Here's something I do with a looper. To practice learning the FORM of a song, record the MELODY first. For metal guys that might mean play the dweedley-dweedley bits to a metronome. Then practice playing the HARMONY (the chords, the rhythm guitar part) over that. Normally we think of working the other way around, lay down the rhythm part, then solo on top. Reverse that and it usually reveals some weak spots in your arrangement that you wouldn't have known about otherwise. It also allows you to use your musician skills to fit the rhythm section TO the soloist. That's what a good improv solo should be - the rhythm section supports and outlines the soloist. Practicing it the other way round makes the soloist the one who must stylistically adjust so as not to clash with the accomplish. Thanks Huge Arms Guitar Guy - Lumpy

[@LDellosa]

I knew you looked familiar - I remember seeing one of your older 7 string reviews when you had shorter hair. Production quality has improved so much since then, keep up the great content!

[@GuitarMAXMusic]

Thanks Lou! Yeah, I've considered taking those old videos down because they're so painful to watch now! Thanks for sticking around!

[@TheRosswise]

NO!!! Don't take those videos down, I used one of them to rebias my Bugera 1990.

[@ljuky]

I have this looper and it does the trick pretty good. It takes a little time to get in the hang of the way to manipulate the pedal, but it's great after that. In my own experience, sometimes you have to check the power connection just to make sure the pedal is getting power, cause I had a few occasion where I would not get the sound out of my amp and it was because the power cable got out of the connection without being visible. Also, a great use for a looper pedal is when you are looking for a certain tone, you can put it at the beginning of you pedal chain and record a part and after that do all the nice things to your pedals and amp to get the desired tone without any need to play the same part over and over again.

[@montysvest]

that's the most ingenious thing i have ever read... i mean seriously I'd have never of thought of that

Hey man, I love your channel, I just wanna add that you can run this little pedal off a 9 volt battery, it just requires a cheap cable I personally bought off AliExpress, this takes the connector/power supply end for the pedal on one side, then has a 9V battery connector on the other end. I bought a high capacity 9V (2000 mah) off AliExpress as well to power this little guy. Anyway, please keep posting, love your vids, cheers.

[@GuitarMAXMusic]

Thanks for the comment. Have you been able to power this specific pedal that way? Reason I ask is that I tried to do that, and it didn't work. I tried 2 different cables of the style that you're describing. It only seemed to work with the adapter. Could be just me though.

[@markopalikko6986]

Should work fine, could have been polarity issue.

[@lobitome]

Center negative is probably what the problem was. I made a custom adapter for a 9v battery with center negative instead of normal center positive, and it works still more than 2 years later. The 10 minute and unlimited overdubs makes ot a LOT nicer than a more expensive looper that only allows 5 minutes.

[@mojojojo3411]

This brudduh has all the gains. I keep trying to listen to his words, but mind keeps getting hypnotized by dem swollllll arms.

[@graeme1744]

I have brought this pedal after this video and it works perfectly. Make sure you have a decent 9 volt power supply or you will get a hum as I found out. Brought a new power supply and its perfectly works.

[@AxelAlexK]

Good review, just bought one of these yesterday. My 2nd pedal ever. I needed a looper to record a song for a youtube video. Not to mention it'll be great for practicing improv. Figured why not just buy the cheapest one if it works and has all the features I need.

[@AxelAlexK]

Coming back years later to this video just to say this looper has held up wonderfully, I've stomped on it constantly all these years and I still use it. I am considering upgrading to a boss RC-1 however, because I want the loop display and larger footprint.

[@lone-wolf-1]

Got this one. It's a surprizingly good little thing, nice for practice at home, and having fun! I record with it backingtracks from my MP3-player thru the amp, and then play over it. Great review, Max, as allways!

[@territorio_salvaje]

good idea! did you find any other way to put your backing tracks into the SD, and use it with the looper. only? (i think it isn't possible, but.. who knows!).. Thank you Guitar MAX for the review and all those good samples :)

[@lone-wolf-1]

@@territorio_salvaje Don‘t know or use other methods, I just download backing tracks from YT, transfer them on my MP3 player. Plug it into the „aux in“ of the combo and record one selected backing track onto the looper. I jam over it and may delete the last layer(s) if not to my liking, to try again. I’m leaving the backing track as first layer. I also bought a cheap Mikrofone for fun experiments: adding sounds to the track made with my voice or with some items (bottle, whistle, harmonica, electric violin….etc)

[@territorio_salvaje]

That's the best way, you're right!@@lone-wolf-1 By the way, i'm using it with batteries (both 9V and 9.6V ), just keeping in mind the right polarity (negative at center). Very funny toy!!

