Hey everyone, the Looper X Video is out and you can watch it now here: th-cam.com/video/kFJ-Ia8IAGg/w-d-xo.html Pretty crazy everything this looper can do!
You're the most tech savvy artist out there! Applaud you for staying in the know! Takes a much time to learn the gear as it does to be creative... and you're editing video...damn man!
Thanks man, I sincerely appreciate that! I enjoy learning gear for sure… the editing is what takes forever lol, so I’m glad people are finding the videos helpful!
I love your reviews. You are to the point and very thorough, adding so much more detailed information in your videos than any other reviewer I have seen. I find myself skipping ahead in other videos to hurry up and "get to the point" in order to find what I need to know, often coming away with not much information about a product. But your videos I can watch without skipping because they are jam-packed with need-to-know information covering everything there is to know. It is so refreshing. Thank you.
Thanks Scott for another calm and concise demo and how to use tutorial. Did you ever do a video comparing loop length and times (mono vs stereo) of various loopers brands?
Thanks! And I don’t often do comparison videos. Mostly because I demo products in depth so people can decide which one has which features that fit their needs 🤘 so likely not
THANKS FOR A FANTASTIC REVIEW. I'd never heard of this looper before, and now I'm pretty sure I'm gonna end up getting it, just based on your video here alone!
hey Scott! such a fan of your channel! I literally started live looping because of your Lakato looper video! Since then I've done some full concerts and started a TH-cam channel of my own. I've had a few issues with the limitations of my little Lekato pedal, and so when I saw this video 8 months ago I've had my eye on upgrading to the Sheeran Looper Plus ever since. Well, long story short, my family pitched in for Christmas so that I could get it!!! I was a bit confused about the modes and how they worked, but since I knew that your channel was the very best place to come for that info, here I am again, and this video was perfect for what I needed...gonna use the sync mode for sure, along with a footswitch to switch between tracks without having to double tap! Let the fun begin!
Awesome man! I’m glad to hear that! Thanks for following the channel, and enjoy the new looper 🤘 it’s a pretty killer one and it works really well for how compact it is 🤘
Echoing and expanding on what others have said - your ability to constantly learn the operation of new devices and present them in details is amazing. I mean, sure, just *this* device isn't quite the console of an F-14, but it's complicated enough that I know I would have to keep a cheat card available for a while. But in the aggregate the stuff you've presented just since I've been watching (since I found your HX Stomp snapshots video) is a little bit mind boggling. The device itself is pretty cool, too. Much respect from FoCo.
Thank you! I personally do not think it’s very expensive at all for what it does. It’s built well and has a lot of great features with it. But thank you for watching and commenting 🤘🤘
Couple of points to add Scott. When you save a loop it remembers the foot control assignments which is handy if you save different modes of looping and want the pedals to do different things. The big issue I have with the looper is lack of volume control of your loops. If you load a loop into the machine you can't alter its volume like you can with a ditto+. Equally you can't alter loop volume on the fly when you have just recorded something so if you want something a bit more background then you have to play softer or sing quieter. Great video mate. 😊
Thanks man! And thanks for pointing these out. Like I mentioned at the beginning, it’s very interesting to see what everyone has for needs for loopers. For me personally I don’t need those, but some people it might be important. Thanks for commenting and helping people decide which one is right for them 🤘
Very comprehensive review, thank you! Apart from not having to worry about software glitches, it would still be hard to choose this over a loopy pro ipad setup for me. The flexibility over there is like sci Fi.
I really like this video. It would be totally awesome if you made a video on how you programmed your midi pedal. I have no clue and it's somewhat intimidating. Thanks
Something tells me they listened to far more musicians than just Ed when they designed this looper. The gain and volume meters are so important. I always struggle to get a decent mix with my regular looper, especially when using distorted/overdriven guitars. The only looper style pedal that comes close to having control over the separate volumes is the Digitech Trio+. But this is far better. Great review, thank you.
I might be tempted if I didn't already have several loopers and totally underuse them. But I appreciate the video because it's spurred me to hook one up and give it another go. Mahalo!
I would like to be able to send mic out separate to instrument ie L&R output so vox does not go to guit amp.

Great review, I think the best on YT. Thank you Sir, If you don't mind, I will make little similar (of course different) test in Polish language. Have you got link for software upgrade?
Hey Scott! Off topic (sort of), but have you looked at Loopy Pro yet? I would LOVE to see a video (or series) from you on this. Thanks as always for your videos!
Thank you so much for this great review, Have a question when you click on Stop all , it stop all tracks, so what happened when you click on pedal for restart the tracks? Does they restarted at the beginning?
Thank you so much for your video, it's really clear and useful! I didn't understand if it's possibile to clear A while B is playing or viceversa. Can you explain me better the clear mechanism? Thank you so much! What can I do if I want to clear completely one track and record a new part on it?
Attention anyone looking into loopers: this is really really easy to use and program…unlike the boss RC500 which is a total disaster. I played with the boss for 10 hours and watched dozens of videos and could not get it to function for me and as soon as I bought this looper I was functional within like 10 minutes. Sounds fantastic.
