ULooper User Manual
Introduction
ULooper is the world's first dedicated looper pedal for guitar amps like Positive Grid Spark, Boss Katana,
Yamaha THR, etc., redefining the looping experience.
Most popular digital amps lack an FX loop interface, forcing traditional loopers to connect via the guitar
input. This means if you record a clean loop and then switch to distortion for soloing, the clean loop
also becomes distorted.
Unlike traditional Loopers, ULooper connects to amps via USB, ensuring your looped sound remains
unchanged even when changing your amp's tones and presets.
Additionally, it adds a Line Out feature to your amp, enabling easy connections to external speakers
without muting the amp's own speaker, unlike the headphone output, which does.
Compatible Amps
Positive Grid Spark: Spark 40, Spark MINI, Spark Go, Spark Live, Spark 2.
Boss KATANA: KATANA 50 MkI & MkII & Gen3 and higher models, KATANA AIR & EX, KATANA GO.
Yamaha THR-II: THR10II, THR10II-WL, THR30II, THR30IIA.
Fender Mustang LT: LT25, LT40S, LT50
Marshall Code: Code 25, Code 50, Code 100.
(Firmware v1.2.5)
