To Buy or Not to Buy?

Hi all, I already own a Digitech Trio + which is an awesome piece of kit that puts a drum and bass line under a chord progression and also has a (basic) loop function on it. However, I do find myself shouting at the user manual quite a lot though, as I don’t find it the most intuitive bit of tech to get my head around (could be an age thing :grinning:).
I’m thinking of getting the new two-channel Sheeran+ looper that seems to be a lot more straightforward to operate, and has an XLR mic input - I figure I can always import some drum loops if needed, or wondered if I could run the two pedals in tandem just to pick the drums up from the Trio. (that could be more complicated than it sounds though even if it is possible).
I’m pretty much a ‘bedroom’ player so it’s just for fun.
Any input (pun intended!) welcome

You may be interested in this one too:

One big problem you will have with two independent loopers will be synchronising the loops. this will be pretty difficult and you might find it more trouble than it’s worth. The advantage the Trio+ has is the loop is automatically synchronised with the backing.

I guess you could record the generated output from the Trio into the other looper in a second step, and then disable the Trio.

Cheers,

Keith

Boss RC Units would be top of my list if I was looking for something different to the Trio. Boss RC10R might suit your needs if you want plenty of drum choices. The one I am personally considering - primarily for vocals - is Boss RC500.

Uhhh 🫨 :fire:… was this guy the behind the scenes mind of the band Prodigy or something? I mean that was totally amazing. I just got a starter looper on Amazon for $50 USD with 9 channels. I am absolutely sure it wont do this, but I am willing to practice guitar and learn the other stuff hopefully enough to give it a go someday. Man I would love to be able to lay it down like that. Thanks for posting that coolass video Majik, that dude at Andertons is so cool. The owner is too, they both are.
