Does everything said.
Hard max trs short, we are in 2008, the memory is cheap and a map of a memory or 2GB ditable on a PC would have much better. Reminder: 1GB ~ 1h uncompressed> 5h mp3, twice with modern cuts, their 16mn is ridiculous.
No USB / Firewire / Bluetooth ...
The pedals at least 5 years behind in using technology.
A good point for the auxiliary input.

UTILIZATION

Manuel clear, in French (September 2007).
Intuitive and fast for basic use in automatic mode.
Use not intuitive at all if you want to go further.
Finding a rhythm pattern is one galre: thirty explore Manir squentielle pattern without any visual indication. I find none!
And if you do not play in binary we must look elsewhere.
LEDs that say things diffrent in three colors (green, yellow, red) and fixed lighting, flashing and blinking rapidly ... ... It's not what I call user-friendly.
Imagine a live use: press once to Get You Started the loop, two strokes for the arrter if not recorded above, a long shot to cancel the Previous Layer, knowing that the layers of before it can no longer accdez. While playing, singing, smiling etc..

SOUND QUALITY

The bypass is not 100% transparent.
Premire loop, the sound is correct, a little breath all of the same. Following layers, going fast in dsastre: Premire the layers decreases rapidly trs quality: loss of level, loss of dynamic bandwidth and loss of breath.
NOT the sound quality is not good trs ds when we play on anything other than a small combo of study. (It seems that I have not the same quality as the CRITERIA view previous ones).

OVERALL OPINION

I've had four months, I use it daily to work. It's like that I Whereas, a working tool. But I would never use it live, let alone recording.
Basic Usage: trs well.
Learning pace of the game: excellent.
Advanced: bof.
Live and recording use: no!
Its main default, a big technology gap (cf CHARACTERISTICS).
