I had no issues importing these, the Ditto X2 imported and converted them fine. Factory Reset Hold loop button 13 seconds.

When I plugged it in for a sound check against my old Boss RC , the sound quality of the Ditto X2 really stood out as exceptional and superior to the Boss.
The Ditto X2 is a fantastic sounding looper and could certainly be used both for live shows or for recording. The X2 did not seem to color my tone at all. I also like to have midi sync capabilities on my loopers because I like to create beats in Ableton Live. Overall, the Ditto X2 really is a fantastic sounding easy-to-use looper that has proven to be extremely popular with serious musicians.
The extra footswitch is nice, but the original Ditto Looper has the same great sound quality and simplicity. In that case, the small size of the original Ditto might make that the choice. Bottom line: Keep your Ditto. REAL musical looping, is impossible.
Bought a Jamman Express XT.. If you can play in time you should be able to easily make a loop that is also in time. Will it let you record longer overdub loops than the first one you record?
Say if i want to do some rhythmic chucking to keep tempo and maybe do some short overdubs that will loop forever, but then want to record a longer guitar lick over that, would it allow me to do that? Just curious how the phrase looping works and if those features are available.
I guess the obvious opposite questions would be, if I record a really long first loop, can my subsequent overdubs be shorter depending on when I decide to trigger and close the subsequent overdub?
Lastly, does the LED change colors to let you know what status the pedal is in IE- does it toggle colors or shades of color between record mode, playback, overdub? Your first recording sets the length of the loop and overdubs will not loop at different loop lengths. So, for example, if you want to do some chucking to play 12 bar blues, you first have to chuck for 12 bars, then record your 12 bar rhythm, then you can solo, etc.
If your overdub is shorter than 12 bars, the chucking will still loop for the full 12 bars with nothing over it. Basically, its a single loop looper. If you want to have different loops of different lengths and have them match up, you should check out the Pigtronix Infinity or the Boss RC The Ditto X2 is really just a stripped down, simple, but great sounding looper.
Also, the LED is green when its playing, red when its recording, and blinking green when its stopped but still loaded with the last loop you recorded. I wish they built in a degrading feature on subsequent loops like the behavior in the Line6 DL4, so as you move along in passes your previous work slides further and further into a haze. Also, How well does it quantize? What I mean is, say if you decide you want to trigger an overdub, can you hit the loop footswitch a few seconds before the loop that is still playing and it will know when to start recording the overdub, or does your timing have to be impeccable with this pedal?
Because overdubs can sit anywhere on top of the loop, you have to record it where you want it. I understand the problem you are worried about, but it only really arises when using a looper that can record two or more independent loops that need to work together. Because you can only record one loop with the X2 and overdub on top of it , quantizing is not really an issue. They suggested I exchange it for another one through the place I purchased it.
It will save internally up to 5 minutes, but will not store for transfer to a computer. Sometimes it will store a 2 to 3 minute sample, but never more than 3 minutes. The specs say it should store up to 5 minutes. If someone can try this on another unit before I send this one back, please let me know. Steps are: power up, hit left button to record, wait 3 minutes or more, press right button to stop make sure right toggle is set to stop mode , press left toggle up to store.
HTM file that says there is an error. If it succeeded, the track file is stored there. Not much help from them. I finally got a refund by my local dealer and bought a Boss RC3 instead.
The sound quality is awesome. My solution for stopping the original Ditto pedal with one step at the end of a phrase or song at the precise right time, and for erasing the loop while inaudible offline, is to put the original Ditto pedal in another one button true-bypass loop.
However it does involve more space on your pedal board for use of another somewhat expensive pedal. IMHO it seems to me that that the reverse and half speed FX functions on the newer X2 pedal are totally useless in a live performance. It would have been better to have the second button stop the loop by default. Quantization would be a plus. The toggle would be put to much better use if it enabled you to toggle among two or possibly more stored loops along with the one you might create on the fly.
I think the main improvement on the X2 was the second footswitch. My first impression: wow, really cool unit. Is your timing really so show-stoppingly horrible that you need a piece of equipment to correct it? Some of you guys are missing the point of the overall design of this pedal.
