Whether stage performances, songwriting or Jam partner: The Phrase Looper is not only an essential part of the solo artists effects arsenal. Next to the possibility of compensating for missing band members on stage in the form of overdubs, the Phrase Looper is an ideal practice partner as well as an exceptional foundation for creative songwriting.
Reason enough to ensure that the operation of the Fame Looper mini Pedal is as intuitive and simple as possible! Various features such as Record, Play or Stop are all controlled via one foot switch. The large internal storage capacity allows for up to 10 minutes of recording time with an unlimited number of overdubs. Even Undo/Redo functions to delete or recreate the last dubs are onboard.
Via the USB port and the included cable, recorded Loop creations can be exported and imported, even WAV formats.

First of all, the price of the pedal is amazing! It comes with a nice box and a USB plug. The instruction, though, are in German so if you do not speak german you will have to download a translater. I am very happy that I perchased this looper pedal!
The pedal claims to be a true bypass and it maybe it is, but not the way most of us think it should be: Normally, on a vast majority of pedals, the way to tell if a pedal is in fact True Bypass is to unplug the power supply and see if the sound of your guitar still goes through. As I read in forums, apparently this is not always 100% true because some True Bypass pedals WILL cut off the sound when not powered!? Well, this is what the Fame Looper does, it cuts off the sounds of the guitar when unplugged! I find that deeply annoying, maybe others won't, but I just thought you should know before buying.
Other than that, it's a great little pedal. I especially like the soft click of the button, it engages and disengages very easily with a light touch of the foot.
