Despite the 'OK' scoring, I like the Ditto because of its simplicity - the quality its makers emphasise. However ... (big reservations coming). A looper that is going to be used for live performance needs to have a 'stop' and 'clear' switch sequence that works invisibly to your audience, and that's where this device lets you down. You must hit the foot switch twice to stop the loop, and that's imprecise but achievable. Clearing the loop is worse though, and you have to stop the loop then hold the switch down. That would be OK, but whilst you're holding it down its playing the first few notes of the loop. Awkward in a live setting. In a practice setting this is an inexpensive and fun looper, but for serious (and especially live) work you need its big brother, the Ditto X2.
