with the dl4 do you have to us a guitar? or can i just use my mic? i beatbox and i want to get something like this so i can beat and loop my beats. can i hook a mike up to it??
@bobajmasta You can you just need the right cables... a band called "the Album Leaf" does some looping of vocals through it but its more of an ambient sound, but it could work for you too!
does the dl4 allow polyrhythmic looping? is it possible to record a loop and overdub something for a shorter duration such that it'll be out of sync? or do all overdubs have to start and end at the same time the previous loops do?
i do similar stuff to this, and i use a boss loopstation, i find that it makes the music more entertaining if i put the pedal by one of my feet so that i can add some start stops and use the revers setting, nice stuff though man
Dude seriously, I've been on graveyard shift watching guitar loop videos and you're the first one I've found using the pedal to make something awesome. I have one video of me doing something like this (although I go towards Battles rather than Trans Am/Champs type sound)
Bottom line: Tight. Inspired me to play/record more and that's why I get on youtube.
Nice vid! I have a couple of questions about the pedal. When you record a new part does it just mix it permanently with the existing loop, or can you record multiple parts to drop in and out? How many inputs are there- do you need a seperate mixer to do vocals and guitar for instance? Does this pedal have more or less looping features than the Headrush? thanks :)
i own the same pedal, and a big problem with it, is that you cannot take out layers, which is a real pain if you get a sick layer in, and you screw it up with another layer that just sucks. there are 2 inputs, and 2 outputs, (for 2 amps) and there is no input for vocals unfortunately.
I actually use an Akai Headrush 2 now. I just find that it is friendlier to how I use it. But the DL4 is an amazing pedal. I would definately suggest it to anyone.

A few questions:
Does the DL4 have 14 seconds to record each loop? Or just 14 seconds total to store one large loop?
Also, what kind of camera specifically did you use to record this whole thing?
GREAT video! I watch it regularly!
SomeShows 4 years ago
14 seconds in regular mode. there is an extended mode where you get 28.

You can record over and over and over each "layer" being 14 seconds long..

can you use the delay effects while using the loop function?
fassw88 4 years ago
you can get a delay effect up while you loop. but you have no control with the tap tempo.
