Digital Electronics. Sturdy case that holds well on the ground. Knobs and buttons within easy reach. Well thought out ergonomics

UTILIZATION

Manuel very succinct but Headrush intuitive approach. It juggles Delay, Echo, and Looper.
The main use for me is the Looper.
Volume control of the output signal (signal modified by the internal electronics) that does not have enough range for my taste. Between zero and maximum position, there is little difference.
Another black spot I think it's time recording mode Looper. It was at max 37 seconds, making chick. (Way too little)
Another unfavorable remark: Can not save a recorded loop. This case has no input and has an entry μphone instrument .. It's a fair bit.
For those who want to short it's all good riffs but for others, big Pb .. I am part of others.

SOUND QUALITY

Good sound quality, nothing to say. My use is mostly not too Looper opinion on the time and the Echo.
I use this pedal with my guitar-Electric (Taylor, Yamaha), Yamaha MG82 to table mix + amp + speaker Yamaha S115 Interm.
I am truly saddened by the lack of recording time and the inability to store it somewhere loops.
In fact so much so that I return in exchange for a Digitech JamMan who seems more versatile, with Compact Flash storage, from a μPhone. While more expensive but probably better suited to my tastes

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using 2d and despite the good build quality, good sound quality, the price was right, I am disappointed with this box that I use mainly Looper.
Clearly, the 37s max recording is too short, the failure to store her curls is very disabling, as the only input device limits the use.
The E2 Headrush is currently in its original box towards the seller for an exchange with another more expensive model but certainly offering more opportunity.
Overall rating 4 / 10.
