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.

  • Loop recording time weight 2
  • Stereo in/out weight 1
  • Headphone output weight 1
  • True bypass weight 1

Buying advice: mini looper pedal

Check loop time before you buy

Loop time decides how long a loop you can record, so compare the loop time with the phrases you play. A longer loop time gives room for more measures, while a shorter loop time suits a short phrase. Storable loops let you keep more than one loop, so check how many loops a pedal stores.

Check true bypass and controls together

True bypass means the pedal passes the signal untouched when off, so check for true bypass if you want the signal unchanged when the pedal is off. Controls differ from one pedal to another, so check whether a pedal uses one button, a knob, or a footswitch. A simple layout helps when you record, overdub, and erase loops on the fly.

Check USB and power before deciding

USB import and export let you move loops to and from a computer, so check whether a pedal offers USB. Power differs from one pedal to another, so check what power source a pedal uses and what comes in the box. A USB cable in the box is one less item to find when you first set up.
