Loops and Bounds AheadThe original DITTO LOOPER rocked guitarists with a lust for looping like nothing else. Finally something that was simple, made for guitarists and sounded great. What would possibly be better? Well, how about all of that, plus new, next level looping features forged from pure awesome? • Dedicated Start/Stop Button • Looper effects: Stop, Reverse and Half Speed • Loop Import/Export and Backing tracks |
Start Where We BeganGuitarists love DITTO LOOPER like nothing else. Its ultra simple design and guitar-centric features like true-bypass, analog dry-through, high quality audio, as well as 5 minutes of looping time and unlimited overdubs resonated with guitarists around the world. So why mess with what we nailed the first time? |
History RepeatingLet ya in on a little secret? We love effects. But to us they need to make sense, and the resurgence of loopers fueled by DITTO LOOPER had more and more guitarists scream: loop-laden effects please! DITTO LOOPER X2 allows you to play loops in reverse, half-speed or both at the same time. Which, as you might imagine, can make for a subtle performance or a jaw dropping show that makes the audience stop dead in their tracks. |
Free Your MindYour loops are a reflection of you. So, to have them trapped in a tiny box just doesn’t make any sense. Now, you are free to export your loops and work with them in a DAW of your choice, or you can import loops and even backing tracks to and take them to gigs. Small sentence, HUGE advantage for gigging musicians! |

The first Ditto looper made its way into the the spotlight because if it’s ease of use and small footprint on a pedal board. But I’m new to this. I didn’t like the idea of click for this, double click for that, click and hold for something else and so on. From everything I’ve read, timing needs to be impeccable to use loopers effectively.
While the more advanced loopers have tons of features, you can’t operate them on the fly. You have to spend a lot of time in the presets and even then you have to reach down and scroll through endless menus to get through the settings. I wanted something that was simple and could be operated solely through foot switches without complicated, overstuffed menus full of features I may never use. Enter the Ditto X4.
For starters, it’s built like a tank. I was really impressed with how sturdy this thing is. What you essentially have is TWO single loopers in the same housing that can be made to operate independently, or synched together. What does that mean and why is that good? Let’s say you’re playing and putting down a basic chord progression you want to practice your solos over. So you record a loop on channel 1. You add some little flourishes to it by adding more layers, still on channel one. But then you want to add something that you will want to remove part way through the song. You can record that on channel two. If the two channels are synched, they will play in time together. Then you hit channel 2 and the dedicated “stop” switch (yes! A dedicated stop switch!) and your song goes on without messing up or accidentally deleting loops on your original channel 1 recording.
OR…. You can run them independent of one another. This means whatever you record on channel 1 will stop when you hit play on whatever you recorded on channel 2. For instance, you can play the verse chords on channel 1, and chorus chords on channel 2. By the way, it works the timing out for you. So you can hit “play” whenever you want and the light flashes until it the next bar rolls around and then it starts automatically. You don’t have to have perfect timing.
The other thing I like are the built in effects. Like “tape stop”, and “fade” among a handful of others. They are fun ways to add stops and pauses to your songs. The last feature is a knob in the middle that is a sort of “decay”. What this means is that you can loop infinitely if it’s turned all the way down. But the more loops you add the messier it can start to sound. As you turn it up, the lower loops will start to fall off. This means if you are doing extended performances you can shape and change the performance as you go, without having to re-do loops since you can’t delete the first loop if you have 10 more on top of it. I haven’t used this feature yet and maybe I never will, but I thought it was clever and a handy tool for those who may be really advanced at looping.
To summarize this: This is a great looper for learning on. I got it as a practice tool because I liked the ability to have two channels (I don’t need 10) that I can play verse and chorus chords on. Most looper songs are stuck on a single chord progression because they can’t do more than that with one channel. I liked the simple, very user friendly controls as well as some effects to keep things fun. Price wise, it was 1/3 of the cost of the BOSS looper I was going to get and still not priced much higher than a basic one channel looper. Best bang for your buck from a company that has made a name for themselves in the world of looping. Oh, one more thing, it has midi inputs so you can synchronize it to something like a Beat Buddy or drum machine. Then voila! You’re a one man band 😊
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2024
Also note I was not impressed with TCE support--a real lack of communication, and hard to find information on whom to contact. The website (at the time) was very user-unfriendly. The repairs took several weeks to a month.
Now, having said that...this is a good product. There is a fairly steep learning curve. In particular, you have to be accurate with your timing to make a good recorded loop. But once you're going, it is quite easy to use, well set-up, and fairly flexible depending on how you want to use your loops--loop 1 and 2 serially or simultaneously, etc.
The sound quality is very good. I have noticed no degradation of sound with the looper either in use or bypassed. I run mine through a Fishman Artist. There is the option to run a stereo output, allowing for even more interesting uses--2 speakers, separate effects, etc.
The downsides (other than the repair issues mentioned above)--I have successfully exported and imported loops using Windows, and can export either to a MacBook or iPad, but have yet to figure out how to import loops from a MacBook or iPad into the Ditto. What is required is to be able to eject the disk (looper) prior to disconnecting. The iPad or iPhone does not have an eject function, and my MacBook (running Big Sur 11.6) will temporarily "eject" then remount the looper as a disk. Therefore when I disconnect it, the looper does not load the imported loop or WAV file.
Despite much research on the web, I have not figured out a way around this. My Windows laptop is clunky, and it would be nice to be able to use a much smaller iPad or iPhone even on stage to be able to load prerecorded loops on the fly. I am pretty much "bilingual" when it comes to Windows and Mac, but there's no question for live music Mac and (for me) the iPad are the way to go.
The other problem I have had which is noted in the TC forums (also clunky and not user-friendly at all) is that the Hold effect seems to trigger the Double time effect which is right next to it by mistake. I have not found a way to reset it to OEM function. I don't use effects much other than fade, but it's annoying to have them not work as advertised.
Anyway, despite these flaws, I would buy a TCE looper again in a heartbeat, because they are the simplest and most intuitive to use. I might consider a Ditto Plus or X2 (although almost as expensive as the X4).
