A little about me:
Sean Daniel is a man. A man of simple needs and desires. And the one desire, no, the one NEED, that stands above all is to spread the challenges, joy and intellectual stimulus of music to people of Earth and beyond.
Born on the mean streets of upper middle class suburban Chicago, Sean learned the ways of the world through the dizzying heights of success to the lonesome depths of failure and emerged with the promise of a better tomorrow reflecting in his eyes and fiery passion in his belly.
He plays and teaches guitar on his KZbin channel where he regularly releases original music and projects to the adulation of legions of fans, who often compare him to Chris Pratt and one time Ryan Reynolds. He’s currently in the market for a nice leather jacket.

Love the looper stuff. Just got one myself. Really helps in improving timing. Keep the looper lessons coming!

[@Theguywithwing]

Thank you, Sean! Literally, just bought my first looping pedal 3 weeks ago. Enjoying it a lot so far. Really appreciate your videos, helping me a lot to develop this skill. Please, keep it up!

[@seandaniel23]

You and Kira are like the Xana: Warrior Princess and Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) of music.

[@lesliel1182]

Nice to see you going back to your roots, I study with you all the time. I bought a Boss dual a few years ago and have yet to use it.

[@justbeingmybestbob]

I agree that starting out a two button pedal would have been easier (especially when stopping to for a chorus/bridge) but after using the RC-1 for a while it became easier as most things do with practice. Loved the video Sean, you're always funny and make the videos fun.

[@AW-nm3yg]

I have just bought this looper and found your tips really useful for getting started.Thanks.

[@scottboswell8784]

ive been waiting for this exact video. thanks sean

[@donindri]

Nice, love the loopy stuff! Thanks for posting 😎

[@peterrebhahn1113]

Your videos are usually over my head but I think I can use this one so I saved it. I'd welcome more like it.

[@andrewdrake6224]

Thanks great video simple and straightforward. Love the tip on taking the loop from the middle. Peace.

[@eganruiz]

Thanks for the tutorial! I just got that Donner looper a couple of weeks ago, and this is very helpful! Cheers!!!

[@seandaniel23]

Congrats!

[@ColdCanadian911]

Thanks for this video. I just purchased a looper pedal and was searching for ideas on how and what to use it. I should have bought one with a drum beat. It’s my first and only pedal for this newb. Thanks 🙏🏻 again. 😊

[@jackschijven8219]

Super good instructions for starting to loop. Thanks.

[@Mattwest1985]

I got looping down after some practice. I really appreciate this video tho good sir. You do a swell job of explaining it.

[@seandaniel23]

So great to hear! I'll have a new looping vid coming soon!

[@brianwoodard339]

Another lesson showing more looper use for scales/chord/development/etc. would be great. Thanks for this lesson.

[@drewdietz2115]

another very good one sir Sean.

[@fpvtv2222]

good stuff Sean!

[@joepike6460]

Hey Sean, great video! My uncle also stopped sending me birthday presents a couple of years back and I’m 27, he thinks a fist bump once in a blue moon is acceptable and I for one say screw that guy he’s a cheap skate and does not deserve my blood coursing through his veins. I’d really like to see a video on all the different options you can overlay chords with when using a looper pedal and how it may lead to more interesting progressions when writing your own music. PS. I’m just starting out teaching guitar to beginners now and your videos help me so much for planning lessons out so thank you so much.

[@williamdevlin366]

Thank you again for a great demo!!!

[@seandaniel23]

happy to help!

[@miguelbarrera8052]

Very good video on how to start. I didn't know this particular pedal existed but it seems pretty cool. I just ordered my first looper, one of those cheap Chinese ones, a Lekato, it seems to be OK. I like that it also has this loop light to guide you on the loop's length. I think, especially for beginners like me, it's very handy to remember when the loop starts. Maybe in the future I'll buy this Donner one. The second switch, as you said, is also very handy and the drum rhythms is a great plus. And it still has the loops lights! I have seen some advanced/expensive looper pedals without that loop light, probably advanced players who already are good with timing don't mind, but I would :) Great video again. Thanks!

[@tomjacavino425]

They say you're never too old to learn and you showed me a new path. thanks, I'll be back. you have a nice touch.

[@jamesalley7387]

Super valuable.

[@malev05]

I have that same pedal. It's a lot of fun. Highly recommended

[@norris6495]

Love your music

[@AlexanderDekhtyar]

Great video.

[@rdwalter]

Love your level of instruction because I'm advanced but no professional. Plus you remind me my favorite comedian Steve Martin.

[@thefirstdude]

Hey, Sean, been watching your videos for more than 2 years. This one is by far my favorite! Practical, fun, and easy to understand-more, please. Love your opening jokes as well. Thanks a bunch! I’m looping tomorrow (insert your own punch line.)

[@seandaniel23]

So glad it was helpful!

[@srscott10]

Thx, very good looper tips.

[@gregb6387]

Great basic way to solo over chords.

[@CooperMusicPage]

Can always use more looper exercises! Also the second example had the makings of In The Air Tonight, I kept waiting for the drum breakdown 😁

[@freesk8]

...hold on...

[@guidobrunellijr.3]

Hmmm, wish I saw this before I got the RC 505 its cool and all , Your bud Dovydas introduced me to live looping . All I needed was something like this

[@mburtondavis]

I have the same looper. I love it.

[@jaminjim44]

I just bought one of these and I could t get it to do nothing lol I was hitting the first button to start and stop lol man thanks for the awesome video!! This video is why I bought one!!! Appreciate you my brother!!

[@kjonesysea4758]

This was a perfect introduction to using looper pedals

[@humblegeorge]

Great job ! I bought one,,,,,,,and then saw this :>)

[@jamesalley7387]

I laughed when the fusion groove came on. Hah! Awesome

[@wallyh24]

Bought an RC-1 about 2 months ago, I’ve yet to take it out of the box...how to’s and progression example videos would be super helpful

[@seandaniel23]

Alright more coming soon!

