For Christmas I received a DigitechTrio+ band creator. It's my go to solution if I don't want to take the time to set something up in Band in a Box. Hundreds of rythm/bass variations and incredibly intuitive. Stores a dozen tracks at a time, but they can be saved on an external SD card or pc.
Check it out

Thanks Ray. I'll check it out. Tomorrow I'll have time to hopefully get a track or two going. And, I'm going to visit a computer shop and see if I can get the lost tracks back. I think I can but I hope the old computer can handle a Boss restore.

I'm another person who likes his Digitech Trio for "I've just got a few minutes and I want something doesn't sound like a metronome to play with" uses. I've not used the + model's looping function much, just its play in a tempo and chord cadence and then boogie on capabilities.

But here's hoping you get back the tracks you liked from your device.

Frank,for me the loop function is indispensable given that setting up a track is :

- select the positionyou xant to store your track
- Playing throught the track with no embelishments - to teach the Trio+ the chords and rythm
- selecting your bass and rythm section parts
- playing your chords as a backing loop to go with the track you've defined
- making adjustments to speed/styles
- store
- you can add more loop levels, so imagine recording the twin guitar solos of Hotel California - or just one and then play your variation for the second one.

Without the loop, all you have is the bass and drums...... no rythm guitar

Geez, I'm considering this DigiTech. Thanks for the link Ray and your post here, Frank. I'll check out some reviews on youtube.

Here's a link to a very in-depth review/demo of the Trio+. It's well worth bookmarking the video and going back to it regularly - I learn something each time !.

I got back all the tracks in the RC-3 Boss Loop Pedal.!! I took it to a local computer shop and he restored it for me. I'm real happy. Overall I'd like to give a shout out to Boss. I mistakenly erased the factory backing tracks and they are now restored. Thank you Boss for that link.!!

I tried to do it myself but but my computer didn't like it. I ran into a roadblock, so to speak. So I took it to the computer guy and he got it done for me. Super happy right now.

And thanks for the great replies. This is all part of a learning curve for me. And I'm still interested in the DiGi Tech Trio. Thanks everyone.

Thank you. I really like my setup right now. Having a loop pedal, I feel, is the fast track to getting better. It helps with timing. My loops are beginning to be smooth right at that last/first beat. Its fun playing lead over my own rhythms that I've played for years.

Oh ya, can't forget mentioning #95 in the Boss RC-3.!! So glad to have it back.!! Cool.
