Overview

The Electro-Harmonix 1440 is the bigger brother of the 720, with expanded recording time and other features.

It allows for up to 24 minutes of 24-bit/44.1 kHz audio recording, with support for USB import and export for even more looping space.

You can save each loop to one of its 20 memory slots, and it has a 1 hot button for playing loops just once.

Other features include External MIDI compatibility for syncing with other gear, and stereo input/output, and you can add an external footswitch for more control.

If you're looking for a versatile looper that is still reasonably sized, then check out the Electro-Harmonix 1440.

Although this was previously on our recommended list, there are now more highly rated options available which you can see in our guide to The Best Loopers - Pedals & Tabletop.