Step on the thing to record, step on it again to play. Step on it again to overdub. Press the stop button to stop it. Hold the FX button to clear it. Certainly not loud or intrusive enough to call it a NO GO! If yours is extremely loud, you might need to adjust your level. Are you using the FX button in stop mode? Hi Enrico. If quantize is something you want or need, you should check out the newer pedals by Boss and Digitech. As Edward commented, the Ditto and Ditto X2 are intentionally not feature-packed loopers.
They are designed for musicians who just want to keep it simple. Hope this helps. Hey Edward. Sorry you feel that way. This is really more of a place for comments than a forum. Stay tuned and thanks for your helpful comments. I have been looking for a place that discusses different loopers, and also techniques, tips, tricks, etc.
I like this site, and the reviews are thorough and actually quite helpful. The ditto or the pigtronix infinity? The ditto is true bypass, the pigtronix if I am safe to assume is not. How much of a superior tone does the ditto have compared to the pigtronix? Similar to the Ditto X2, the Infinity records at 24 bits. It also has transparent analog bypass and sounds amazingly good. So, it really comes down to whether you want a simple, straight-forward single loop looper, or extra power under the hood for dual loop recording, routing multiple instruments to different amps, MIDI synch capabilities, etc.
Hi, Very useful pague and reviews. Cheers, Xavier. I have seen that for Digitech Jamman the sampling rate is 44 kHz and 16 bit. For Boss RC I was not able to find this out in internet. What do you think? Again, thanks for the very useful page. You did a great work! I noticed it right away. The Ditto and Ditto X2 are both capable of bit uncompressed audio.
Ho admin, great page, thanks to profi like you.. So, hard for me to choose the best looper for me. Sometimes I sing and maybe sound of voice would be perfect for jamming. Hi Radovan. Thanks for your comment. The two loopers you are considering are pretty different. So, the biggest selling point for the RC might be the ability to store tons of pre-recorded loops and the ability loop your voice via the XLR mic input. Then again, the Ditto X2 has slightly better sound quality and is just a straight-forward, simple-to-use, one-loop looper.
The Ditto X2 is also a bit smaller and less expensive. If you want to loop your vocals as well as your guitar, then the Ditto is not an option.
There is no XLR input on the Ditto. These two particular loopers are miles apart in features and are clearly designed for very different purposes. If you want simple, on-the-fly looping, once and done, then the Ditto is awesome. If you need more than one loop, or you want to use pre-recorded loops, as well as the ability to loop vocals and harmonize with yourself, then the BOSS is obviously a better choice.
This way, I can have my percussionist record the first chorus along with me so that the rhythm is clear and easy to hear along with the rhythm guitar I play 7-string, so the bass is important, but not as easy to hear once the band starts playing.
In any case, the Ditto sounds really nice, is very easy to use, and works very well in live performance with my 6-piece African group. What looper would you recommend for looping vocals and guitar? People have suggested both the Jamman solo xt and the Boss products — which would be better do you think? Have you checked out the Boss RC?
That would be a pretty good option. I have! But some people have said its not so great for vocals and that a jamman would be a lot better?? When I try to use overdrive pedals ahead of my Ditto 1 it affects the balance volume of the loop playback compared with the straight-thru volume. The balance is fine if I use my guitar straight in.
I bought a brand new Ditto X2 from GC yesterday. Did not try plugging it in to a 9V power supply at home, but took it to work today. Downloaded the free package off of Jamtrack, plugged the looper in using the supplied USB cable and Nothing lights up at all, and the computer doesn't recognize the device.
Stupid question 2; Is some kind of software download required to recognize the Ditto on my computer? I'm not a computer expert, but know how to plug in a USB. Jamtracks are all downloaded on my computer, but when I plug in the USB, it's not recognize.
Messages 4, NAC25 said:. I don't own one but: 1. I would, but I have no reference to prove that. USB is a hot pluggable bus after all. Shouldn't be if it is class compliant. I downloaded the software, but it asks for my device, which isn't coming up in the drop down menu. Think I know what's wrong.
I need a center negative power supply. The one I have here at the office is center positive. Thanks TC Electronic for not supplying a power supply! Messages
