Mooer GL100 Groove Loop/Drum

Sarebbe un gran prodotto se non avesse "problemi di tempo". Non capisce il BPM a cui si sta registrando il loop, applica sempre il doppio del BPM al quale si sta suonando e lo imposta così in automatico. Inoltre dopo la prima registrazione imposta un count-in che non si può disabilitare a meno di resecare lo slot e quando si registra con il count in c'è sempre un ritardo fra i loop (per non parlare del fatto che il count-in ha un tempo sbagliato visto che sbaglia ad impostare il BPM). Restituito.

I'm a jazz improviser, and I'm using this looper along with an EHX Bass9 to perform solo. It is exactly what I expected after reading its description. Overall the functionality and experience is similar to what I get from my Spark2 looper but in a pedal format.

I previously had a Boomerang which was awesome but also was large and frankly required me to remember too many details to perform live flawlessly. Though the manual for the GL100 is 35 pages long, I find it intuitive after just a little practice. The touchscreen + rotary dial are easy to use.

The auto-record and drum machine (or flashing LED if you prefer) do indeed guarantee a perfect start and stop every time. The two footswitches make it very easy to reliably dub, undo/redo, and stop. The auto fade out (2 speeds) is useful, as is the wide range of tempo values. Overall it's a big improvement over the 1-button loopers I've used.

The built in drum sounds are good but for the most part are loud and are not at all subtle, more suited to rock than the music I play. But I can make my own drum loops on my Mac and load them.

Minus one star for quality since it played random stuff until I updated the firmware. Minus another star since the Mooer Studio software is not signed correctly and was (rightly) a pain to install on Mac; Mooer Studio works but is very slow.

Other improvements I'd like to see and would pay for: Ability to name the loops in Mooer Studio so I don't have to remember numbers. Support for 2 (or, better, 3!) simultaneous loops. Stereo 1/4" inputs & outputs (as opposed to 2 mono inputs/outputs). MIDI clock input.

Positives
+ very intuitive to use
+ has a lot of features for the price, e.g. touchscreen, drum machine, two footswitches, lot's of memory slots and capacity for long loops.

Negatives
- Single track looper only (though you have to pay much more for a dual track looper).
- parts of the display are quite small to read - I'm either too tall and/or too shortsighted these days.
- No additional footswitch socket to control the looper as a desklooper (so you can read what the display says) or to switch the drums on and off independently of the loop.
- power supply only, doesn't work on batteries.
- MAJOR FLAW - the PC software to manage/import tracks DOESN'T EXIST.
