MXR's latest creation builds on their storied legacy of crafting premium effects pedals for world-class guitarists. The M303 gives you up to three hours of 24-bit audio recording time across three loop tracks—ample room for crafting complex soundscapes on the fly. Its intuitive design includes an easy-to-read LCD screen and rugged footswitches, perfect for navigating layers of loops in dim light or dark stages.

Unrivaled Looping Power in a Pedalboard-Friendly Size

Despite its compact size, the M303 Clone Looper packs an unparalleled amount of looping muscle. It offers up to three hours of high-definition, 24-bit stereo recording time and storage for up to 10 separate loop tracks. Create, stack and manipulate loops with the dedicated Record, Play, Stop, Undo/Redo and Loop Select footswitches. The Loop Select switch lets you choose between loop tracks on the fly, enabling you to build complex compositions in seconds. An innovative Looper Mute function gives you rhythmic control over your loops for stuttering, glitchy effects.

Intuitive Interface Keeps You in Creative Control

The M303's thoughtfully designed interface puts real-time looping control at your feet. A high-contrast LCD screen displays loop duration, tempo and track info, even on dimly lit stages. Rugged footswitches built to withstand heavy stomping give you hands-free control to start, stop, overdub, undo and select loop tracks. LED indicators provide visual feedback on loop and tempo status. An optional MXR Tap Tempo pedal (sold separately) allows you to set loop playback speed with your foot for rhythmic precision.

Roadworthy and Ready to Rock

Like all MXR pedals, the M303 Clone Looper is built for life on the road. Its rugged metal chassis and footswitches provide gig-ready durability for any looping artist. Powered by an included 9V power supply, the M303 packs premium components and high-end converters for crystal-clear tone, low noise and professional-grade sound quality.

Stellar design and sound..but is it dependable?

I grabbed one of these as soon as I was aware that MXR had brought a Looper to Market. The implementation of the half and double speed options + reverse using external tap tempo switch is a brilliant idea and works flawlessly. Expression pedal control for Loop volume is also a great feature and works perfectly. I was putting this thing fully through its paces in about 5 minutes without ever looking at a manual. Then I walked away for several hours with the looper powered on . On returning, the loop that was in memory had become a garbled, distorted digital mess. No controls would function on the pedal. A quick power off and it was back to normal. Use it for an hour, walk away for several...same thing. Ugh. My other Loopers don't exhibit any weird behaviour like this, you can leave them on for days on end. So, I returned it to my local GC and got a new one from the display case. Got it home and the green LED is dead and will not indicate playback. Ugh. Drove across town to another GC , picked up a third one. So far, this one isn't exhibiting any weird behavior, even after leaving it powered up for several days. If it proves to remain dependable, I would give this 5 Stars easily. I guess I better remember to send in that warranty! Even with the bugs (early batch problems?) this is an excellent looper at a great price point.

To much degradation

Sound quality turned to garbage quickly, and I wasn't expecting pristine loops. I just started using the looper on my DD200 delay- which sounds great!

    Very similar to the Ditto Plus, I personally have to have 2 stomp buttons on a loop pedal. Ditto,Electro Harmonics,and this MXR Clone looper would be my 3 picks for good loop pedals. Had this one for 2 days and really like it so far, I have been playing for 25 years, had tons of effects and consider this pedal very important on my pedal board, and loopers are a ton of fun along with being a great self gig tool. Great product so far!!

    So my experience is the first loop sounds fine but when I add layers or play over the loop my signal degrades. Sounds thin and spotty.

  • Does everything a live looper should

    I like simple interfaces, so this looper does it for me. I just needed something to grab a section of playing without having to scroll through menus or tap on multiple switches multiple times. I don't need drums or other bells and whistles, but this pedal does offer both speed and audio reversal functions (fun, but not required). For playing live, it works for my needs perfectly. It sounds great and easy to start/stop loops with two different buttons.