Would love to know how you're connecting your M Vave keyboard to your phone. Looking to add a synth and or drum pad option to my Sheeran Looper + setup.
Thank you for your tutorial! Is there a stop all and start all option for both tracks? Also which 4 button footswitches do you recommend instead of the TT2? I plan on ordering this today :)
To each his own I guess but for me, I just want a looping pedal that does the job of looping without all the other stuff. I don't want drums or effects that no one buys. I don't want to buy extra pedals just so it will work properly. I'm just getting used to this pedal but I'm psyched about it so far. The ability to serial loop with a guitar and microphone opens up a lot of possibilities. Double tapping to switch tracks is a drag but can be overcome by assigning the Encoder button to do that job (no need for an external pedal). I'd guess that Ed Sheeran had a list of very usable features that had to be met, even including things like it's weight and hefty foot pads. It's really built like a tank. Some of the other pedals I've used like the Ditto X4 has good sound quality, 2 separate track buttons (great feature) and a dedicated stop button (another good design ) but it won't take a mic and the lag when overdubing is just unacceptable. I have a older Boss RC30 which works well, is simple to use but the sound quality isn't very good and it won't serial loop. I tried the Boss RC500 which I believe will serial loop, has a mic input and great sound quality but gave up on it because it's just too complicated. It's just too easy to get into trouble. I rented one and almost went blind looking at the postage stamp size screen trying to fix it. Compared to all the other pedals I've tried, the Sheeran X Looper is a bargain and a solid tool for a gigging soloist.
Thanks for sharing! And this is exactly what I was talking about at the beginning of the video. Everyone has such a different goal/need in mind with looping especially. It’s extremely true with looping more than anything else I’ve reviewed. Thanks again for commenting
Given that the looper is really a sophisticated Boss RC30 you have to run 2 mics - one straight out to your speaker/mixer and the other into the looper. It helps to have a on/off switch on the looper mic.
Another excellent review! TY! However, I'm a simple guy and only an intermediate guitarist. I'll stick with my Boss RC-30. TBT, I'm using the simple looper on my Prime P1 more than the Boss. If I get better at looping, I might dust off the RC-30 as it has better features. Again, I really appreciate the review. Keep 'em coming!
@@ScottUhlMusic Any idea how that would work ? I’m assuming the imported drum loops would have to be assigned to one of the 128 memory slots. Would it be a case opening that, playing it on one of the tracks and then recording and overdubbing on the other whilst in sync mode ?
In Sync mode, when you stop a loop and only play the other channel’s loop, does it pause it or stop it. In other words, when you re-start the stopped loop does it re-start at the beginning of that loop, or did it pause and it re-starts from that paused point. I hope this question makes sense. I saw another reviewer talking about the larger version of this looper and they said it pauses and then re-starts from that paused point. If so, that wouldn’t work for what I do. I need loops to restart from their beginning point.
What if ( while in synce mode) you want to record drum thingy on a switch to b record back up track then play solo over everything but then stop b from playing and have a continue the loop beat?? can you stop one sync track while the other one continues..
My first show with this pedal was a success…. Your video going over the features helped me navigate without having to necessarily go to the manual😁!! I’m locked in now! Thanks
EXCELLENT video. I have one question Scott. I have been using that basic red Boss looper for years with a footswitch to allow me to stop it with one tap, but I want a 2 channel looper badly. I stop/start my looped beats often mid song, is that something you can do with one tap with this looper, assuming my beat is on track one? The double tapping is a no-go for me, I need one tap to start the looped beat and one to stop it in real time. Also, does this correct the meter/timing of your loops if they are slightly off? From your demo it almost seems like it does that.
It looks like there's no separate knobs to control your loop level, like the Boss VE8, Rc600 or RC500. Is that the case?. I see input level control,but no loop level control.
hi sorry for being annoying but i bought a midi keyboard from temu the smk 26 like the 1 you have bought and i cant seem to use it properly i would love if you could make a video about that and which daw do you use for the smk 26 thanks alot yor videos are great
No worries, I went over it in that video, and for this video I just connected via Bluetooth to my iPad. It should be pretty straight forward to setup. Thanks for watching!
@@ScottUhlMusic Im looking for a device with Acoustic guitar FXs and Voice Fxs combo, but not as big as the Looper X, something small and portable, I think this was a good opportunity since those FX are digital they didnt need a separate circuit for it. Do you know a solution of what im looking for?
@@bigquinny32 ahhhh, perfect! Thank you, this is just the feedback I was looking for. I use various drum machines and grooveboxes to build my own backing tracks, finding a solid looper with tight sync completes the setup. cheers
hey, I was just wonderin can we connect mic, guitar and key(akai midi play)??? .Please can you suggest I'm Planning to buy the looper But I'm not sure if three input works?
i purchased a two button foot switch to use on the Looper +. It still requires to be depressed twice for it to do anything. Is there a specific switch I need to get in order to only have to press it once?
@@palacios62771 sounds like the configuration of the button itself, it might be a toggle or momentary footswitch. Try changing the settings of it if you can
The Song mode should be done just by one move - after you have recorded both loops , the looper recognizes it and changes the behaviour of the footswitches as follows : left footswitch selects loop A , right footswitch selects loop B , to stop the looper step on the footswitch wich belongs to the active loop , ( the loop wich is playing ) .... step and hold on a switch clears the loop ....
