Stadium Grade Hardware Sheeran Looper these precision engineered pedal assemblies are forged from automotive-grade aluminum alloy and mounted on a low profile matte black tour steel chassis. An optimally pitched 15° pedal surface provides direct access to the looper transport, track controls, performance modes, and remix functions for intuitive operation and fluid performance. The stunning contoured side panel profile features a satin titanium gray finish, reflecting the sophistication and elegance of Ed's very own Sheeran by Lowden™ Acoustic Guitar range.
Everything’s Under Control
Sheeran Looper X raises the bar with a responsive 7-inch multi-touch display and 360° navigation wheel that makes exploration intuitive, fast, and easy. Looper X is specifically designed to provide advanced looping functionality through a clean and easy-to-manage user interface, using a familiar smartphone-style main menu to access performance pages and system settings. A virtual keyboard appears for naming tracks and sessions, and a multi-touch audio mixer and FX editor lets you change parameters in seconds using familiar drag-and-swipe gestures. Looper also features important tactile input and output volume controls, allowing you to adjust your mix quickly and easily.
Looping Without Limits:
Looper X can record up to four stereo looper tracks in a single session with no maximum loop length restrictions. Store over 7 hours of audio to internal HD storage, or connect an external USB or SD drive to expand to virtually unlimited storage capacity. Looper X offers powerful algorithmic features such as tap tempo with intelligent time stretching and automatic tempo detection for naturally played loops. You can also import a loop (.wav or .mp3) into a track and have it automatically adjust to the tempo of the current loop. Looper also offers control via external MIDI devices and a customizable pedal menu feature that allows you to completely personalize and customize your perfect workflow.
5 Creative Looper Modes:
Looper X offers intuitive looping out-the-box with five versatile looper modes to spark creativity and hone your performance.
Multi Mode: 4 tracks with a global loop length for building tracks, just like Ed’s stadium stage looper workflow.
Sync Mode: 4 tracks with the same or different lengths that automatically stay in sync to create dynamic arrangements on-the-fly.
Song Mode: 4 tracks with same or different lengths that function as independent song sections (ex. verse, chorus, etc.)
Band Mode: 3 tracks with same or different lengths that function as independent song sections (ex. verse, chorus, etc.) and 1 global track that can be used for all song sections (ex. percussion)
Free Mode: 4 unsynchronized tracks with no rules, perfect for getting creative with ambient soundscapes
