New DigiTech TRIO - "Band in a Box"

[Conway]

And when did you get a 65Amp and why am I only hearing about it now?

Got it from Opsguy as part of a swap for one of my PRSs. Now it looks like I'll be cashing it up if Matt is happy with it (and its a hard amp not to be happy with).

Bugger. Would love to have tried that!

There's 2 days before Matt comes to try it...

[Conway]

Yeah the omission of a looper or a looper sync kinda dealbreaks for me, I'm simply not a good enough soloist to do the trio thing

I guess it's just a matter of time before they realise that a combined Trio/Jamman is the next step forward. Hopefully...

[Bg]

they aren't stupid, they'll cash in. Hopefully...

this... I want to try 65 amp too. I can bring beer/wine/malt

no looping though, it needs to do a whole run through your tune, then it thinks bass and drums and ignores you chord progression? as in it doesn't record it? I think if you've gone that far, I'd want it to play it back! or give me t he choice? did I miss that?

Don't see the problem; why not just put it in front of a looper?

Yeah spose, but then you'd have to hit the switch on the trio and the switch on the looper at the same time, or run through the chord progression twice, once for the trio and once to loop it. Just would be easy with a looper built in no?

It has a seperate out for the drum and bass to go into a mixer, but a stereo looper would work I think?!??!?!

Hmmm. This is where it gets tricky. The separate out for drum and bass is essential if you play through a distorted amp. An integrated stereo looper should work but would push the price way beyond many prospective purchasers, me included. Might be a V2 plan if the basic model proves popular.

I don't think the separate drum/bass outs are a problem, as long as you stick to the same progression that would work fine anyway. Of course getting it all to actually match perfectly might be an issue...

I look forward to playing with myself to find out.

I have a stereo looper already (RC-3) so it's not a huge step if I wanted to go that way, but I dare say when I get round to playing live I'll just use drum and bass tracks on my laptop

You might want to hurry.
