Re: [Harp-L] Useage of looping gear

[Eric Miller <miller.eric.t@xxxxxxxxx>]

I will say its much easier to use on the ipad than the iphone (ive used
both) simply because of size.

I added a berhinger FCB1010 midi pedalboard for $120 that addresses many of
your concerns, and both an irig midi and a 1/8" splitter that allows you to
use headphones and line in at the same time.

Maybe the best way to see what it can do is check out the featured artists
page

And, again, at the end of the day, like you said its $8 vs. $500 for the
RC-50 and $549 for the RC-300
