Great looper with a badly broken rhythm section.
The looper side of this pedal is great.
But the rhythm side is bad. The management software is worse.
Boss is sure you will love their rhythms patterns, so they are all practically the same and there is no way to edit them. You'll have to audition them all to find out what they are 'cause they provide no notational index.
The software to edit patterns is straight out of the '90s and bad. Plus, you can't edit the included patterns.
There is no management software for the settings stored within the device globally or the settings within the patterns individually.
I'm keeping this unit based upon the utility and quality of the looper side.
I would not buy another unless Roland/Boss addresses the deficiencies of the rhythm side with a serious firmware + management software upgrade. My unit has the newest firmware at the time of writing this comment ( Ver.1.09 ).
I don't do reviews, but this product was special.
