Will this unit operate on internal power? Single 9V?
John G
on Jul 31, 2021
BEST ANSWER: Not just this pedal but any pedal this size would need an external 9v power supply since there's no room inside the pedal for a battery. I use the power supply from my pedal board but you can buy a 9v power supply from Monoprice for under $10.

This unit is a slim, compact design. There is no room for a 9 volt battery. You will need to purchase the "wall wart" power supply from them in addition to the looper pedal.

No, 9V power supply. It’s on my pedal board with 6 other pedals and hard wired. I really like the pedal, Hope this helps.

Do you have an AC adapter to power it with? The adapter is required for it to function. No provision for batteries or phantom power is available on this device. Also, read the comments by rafters on the site if you have not done so.

I've seen 30 minutes run-time for the pedal and the description has 90 minutes run-time. How exactly are you calculating the run-time of this pedal? 90 minutes total run-time shared by all three tracks? 30 minutes of independent run-time for each track? Or 30 minutes of total run-time shared by all three tracks? Thank you

BEST ANSWER: 30 minutes of "run time" and then allows you to "record" two more passes on top of that first run before "running out of room." Then you can offload your 30 minute loop to your computer. Pretty cool.

When hooked up to USB it presents as a disc drive. There is an interesting text file named "LOOPER" that has a list of numbers and looper functions like this (partial):
1->emmcInit->getWav:1
2->changeLooperBank start:
3->changeLooperBank start:1
4->checkLooperWav no wav:
A:BypassState->FootSW->Tap->StartRecord:
106->startPlay:
107->startRecord:
108->QA:RecordState->FootSW->Tap->StopRecord:
109->getRecordState:1
110->xRecordStart:
111->xRecordStop:5593088
112->stopRecord addFile:1
113->QA:LooperState->FootSW->Tap->StartRecord:
Anybody have any idea what these are and why they are there? They aren't MIDI commands are they?

Why can't you record a "clean" guitar rhythm layer and then overdub a guitar layer with gain/distortion without it playing back both layers with gain/distortion even though the gain isn't activated on your Amp? Or does anyone who's encountered this shortcoming of this Looper found a workaround that will allow both the "clean" part and the gain/distortion as they were recorded. I encountered this problem/shortcoming when I attempted to record the clean rhythm guitar part of "All Along the Watchtower" (Hendrix version of course) and then overdub the lead part with gain. During playback both layers had gain and as I said gain was not active during playback. Any advise or suggestions or workarounds are greatly appreciated. Other than that I have no complaints. It's a great Looper given its price. Thanks.

3 attempts, 3 fails - Never got multiple units to work.
3 attempts, 3 fails. Was gifted this a couple years ago and forgot about it. Once I opened it to test it out, I never was able to get it to work. It was out of warranty by that point, but customer service allowed me a $5 discount on a new one, which also didn't work. They sent a free replacement that I just received, and it too did not work.
I've had decent/workable products from Monoprice before in the computer/consumer audio area, but IMO the pro audio/musician department is lacking.
Customer service via email was relatively helpful, although not entirely responsive (responded within a day or so).
I'm a bit disappointed overall as it seems based on the reviews on the site, plenty of people who have purchased this device have gotten it to work, but since my everything else about my guitar setup works, I'm done with this pedal.

Great looper for the price
This looper only holds three separate "tracks" (i.e. songs), but each of the three can have "unlimited" loops added to it. It's fairly intuitive to use (none of the one-button loopers are particularly straigthforward IMO, this one is no better or worse). The sound quality is quite good., more than adequate for a bar gig. This will probably not be the last loop pedal you ever buy, but it's a good value for the money and a good way to get into trying out using a loop pedal without shelling out a lot of $$$.

It does work but with limitations
The looper works to record my own playing but I have trouble copying and playing independently recorded WAV files from PC. All that comes out is scratchy distorted mess, apparently some formatting issue or else. Another problem is that it seems to allow only x3 loops even though there is a lot of storage so the memory is very underutilized unless one uses very long loops.. It cannot record a few loops in the same bank because it will play the whole thing until it returns to the first one.

Monoprice LP3 True Bypass Looper Guitar Effect Pedal
I really like it. Works as intended and the price is great. I just have to learn the timing on when I step on it to record to when I stop recording for playback so it falls in-time and doesn't leave gaps. The three toggle switch to record different parts is a great feature. I just got it a few weeks ago so I need more time to play with it with regards to the other features such as the USB but I really like it. Will help me when I'm trying to figure out solos and eventually I'd like to use it at a live gig, but the timing process has a learning curve. Construction is solid and the pedal has a small footprint on my pedal board. Great product!

Volume control issue needs to be corrected, otherwise a nice pedal
Beware, the Volume control on this looper controls not only the loop volume, but also the live guitar volume, so it is impossible to lower the loop volume and easily hear what you play over the top of the loop. The only work-around I could think of (lowering the guitar volume control while making the loop) was not acceptable.
I've used other looper pedals; on all of them the volume control is for the loop alone. So, I can't recommend this looper as it functions right now, and I returned mine for a refund (handled very promptly by MP).
Note that the unit seems solidly built, apparent build quality seemed no different from something you might pay 2x more for, and if this volume control issue was corrected, it would be a great value.
