plug
mine into a MIDI drum machine and have hours of fun playing guitar for 
hours
with myself.

You'll need a mixer of some kind to easily get multiple input sources 
routed
into it or suffer having to repatch when switching inputs. I don't suggest
using AUX busses for this because just using a dedicated mixer or switcher
of some kind for selecting inputs just works much better in my experience.

They're on e-bay usually for about $600 and well worth the price.

Good luck!
