Best Loop Pedal For Guitar (2024 Update)

For a compact looper pedal this has, great features. The deal breaker is the circular led panel. While this pedal functions in a basic way the led tells you exactly what is happening and where you are in you loop. That knowledge makes me far more confident to use it live. You can end the playback and erase the loop silently or pause the playback and use it again – useful if a lead break is later in the song. You record the rhythm part, pause it and start it later on in the song. There options for adding extra pedal to control things but I found I got on OK without them. Basically a solid looper with a useful display that is, easy to read in a live situation. The trick to silently erase is to double tap and hold the second tap. Stops instantly and the erases a couple of seconds later – this isn't clear in the instructions.David M.

High value and quality! Maybe not for the touring professional who needs every bell and whistle, but for beginners or intermediates it's a really solid feature set and great quality at a price point that is just a hair over the price of some much more basic units. Spend the extra $20 and get a pedal you'll love! Loopers are super fun, this one is no exception. There is a learning curve but that's more on the player than the pedal. (If your timing/coordination are not on point, a looper, like any recording method, will really highlight that.) Would highly recommend to anyone interested in a looper for fun, creativity, practice, comping, improving over your own backing, even for pro use if you don't need the fanciest bells n' whistles.Steverino

I have rarely relied on a loop machine in my 33+ years of performing music. I've had a DigiTec JamMan for a long time but found it too difficult to co-ordinate short phrases into a piece. I used it more with sampling of ambient sound than musical phrases. I've only had the Boss RC-500 for a short time but already find it much easier to use. I haven't even experimented with the percussion aspects but I can see great possibilities. I'm a great fan of Boss and Roland. They make quality , well thought out, aids for musical expression. What a creative company they are, indeed!Ralph

Have not used it live yet. Still getting friendly with it. There are a lot of rhythm patterns to choose from but many of them are very similar. Some of the functions I would have thought would be accessible through MIDI are not, but there are ways to work around most of them. Overall it seems like a great unit for a moderate price. The sound quality is very good. One disappointment is that I had the impression you could download rhythm patterns to replace the ones you don't care to use – you can't download them as rhythms, only as backing tracks. Look for the reference manual (not the owners manual) and study it before you buy if you have specific expectations.Glenn K

I decided to buy a looper last year to use primarily for practice, and for easily capturing ideas and riffs. I settled on the Boss RC-1 and it performed great. The biggest limitation was only being able to capture one idea at a time. I started looking around for something with more memory locations and I found the RC-5 as an upgrade. I am blown away by the included drums and the device's ability to determine the tempo. As a tool for capturing multiple ideas and being able to back them up to a PC, this is perfect. I haven't tested the midi capability yet. I could easily see using this in an actual performance in the future. It's pedalboard-friendly size makes it very easy to carry around.Joe G

Nothing is perfect so a 5-star rating on most anything isn’t very useful without critical review when trying to make a purchase decision so I would give it 2.5 stars if I could. The Trio+ concept was a good idea but in my view poorly executed and way over priced. Like many have already said, it is not generally easy to get a good result from the Trio+ Even after a few weeks of getting to grips with its functions. It’s hit and miss mostly when using it and mostly miss. “Sometimes” you can get “fairly decent“ results after multiple attempts but often the result is unusable. Their SDRUM product while not a looper provides better drum/bass accompaniment with much less fuss, is much easier to use and less expensive. The SDRUM coupled with their JamMan looper is far more intuitive and provides usable good results most of the time. I own both products and I use the SDRUM almost always instead of the Trio+. The trio+ just doesn’t live up to its cost or hype. Sometimes it works ok but just ok. If you get the results you want then maybe it’s for you but in my view I couldn’t in good faith recommend it to a friend so I definitely would not rec to a stranger. My advice is to get an SDRUM and if you need it get Digitech’s stand alone Looper to sync with it. That combo isn’t perfect either but far more satisfying and predictable to use. I do not recommend the Trio+ to anyone.Dennie

Wanna jam? No other players around? This dingus provides a competent backing band to solo or compose over. This gizmo does it all. Loop a phrase, play over it, start the band, and start on your extended musical forays. As satisfying a pedal as I've ever encountered. I've coveted owning this since the product debuted many years ago.Lou P.

