Looking for a box that records/loops

Hi all-
I'm looking for a box/pod where I can record a short rhythm track where I can loop it so I can jam with myself. Had a whole list bookmarked, now can't figure out what's what. :confused: Any recommendations? I'd prefer that I be able to feed the signal out to my amp. Thanks in advance.

Boss has one that I've heard is pretty nice. The RC-2, it's a bit on the steep end though, 179 bucks.

Thanks, MRAFTER. Saw the demo at the Boss site, and it looks just like what I need. Yah, kinda pricey, will have to put it on my wish list for now.

I was looking at the RC-2 and RC-50.. they look really awesome.. but yeh.. really pricey :(

checking ebay now, and going to call my local mom and pop shop to see if they have one (used) for sale. I need more loops!

I've got a Digitech JamMan... very very easy to use... and if I wanted I could record 6 hours of loops to play along to. It also has a basic drum machine built in so you can be your own band.... :)

Thanks, ren, but I think that's more than I want to spend. My needs are pretty simple- just looping a rhythm track. The rc-2 has a drum machine built in also. Hey, if you live in da Bronx, I can hop on a subway; I'll give ya...how about $50? :D

This one looks kinda groovy.

Thanks for the recommendations guys (lost my bid on Ebay).

hmmm...decisions, decisions....

ren: how "basic" is the drum machine, and how many different types of rhythms does the JamMan have? The description is kinda vague when I looked it up- "Metronome with multiple rhythm sounds and time signatures". I didn't find the demo of it at the digitech site as impressive as the Boss rc-2.

Kevin: Yeah, the Line 6 box definitely looks groovy. Very impressive specs, but I haven't been able to find a vid demo of it yet, not on youtube or even the Line 6 site. You have any personal experience with this box? Line 6 seems to make quality stuff from what I've seen.

I think I'm going to spend a bit more than originally intended. The ability to expand memory is a real plus. I'm in one of my "I really want that" moods, so I may have something by this weekend. If I do, I'll let you guys know. Thanks again for input. If not for alimony, I could buy my own studio! :mad: ;)
