Good job demonstrating the device , I will buy one!

[@sdmc222]

You mentioned the looper can be controlled also by an external footswitch. I can't get the extra footswitch to work with anything except scrolling through the presets

[@gear4musicguitars]

Hi sdmc222, Please can you let us know what footswitch you are using with your VE8 Acoustic singer pedal. Kind regards, Gear4music

[@Martin-kx8yv]

QUESTION!, can I plug other pedals along with it? example a wAh wah????

[@localhobo]

Hi, possibly a stupid question but, do you need to use an electric acoustic for it to work?

[@macknolan410]

localhobo preferred but you could mic your guitar with a nice instrument mic but they are usually expensive in some cases over $1,000.00 for a real good one. you can buy a phenomenal acoustic guitar pick up made by LR Baggs for $200.00 to $300.00 plus installation without drilling holes in your guitar. You'll have to decide if your guitar is worth it. if you own a lower priced guitar might be worth it to buy a Taylor 214ce or 210e series acoustic guitar for $800.00 to $1,200.00 rather than to invest $300.00 in a $300.00 guitar. your guitar will still be worth $300.00. however Taylor uses the same expression II pickup in the 200 series guitars as the very expensive ones they sell $2,000.00 and above.

When you began the loop, you recorded some vocals over the top of the guitar but around 4:55 you had cut the vocals out and just had the guitar loop playing. Was this done with an external foot switch or were you using the vocal harmonies function and not looping the vocals at all?

[@gear4musicguitars]

Hiya Nathan Thanks for your message. The vocals on this video were not looped they were performed using the harmony function on the pedal. If you have any more questions, do not hesitate to ask. Kind Regards Gear4music

[@nathanwood3225]

Is there the possibility to start and stop vocal loops and guitar loops independently? As you can record them separately

[@gear4musicguitars]

Hi Nathan From looking at the manual, it seems to suggest that you can’t start and stop the guitar/vocal loops independently. Many Thanks Gear4music

[@staceyjane2860]

Hello, just wondering, is it possible to connect another looper to this so I can use the effects from the VE-8 and the looping ability from say, a RC30?

[@gear4musicguitars]

Hi there Stacey, Thanks for getting in touch. Yes, in theory, it should be no different to adding any other guitar pedal to your signal chain. We hope this helps.

[@staceyjane2860]

It gives me hope! I just don't know in which order to connect. I'd assume VE-8 first so I can get the acoustic resonance from the pedal through to my looper. Ive never done signal chains before!

[@thearoom]

can you press a button for solo to make it a bit louder on the fly

[@gear4musicguitars]

Hello thearoom, Whilst there isn't a solo button to boost the signal, the BOSS VE-8 Acoustic Singer features a vocal doubling effect that will help to provide more depth and presence whilst singing. Kind regards, Gear4music
