A+B box?

Ah sorry I think I posted mine at the same time as yours.

Mine was over nine hours before yours (look at the times) ;)

It's all cool though :D I'm getting one myself, although with different functions-a two-input A/B with a volume knob for each (to switch between a passive and active bass without having to adjust anything), with two looper in/outs, master bypass (a really cool function if you want to go immediately to a completely clean signal) and a parallel/series switch (which I don't need now, but may in the future). You can get whatever you want put into those boxes-they're very customizable.

Alright i'm probably getting a single looper with a tuner mute, and a blend pot. Could you be really specific with what I could use a blend pot for?

Pretty much what the description says-a way to blend between your wet and dry signal (meaning your signal through your effects and your signal straight to your amp).

"This option allows you to blend DRY signal with the wet signal of a loop! When turned clear left, you hear dry signal, when turned clear right, you hear wet signal, when turned to the center, you hear 1/2 wet and 1/2 dry. Also includes a rocker switch which bypasses the blend pot, completely removing it from the signal path. Can be added to any number of loops. Choice of switches: Toggle switch, rocker switch (default), or toe-switch. Can also use a footswitch and LED for the ON/OFF operation (add 15.00)."

The Blend pot occasionally doesn't work wel if you're using it with a number of effects in a series on the same loop. Emailing David at Loooper to ask if there'd be a problem using it with your pedal (there shouldn't be) and with any other questions you may have-he's a nice guy, and I always got a response the same day.

My single loooper can bypass like 3 pedals right?

Yeah. If you have all pedals linked up in series (loooperto pedal A to pedal B to pedal C back to loooper), then you'd turn them all on and off with one footswitch. The Master Bypass option isn't really necessary if you're only using one loop-it comes in handy once you start using two or more loops, so you can turn them all off at the same time rather than having to turn them off one-by-one.

But if you're planning on running three pedals in a 1 Loooper and want to get the Blend pot option, make sure to email David at Loooper to make sure that it will work out. If you do a search on Loooper here at TalkBass, you'll see that one or two people had a problem with losing their signal when using the Blend pot because they had several pedals running at the same time. Do a search for the specifics if you need to.
