The HeadRush Looperboard may be the most advanced looping system built specifically for the live environment. With this one tool you can forge dynamic loops in the heat of a show, then export multitrack audio to your DAW for later layering and mixing. Looperboard’s 7" high-res touchscreen display provides real-time visual feedback and hands-on tactile control of up to four stereo loops. Dedicated Stop/Undo and Rec/Play switches for each loop make it possible to flesh out entire songs and create multitrack mixes on the fly. Looperboard’s onboard effects engine is packed with purpose-driven presets for guitar, vocals, percussion, and beyond. There’s even MIDI connectivity for syncing with external synths, drum machines, and recording setups, along with audio over USB for direct recording capability. With nine hours of onboard record time and SD/USB export and importing, the HeadRush Looperboard is equipped to keep full sets of dynamic backing tracks at your disposal.
Looperboard’s large 7" color touchscreen is easy to read from a standing position, even in the most unforgiving lighting conditions. This screen lets you keep an eye on incoming audio and visualize loops at a glance. Looperboard's touch, swipe, and drag interface is intuitive to use and fast to learn. Even if you're new to loopers, with the HeadRush Looperboard from Music Experience, you're well on your way to becoming an ad-lib authority and multitrack maven.

Looperboard offers endless ways to consolidate your audio into one central hub. Four XLR-1/4" combo inputs with dedicated gain controls and +48 phantom power are equipped to accept everything from microphones to guitar and keyboard gear, with MIDI in/out/thru to maintain sync with external devices. XLR and 1/4" outputs allow you to drive a stage amp and feed a soundboard or recording medium simultaneously. There's even a headphone output for silent monitoring and an 1/8" stereo aux input for audio playback from your phone or tablet.
A premium 16-bit/48kHz signal path within the HeadRush Looperboard preserves the full dynamics and range of every incoming audio source. Drums to vocals, bass to guitar, you can be sure that every layer is heard, felt, and sensed just as it was the moment you first performed it.
With nine hours of onboard recording capability, Looperboard gives you not just songs but entire sets worth of pre-recorded material and looping potential. This makes it a viable option not only for looping aficionados but also for carting dynamic full-band accompaniment to your solo shows and for reproducing vocal harmonies live onstage.
An integrated USB audio interface allows you to record your sets directly to a laptop. You can also store loops onto an SD card or USB drive for safekeeping.
The HeadRush Looperboard was built with the express goal of pushing the art of looping live audio to the next level, so you can create like never before! The Looperboard leaves no room for compromise: It utilizes a powerful quad-core DSP system that has been tailor-made from the ground up, combined with a 7” touch interface, and a generous set of audio inputs and outputs with premium circuitry for superb sound. Plus, there’s over eight hours of on-board recording time with intelligent time-stretch, premium onboard effects, external USB/SD loop storage, onboard USB audio interface, and so much more, all in a tour-ready steel chassis.
A well-refined smart user interface with huge 7” display provides all of the dynamic feedback you need to stay focused on building your loops. You can touch, swipe and drag-and-drop to customize the HeadRush Looperboard to your personal workflow.
The HeadRush Looperboard features premium audio circuitry and operates at a class-leading 32-bit floating 48kHz audio quality, so you can be sure that you'll be capturing every nuance of your performance.
The HeadRush Looperboard can record and playback over nine hours of audio at full quality to its internal storage, and you can also export your loops for later use by using the SD and USB storage inputs.
The intuitive audio routing setup page enables you to quickly route any of the four inputs, four looper tracks, backing track or click track to any of the four outputs and/or headphones output, giving you the ultimate flexibility to optimize your sound at any performance situation.
The 12 built-in footswitches enable you to quickly create and transform your loops and they feature individual RGB LEDs that dynamically update to provide useful feedback. You can record, overdub, play, undo/redo, reverse, transpose, bounce, and peel individual layers off in the reverse order they were added, fade, and clear your individual looper tracks all on-the-fly. You can also reverse, fade, multiply or divide length, and multiply or divide playback speed instantly for your whole loop at once.
