tc electronic Ditto Looper 4-stars Reviews

Simple

There's nothing much to say about TC Eletronic's Ditto Loop Pedal.

Keeping it simple seems to be its guideline. There's nothing fancy about it, which makes it extremeley easy to handle.

There are only a few facts I'd like to critisize. One is, that there is no option to run it on battery power, which is understandable due to the size, but would have been nice anyways. Other than that, I sometimes also get the feeling that there is a drop of volume of the loop against the normal signal, which could maybe be disturbing playing a gig.

All around, the TC Electronic Ditto is a cheap and easy to learn introduction into the world of loops.

TC Electronic Ditto

The Ditto from TC Electronic is a small looper for the average guitar player, it is very simply structured and only got one footswitch and one poti. The switch controlls the looping function and the poti the volume or the "loop level".

The quality of the case and the components is very good and the ditto looks like he is unbreakable.

Now to the sound, from my experience on the ditto just takes your signal and send it to the amp without any changes. And thats, for a looper, the most important point ! Therefor the sound is very good, but there are a few negative points at the handling and the features. The looper indeed sounds very good but the handling is a bit hard with only one switch, you need to have a very good timing to do a good loop and you do not have the option to make more than loops and overdubs, there are no more features, well but this is the choice of everyone himself if you need this features or not.

Give it a try, all in all it´s a very nice and simple looper with a good sound and not many features.

Usefull practice looper

Very easy to use looper !

The simplicity of its design, however, limits its use. The more loops you overdub, the less you can hear the first ones. While it is not "damaging" for practice purpose, it surely is for live performance.

A good jamming and soloing training device.

Good looper in a small package

It has now been over 6 months since i first started using my TC electronics ditto looper, and it is still a very enjoyable tool to have. I find it easy to operate, although it needs some time getting used to the one single button which controls all the features with different types of double-taps etc. If you plan on using it in a live situation, and not just as a toy for your practicing, be sure to memorize the controls of the button well. I have failed to turn the loop off in front of an audience because of I forgot to double-tap and hold to turn it off.

Simply put, it is a great looper, which, once you get to know it, has loads of features in a tiny package, is great fun and an inspiring tool/toy for your everyday practice or gigging.

fab for blues beginners

Great for beginners to blues,,,u can lay down a 12 bar and solo over it,,,u hear how bad your rhythm playing is and improve it

Excellent but not perfect.

I was very excited when TC Electronic released the Ditto. I had been waiting for a simple looper for years. It appears to be well built and is extremely simple to use. I only wish they had made it big enough to accommodate a second switch for stopping the playback though. That would be much more comfortable than double-clicking, especially in applications where sudden stops are required. And I would gladly sacrifice the true bypass for a quieter switch. Other than that, it's a great inexpensive looper that is easy to use and has an excellent sound quality that is good enough for studio applications.

TC Electronic Ditto Review

This pedal is a smart buy for frequent players. If your laying down backing tracks for solo playing or just adding loop after loop its an easy to use, reliable pedal. The single stomp system can be slightly frustrating, but compared to other loopers on the market,and the is value for money, this is an excellent pedal.

Ditto.

Great for gigs, just press button once on verse before lead break, press again and the backing you just recorded comes along for you to do your lead guitar break over.

Also good for practicing lead guitar riffs and licks, simply load your loop chord progression onto the ditto in a few seconds, then practice lead break variations all day long.

Man its great at e125 and well capable of doing all you need.
