Boomerang Phrase Sampler (Looper)

Boomerang Looper Phrase Sampler

12/29/11 - The Boomerang phrase sampler has come a long way over the years. The looping capabilities have grown from the original Boomerang, to the Boomerang +, to the Boomerang III. We have owned all three, and must say that the latest Boomerang version (III) is the most capable Boomerang yet.

Boasting the ability to run 3 or 4 loops, the Boomerang III offers a plethora of features that we love, including:

Stacking - "stacking" is adding a part to a loop (There is no limit to the number of parts you can stack.)
Undo/Redo - the last part stacked can be muted, then played again or rerecorded.
Erase - loops can be erased one at a time or all at once; some loops can be erased while others plays.
Copy Loop - a complete loop can be copied whether it is playing or not.
Copy Live - this enables "re-sampling" and is very powerful; the pedal's output is routed to a new loop.
Octave - loop plays at half speed and an octave lower.
Reverse - loop plays backwards.
Once - loop plays one time through then stops or if already playing, it stops at its end.
Stutter - enables repeatedly starting a loop over before it plays all the way through, sort of like record scratching.
Fade - loop(s) fades in or out with one button press; fade time can be 3 to 43 seconds.
Reverse Solo - this is a built-in effect and enables you to create reverse leads live.
Two Sample Rates - 48KHz or 24KHz, both use 20 bit samples; through signal is always 48KHz / 24 bits.
Thru Mute Function - turns off through signal.
Expression Pedal Jack - connect an expression pedal for foot control of overall playback volume or Decay Rate.

The Boomerang III is also able to be used with a Sidecar, made by Boomerang, which is a separate unit that allows for additional features to be accessed at the touch of a button.
