I don't know a ton about this yet- they're due to come out sometime early this year. It'll be at NAMM if anyone wants to found out more on it. Apparently it will be a single track looper, but will have multiple levels of undo and lots of replace options, so it will be like the Echoplex where you can have one track but still replace it entirely while playing. It'll have MIDI sync in and out and be around the $300 range.
 
Mini is in comparison to its big brother the LP1. The LP2 is actually about the same size as a DL4.

The LP2 is monophonic and offers features not available in other looping pedals in the same price range.

Best of all, it was created by me another TalkBass member. :)
 
The feedback toggle is apparently being switched to an expression pedal input. Found these specs elsewhere:
Specs

* Midi Sync (in/out)
* Balanced and UnBalanced Inputs (for microphones with tip/ring/sleeve jacks)
* 20 db boost option on input
* 20+ levels of Undo
* Feedback with automatic Undo points at every 10% reduction of feedback
* Record/Overdub
* Play/Stop
* Retrigger (One Shot)
* Retrigger (Play Continuously)
* Forward/Reverse
* 1/2 Speed/Double Speed
* 1/4 Speed/Quadruple Speed
* Quantized Slice Replacement at these musical increments: 1/8, 1/16, for 4/4, 1/12, 1/24 for triplet 8ths and triplet 16ths
* 1/7, 1/9, 1/10 for odd time signatures
* 1/64 for glitching
* Storage (and retrieval) of up to 8 loops on a 4 gig SD Card
* Battery Operated (one 9v battery for 2 hours continuous play) or Wall Wart AC adapter
 
Last thing I read on it was that Bob was "working with a mechanical engineer to design the enclosure for the LP2. This is currently the only thing holding up the LP2."
