tc electronic Ditto Looper 5-stars Reviews

Simple and effective

I bought this pedal to practice at home. Simple, well built, great sound quality in my opinion. Does not have many bells and whistles but does its job perfectly. It is a bit small so it needs to be placed on a flat surface. I would definitely recommend it!

amazing amazing amazing

I can't believe what this pedal can do for the price. Unlimited overdubbing and no degradation in the quality of my tone at all. The controls are easy enough to learn and i was comfortable with it within a day. I'll definitely be buying more of these pedals.

everything you'd hope for

does exactly as it says on the tin - no fuss looper with top sound quality. well made. simple, and even manages tens of loops with ease - clear distinction between loops. would buy another straight away if stolen or lost, simple as that

TC Electronic Ditto

Simplicity itself.Perfect on a gig for instant loops.Brilliant for practising.

Looping how it should be. Easy and intuitive.

Hey fellow musicians,

This review will be about the TC Electronic Ditto.

First things first:

I use it live, at jams and for myself. It is reliable and good sounding.

It is my first looper ever. I plugged it in and was familiar with it right away. No instructions necessary.

It is a natural way of composing and finding ideas. It definetly helped me with that.

Handling:

The handling is easy. The one-knob design simplifies everything. No unnessesary s*it. Just a tap button and volume knob.

Features:

Everything you will need. Enough record time for every need.

Personally I don't like 9v blocks, I take care of my pedals with daisy chaining/power supply. A missing place for battery is not a contra for me.

One thing that is not bad, but a bit sad from time to time: When you have made a great loop, there is no build in saving function. But this is no real con, because in these times, you can easily record nice loops with your smartphone or something else.

Sound:

Great. Nothing bad to say yet. Gets a bit loud with 8+ layers. No problem though.

Quality:

Nice and solid.

Overall this is a great tool for creative guitarist, who like to compose on the fly and easily.

I do recommend it! Give it a shot.

Enjoy music.

Fantastic Loop Pedal

As I've come to expect from TC pedals this is a great little loop pedal. My mates could not believe the small size of this great piece of gear. It is worth it for size alone.

To make loops that adhere rhythmically is always a hard task. The button on this pedal is very easy to switch quickly and you can create in-time loops with no dodgy tempo issues. Deleting loops and starting again is also very easy.

Sound quality is immense and you can loop layers upon layers for ages.

The volume of looped sound is controlled by the knob and is a very handy feature.

So simple, sounds great

Love this little pedal, sounds great, very simple to use. I like to set a loop then go and listen to the guitar sound through the front of house. Even on a gig where I don't need the looper, I don't mind having it on the pedalboard as it's so small and light.

Simple and effective

Finally someone created a looper that you can just turn on and use. Thank you TC!

The simplicity is really the big selling point for this pedal. If you want something that you can use without fiddling with a bunch of knobs and that you don't need to read a long manual in order to use then definitely get this.

A tiny looper.

Before I bought this, I had never even tried looping. I mainly bought it to be able to do some drone, but it turned out to be way more versatile than that.

The box is tiny, it's even smaller than I thought the pedal would be, and this thing literally can't NOT fit on your pedal board. It is tiny.

Looping in itself takes i little bit to wrap your head around, but once you do, it's the easiest thing ever. If you start your loop on the first beat, just press the switch when the first beat should start repeating. Removing and adding overdubs is a breeze, and literally anyone could do this.

The weight of this thing seems just right. It's not so light that you fear breaking it, but it's just heavy enough to sit good on your board. The switch has a very special feel to it, almost linear with a tiny audible click once it switches. This could feel weird at first, but it is really good to help you be perfectly on beat. I've been told most TC electronic switches are like this though, some like it, others don't. For me it works fine, and there isn't really any fear of breaking the switch.

The knob could possibly be called a bit plastic-y, but I can't really complain. It works for what it is intended, and gives a good grip. The LED comes in handy to know in what mode you are if you ever lose touch with the outside world.

In general it is a great tool to help you develop as a guitar player. Want to try out a new scale? No problem. Want to make noise? No problem. This is perfect to keep you on time, to practice lead stuff and to just jam out an amazing riff.

my new little friend

The TC Electronic Ditto Looper is a nice little gadget for jamsessions with yourself.

This pedal comes with only one control know, used for the Loop Level and a bypass button. Having just this knob and the bypass button makes its use quite simple. Recordings as well as the stop and deleting of these loops is made by the bypass button. These are the only possibilities offered by this pedal, but it is definitely enough for practice or fixing quick ideas. With its small size it fits perfect in every guitar bag and does not take much space on your pedalboard. Definatley a nice little gadget for quick loop ideas.

It just works

It does what it says on the tin - really simple to use and great quality. I would have liked to record from the usb port, but that's what the ditto 2 buys you I guess.

recommended - especially at the price.

the simplest looper pedal you can have

It's a really easy to use. One knob for the output level. One footswitch for controlling the pedal.

5 minutes recording time, it's enough for almost every song, i think.

you can make unlimited numbers of loops.

great for practice at home, you can easily make song structures and solos with this pedal.

Good

This small thing is a great loop pedal, great quality and sound. Is very easy to use and allows me to play alone without the need of another guitarist, also is very small so you can take it with your everywhere.

Small and handy

General:

The ditto is a very fine looper.

With its true bypass it does not interfere with the sound.

You can do any number of loops as long as you stay within a five minute time frame.

Product design:

The ditto has a solid metal housing.

Its switch is very easy to press but it takes a while to get used to its functions.

Only one switch for all functions result in:

1 press: start recording

1 press: stop recording and start looping

2 press: stop loop

As it is too small to fit a battery in it you need a power supply.

Verdict:

I can definitely recommend this product.

There are no unnecessary switches or buttons. Everything is as simple and functional as possible.

And last but not least: It simply sounds great.

Great pedal

Really excellent pedal loop. Simple to use with a robust feel and integrates perfectly with my G system. I use this pedal every day now. That's perfect as a practice tool, if you loop some chords and jam over it.

I really advise this little pedal, you'll get addicted to it?

Amazing and simple!

The Ditto is easily the best looper I've tried. Simple, working, small and durable.

It´s really easy to use and because of it´s small size you can fit it to almost any pedalboard. It has all the options you need: rewriting, unlimited loops and 5 minutes of looping time.

Recommend!

I would buy it again!

I bought the looper because I practice alone. The operation is really very simple. Unfortunately, no AC adapter is included. The sound quality is excellent in my opinion. The case looks very stable. I would buy it again.

My favourite pedal!

The one pedal you'll buy that might actually improve your playing

Fantastic Looper

What a fantastic product from TC. It's a no nonsense looper with all the craziness and complications removed. It is so easy to use, the sound quality is excellent. Ture Bypass. 5 minutes of loop time. Unlimited Overdubs. Undo and Redo functions.

For some people it may lack features, not for me. If you want to try a looper, try this, you will be amazed.

TC Electronics now have a Ditto 2 out, that may suit someone who craves more features. One more thing, it's the cheapest looper on the market.

10/10.

Pure and simple!

I was looking for a straight forward looper without any drum machines and a ton of other features that ends in an expensive device. The Ditto looper features everything you really need and the handling is also very easy - one footswitch, one level-knob - that's it. You can record a 5 minute loop and do an infinite amount of overdubs. The undo/redo feature is also very useful.

Overall there is only one looper in that pricerange and I can really recommend to try it out!