Very easy to use and built like a tank. I had to watch a few demo videos to learn how the controls worked and interacted but it didn't take but a few minutes. Playback quality is very good with tons of storage for created loops. My only issue is with what Boss calls "Drum Tracks". There's only 10 of them and their sound quality is piercing. You can load your own via the usb connection though. Also, it only stores wav files from external sources so converting songs you only have as mp3 etc. to wav is an extra step I could do without. I might just be nitpicking because otherwise it's a great looper with more features than most people will ever need. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.ethan1957

I bought this to compare to my ditto pedal. Its not nearly as simple to use, despite what people say. Okay, it might just be me, but the ditto is more intuitive to use. After you record the first loop, it automatically begins recording the overdub. With the ditto, it goes to pause when you complete a loop. So, yes, its a Boss pedal and built like a tank. But for me, its 50/50 with the ditto. You have to make your own decision about this one.jonaha650

Have been nothing but pleased with the Boss RC-1 loop pedal. I currently use it in conjunction with my Digitech RP1000 and it has really allowed me creative freedom while practicing. I bought this since the RP1000 only has a 20 second looping feature, while this one can go as long as I need. I like how you can easily layer riffs on top of one another, delete when you make mistakes, and stop altogether with just the stomp of the pedal. It's amazing. Nothing else to say. You will not be displeased.lmeach00

Having owned other loopers, I have always been frustrated by how they make you conform artistically to what they want to do. Not so with the RC300. This baby is pretty much fully customisable so you're only limited by your creativity…rather than by the looper! It's not obvious from the write ups on it but you can unsynch all the tracks if you wish, so recording verses, choruses, middle 8s, etc of different measures is not a problem at all. That's what I struggled with before but not now. It is pricey but it is very well built and the sound quality is A1. I'm glad I made the leap of faith and bought it! Cheers!Joe H.

This is by far the most useful looper I've ever owned. It's big, but it's very sturdy and it's pretty easy to get the basics down. I'm glad I bought and I have been gigging with it a lot so I haven't felt any buyer's remorse yet. You can also pretty much customize this thing to make it do exactly what you want it to do. I would've given this 4 1/2 stars if that were an option. I hesitated to give it 5 just because it was so expensive and also because the GUITAR>BASS function is complete and total garbage. I was really hoping to use this to add basslines to my loops but it just ain't gonna happen. Those are the only cons I have ran into so far. This is much smoother and easier to use than the RC20XL and The older boss single pedal I used to have ( i cant remember the model right off) It's an excellent tool for writing and jamming at home. It's got lots of drumbeats and what not to jam to. Most are too cheesy to use live but they are fun at home. There's still lots to learn for me but I love it so far. Gator makes a bag that MF carries thats about thirty large that this thing fits in nicely. I bought it after a guy on youtube recommended for this pedal and he was right. You will definitely wants something to carry this thing in. It's big, heavy and expensive.JC

Great little looper. 12 minutes of saved material, up to 10 different loops. I got this so I can easily put down and save some ideas. It's perfect for that. I really enjoy the looper method of creating a song or a groove. I use my alesis sr 16 drum machine to loop percussion, then I use my ibanez 8 string for the guitar and bass parts. I love my little workstation. Sound comes out loud and clear through the 720. The ability to undo your last overdub is a must have.I don't really use the 1/2 time function, but the reverse function is pretty neat. Super solid mostly metal build quality, attractive graphics, easy to use, and a must have for my setup. For about twice the money, you can get the ehx 22500. That looper can store up to 32 gigs of loops on an sd card. It was a bit more than I needed, but if you need a step up from the 720, the 22500 looks like a great option.thegoodsoldier216

For the unit I received, I would only hear playback if the volume level was turned up to around 75% or higher on the unit; less than that, nothing…even with any of the amps or speakers I'd plug this into, turned up. I've tried recording it at different levels but still the same result with needing to crank it up for playback. But this may have been a defect on this unit. As for recording, you must be wary of the number of minutes/seconds available to record, because you only have 12 mins and it is divided among the number of banks (out of 10) that you're going to use (e.g. if you record a 2min loop in one bank, you will have 10mins left to share among the rest of the 9 free banks; and then if you record, say a 5min loop on another bank, you'll have 5mins left for the remaining 8 banks). Overdubbing on any one bank is unlimited though and does not use any additional memory. You can also undo/redo the last overdub if you didn't like it. Now it's a bit tricky getting the timing of your "stomp" precise to where it would playback seamlessly. There is a noticeable gap between the end and beginning of the loop during playback (apparently a common complaint/issue from other online sources). The switch is pretty high and that may contribute to its difficulty of getting a seamless loop. After several attempts, you can easily go from being excited to get home and practice on a loop to being demotivated and annoyed. Guitar Center is awesome with their return policy, and I had no trouble returning the unit. Well, I went ahead and got a Jam Man solo XT instead which has more bang for the buck because of features like 10mins of loop time PER bank (it has, i think, 99 banks available), expandable memory with a microSD, can connect to computer via USB. It has NO GAP between the loops due to the lower profile switch/pedal so no loss in motivation at all, you just wanna keep on playing! I also wanna mention that the XT was $10 cheaper at the time of this review. Never looked back 🙂KoiaTo

