I've been trying to take a good look at this http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.aspx?ObjectId=772

Three independent loops, lock to MIDI clock, stereo...

It's amazing that, just at the time when arrangers DROP this feature, guitarists pick up and run with it, and suddenly it's cool...!

Still not sure what I'm talking about? Think Roland... Think Chord Sequencer

These things, at least for the first pass, are pretty much EXACTLY the same as a Chord Seq. Record your accompaniment the first time through, then you play two handed (just like a guitarist!) over the top of it. Stop it at any time, change it at any time, and wow! You can actually CHANGE what the loop does in realtime, WHILE you play the solo!

It's pretty scary when guitarists can fathom what a great musical tool these can be, but arranger players (and manufacturers) could care less...

Still, stay tuned. I think I am going to get one of these to try, and see if I can use it as a faux Chord Sequencer on my G70. If it locks to MIDI clock and stays in sync, I might die happy!

Those of us that can play a secondary instrument, but don't want to give up the interactivity of arrangers could ALL use something like this, and, of course, don't get me started about playing solos with TWO hands!

Wish me luck...
