Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Electro-Harmonix 45000 Foot Controller.

Features and functionality

  • The 45000 lacks an undo function, unlike the smaller EHX 720, but offers a punch-in feature that overwrites previous loops.

    Source
  • The 45000 looper mixes all recorded signals into one output, regardless of stereo mode or panning settings, potentially limiting its use in complex stereo setups.

    Source

Build quality

  • The foot controller's quarter-inch attachment can slip out easily, affecting performance during live use.

    Source

User experience

  • Users report a brief pause when first playing back a newly recorded loop, which can be disorienting initially.

    Source
  • Owners report that the dry signal routing remains independent, but once a loop is recorded, both tracks output through a single channel, which can complicate live performance setups.

    Source

Use cases and applications

  • The looper is praised for syncing with MIDI devices like Roland TR-8 drum machines, enhancing its use as a compositional tool.

    Source
  • Some users suggest using the 45000 looper primarily for samples loaded on SD cards or electronic instruments, given its challenges in isolating signal outputs.

    Source

Other

  • A new EHX looper is in development, potentially addressing some 45000 limitations, with integrated switches and possibly an undo function.

    Source

Comparisons

  • Users highlight the Boomerang looper's ability to maintain separate signal paths for different inputs, unlike the 45000, which mixes them, indicating a potential limitation for complex routing.

    Source

Software and compatibility

  • The 45000's manual indicates that outputs are a mixdown of the loop, which may not suit users needing distinct output paths for each input channel.
