Ditto X2

Got this after seeing a guy use one in local open mic. The ease of use was the thing he kept going on about, play click start and click end, It takes a bit to get timing right but strum a few bars then press on and again off. Simple after a while. A click track or metronome makes it easier if you timing is off. Once used for short time its a breeze. Output is very good on bypass and the extra reverse play,1/2 speed function useful for nailing a lick. Computer download function for practice is also cool addition. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles of some loopers but thats also its strength as ease of use is main strength. Highly recommend this unit.

Very useful, and versatile pedal

I have been playing for over 25 years and had never considered a looper until I got the TC Flashback delay and had a go with the looper setting on that. After watching some of the TC vids on youtube for the Ditto x2 I couldn't wait to get hold of one! There are some cool features with this like the reverse function, and half speed etc which have inspired me to try all kinds of stuff. The fact that you can use the second footswitch to stop the loop with one tap is great, and far more natural than having to double tap when using it in a band situation

You can download loops via usb to the pedal to jam along with, which is a great practice tool.

Build quality is excellent..simple to use

Its got 5 mins of looping time, with endless overdubs!

I strongly suggest watching the youtube videos out there to really get an idea of what you can do with this, but straight out of the box it is very easy to set up and use..

Excellent looper!

The ditto x2 is one of the best loopers on the market. The dedicated stop switch is a big improvement on the original ditto and the additional reverse and half speed functions work brilliantly too. The only issue I had was that if you need to loop overdriven/distorted signals, a second amp would be advised to run in stereo, as the quality of the signal is affected with only one amp.

Cool looper!

The sound is really good, better than other loopers i tried, the digitalization doesn't make the instrument sound processed or less real. The only thing i miss is the posibility to quantize the rythmus once you have recorded your loop.

Ditto X2 = Twice The Fun

Already owned the little Ditto but had a need for dual inputs to let me run two signals so the Ditto X2 was the obvious choice. I have used quite a few makes of loopers over the past ten years, all with acoustic guitar and most of them coloured the sound to some degree or another but both Ditto loopers are very transparent with no perceivable loss of tone.

I missed the stop switch on the little Ditto so getting it back on the X2 was a real bonus. The reverse and half speed features are nice for noodling at home but the stop switch is almost essential for live use.

The two foot switches and one knob make it probably the easiest looper to use live.

I have no regrets buying this. 5 stars all round.

Simple and effective Looper

The TC Electronics Ditto x2 Looper is the big brother of the revolutionary TC Electronics Ditto Looper. The clear difference here is that they have added a second button to the format. The Looper has stereo/mono ins/outs and is powered by a standard 9 volt Boss style power supply. I use it with the T-Rex Chameleon without any issue.

The second button is what sold it for me. You have the choice of the second button being a dedicated stop/erase button or to use a couple of different effects (reverse and 1/2 time). I use it as a dedicated stop button. While the original is lovely, I find it easier to use a stop button.

The sound is 24 bit digital and is excellent. You are given a knob to control the level of the loop with straight up seeming like unity.

The one issue with the Ditto is that it is not great if you want to store loops and recall them in a live setting. While you can store loops, recalling is not simple. It is the perfect looper for someone like me that lays loops down live and then plays over them.

Highly recommended.
