yeah with ease. The 2880 has some real weak points to it, like all four of the loop are synched to the master loop, making it kinda pointless. A stutter function, loop multiply, etc etc etc would all be VERY welcome upgrades to it. 24 bit as well.

Take the 2880 and add the functionality of the EDP to it with storage. I’d be all over that.

Kefler: I’m having trouble with post mix-down additional tracking: After I’ve completed a mixdown from the first 4 tracks and I want to layer additional tracks, the previous tracks are still attatched to the individual track fader and when say punching in a vocal overdub on “track 2”, first time through pre mixdown the guitar track was also on track 2: when you try to get your track of vocals the guitar still is on that track so the volume comes up with that… Any suggestions?

Also the unit should be able to accomodate having multiple loops stored onto a single compact flash card.

Peace

for my two cents: 24bits 96hrtz, and low jitter…….that would make it very good…

also, if it could do some of the roland chooper stuff, that would be way cool

and, fx loop would bring it up a notch…….

also, abelton live is getting popular so if I were designing a new looper, I would take that in consideration

ableton 8 will replace these things on my board/in my collection as it has in a realtime sound on sound sampler:

2880
SMM/H as a looper
Vintage 16 second delay [hosted lowfi vst]
Dl4
Electrix Repeater
Boomerang
Dl4
DD-20
Akai headrush
a couple maneco’s that somedays work…..
a few more.

Now if EHX could correct a couple of issues with the 2880, even if it is just unsynching the tracks and adding a multiply i would gladly use it instead of a macbook onstage.

also add to my desires variable bit and sample rate, as i like things burning and lowfi.

Through the ’70s and ’80s EHX released new versions of their main pedals on a regular basis, viz Memory Man, Small Stone > Polyphase, Big Muff, Octave Multiplexer, Crying Tone et al. The 2880 seems to have had a big effect among musicians so, in the nature of EHX’s natural evolution (?), one would expect an updated model of the 2880, just as there has been a flurry of updated and alternative Muffs.