This actually works excellent. BUT, look up specs of 1440 first ….as….I am upgrading to the 1440….as the one shot button, and double length recording time….I really need. Sound is excellent. Should be very last pedal in effects loop. Then, all sound and effects will be recorded, AND, your overdubs can have 100%, its own sound (channel, effects, volume). I have all front end drive effects on EHX silencer looped. My effects loop pedals are also on a EHX silencer, in it's loop. Zero background idle noise, with amp master volume at 3 O'clock…and channel volumes at 3 O'clock. I adjust actual volume with an Ernie Ball 25kOhm VPjr, at the end of the effects loop, after the EHX silencer, output.Orbit Zenz**Jagg Rocker

My first loop pedal, so I can't really compare the Nux with others, but it seems pretty good to me. It could use more foot pedals so that some of the push-button functionality could manipulated while you're playing, but there's an option to connect another pedal anyway, so that's covered really. Pretty easy to use. Seems solid. Has a pretty good sound quality. Only thing I dislike would be the simplicity of the drum tracks, but I didn't really buy it for that. In all it's pretty great value. I did a lot of searching, and this has a lot for the price. Especially like the enormous record capacity with 99 presents you can save to. I'd recommend it.jamesingl0

This is heaps of fun to use – easy, foot switch is very fast (microswitch), sturdy casing – I wouldn't stomp on it too hard because I reckon the microswitch could wear eventually, but it's definitely a quick pedal. Came with a battery so you can try it out straight away. Nice and tidy, I really like this pedal. I don't regret it at all. Time for some fun!psylink2008

I did not utilize it to its full power but what I did use so far works good. It's a must have item if you mostly play alone.elic3000

I really like it, the sound quality is great has a ton of options and features and many customization abilities. In the back of the unit you have a lot of different inputs and outputs which is great you can connect many of your instruments and pro sound system as an output.Anonymous

I've had an Rc505 for a year or so now and was excited to get my hands on this RC600. The floor setup is great, although you can't quite do everything with your feet. With a shoe off you can do most of the functions with a toe, but you still have to bend over to mess with it. The included drum loops in this are a massive upgrade from the RC505. Tons of character and room to play around with there – even settings for fills etc at the end of loops. I've only had this two days, so I'll update my review after some more time with it, but so far I feel like it sounds better, the extra instrument and mic inputs are a huge boost, and overall it's been pretty easy to use coming from the 505.Sterling

Early days but, so far, I love it. I already have a Ditto Stereo, so I knew what to expect. This was really bought for the 'stop' and 'fade' functions for live performance, but I really like the ways that the two loop functions can be used together. The real test will be when I get a chance to use it for a gig.Reviewed by Andertons Music Co.

Does everything you want from a high quality loop pedal, and a bit more. Basic compared to some of the more complex pedals out there, but having what is basically two high quality single loop pedals in one that can play in parallel or series gives you so much more scope for creativity in your loops.Reviewed by Andertons Music Co.

