MOOER Audiofile Guitar Headphone Amp Analog, Access to Effects Circuits, Buffer/Clean Boost for Electric Guitar/Bass

I struggled a bit with the interface on this pedal at first. After reading the manual, I thought it would work one way, but that wasn't quite right. This pedal has eight different loops in six different styles, and each of those styles has at least one loop that is not in 4/4 time, which is quite interesting. One of the most interesting features on this pedal is that you can activate a fill via the footswitch. That is the feature I had the most trouble figuring out. You have to single press the fill button to toggle that feature on or off. Once on, it works quite well, adding cool and useful fills at a button press. My only issue is that you have to toggle the feature off to stop the drums. You might be able to touch it with your toe if you are very careful, but this is a mini pedal, so you might hit something else. Unfortunately, that limits how much you can use this for live performance. It could still be quite useful for jamming alone or with friends, or for entering complex drum sequences into a looper, for which the inline interface could be quite useful. I tested this out both inline and with an aux input on my looper, and generally prefer using a separate input, personally, but placed late in your effects chain, this could work quite well. The samples sound quite good, and the EQ is helpful for adjusting the drum sound for different styles. It still sounds good through some light overdrive, but would generally be a bit better in a clean amp or through an effects loop. A little bit of reverb is quite nice, and the ability to add some modulation to the drums opens up some interesting possibilities. It is important to realize this is a mini pedal with no MIDI connections or anything, so it will be hard to match this to other things besides live playing, since your tempo controls are either a tempo dial or tap tempo. When switching patterns, your tempo setting is generally kept, though some loops are in half or double time, and it gets more complicated with those loops that are not in 4/4. I like that when switching patterns, the pedal generally waits until the bar is finished to switch to the new pattern, which makes it easier to stay in the groove. Overall, this pedal is a really good way to have some useful, great-sounding drum patterns for jamming or looping in a very small package.

This MOOER Looper II is unreal for the price point, quality, easy of use, compact size, and reliability. To be able to layer 16 tracks with such a tremendous amount of detail and time is awesome. It’s a great tool for practicing with a small practice amp, or even for gigging ! This would also be a great pedal with their wireless sampling unit as well. This works well is in pedal chain, and is extra amazing with a Freeze pedal and a sustain. Things remain very clear, crisp, and up front. Such a great little investment for any level of player, and not just for guitar either…it is amazing with a mic creating sick harmonies! Buy it while it’s in stock, or pre-order it when it is not. The company is reliable and quick to reply as well. Awesome!

This is great little (tiny actually) drum machine with plenty of drum samples and very realistic sounds. Almost perfect for practicing. I would have given five stars here except that, while the device does does have a tempo adjustment knob, AND will accept a tapped tempo, it has no way to display the actual tempo in BPM. IMHO such a feature is critical when practicing. Otherwise, it's a great little drum machine.

The pro's- Order delivered on time. Unit is small, solidly built. It does not introduce any signal/line interference, is true bypass, and 9 volt power is only required to light up the LED. An adaptor is NOT included.The con's- I am returning it, and Mooer wanted to charge me return postage, which I was absolutely unwilling to pay. I had to reach out to Amazon customer service, whom requested Mooer send a prepaid postage label. Mooer did finally respond and comply, but really, there is no reason why someone should have to pay to return an item to a company that makes a ton of money from poor musicians.The unit uses a manual selector switch, so the user can only choose between A or B, but in order to use A,B,&Y, they have to manually flip the switch. This will be detrimental for a performer who needs to do it mid song. A 3 way wired stomp switch would have resolved the issue. The instruction manual is ridiculously small print. The unit is made in China.

The drum pedal works like a charm if you don't ask too much. I wanted it for practice and beat-keeping at small venue shows to spice up solo guitar, not professionally recording or replacing a human being. The options are all there, unfortunately there's absolutely not explanation about what each one is or how to change them (in the manual). Also, no power supply. I played with it for like an hour before I realized the little metal switch in the top middle changes "grooves." You pretty much have to just flip through all of them to find and write down what you actually want. Speed control is responsive. I can't seem to understand how the "fill" feature works, either - it can't really be turned off entirely to leave a raw drum beat.In short, if you just want digital drums to keep time and add flavor, it's a good-sounding and cheap option. If you want some kind of complex digital looper that might work in a band, probably spend more money elsewhere.
