Re: EHX 2880 or 45000 users say it loud say it proud!
After reading the 45000 manual, the ONLY differences I can see
between the 2880 and the 45000 are these:
"The 45000 Multi-Track Looping Recorder takes the 2880 and builds
upon it, adding key features such as the ability to store and recall up
to 100 loops on one SD card and an output dedicated to monitoring. "
So, a new card format (SD instead of CF), the ability to manage
stored loops without a computer (I routinely swap the loops on my CF
card by setting up folders in which I store the old loops), and a
separate output for monitoring which includes the click.
Meh...
Still my favorite looper so far due to it's tactile interface and
varispeed / reverse functions....

I have used the 2880 for years, and was involved in some early
testing, however I am not familiar with the 45000.
In the case of Reggie Watts demonstration, he has the "beat" on one
track, the "percussion (hi-hats)" on another, the bass on another,
and the harmonies on a fourth.
Here's a link to the manual:

It has four tracks (meaning "slots for loops to spin") and they can be
muted and mixed while loops run in parallel (much like you work LP1 or
Repater), so it might be just that he mixed on the fly? As long as
parts are not layered into the same loop any mix of them is possible.

It sounded like he brought in the three part vocal harmony over the new
bassline, which makes me wonder if individual track swaps are possible..

It sounded to me like he began a new loop, with a new bass line and a
new rhythm pattern, sang over that for a bit, then went back to the
original one.

This may have been achieved by moving to a new loop

The question of individual track replacement is an interesting one.
In the Reggie Watts demonstration on youtube he appears to swap the
bass line for a new one and then goes back to the original bass line
without interrupting the groove.
How is this achieved on the 45000?

You know what? I gotta say that I would get this looper, but, I wish
you could have a master loop or track playing at the same time as the
other loops, like with the Boomerang III.
I really like the idea of having that master loop sync'd up with your
other loops.
The 45000 seems really really powerful, with individual control over
individual tracks and elements. I wish it had that one feature!
I suppose I could use a drum machine, but that complicates things more.
