- Ed & HeadRush, or should I say "Ed-Rush".... have teamed up to bring us the new Sheeran Loopers. Ed has made a career looping, so he'd have a few ideas!

Great vid! At 9.20 you can clear both tracks by holding down the stop pedal for a longer amount of tine.
Good to know! Cheers.
Excellent video - I really appreciate the deep dive! Can you set this up to trigger record automatically after a count in from the beat buddy? In other words, track one is armed and waiting for the Beat Buddy count in to finish before it starts to record. I do this with my Beat Buddy and EHX 1440 and I love it.
Just discovered your channel! Great work! You’re an excellent musician and performer too! Subscribed!!
Cracking Review, really helpful. Great songs too.. I have one of these, it is my first looper and i am learning every day. This video has really helped me. Thank you
Great show! I really appreciate seeing your methods, hearing your musical vision. There is so much more to learn when you share these less-than-obvious use scenarios. Big thanks!
I have to say that omitting half the MIDI communication seems, well - I’ll say it; stupid! This is a company whose primary products lean very heavily on MIDI and they choose to build the equivalent of one walkie-talkie. I trend slightly toward cynical but facts is facts. It is not a budget unit and I expect everything.
yes, exactly that and their weird choice for not waiting for a bar to finish, actually holds me back from buying this.
@@martijn3151 This is a product I would neither buy nor recommend. “Sheeran?!?” What a cheese branding ploy. Headrush has told me something very important about their business in general. I appreciate the knowledge I can use to narrow my choices.
Thanks Dave! (you know what I mean!😅) 🤘🏻
Awesome review. Did you provide Headrush with your feedback on why it is they chose not to wait until the beginning of the bar? Seems really fiddly tbh. Perhaps they are able to fix this in an update?
Stealing that Mashup! You can steal Mine and Add on No Diggity onto the end! hahaha
good video btw.
Ah nice! Totally stealing that. Cheers.
have you been able to apply separate effects to your mic and your guitar? i do loops and want to have a nice clean mic'd acoustic looping and then electric guitar over it
Hi Dave Thanks for this video. I am having the hardest time synchin the BB to the Looper +. The MIDI cable that comes with the looper + and the cable for the BB as you know has both female ends. I went ahead and purchased another cable for the Looper plus to take the signal from the BB to the looper + hooked it all up and set all parameters and it seems the looper + is not getting the clock synch. When I try to record a loop while the BB is running it just sits in record waiting. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Is there a bluetooth in this looper so that i can transfer data from my phone.
Thanks for the helpful video! What type(s) of external footswitches are compatible? Latching, momentary... Can they be passive or do they need to be powered? Thanks!
I used the boss FS7, which has the ability to be latching or momentary, but I found momentary the way to go. I didn’t power it & it worked fine.
Thanks for the quick response, cheers!
Great content. I recently bought the Looper + to see if it could function like my Jamsync Pedals when used with my SDRUM. I don't often play with a live drummer, so for years I've set my Jamsync Pedals to start recording a loop on the downbeat of the drum part. However, it seems that the Looper + begins recording on the next clock beat instead of the downbeat, and it also stops on the next clock beat. In contrast, the Jamsync stops at the end of the measure.
This timing mismatch doesn't work for me, and I'm not willing to relearn every song in our set. It's a shame because the pedal has a great design and feels good to use. I appreciate the ability to adjust the input and output to mix with other sounds. I believe I have it set up correctly-it's connected to the SDRUM via a 3.5mm cable, and I've adjusted the settings to receive the MIDI Clock signal.
Do you have any suggestions on how I can get the Looper + to function the way I need it to?
I was having the same issue. As far as I could tell, the Looper + isn’t encouraged to work with a drum machine. It was doable, but it was tricky and I found myself in the same situation as you.
For me, it would be perfect as a looper for a small acoustic rig, but it wouldn’t be for my Beatbuddy setup.
To use it with a drum machine you’d need to make the sacrifice & learn the change.
Hey! Great video! I see you are using the Boss Fs7 but not cable power to power the pedal, how did you do that? Or am I missing something?
The power is only for the lights, otherwise it just works 🤘🏼
@@DaveWebbMusic omg i didn't know that! thanks!
@franciscodominguezguitar2510 yeah man, it’s so handy!
Great video! I can’t get my BeatBuddy to run with looper x, what does the trick, what am I missing? 🤔Any hint would be greatly appreciated 😊
Thanks man!
I’ll be getting the Looper X to review next week, so I’ll have a look then. Hopefully you figure it out in the meantime.
@@DaveWebbMusic Sorry, I meant Looper + 🙈
At this stage the Looper doesn’t slave to the BB. It follows the midi clock and loops to the closest midi downbeat. It’s usable, you just need to be accurate with the initial loop and figure out a way to make it work for you.
Hi Dave. I was wondering if you could help been using the Rc 300 for years and been try to download beats from my make as wav file s but keep getting error messages. unsupported format. can you help ?
plus I really like your channel Ive leaned a lot from you thanks for all your info !!!
Hey mate. Firstly make sure you’re exporting the wav files at the correct sample rate. From memory I think RC300 only accepts 44k 16bit.
If you still get unsupported format, I have found that you can’t just delete the loop from the pedal, you need to delete the file in the folder when connected to the computer, and sometimes even replace the folder.
Just make sure you name it correctly and it works fine.
It’s definitely a bit scary deleting the folder, just make sure to double check everything and it will be all good.
@@DaveWebbMusic Thanks 🙏🏾 for the advice and quick response
Can I quantize to a tempo from an external device. Like set the tempo to 85BPM start the loop then when I start the record it will quantize the loop...make sense?
It will follow the tempo set from external device, but you need to be accurate when you record and end the loop. The Looper+ midi syncs to the nearest midi downbeat and will quantize to that, so if you’re out, you’re loop will be out.
Can you send say a bass loop to the bass amp and guitar loop to guitar amp? I like to make loops and play drums over them. And playing drums is better with a bass rig going.
Thanks Dave! I've got a Beat Buddy - great to see it plays nice with the Sheeran kit...
It does not come with the adapter. You need to buy that swparately.
What am I doing wrong? My beatbuddy won’t make my Looper + it’s slave.
Looper + won’t slave like a Boss looper. It will receive the midi clock as long as you have both devices set correctly & it will stay in time, but you need to trigger the looper to start and stop on the appropriate down beats. Muting tracks will keep it in sync, but start stop has to be accurately pressed.
Same problem here, starting the BeatBuddy doesn’t start the looper 🤷♂️
I'm just wondering, why did they call it "plus"? To me it more like "minus". It just a looper WITHOUT effects.
