thanks for the link, Tuck is amazing ! yeah i guess you're right,
while i was waiting for the Behringer octave pedal to arrive from
germany (Paris stores dont stock Behringer products for some reason) i
went and tried out a boss and it doesn't pass for an acceptable bass
sound so i'm sure the Behringer will be no use, back to the drawing
board, i thought to preload bass parts into the loop pedal but i still
have feelings that that's somehow cheating ..
