BOOMERANG PLUS.
The Rang� is the coolest phrase sampler around.
So what's a phrase sampler? It's a musical tool that records, makes
loops, adds parts (as many as you want), plays in reverse, plays back
faster or slower than normal and more.
The Rang� is a rugged, steel floor pedal with six foot switches and a unique foot roller for volume control.
It
can be a songwriter's scratch pad, a tireless partner for rehearsing or
jamming, and an amazing live performance tool. Best of all, using a
Rang� will improve your playing, and as a recent magazine article says,
it has "a knock out fun factor."
BOOMERANG FEATURES:
- Easiest to use phrase sampler on the planet. It's set up for hands
free operation; a single button press controls most functions.
- 2
independent loops. There are a couple of ways to move seamlessly
between loops. One mode, called AB1, smoothly transitions to loop B,
plays it once, then goes back to playing loop A, all with one button
press.
- After creating a loop, additional parts can be layered in forward or reverse.
- The STACK button, which adds parts, can be either latching or momentary - your choice.
- There
are 7 decay rates to choose from: 1 is no decay, 2 provides about 22
repeats (the rate of the original Rang�), 3 thru 6 are progressively
quicker and 7 is slapback (1 repeat). The faster decay rates and
latching STACK button make the Rang� a great tap tempo delay. You can
use loop A as a phrase sampler and loop B as a traditional delay
effect. Independent decay rates can be set for loops A and B.
- The
RECORD button can be programmed to be disabled during playback. Some
folks don't want to worry about hitting it while adjusting the foot
roller.
- 5 slow speeds. All are
musically related to normal speed. Your choices are: down a 2nd, 4th,
5th, 7th or octave. Playback tempo is slowed and pitch is dropped by
the chosen interval.
-Live reverse
leads! The Rang� has a mode where it records and plays back
simultaneously, producing the "reversed tape" sound used by Jimi
Hendrix, The Beatles and others.
- Long
recording time. Time ranges from 1 min. 27 sec. to 4 min. 16 sec.
depending on which sample rate you chose. Sample rates range from 24KHz
down to 8KHz. All samples are 16 bit with no compression.
-Power supply is included. |