Not that I know of. Possibly with midi clock though, I think it might be possible with that to some extent. But not “arm, wait for sound, then record,” no.
Yeah, I have so many other videos to finish up, and that one I have one large problem with that I'm trying to reach out with them about to see if it's just an issue on my end or theirs. I'm hoping to release it sometime in June!
I can't do that on mine. Best you can do is mute one of the tracks or solo , but when you stop it all the mute stays in place so it doesn't come back on. I can't understand why you would have 2 tracks Why not just overdub 1 track if you can't stop each individually
At that price to not get a power chord is just ridiculous. So much competition in this market at the moment so I think with the exception of nice beefy pedals, there is not much to get excited about. How can you have a Looper without a click or preferably some drum tracks. Honestly for the price I would Buy a RC 202 and mic stand mount it with a fat midi controller to the floor or even the one you used would be more powerful than the Sheeran looper at the same price
In my experience, people who loop are some of the pickiest people in the gear world (not a bad thing, people know what they want). I personally love the design of this looper and I will use it for acoustic sets to add a looper into it. But do what works best for you
I disagree, there are sometimes not enough outlets or you don’t want a bunch of power cords going to the power strip. Or like me you do outreaches in parks and places like when I go camping where there is no electricity.

The looper volume is low? Sounds like the main output needs to be turned up is my best guess, but I’m not sure
Is there a way to separate outputs for instrument and vocals? Seems like an oversight.
With the looper X yes. Which is why I’m glad they made two loopers. One with basically all the features, and one that is very small and minimal.
@@ScottUhlMusic bummer, that is the only feature needed for me to keep the pedal.

@@bigquinny32 ahhhh, perfect! Thank you, this is just the feedback I was looking for. I use various drum machines and grooveboxes to build my own backing tracks, finding a solid looper with tight sync completes the setup. cheers
@@bigquinny32 Nice! Thanks for sharing!
hey, I was just wonderin can we connect mic, guitar and key(akai midi play)??? .Please can you suggest I'm Planning to buy the looper But I'm not sure if three input works?
Yeah if you do do one into L input and one in R input and then control the instruments on the instruments themselves 👍
What's the name of mini piano?
It’s one by MVave and I go over it in this video;

Why oh while is there not a mix/level knob on this? You should be able to fade the loop/playback sound without fading your incoming guitar level.
It’s up to you if you want compact and portable or more features. Check out the Looper X
i purchased a two button foot switch to use on the Looper +. It still requires to be depressed twice for it to do anything. Is there a specific switch I need to get in order to only have to press it once?
@@palacios62771 sounds like the configuration of the button itself, it might be a toggle or momentary footswitch. Try changing the settings of it if you can
@@ScottUhlMusic not sure how to do that
The Song mode should be done just by one move - after you have recorded both loops , the looper recognizes it and changes the behaviour of the footswitches as follows : left footswitch selects loop A , right footswitch selects loop B , to stop the looper step on the footswitch wich belongs to the active loop , ( the loop wich is playing ) .... step and hold on a switch clears the loop ....
Can it be "armed" to start recording when I start playing, so I don't need to press a pedal to get the perfect start time?
Not that I know of. Possibly with midi clock though, I think it might be possible with that to some extent. But not “arm, wait for sound, then record,” no.
@@ScottUhlMusic Bummer. 😓 That is the number one feature I can't live without.
Boss rc30 v2 basically
I could see that
Are there ‘non-portable’ pedals??
This one is battery powered, which makes it more portable
a month later and still waiting for the looper x video :(
Yeah, I have so many other videos to finish up, and that one I have one large problem with that I'm trying to reach out with them about to see if it's just an issue on my end or theirs. I'm hoping to release it sometime in June!
I don't understand why would you have two tracks when you cannot stop / play them individually and together, what's the point
It depends on how your configure it, but you can do that 👍
I can't do that on mine. Best you can do is mute one of the tracks or solo , but when you stop it all the mute stays in place so it doesn't come back on. I can't understand why you would have 2 tracks Why not just overdub 1 track if you can't stop each individually
At that price to not get a power chord is just ridiculous. So much competition in this market at the moment so I think with the exception of nice beefy pedals, there is not much to get excited about.
How can you have a Looper without a click or preferably some drum tracks.
Honestly for the price I would Buy a RC 202 and mic stand mount it with a fat midi controller to the floor or even the one you used would be more powerful than the Sheeran looper at the same price
In my experience, people who loop are some of the pickiest people in the gear world (not a bad thing, people know what they want). I personally love the design of this looper and I will use it for acoustic sets to add a looper into it. But do what works best for you
Nobody needs a battery powered looper….accept the folks mooching change on the street?! 🤦♂️
Not true, i have a battery powered speaker and it’s great to use this for solo acoustic sets
I disagree, there are sometimes not enough outlets or you don’t want a bunch of power cords going to the power strip. Or like me you do outreaches in parks and places like when I go camping where there is no electricity.
