The fact that the Microcosm is stereo makes it a real winner for me.
It felt like the Blooper was a super deep looper with some awesome effects and mangling capabilities, and on the other hand the Microcosm is a super deep effects processor with an awesome looper. I sold my Blooper before this had arrived and I think so far I prefer the Microcosm but in a lot of respects they're very different. Now that it's working for me I think the effects are absolutely incredible. I'm quite well versed in complicated techy gear setups but I guess sometimes you just gotta turn the damn thing off and back on again. I was very frustrated and even sent an email to Hologram thinking it was actually broken (Sorry Ryan ). Turns out I just rebooted my whole setup (as there's a computer and an audio interface in play) and voila, the MAGIC. At times I would get no effected sound out of 75% of the modes and I'd walk away and come back and it would behave differently. I've been messing with it last night and today and it wasn't behaving as I would have expected it to.
I'm using mine in a loop in my audio interface in Ableton Live, I assume you're not using it in the same fashion but I had to turn the gain down quite a bit on the send to the Microcosm and crank the gain on the return.