I truly love the design of this product, don't get me wrong. But the dedicated stop switch is lacking. You have to double tap the stop to truly stop the loop, otherwise it plays until the end of the loop phrase and THEN stops. For a pedal advertised as "the guitarists looper" it seems more geared towards being midi synced with a sequencer, which is great if you overlook the fact most guitarists are unfamiliar with midi and are usually uninterested in using drum machines and sequencers. As a veteran looper, I realize the biggest problem is making loops on time. I've gotten pretty good at looping on time, but the occasional live screw up is still pretty hard to avoid l.With my boss rc20 I would simply record the entire verse, press stop instead of play when I get to the chorus, and solo over the verse after the chorus section, effectively avoiding off time loops altogether by never reaching the actual end of the phrase where the sort of "sound seam" of a loop is, which is always totally noticable if you're not perfectly on time. With the Ditto x4 it instead of incorporating a true dedicated stop, Tc electronics assumed everybody has a metronome sequenced to their looper and designed the stop to work such as that of a sequencer. This is a pretty unbelievablly stupid move in my opinion,considering this pedal is geared towards guitarists, not EDM DJs. I'm not your average guitarist, so I actually am interested in its midi applications. I'm not saying it isn't a neat idea to have midi sync on a pedal, but the pedal shouldn't revolve around that feature. I've been working on finding ways around the lack of a true dedicated stop, like getting good at double tapping on time. Pretty annoying to have to do when the thing has four buttons. Also, they should have made one of the effects simply a dedicated "undo" function. But the design? Perfect. Perhaps they could issue a software update to fix some of the bugs. I would be really happy with TC Electronics I'd they did.Bloth Wood

Excellent product, very easy to use, sounds great and is not expensive. I recommend this looper especially to beginners, Thank you Lekato for a great product.remin1911

I've recorded my bands music since the '70's with reel to reel,8 track,cassette and 16 track equipment and overdubbing and syncing was a total nightmare. I really didn't expect much out of it just wanted to try it so I wouldn't have to play alone.It blew me awaythe first day I filled all the memory up in a matter of 2 hours. So I'm out in the garage just having a good time and I take a break. My wife comes out with 3 beers and looks around for the other person.Told her it was this little pedal and she could not believe it. Shes seen me through the years fighting with recordings and said don't ypu wish you had that 50 years ago.The pedal is accurate and easy to figure out and rather cheap but cost me a small fortune whn I went out and bought a new guitar to play and record with it!2014cuyl

me = 30+ years making music and 10+ years using hardware and software loopers this thing is fabulous! the ability to split output signal to guitar cab / full range for optimal sound quality is huge! I am running the loop channel of the RC-10R in the effect loop of my guitar amp and the rhythm channel out to a KC-600 keyboard amp. sounds good to me. nice layout, solid feel to the knobs, and the standard built-like-a-tank boss pedal construction. easy to navigate the relatively simple menu system plus easy to operate the pedal once you've spent a little time with it. the rhythm tracks sound good and perform as advertised. I dialed up a funky boogaloo rhythm, recorded a rhythm part loop, then lost myself in a lydian improv for about a half hour when I first got down with it. works for me! a review of the midi implementation shows that it will play well with my other midi gear or computer rig if I decide I want to go there with it. the ability to import my own loops will quickly have me jamming to tracks that are truly of my own taste and the included rhythm tracks are what they are expected to be: a simple and solid representation of many musical genres. I do have a wish-list item that could possibly be addressed in a software update: it would be nice to be able to choose whether sync'ed loop recording begins immediately after the count-in (this is how it behaves now) or waits for a pedal touch punch-in to begin recording the quantized loop (this would be nice). all-in-all I am very happy with this looper and am impressed by what roland and boss have been putting out recently. to me they've always been a company that really understands what musicians want and what I've seen lately across their product lines is really, really impressive. my compliments to all the good people at roland/boss that are making these cool products happen for us.MattD

This thing is great!! Syncs automatically with the push and hold of the rhythm switch! So easy to use. I don't know what these other reviews are doing but this thing is a God send for guitarist. So many beats to choose from. You can pick from 16 different drum kits to play them! 808+909 sounds too! Every a reverb for the drums. The looper is Boss. So you it's good. 6 hours is what you get. 99 slots to save loops. It has a 2 loop/rhythm function that makes it so you have a 2 part loop. More like a song then just a loop. The fills are a littler boring/mechanical. Only 2 per patch. Can use drum machine alone without a recorded loop. Just to jam. Or, just the loop for acoustic stuff etc…. I'm buying a second one for my electric board! Ditched my BB and Rc5. This Rc10r just syncs better then the bb and Rc5. It's a better package for me. Smaller too! I cant say enough about this thing. Buy one NOW!! You will become a better player GUARANTEED!!!William

This is a neat product, i wanted the bigger model for the 5 channels , but in the middle of lock down the 202 was all that was avaliable to purchase without having to wait, however… The 202 is a brilliant piece of kit , does exactly what it says on the tin and with the help of youtube tutorials i was making some interesting beats ! Reasonable price too. Im still going to get the bigger version, and simply link it to the 202 and have 7 channels. Well designed and simple to use, pmt have never failed to deliver in the 20 or so years ive been using them. My 1st choice for music products. Boss is a reliable brand . The 202 looper is ideal to make beats fast. Im particularly impressed with the " guitar to bass effect, which simply turns your guitar in to a bass guitar, but even more impressive that that, it turns your vocal into a bass guitar! Brilliant fun and extremely useful. Very happy customer 😁. Ps the sound quality is brilliant. Especially when using a DAW and playing vst instruments directly through the 202 looper. Hook up a midi keyboard and build a track in minuets using real instrument sounds. Impressive stuff from boss 👌🏼Mitchell T.

