Great switcher

madmusician 08.12.2019

I bought this switcher because it offered exactly the right combination of features I wanted. It has sufficient number of loops, it can operate your amp's loop (although technically for only one pedal/loop) and switch your amp as well. It clearly tells you which combination is currently active using many LEDs, it is easy to set up, operate and program.

It offers a relatively small footprint for all these features. But the jacks are too close to each other and for example the Hicon HI-J63MA05 Angled Jacks (or similar) cannot be used. Apart from that, I have nothing negative to say about this switcher. If you also want exactly these features for your pedalboard, then go for it!

Pleasantly surprised

Anonymous 12.05.2016

I bought this to control my 5 pedal board (and growing)
I did a lot of research as there are plenty of switcher/loop controller pedals out there, but I needed something that does not eat too much board space but does the job and endures my ever growing pedal collection.
I was a little wary of the brand, but was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this controller.
It does what it says, no issues there. It is also sturdy and will probably last forever.
If this is your first controller, there are 2 things to consider:
1. There is only a single Bank switch, that will take you only upwards. So if you plan on jumping banks between songs, be ready to click 4-5 times if you want to go back to Bank 1. A bank down switch would have been welcome
2. You can't program it for MIDI, which was fine for me, but may one day lead me to selling it
Overall, great choice for my needs, excellent functionality, no noise, good stuff

Moen GEC8 JR Looper/Switcher V2

Starscream 31.03.2020

I think this is a very good loop switcher and the reason I bought it was because I wanted one with soft switches. I do wish it had more than 1 loop in the 2nd signal path. While similar, the Moen is definately easier to program than the Harley Benton FXL8 Pro. The Moen's biggest issue is the triggers default to my dirt channel and you cant switch the polarity so it doesn't do this. I also own the Harley Benton FXL8 Pro and IF the Harley Benton would make a version 2 that added soft switches and made the programming easier then it would be the better looper as it has 4 loops per signal path. I wish I was famous so I could have a signature looper because they all fall short somewhere which is very annoying as no one is taking the best bits to make a looper to rule them all. But the Moen and Harley Benton are the leaders at this chassis size / price point in early 2020.

Simple, Compact & Effective

Littleleb 13.01.2019

Space saving looper that leaves room for my actual pedals on the pedalboard. Simple to use and sounds great. All you will ever need at this price. The V2 adds true bypass and the ability to switch the banks both up and down. Built like a tank. Should last forever.
