We've heard lots of feedback about how people would like to manage loops and we're looking at some new ways to do things in new products, but loop length isn't something we've heard being too short. Thanks for the input! Hi Jack,

The loop time in VoiceLive Play and Play GTX is the same as in VoiceLive 2 and Touch. We’ve heard lots of feedback about how people would like to manage loops and we’re looking at some new ways to do things in new products, but loop length isn’t something we’ve heard being too short. Thanks for the input!

Really. Look at "old" Harmony G-XT. It has MORE switches, MORE programs inside program and it's MORE usefull onstage. GTX is like toy for preset-clickers who wants only have more presets, no matter that the number means nothing onstage. There's no A/B/Clean switches, what makes simple things like fast changing harmonies during singing - impossible! Yup, you gave us "HIT" switch - most of "screaming wanna-be indie stars" will think, that this switch magically make them hitmakers.... TC - sorry - it's a shame. Instead of more powerfull successor of G-XT you've just made a TOY. Please - convince me to don't think about GTX like about a toy - I want to make deep rewiev for 3 Polish bigest websites and magazines for musicians, but... What should I write? "LCD is nice, you can swith between presets, effects are nice..." end of review? your faithful endorcer.... don't screw it.

I and a lot of my fellow professionals need at least 60 seconds to accompany a verse with guitar solo!....amazing.

I think she was talking to me about the VoiceLive Play. But what you are showing on this site, looks darker than the unit you were showing @ Namm. The one at Namm looked like a much lighter blue in color. Is the VoiceLive Play the same unit? Or do you have another unit that is designed for vocalist that is lighter blue in color? Please help.

Finally, after just one night of using the MP-70, I was SUPER SURPRISED at the change this mic made to my sound.
