A Little History
In 1983, Electro-Harmonix released what would become
a legendary and more importantly, revolutionary, musical
instrument…
The 16 Second Delay. Aside from being
the first looper ever invented, it helped change the way music
was created while presenting individual musicians with a way to
manipulate their creations instantly. The concept of looping, as
we know it today, was an entirely new dimension in musical
expression in 1983 and the
16 Second Delay was an
instant hit.
In 2004, the music public demanded the 16 Second’s re-release, and it once again became an all-time classic.
Electro-Harmonix is now proud to present the 2880 Super Multi-track Looper. The new definition
in complex expression for performance and the studio. This powerful and interactive instrument follows a traditional
recording layout, so it will feel instantly familiar. However, there are significant differences that go well beyond the
recording world. In fact, at the ver
y least it is a multitrack recorder. When vie
wed as a whole, it is a multifaceted
per-
formance instrument with significant advantages in both live performance and as a personal recording instrument.
