Loopers For Live Performance - Your Choice, And Why?

Zappledan · Jan 18th 2016

So there are quite a few from which to choose, but which has the best combination of usability, pure sound, and flexibility? Opinions, please!

Describe your needs specifically - otherwise you'll just get suggestions of what people have themselves

It may help to describe what you want it to be able to do. Then, people may be able to offer some qualified suggestions.

I wanted one a few years ago to use for acoustic gigs, and found out that none of them functioned the way I wanted to use one. So much for that

Never used a looper in my life lol. Tried the KPA one a few times, but it's not something I would use in my situations

I doubt that my needs would differ much from anyone else's, at least as regards use in a solo act. Fact is, I'm not even sure what I will eventually need (should I choose to get one). I'm looking for any and all opinions and experiences.

You should at least imagine a minimum duration time, if you need stereo, how many loops (if any) you want to be able to store, what are your needs in terms of editing the single layers.

This is the best one I've found

Loops up to 5 minutes. Multiple loops...you can even go with the bigger version of it if you want loops to play backwards...I have that one and never found a use for the backward loops though.

I few years ago I had the JamMan Stereo. It was easy to use, but I felt that the sound quality was less than stellar. Maybe the new ones are better. I also had a Ditto, but found it to be much too limited. If the JamMan had better sound quality then it would be acceptable.
