How we ranked these looper pedals

Every pick has at least 100 customer ratings on Amazon and a listing with real specifications. The order mixes two things: how each model compares on the specs below (higher share of the best value in this group scores more), and how widely it is bought. The spec score runs from 9.0 to 9.8 and only compares these picks with each other. A spec the listing does not state is left out and the other specs are re-weighted; a listing with fewer than 2 stated specs is scored at half. We do not test gear in person. Full method.

Buying advice: 2 channel looper pedal

Count the tracks you loop at once

Track count decides what you can layer. The BOSS RC-500 loops two tracks, and the BOSS RC-505 Mk2 holds 5 stereo tracks on a tabletop unit. The LEKATO pedal holds three loops, and the Rowin pedal records 10 minutes with unlimited overdubbing. Pick the track count first, then compare loop time and controls inside that group.

Compare loop time before you buy

Loop time decides how long one phrase can run. The LEKATO pedal records 18 minutes in total across three loops, with each loop up to 6 minutes, and the Rowin pedal records 10 minutes. Unlimited overdubbing lets you layer new phrases over old ones, and undo and redo let you step back a layer. The RC-500 adds 13 hours of stereo recording time in a single-track configuration.

Check USB file transfer and power

USB file transfer decides whether loops leave the pedal. The LEKATO, Rowin and RC-500 pedals all move files over USB, with the LEKATO and Rowin pedals moving music to and from a PC. The LEKATO pedal also saves recorded files automatically even when the unit is powered off. Check the power need too: the LEKATO pedal uses a 9V central negative supply, and the RC-500 box holds a power supply.
