See the feature on the site boss but I quickly list what seems useful:

-Input Stereo / Mono
Input-Aux (mp3, Pc and everything that is connected with a Jack 3.5)
-Output Stereo / Mono
Headphone-Output (Jack 6.3)
Usb Port
But, NOT memory card

.

UTILIZATION

Grip (and foot!) Impeccable French manual very simple and clear (be careful to check that there is in French with the manual).

Use: only for guitar, recording songs and covers of morceaux.Les three independent tracks are easy

Recording and overdub endlessly and a pedal stop, which supported many times will the pace of the drum machine.

Scrolling menus, settings and task is simple with the dial and arrows. Each button one or two uses simple are indicated.

SOUND QUALITY

Excellent audio quality, some effects but without interest if it already has its own pedals.

.

OVERALL OPINION

Most:

-Getting Started.
Once lit it is possible to get some things without even reading the manual, even if this kind of pedal is not too much for beginners it is very accessible and easy to use. But reading the manual is not REQUIRED to be trapped and hair pulling. (With synchronizations track and drum machine when you wish to record a long solo on a short chaining agreements, for example)

-Capacity Memory (9h)
But no memory card usb output for any transfer to a computer, USB cable not provided

Box-paced varied.

Panel-option
With three "track" simultaneously (such as having three loopers at the same time ultimately) the creative possibilities are rather huge.

-Strength.
Drop a bag (shoulder strap that loose at the wrong time) on concrete, stumble and catch leaping above (pedal has not suffered, it was not the case for everyone, so do not leave your jacks). Short despite me she was put to the test, its hull metal proven!

-Sound Quality.
Rendering impeccable 100w amp, headphone and Pc (mp3 tracks). Be careful though when changes tempo after recording audio modulation appears from + / - 20bpm.

Some effects-not too too bad, but this remains a looper pedal, I prefer to pair my effects pedals.





Cons:

-The price a little prohibitive, but the quality is (largely) the appointment.

-Each sample (a sample is the number given to a group of three tracks) is independent, it is impossible to go from one to the other without interruption. Annoying when there is a change of tempo on the same piece that must be recorded over three tracks.

-Time work during backups on all if the memory starts to be full. (This is a few scares when the pedal "work" for more than a minute to save your last song ...)

I-quibble, but when you record a loop just over a minute fast forward a little would have been very convenient to rework it.
