Re: Advice sought - unbroken, seamless loops
The EDP and the Looperlative are excellent for use in
Kevin's email. The Repeater, not as much. I don't
have an issue with it but there's a tiny split second
bump in volume at the start of the loop. Not a click
but it can be noticable. I guess it's the price for
all the DSP crazyness that the Repeater does.
I don't know about the Line6 DL-4, but in stompboxes
the Boss Giga Delay will also make seamless loops and
is damn cheap.
