NANO LOOPER 360
Compact Looper
Congratulations on your purchase of the Nano Looper 360! The Nano Looper 360 is a
small, extremely easy to use looper with a total of 360-seconds of loop recording time. Not
only that, the available 360 seconds can be divided into 11 different Loops, so you get the
most out of the available memory! You can think of the Nano Looper 360 as your very own
“Loop Locker.”
WARNING: Your Nano Looper 360 comes equipped with an Electro-Harmonix 9.6DC-
200BI power supply (same as used by Boss
®
& Ibanez
®
: 9.6 Volts DC 200mA). The Nano
Looper 360 requires 90mA at 9VDC with a center negative plug. Using the wrong adapter
or plug polarity may damage your unit and void the warranty. The Nano Looper 360 does
not take batteries.

– QUICK START GUIDE –
RECORDING A LOOP
1. To record a Loop; simply select an empty bank and press the Footswitch once. The
REC LED will light solid and recording begins immediately.
2. To stop recording the loop, press the Footswitch again once. The REC LED will turn
off, the PLAY LED will turn on, and the loop will begin playing immediately. The
MEM LED will also light solid, indicating the presence of recorded loop memory.
3. All Loops play indefinitely. Each time the loop repeats, the PLAY LED will turn off
briefly.
4. After a loop is recorded, the length is subtracted from the total loop recording time.
5. Note: if the full 360 seconds of Loop Recording time is reached, recording will stop
automatically. The REC LED will turn off, the PLAY LED will turn on, and the Loop
will begin playing immediately. The MEM LED will also light solid, indicating the
presence of recorded loop memory.
STOPPING & STARTING LOOP PLAYBACK
1. To stop loop playback, press the Footswitch two times quickly.
2. Note: the REC LED will turn on together with the PLAY LED during the first press.
Both LEDs turn off during the second press and playback stops immediately.
3. While stopped, press and release the Footswitch once to start playback. The PLAY
LED will light indicating the loop is playing.
RECORDING AN OVERDUB
1. To record an overdub, make sure a Loop is playing back. If a loop is not playing,
press the Footswitch once to begin playback. The PLAY LED will turn on and the
loop will begin playing immediately.
2. To start recording an overdub, press the Footswitch once. The REC LED will turn
on, together with the PLAY LED, and audio will be recorded on top of the original
loop. No volume loss will occur to the previously recorded portion of the loop.
3. To stop overdubbing the loop; press the Footswitch again once. The REC LED will
turn off, and the loop will continue playing along with the overdubbed audio.
4. Overdubbing will never change the length of the loop.
5. If the loop repeats during overdubbing, the REC LED and PLAY LED will both turn
off briefly. The Nano Looper 360 can overdub indefinitely, allowing you to
continuously overdub new audio onto your loop.
6. After finishing an Overdub, the UNDO-REDO function is enabled. You may undo,
then redo the last Overdub as many times as you like.
UNDO-REDO FUNCTION
1. The Undo/Redo function can only be initiated while a loop is playing back. Undo/Redo
cannot be performed during Overdub, Record or Stop modes.
2. To undo an overdub (remove the last take) during loop playback, press and hold the
Footswitch for 1-second. The PLAY LED will blink twice and the previous overdub
will be removed.
3. To redo an overdub (restore the last take) during loop playback, press and hold the
Footswitch for 1-second. The PLAY LED will blink twice and the previous overdub
will be restored.