[@Montreal_Audio_Systems]

I have same looper is amazing does so much sounds great and its so cheap

[@alvinuselton912]

Great video

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much!

[@kennethochoa7550]

GREAT VIDEO SEAN ! I'VE HAD MY LOOPER 4 A YEAR OR 2 BUT I NEVER HAVE TRIED IT OUT THIS TUT GIVES ME THE COURAGE TO DIG IN. I LIKED THAT PIC IN PIC, WISH ALL OF UR VIDEO HAD THEM, U ALSO TOUCHED ON BENDS AND DOUBLE STOPS SOUNDED COOL AND YOU JUMPED INTO THAT JAZZ VERY COOLEY "YEAH MY TWEET MY WORDS" THANKS AGAIN NOW ITS UP TO ME TO GET ON THE BALL AND TAKE THAT FIRST STEP

[@seandaniel23]

Definitely keep rocking that looper!

[@mattdcusmc]

Sean, I've been waiting for this video and have not even known it. The simple strategy of leaving space has made a huge difference and given me a breakthrough in my progression. Please post some looper pedal exercises. Thank you for all of your great content!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much for saying so! I'll have more coming soon!

[@maxandkellyestesrealestate]

Very interesting

[@guitarpicker1393]

Love my looper ... and when I crank up the amp with 6-7 layers going.. so do the neighbours 😉. Seriously though,, they are lot of fun. Thanks for the vid

[@seandaniel23]

Looper pedals are the best!

[@drsmith4582]

Did you ever get around to running the looper pedal through the guitar amp’s effects loop? If so, how well did it work?

[@rkirby61]

Total novice here. I would love to know how to plug this in, and what connections/ cords I need

[@rohan-ghosh]

You could adjust the volume in your background loop using your guitar volume controller so the loop is softer....

[@davidwhite2195]

It would be cool if you did a looper lesson with the boss rc-505

[@historicus146]

If you want to do a acoustic guitar strumming loop....and you dont have a pickup in the acoustic, can you use a microphone into the looper?

[@rohanmarriner5626]

So you can loop guitar over the backing tracks right? Also, how many loops can you add on top of each other?

[@joesteffe6155]

I also need and slap back delay . Do u reckon for me Pls

[@MelodyMaker]

Lovin' Donner. Canadians...a heads up - check the Canadian Donner inventory prior to purchase otherwise your backorder could sit for a long while. Their website Canadian inventory may not be correct so check with their customer service first.

[@globalnova]

0:25 haha what exactly will you be going over at the end there Sean?

[@PeterGilesKnows]

MOAR LOOPS!

[@DaPoopIsInDaPudding]

Loopers are the best. You are too Mr. Daniel 😎

[@samraffertymusic]

Very helpful! :) Ashamed to say I haven't used my looper pedal in months, I find it really tricky getting the timing right. I really need to get back into it!

[@markbradford9984]

Nice vid, Sean. I just bought the pedal at 20% off. My first piece of Donner gear. Ryde on. As always, ❤️ the StVincent!

[@seandaniel23]

Congrats!!!

[@650thunderbird]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@rudai123]

Do you ever use a looper live?

[@danielrenaud3985]

I might even start liking jazz after this

[@dsimms561]

Looking at loopers. Overwhelmed by the options and price ranges. Is the Donner a good beginner pedal? it works in price for a Social security guy

[@arlo2203]

your fingernail is looking much better. 👌 nice vid.

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks! It’s coming along!

Looping is by far the most fun way to practice by yourself.

[@sicko_the_ew]

Might be a while before I go looping, but good to be ready for it if I get round to it one day, so thanks. You might enjoy the lyrics of the latest *Guided by Voices* (as well as the song, of course). *Dance of Gurus* (is not really about gurus at all - more like contemporary realities) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHSQYaOHj56JqqM (I could also mention that Iron Maiden is back, but you've probably heard that already?)

[@carolgebert7833]

I just got the same pedal. I discovered as a beginner, it is hard to use the drum machine and looper simultaneously.

[@marcsullivan7987]

No! I have this looper and it super easy. You have to press the button on the middle and sync the loops Not only will they then play together, but it also makes it’s non-issue to stop the loop in the exactly right moment to be in time. It will automatically be “quantized” and be in time

[@globalnova]

Mimi at nayyum huh. Go boi.

[@r.rodriguez4991]

Why does everybody use the pentatonic scale for everything?

[@rushville9693]

Sup!

[@RANDOG1951]

I bought a twin Rowin Looper. $63 bucks. It didn't work with my windows 10 PC. They didn't respond when I asked for help. eBay got my money back. Tried to trash the software and the squirrel got inside my PC and won't get out. I'll look into the Donner again.

[@whiskeymike8010]

😂🙂🙃

[@richlight]

Awwe just seen Andreas video about moving. Kind of the end of the last years era Kinda sad man.

[@Sandman60077]

I feel like looper pedals are kind of obsolete now, unless you're one of those musicians that does live looping performances. Most of us use DAW's that do the samething and are a lot easier to use.

[@seandaniel23]

I’ll talk more about this on a QA soon!

[@norris6495]

My dad though me how to play catfish

[@colincannings7946]

Hi, you might be able to hear the loop playing. However, in this video all I hear is that the guitar is to loud, I cant hear the loop.

[@alvinuselton912]

I think if you had lizzy’s long dark hair you would look a lot like glen fry

[@seandaniel23]

I’ve actually been told that before.

[@alvinuselton912]

@@seandaniel23 I could really see it especially when you have that serious concentration look the way Glen was
