How long are the sound loops? Reviews on some other models mention 4-10 seconds and that the short pattern is very annoying. Thanks!

The "brook" sound loop is about 5 seconds; the "thunderstorm" sound loop is about 9 seconds.

I use the "fan" mode which I find to be very soothing. That mode you cannot tell if there is a short loop. I cannot give you an answer to the loop lengths of the other modes. Overall, I LOVE this product!

Mine is probably a dud because it has a piercing noise. It is very clear and particular and I haven't heard any other people commenting about it so mine must be the odd one. The piercing noise turns into an 11 from that scale 1-10 but this seems to be my only case.

if i were you i would go to the local high end audio shop and try these for a while - maybe 20 mins? if you notice any discomfort at all in that time, be aware it *will* magnify over another hour, so consider that.

it's about a minute and it's not that good, if you want this pedal because of the looper you should try to get a real looper pedal like the digitech jamman or boss RC. The flashback should be used for delays only.

I turned mine off. Mine is hooked up for Movies/video games. I didn't like it cuz if there is a 10-15 min stretch of just dialogue in a movie it would turn off, then of course, some action would start, and the sub would take 2-3 to fire up again. My opinion is that it will depend how you use it. i.e. is there a consistent enough LFE fed to the sub that it does not shut down during a movie? For mostly music I would think it will be OK.

I am guessing, but there are two models and I know the model with the four sounds and no music has the shorter cycle only. If that is your case, you don't need to worry about the 45 minute cycle! If you still need help, I will try to find out for you!

Hi there. We sort of like the monitor, don't love it. The sound is annoying. There are 6 levels, but no matter which setting you choose, it does this thing where it's one level when you set it, but then it lowers. Whenever there's sound in the room, it goes back up to where you originally set it. In other words, it tries to think for you? You put it at one setting, but then it lowers. It's frustrating. If I want the sound on HIGH, then leave it there, don't decide FOR ME that I really want it lower.That said, the sound itself is just fine. LOL. If baby cries, you'll hear it!

I haven't used the looper yet, but my emails with someone who has used it and my reading of the owner's manual tells me that it is supposed to be twenty full seconds of playing time.

I haven't pushed it to its limits, but it continues to sound for many minutes before I finally shut it off. I think my max so far has been 11 minutes. The tone changes speed, similar to some alarm clocks, preventing me from "tuning it out" as a background sound. The timer continues to run as the sound continues so I can see how long it's been since the alarm started.

I got mine yesterday and worked great for about 5 minutes... But I noticed the SOUND on/off option wasn't available on my unit - as shown on the user manual... I then pressed the factory reset option (hoping the sound option would appear), but instead the unit completely quit working... Dewalt said there isn't suppose to be a sound option and didn't know why my user manual was showing it.... There was no fix so I ended up having to return it for a new one... The wait begins again....

Very good observation!!! I bought this item to listen to music at work without the inconvenience of being connected to wires. When I first read "up to 328 feet", i was sold. Frankly, i don't think i paid too much attention to the 32.8 ft until after i went back to read it, but by this time, I had already purchased it. The earphones work fine if I'm in close range of the micro-usb adapter, but if i go too far from it (more than 30 feet), it starts distorting and eventually shuts off.

Sounds defective. I would suggest returning it for a refund. I had the same issue with one I received.

I have the "long" one which will play for several hours (at least 6 at the volume levels I use). I found the tiny one (nearly square) which is illustrated totally unacceptable and returned it. User interface didn't work right.

during set up, how was the volume set in your computer/pad/phone? i control the volume in my setup, from my iPad. i believe that i too had that issue, and my son enlightened me. i may also have incorrectly set up the blue tooth. certainly glad my son is patient... because i have only been retired from being a computer programmer for over 30 years, would have hoped that i would have been able to set up a small speaker on my own!

It's okay. I don't know that I find ANY realistic because they can be quite repetitive. It's better than some I've heard. I know that it's the definitive answer you were looking for - sorry. To be honest, I wouldn't recommend this particular sound machine because the 2 I've had had died within a few years.

It is so annoying. If I had but known before I bought it. However, all is not lost. You can make it behave for 24 hours. Simply unplug the wire cord from the back of the sending part. Wait 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Turn it on. It should be good to go. The receiving end does have a volume control; but, after 24 hours you can't turn it low enough. It will go from too high to non existent. Hope this works for you.

So far no problem, but I have used it very few times because I was unimpressed by sound quality. Have charged through the charger, not through my laptop, if that makes any difference. Will watch for problems. Thanks for heads up.
