Hi Chris,

As someone already answered, the archives contain plenty of discussion on 
this
topic.  I would like to point out that you might want to keep something in 
mind
while reading old posts:  EDP and Repeater are really different beasties 
and you
need to know in advance what you want to do and what your present operating
techniques are.  Then get whichever device fits you the best.  If, like me,
you're still at the "I want to be able to loop on stage" stage, then 
you'll need
to do a lot of soul searching and archives reading.  Getting your hands on 
both
wouldn't hurt, either.  Try before you buy!  So far, my Akai Headrush is 
keeping
me from rushing out and buying an EDP or Repeater today.  But it'll happen,
eventually.  My goals (so far) are to play a guitar loop for use in Berlin
School music and to create ambient soundscapes.

Cheers,
