Great looper for the money, but not for beginners
It’s a HB mini stomp pedal. They’re decently well constructed and I’d feel confident gigging them. The foot switch is responsive (* more on that later) and the feature set is incredible. 10 minutes of recording with unlimited overdubs is awesome. Being able to delete / restore the most recent loop is also a nice touch, especially on such an inexpensive pedal!
Here comes the asterisk: the footswitch itself is pretty responsive, but the latency mentioned in a few reviews really is there. It doesn’t seem to be an issue with the switch: the first layer records instantly, but all overdubs are set back a bit.
Although it seems perfect on paper for a beginner, this misalignment in timing is going to be one more thing for the beginner to figure out and compensate for, splitting focus away from playing. So, it’s a great looper for the money, for a musician already capable of accounting for the timing difference without missing a beat

Gut für den Preis
Für den Einstieg gut geeignet, oder wenn man einen "Background Track" zum üben braucht. Ich nutze das Gerät nur Zuhause zum Proben. Für diesen Zweck ist es toll, besonders zu dem Preis.
Wenn man mehr machen möchte z. B. für Auftritte, empfehle ich das Pedal nicht. Die Wiedergabe und die Bedeienung eignen sich dafür nicht.
Also Zuhause üben - 5 Sterne, für Auftritte einsetzen - 3 Sterne.

Poor quality.
Hard to use, catches all the nanoseconds you miss, poor sound quality.

Not very happy
I own Mustang LT25 and I wasn't sure that I can use looper on it, so I decided to buy this affordable one.
Build quality is great!
Easy to use!
But, the tone is not very good. Its strangely silent and changes the tone.
I haven't try any other looper (this is my first one), maybe its up to the amp, not sure. I have OD pedal in front of the looper and the OD sounds great on the clean setting on the amp.
Anyhow, usualy I am very satisfied with Thomann products. This is my first not-5-star rate.

Very noisy pedal
Good functional, but noisy as hell. Producing the hum and buzz
Poor quality. Don't buy for gigs for sure. Maybe in a quiet place, you won't hear the noise but when connected to the 4x12 stack very annoying hum appears

It's alright
Nothing really wrong with the looper. I just don't use it anymore after i bought the zoom multipedal. There is a looper on there together with plenty of effects and a drum computer, for just double the price. There is nothing with this looper, but you get more bang for buck with the zoom.

Double click carazyness!
The device is a good quality copy of the ditto looper. Price is good and build quality too, even though since I bought it, some cheaper clones from chinese manufacturers with similar features have started to appear. Sound is good and even though this is not a true bypass pedal I do not think it adds any distorsion. I cannot complain on all of the above. What I found very disturbing is the original design choice of the ditto looper of using a double click to stop the loop: that is extremely difficult to use ( the double tap is out of the tempo of the song). As a result, stopping a loop within the right tempo is almost impossible, or requires lots of training. Basically this means I am only able to use this looper in an additive way (overdubbing over the loop witout ever stopping it), which is a little deception for me.

Weird handling
I wish the handling was a bit better as it doesn't always respond that well so the stop and like layer options are sometimes confused so you get weird sounds.
The volume knob is also not always that good and your signal and layers can get lost in the mix very easily.

Budget Looper
If you are about to get started to using Loopers, why not go for this budget product...?
If you are used to Loopers, better spend a bit more and get a more complete product.

A good looper.
This is my first looper and I wouldn't like to spend a lot for it. It is decent and quality made. It sounds good. I have no regret of buying it.
