Hotone Skyline Wally Looper effect pedal

General

Any guitarist should have a looper pedal, even if it was solely for practising. A looper can also be a valuable tool on stage though. Looper pedals come in all sizes, but generally, guitarists don't necessarily need an expansive loop station. It is hard to imagine, but the Hotone Skyline Wally is a full-fledged looper with a capacity of 15 minutes, without a limit to the amount of overdubs. Whether you use it at home or on stage, the Hotone Skyline Wally Looper is sure to be a valuable addition to your pedal board.

Operating the PS-6 Harmonist

Many of the functions of this looper pedal can be controlled via the on/off switch. This single control allows you to start or stop recordings, play them back, and record overdubs. There's also an undo function for the last change. Depending on the function you use, the 2-colour LED indicator will either blink or shine in green or red. You can see the manual pictured on this page for an elaborate explanation of the functions of this pedal. The Wally has separate volume controls for the input and the output, and a tempo control to adjust the speed of your loops. You will have all you may expect from a standard looper in a pedal that is not much bigger than a matchbox.

Hotone Skyline pedals

Making ever smaller effect pedals is really in vogue. Hotone sets itself apart with their Skyline series because, even though these pedals are small, their controls are still big enough for pleasant use. This pedal has the most-used knob on the back, which - together with its large size - allows for easy adjusting and large range. Hotone Skyline pedals offer you the ease of use of a full-size pedal in a ultra-compact and rugged housing. Additionally, the Skyline pedals are True Bypass pedals and come at a very attractive price.

• Please note: Hotone Skyline pedals do not have a battery compartment. To use it, you need a separate power adapter or daisy chain.
