    I’m thinking of buying an EHX 2880 and 2880 foot controller. I’ve read the 2880 Reference manual from the E-H web site. Does the EHX have options for the three questions in my subject line?

    Metronome/Rhythm Track–what does the 2880 have and how many options?

    Time signature–Can you manually set a time signature other than 4 beats per measure (e.g., 7/4)? (The online EH 2880 Reference Guide only refers to the internal clock as 4 beats per measure, but it might just be to illustrate a simple example of how the EH 2880 is used.) Can the 2880 detect if your playing in an odd meter and set the metronome or rhythm track to it? Once you’ve mixed down the loops and save them to a PC, does the saved file include the metronome or rhythm track?

    Time shift options for practicing–Can you slow down recorded tracks (either from an auxiliary input or a recorded loop) without changing pitch?

    Thanks.

    I wish I could help but I don’t own one…. there are some 2880 users around but they aren’t here 24/7 so you might have to wait a little while for some help … if you don’t get a reply in a day or two then you might be better off sending an email to ehx.

    the forum isn’t EHX staffed (although some do pop in occasionally) so the admin here only have experience with the pedals they own/have owned.

    anyway, welcome to the forum. :)

    only one click type available (with its own volume level)

    standard 4/4

    when you time shift it will always shift the pitch as well

    hope this helps
