JoyoLooper & Drum Machine Pedal for Electric Guitar Effect (O.M.B R-06) - Cycle Recording

Fun pedal , easy to use , great drum sounds and good for creating new ideas

Es un pedal que tiene lo que promete, por el precio es una buena opción para iniciarse en el uso del looper. Una herramienta para probar arreglos sobre progresiones de acordes o para practicar sin metrónomo usando los sonidos de batería. Al inicio es difícil acoplarse a grabar usando la batería porque se siente un retraso pero necesito pasar más tiempo con el pedal para dar una opinión definitiva sobre el modo looper+drums. Pero por separado drums y looper van genial. Las luces led son un detalle extra, pueden parpadear a la velocidad de la batería, estar siempre prendidas o estar apagadas. En general tiene una buena relación calidad-precio permite hasta 40 minutos de grabación en capas, 7 estilos de batería distintos (género).Cosas mejorables: el control de volumen de la batería va desde el inicio muy alto y de ahí hacia arriba, hay que tenerlo muy cerca del cero para un volumen moderado.No tiene opción de usarse con batería de 9v y no incluye cable de alimentación.Para algunas personas las opciones de drums pueden ser limitadas (no hay muchas opciones de compases) pero hay que tener en cuenta el accesible precio.

Not what I expected

I am no great guitar player by any means. I have been playing guitar on and off for the last 30 years. As I am not to familiar with looper/drummers (this is my first) there was a slight learning curve to get it to do what I wanted it to. After playing with it for about 30 minutes I got use to how it works and felt comfortable with it. I really like the looper ability to this pedal. I can record myself playing a repeating rhythm and then kicking in the looper and switching to lead. I was a little disappointed with the drummer with it having a somewhat limited amount of pre-programmed drumming in it. As far as the genre settings some sounded very close to the same with little change up. I wish I could set my own simple drum up and have it play along with my loop but for that I am aware the price would be way higher. For $99 I paid for this pedal I think the pricing is pretty spot on and getting more and more use to its operations I believe this will provide plenty of jamming time. I would have given it 5 stars across the board if the drumming was a little better but otherwise it could be just me and others will probably love the features this pedal has. It is very well built and does not feel cheap at all. It takes a regular 9V power plugged into the top of the pedal but you cannot install a 9V battery inside which would be even better. Overall this is a pretty good pedal and the price wont break your bank.

Does what it says. It is limited in editing loops, so i use it for ideas when writing, improvising, and practicing groove.The drums sound fine, and the choices for beats are sufficient. Would I use this for a solo gig? Yes and no. If it was a small type gig with no PA, I’d use it to loop a rhythm and improvise over it.There a tap tempo which works ok, each drum style has several variations. It is kind of hard to see the font on pedal especially when tempo light is flashing in your eyes.I did have a small glitch when looping, where The guitar signal kept cutting off. It went away, but thats an issue if you want to use it live.I recommend it if you want to spend 100 bucks on a drum machine/looper. I added a video with 4 guitar parts through a small amp so You can hear the quality through an amp.Overall, I am happy with it as it inspires me to play and practice.