[@lone-wolf-1]

@@territorio_salvaje So yeah, everybody does something else to fulfill their needs. As for batteries- I don't like the hustle and the costs and unreliability of them. So I plugged all pedals in via daisy chain in a high Ampere power supply. Just to keep in mind that for the needed ampere power of the supply, you just add up the ampere written on the pedals. Easy for me, because I use only four pedals (EH Metal Muff, Donner Giant Metal , Marshall Jackhammer and Ammoon looper) and one multi effect (Line6 POD 2.0)

[@ghostownaproach]

A great way to practice is record a song all the way through and then play a lead Melody over it like an instrumental version. I have that pedal and love it.

[@jeremiahdonnelly9924]

can you record multiple layers ?

[@ghostownaproach]

@@jeremiahdonnelly9924 yes! While it is in playback mode just push the button once and it goes into record mode while continuing to play your previous recording so now you are adding to the first recording. You step again to end that recording and step again to begin recording again. Step twice quickly to stop playback and step and hold to erase

[@richardjacob4515]

Does it connects to another processor also ...for ex if I wanna change the tone ..or it vl only stay on the looper?

[@ghostownaproach]

@@richardjacob4515 you can use effects pedals with it by linking them first so whatever effects you want are added to the signal and recorded in the looper. Or put the effects after the looper so they can be switched off if you want but the looper still has the recording. And the looper has a volume control that changes how loud the recording is compared to your guitar playing

[@richardjacob4515]

I have a RP 55 guitar processor ...so..can it be used .?.it has an output ....an input ..a control in ..and an adaptor jack

Decent pedal if you make sure to completely forget that that USB port even exists. Mine worked flawlessly for about 5 or 6 months until I decided to plug it into my computer to save a loop I really liked. Last thing it did before it died, and I've read I'm not the only one.

*Thank you, Maxxxwell, for recommending this great little looper pedal!* I've been agonizing over what to put in my first pedal board. My dream board runs over $600, which is way over my current budget. Thanks to your discount code, I got this looper for under $35 on Amazon-so, I'm off to a great start! Have you seen the *Donner Harmonic Square* octave pedal? For about $45, it has a lot of nice features. It's not as cheap as the Behringer UO300, but it's more versatile and may work better. An octave pedal would be great for laying down a bass line on this looper. You'll make a one-man band out of me yet, Sir Maxxxwell. Thanks again!!! P.S. You made a subscriber out of me in one video. :)

[@GuitarMAXMusic]

Hey Fred! Awesome! There really are some incredible pedals and basement prices these days. I'll look into that Donner pedal! Rock on.

[@martinkrauser4029]

I have this looper for playing on the street, and I lay the bass tracks down with a Zoom MS-CDR70. It's a multieffect unit the size and construction quality of a regular Boss pedal. It has a very good pitch shifting effect that made a few production pros go "whoah, I did not expect that" when engaged for the octave down. It costs around a $100, which is 2.5x times the Donner, but it will also work for chorus, delay, and reverb. My board for street work has a few Donners on it, but I don't think their digital pedals are much good, so I'd recommend against the Harmonic Square. If you really want a single mini pedal for octave, the Mooer Tender Octaver is very good.

So basically you can record a whole rhytm track for a song on guitar (as long as you nail it in one take), then add a leadguitar/overdub track and then move the file to your computer? If that's the case then this seems like a great pedal for making rough demos that you can send to your drummer/singer etc when writing songs.

[@GuitarMAXMusic]

Yep! You can do up to a ten minute track on this looper, so you could probably even knock out a couple song ideas in one shot.

[@Secretarian]

I have had this pedal for almost a year. It is a great practice tool - really allows you to see how good your rhythm playing is. I like to plug my acoustic electric into it, record an acoustic rhythm track, and then plug my electric into the pedal and put lead lines over top of the acoustic rhythm track. Only drawback - about every three months it goes brain dead, power off and on doesn't clear it, so I hook it up to the computer and download a previously saved loop to it and then its fine. I bought this one because it was the cheapest at the time - I think it's identical to the higher priced Donner and Rowin nano pedals.

[@industrialfansettolow8313]

Secretarian Wait so you mean it just gives up after a few months? Like it runs out if space or something? If so that sucks...

[@Secretarian]

Kory Ladd no it just stops responding to inputs, i.e. the foot switch won't start/stop or clear it, cycling the power on/off doesn't do anything. Uploading a saved loop to it from the PC seems to reset it and then it's fine. It has happened about 3 times in the year that I've had it, and it gets almost daily use.
