I'm getting one. Looks very, very nifty, plus I'm sure the price will be fairly reasonable.

Very interested if it can loop for a decent amount of time, overdub, and if the price is nice.

I wonder if it functions like the flashback looper? Not a bad looper, but it's annoying pressing for 2 seconds to erase the loops.
This would be good with a couple of out expression pedals.

Fuuuuuck I hope that it is decent.

As much as I'd love a reverse function, this still looks right up my alley.

Let's dumb down all the effects cause guitarists are the new drummers... Boo I say...

Honestly it's probably just the loop function taken out of the flashback. So if you guys are down with that, then this should work.
I thought it sounded nice on the FB, but it was annoying to bend down to move the rotary, and then hold to erase. If this is like $100, I may hit.

I had this inclination as well. I mean a simple looper is great, but I think them framing it as a "dumbed down looper for guitarists made by guitarists" is a bad implication.

The marketing may be pretty shite, but I'd say fair enough, there are the Boomerangs and Looperlatives out there already, this will do nicely.

Ding Ding Ding Winner Winner Chicken Dinner...
You know that all previous pedals were created by Catfish Farmers or JPL Scientists... The guitarist boards on ILF are getting smaller while the bassists are getting bigger... Maybe we are the new drummers...

I think this could be a great idea. Even if you have or want to use a more comprehensive looper, this can always sneak in somewhere as a simpler back-up or second layer. I use multiple loop/delay effects on my vocal/noise rig, and I favor simplicity and small footprint over a squillion options. As long as this thing has a long enough loop cycle, and preferably it can layer loops, then fuck my nutsack, I'm down.

Maybe you like your stuff all quantized and synched, MIDI in and out, word clock, all that? May I suggest putting one of these on your pedalboard?
Me, I'll stick with fucked up chaotic unpredictability. I don't need to strap Moby to my pedalboard.

Me either dude. I use a looper for ambience, and then one to loop chords and drones with!
