Audio-wise, the Circle is a real step up! Unlike the Nux Loop Core which has 16bit audio, it boasts 24bit. Impressive!! Powering Off Process: Having to unplug the pedal when finished can be a minor annoyance. Incorporating a true bypass switch for a smoother power-off experience would be beneficial. Another plus for the RC-5 comes with its sound quality which features 32-bit sound processing, while the Flamma FS21 has 24 bit sound processing. Plus, the RC-5 provides 99 memory slots with 13 hours of recording time in total. The numbers for Flamma are 40 memory slots with 160 minutes of total recording time. The Mooer Groove Loop brings the micro looper together with the micro drummer in one micro pedal, forming the ultimate jamming companion. Like the rest of the mentioned pedals, both modes can be used simultaneously or independently. Metronome Types: Musicians know the importance of timing. The Donner Circle Looper offers 10 metronome types, allowing for precise control over your practice sessions and performances.
As a musical accessories brand created to use the latest music technology to inspire musicians all over the world, Flamma is a relatively new member of the scene of the musical products. It was founded by veteran musicians and engineers who are highly experienced in the music sector. Their aim is to make the industry more accessible for working musicians and students who are in need of better quality and more affordable musical products.
Another significant aspect of the JTC Pro is its 6 hours of recording capacity with 256 slots which is much higher than the capacity of Flamma FS21. JTC Pro also offers different ends to the loops, such as immediate stop, stop at the end of the loop or fade out.
If you require advanced arrangement capabilities like setting up intro, bridge, and chorus sections within your loops, this pedal might fall short. While it excels as a looper, such features could potentially be enhanced through software updates. CONCLUSION: SUMMARY OF THIS DONNER CIRCLE LOOPER PEDAL REVIEW ARTICLEOne thing to mention here is that it doesn’t include a power supply. So yes it’s cheap, but you should mentally add a little on for that. How Does the Donner Circle Looper Perform? And How Does it Sound? KHZ 24bit Looper: The pedal boasts a high-quality 44.1kHz 24-bit looper, ensuring top-notch audio quality for your recordings and loops. Opt for the Trio & you get a whopping 12 different music genres to choose from. Something you don’t get with the Donner Circle. The Nux also offers more in th way of recording time in comparison to the Circle. At 300 minutes, that figure’s close to double!!
In regards to foot-switches, both pedals are made of metal & feel substantial enough to stand on. Neither of these pedals feel cheap by any means.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
This is a basic pedal for basic needs. It can be a tremendous first looper pedal for home practice. It costs almost the same as Flamma FS21 with similar sound quality but fewer and more limited features. Summary It’s a great musical notepad. For getting down ideas or scatting out chord progressions, the Circle is ideal. The Circle is also 60g lighter too, & yet if you ask us, feels to be the better built of the two. Quite surprising, but considering the price, it doesn’t feel cheap.
Especially when to label something ‘the best’ is actually pretty daft. To claim such a thing is pretty much like saying something smells awful or like rotten fish – it’s an opinion, not fact.I was hesitant to try this, but I had been seeing signs of a company trying to rebrand and step things up a notch. Also, you can't get these features in a looper unless you pay close to twice as much. After messing with this for a bit, I must say I am impressed. The build quality (especially the switches) is better than the old pedals that have been discontinued. The printed designs look of better quality, and the digital display is very nice. The knobs are solid.
