Sheeran Loopers Looper X

On a random basis , the pedal led switches won't switch on, so the looper does not work! PLESE FIX!
below my review prior to the issue

Caveat to this message: I am not a professional looping artist nor professional guitar player.

I am an intermediate level enthusiast that enjoys looping and gears as a way to practice creativity in music given lack of time to play in a band.

With that said, I am the owner of a Boss RC 600 and just purchased the Sheeran Looper X.

Here’s a few first impressions compared to RC 600 after playing for a few days with my new loop station:


Benefit #1 - The main benefit in my view is the absolute ease of use at all levels. After seeing this video I was able to loop on the get go and use features I had never used on RC 600. Extremely intuitive. The base workflow is very easy and minimizes timing errors too.

Benefit #2- Ability to route and adjust levels all outputs: IMHO it is absolutely necessary to get loop decent quality. This is something the RC 600 falls short on and requires midi programming and an external unit to send midi messages. Fantastic to route outputs to a mixer and adjust on the fly.


Benefit #3 super high build quality. The pedals are outstanding and extremely solid. The video display is gorgeous and something a modern unit must have. The RC 600 immediately looks like something of the past, despite quite honestly you can do a whole lot with the boss unit at the price of not necessarily being too easy to use, given a limited display with suboptimal menu navigation abilities

The looper X main downside is price. A fair price point should be on the 600-800 € range. I believe their target is professional live looping artists but price will limit adoption. The unit exceeds my abilities and probably not justified given my skills, but others at my same skills level will likely choose not to upgrade.

A second downside is number of tracks: Would Headrush consider programming the unit in a way that more track could be used (ie 6-8)?
