Manufacturer’s site out of production, possibly the first multieffect pedal with a looper
I have had a GNX4 for quite a while and I am trying to get into looping for lack of a bass player. First off, the loops will have a gap if you do not download
the new operating system for the thing (version 1.3). Instructions for how to do this are on the Digitech website. One of the patches in the new operating system
fixes the hesitation (gap) that is a problem with the stock unit. I am going to try to use the GNX4 for looping so I can jam with just me and a drummer,
I am not real good at it yet just beginning. I notice a lot of folks think the GNX4 is no good for looping but I don’t see any mention of the new operating system that
you can download from the internet. It updates through the USB connection of the unit. As soon as I updated the hesitation was gone. I dont know if this
thing will work as a looper for me, I may have to go with a separate dedicated unit to get what I want. I do think that the click tracks are death if you dont
want to play in 4/4 time all the time so I always turn the click off. I like more jazzy odd timing stuff. I wonder why you guys dont seem to have a review of the
GNX4s looping abilities on your website? You could use what I just wrote as a review if you wish, though I would like to read a review from someone who has taken
it further and is more experienced with looping with this unit. I bought the extra footswitch that records, erases and lays up to 8 tracks with practically infinite
length.
