Overview

The popularity of the original Ditto Looper prompted TC Electronic to follow it up with the Ditto X2 Looper.

It carries over the same intuitive single-track looping functionality of the original, but adds stereo input/output, USB connectivity and a section for loop effects, complete with a dedicated controls.

The looper section is a straightforward as its compact sibling, with up to 5 minutes total recording time and the same single-knob loop level and single-footswitch controls.

The Loop Effects section lets you switch between half speed and reverse looping effects, and it also allows you to use both at the same time.

The built-in USB port lets you export and import loops from your computer.

Overall, the TC Electronic Ditto X2 is a great 2 foot-switch upgrade to the original Ditto and other compact loop pedals.
