Re: AW: Electro-Harmonix MM w/Hazarai
Thanks Rainer, you had written a great review earlier which I reread. I
actually don't see myself using the delays too much, I'm not much for
distinguishable echoes anymore, it's the really the tweakability of the
looper I'm interested in. #2 is actually a bigger bummer because I like
tabletop control; hmm...that might make it almost unusable for me unless
I can somehow change that (wiring an external footswitch...?). Shoot, I
hadn't really thought about that before.
I do have a PDS2000 in storage, maybe I need to drag that out and give
it a whirl again.
regards,
Daryl Shawn
