    TC Electronic specialists compiled a list of features that characterize a good looper, and then removed from it all unnecessary functions that might distract the user. The result is an intuitive looper that gives a lot of fun while playing, sounds great and you don’t have to rob a bank to become its owner.

    It takes up the minimum footprint of the pedalboard and has all the essential features that make any guitarist’s heart beat faster: True Bypass and Analog-Dry-Through analog signal path to maintain crystal-clear sound quality.

    Ditto Looper just records loops. True, one knob and button may seem a bit minimalist, but you’ll find everything you need here. The recording, undo/redo, stop and erase functions are triggered with the foot via various combinations of the footswitch. And it works, whether you want to record another loop, go from one part to the next [yes, live artist, you’re talking about], or add another layer to your song.

    The looper is tiny, which means it can always be squeezed somewhere! The effect takes up almost zero space in your pedalboard, so you can reserve the most valuable space for … more TC cubes.

    It allows you to record 5-minute loops, which is much more than you’ll ever need. Looking realistically, how many 10-hour songs would you like to keep receiving concert offers?

    This pedal is very good for just laying down some backing chords and “guitar entered” bass tracks to play along with it.

    The footswitches on TC electronics pedals don’t click when stomped as other brands do. The switching just takes a gentle tap rather than a stomp. I feel like these switches are superior in quality and will last longer than the standard click-on/click-off types on other mini pedals.
