Rocktron PatchMate Loop 8

I use it for less than a month using the time of writing.
I have not tested any other looper / switcher before twelve o'clock, there were not too many choices in this format anyway, the only one I spotted was gcx voodoo lab that is just a little more expensive.

What I like most is the rather simple programming of the machine, it just allows me to control my overdrive and distortion pedals (soon a compressor and clean boost) and therefore just need to control program change.
To initialize the device-this says it takes time to read the manual in English only (but not very hard to understand), otherwise you will struggle! After this step you just need to select the loops you want to activate this program change and press hop store and it's good!
I also like the side that gcx less sober, you know when this loop is active far.
The switcher in any case does not color the sound and generates no noise at all so good on this side!

What I do not like against it by the AC adapter (the same as the Voodoo Lab GCX) weighs his weight and also take up space on my rack drawer ... therefore obliged to fix it with the Velcro in a corner of the tray rack.
Then there's all the cables to buy back because you have to buy the jack cables to connect the pedals to the loops but also need jack cables to connect each loop them ... so you have a budget for that also ...
Therefore prefer solderless cables to have the least possible length of cable, which will prevent you from damaging your sound and allow you to properly organize your rack.

I think the price / quality ratio is very good and I certainly would do this choice!

How long have you use it?
I use it for 3 months

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
I especially find a looper which is good quality I do not want the sound of my pedals that j'insrai in Patchmate be dnaturalis. It is relatively flexible, dsqu'on understood how he pilot (Program Change and Control Change PC # CC #) is an incredible ease!
The black dot against by that I met (but may be my fault) the lack of information on this product, I could not find it in France, no instruction in French and visibly for the moment not many people who possde. So with a difficult bte beginners but once found rgal.

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Essay no ... for I am far from a big city and so complicated! So I made my opinion the internet, I admit that I doubted until I understand the Patchmate. I hsit with the Voodoo Lab but it is the price that has prevailed! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="wink" />

How do you report qualitprix?
Good qualitprix is ​​one reason why I took the Patchmate, crechendo prices rise in this type of product, its direct competitor is a bit more expensive but I think it is quality Scabies with Patchmate vrifier as I made my choice by critics here and l.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...
Yes if I had not hsit sub I will take the pdalier ACCESS All but my Roland FC 300 is just as well it's just a question of power.

Used since qq months.
very easy to use.
it's cheaper than voodoo lab or other loopers ...
there are 8 inputs (pedals last eight possible) but also suitable for switching two heads and two preamp ... the configs can vary at will ...
What about the other:
it's perfect: the pedals in a rack, all controlled by a MIDI foot controller that also controls the preamp in my case ... So anything is possible
I use a Rocktron pedals midimate and TriAxis;
no change in signal ... the sound remains the same

I use it for several months. It is very easy to use once you understand the principle (noon). A bit expensive, but it's professional quality. There are no deadlines, no sound, everything is instantaneous and without noise / unwanted sound.

Configurable, 1, 2 or 8 loop the same time.
Loop 8 mono or 4 stereo loop.

I use it for my looper pedal with my preamp. I control my loop8 and preamp at the same time without problems. My MIDI Controller is a Behringer FCB 1010

Final word BEAUTIFUL!