Very similar to the Ditto Plus, I personally have to have 2 stomp buttons on a loop pedal. Ditto,Electro Harmonics,and this MXR Clone looper would be my 3 picks for good loop pedals. Had this one for 2 days and really like it so far, I have been playing for 25 years, had tons of effects and consider this pedal very important on my pedal board, and loopers are a ton of fun along with being a great self gig tool. Great product so far!!Chuck

I grabbed one of these as soon as I was aware that MXR had brought a Looper to Market. The implementation of the half and double speed options + reverse using external tap tempo switch is a brilliant idea and works flawlessly. Expression pedal control for Loop volume is also a great feature and works perfectly. I was putting this thing fully through its paces in about 5 minutes without ever looking at a manual. Then I walked away for several hours with the looper powered on . On returning, the loop that was in memory had become a garbled, distorted digital mess. No controls would function on the pedal. A quick power off and it was back to normal. Use it for an hour, walk away for several…same thing. Ugh. My other Loopers don't exhibit any weird behaviour like this, you can leave them on for days on end. So, I returned it to my local GC and got a new one from the display case. Got it home and the green LED is dead and will not indicate playback. Ugh. Drove across town to another GC , picked up a third one. So far, this one isn't exhibiting any weird behavior, even after leaving it powered up for several days. If it proves to remain dependable, I would give this 5 Stars easily. I guess I better remember to send in that warranty! Even with the bugs (early batch problems?) this is an excellent looper at a great price point.KevMo

Very simple operation, but good list of functions. MXR pedals, like this one, are built like tanks and will last. I have had looper pedals that had too many features and as a result turned the joy of just playing into a complicated mental exercise and we all know what that does to the creative process. Two button operation makes this pedal just right for recording multiple layers of loops. Easy to remove the last take if you are not happy and want to do it over. Thoughtful feature that gives you a count in so you know when to start playing.KyMusic

Love the pedal, simple to use and straightforward and jam over it all the time… only problem is now I run a stereo set up and this is a limiting factor for me with the Strymon BS and DD-8 both having steep outputs… will likely upgrade to a Boss looper in the near future for this reason. Wicked for someone to learn looping on.Jack D.

Initial troubles with connecting to a computer, turns out it was my faulty USB cable (NU-X responded fairly quickly to me – which was good). However, the audio converter software from the NU-X website will not open on a Mac with Catalina as the Mac cannot verify the developer. You have to go into your Preferences and change your security settings to open the software. After that – OK. I'm still experimenting with the unit so I cant comment on that, but a list of the in-built rhythms (style, emphasis on '2' etc.) would be handy.Brendan Robb

Ive used a good few lopper pedals before and this thing does it all with alot more style. The visual feed back Im getting form this looper is incredible it totally changes the looper pedal game. I noticed even with the stage fog on at fullblast I can see the screen very well. The color coding makes it easy to follow what Im doing at each moment. The screen is what allows the Aeros to combine paralel and sequential looping styles so well so its a huge plus. Using 6×6 mode is like having 6 loopers synced together all in one. Dont even get me started with the hands-free mixing, its a dream!BandGuy4ever

I've have a few different loopers but this unit is like a recording studio that can quickly and easily recreate tracks that are in perfect sync. I have the Beat Buddy (drum pedal) that works in lock step with the Aeros. Can't say enough about this unit and the sound quality is excellent.Ger

This looper is incredible. I have it with the Beatbuddy, and I am basically a one-man-band now. Extremely intuitive and customizable. Would recommend to any serious musicianJoseph

This pedal was fairly cheap, and it does work, so I dont want to knock that part of it. However, The sound quality is terrible. I saw one review that said, after three or four layers of sound it starts to sound muddy. I feel that was an understatement. A single play back loop sounds muddy to me. Ill still use it to practice with, but Im not very impressed. Save your money, and buy a better quality looper.guitarded5150
