Hello Dave,

From the way you're asking I suspect that you're looking for something for pre-recorded sample playback, but if you are looking to do live looping with different phrase lengths, I can really heartily recommend Ableton Live (with a good foot pedal), or for hardware, the new Boomerang III.  But there is no provision at all for saving sounds on the Boomerang (which suits me fine, but may not be your cuppa tea).

I'd be happy to provide more details if you're interested on or off list.

Cheers,

ben
