Loop Pedal with Drum Machine - Joyo OMB Demo and Review

- čas přidán 22. 08. 2024
- I you are looking for a cheap looper pedal or a one man band, Joyo sent me an OMB to show you so I put together some loops and had a jolly good mess around with it. It is a looper but with a drum machine. Its not the first of its kind but is it the best way to add a looper to your pedalboard?

I'm pretty sure it stands for "Oh, my bad", compensating for the lack of band members apologizing for their mistakes/forgetting stuff/not practicing, etc.
Well this thing won’t sleep with your bass players girlfriend either!
Who would!?!?
Really helpful video. I was on the point of returning it after a fruitless couple of hours last night. This helps A LOT, thanks.
From Leo: I like "one man band" . I already have the digitech Trio system with the optional extra switch pedal. It is really has a lot of features available, but that is the problem. By the time I find all the stuff that works and get all the settings figured out, I have lost interest or gone to another song. The JOYO you demonstrated is clearly limited, but it has exactly what you need for fun practice readily and quickly available.
Hey you two. I agree that the simplicity of this is beautiful
Bit late to the party. My frustrations with this looper sent me to search out this very helpful video. However. I can't get anywhere near the sound your getting with the drums. Yes. I'm only putting it through a preamp and monitor speakers but still, the canned hi hats just dominate the sound. Also trying to get the tempo right is a real PITA.
Orchestral Maneuvers in the Bark
That. Is. Excellent.
this is exactly what I was going to type. so much for originality...lol.
Oh bloody hell and I thought I was being original. You beat me to it you OMB!
(You don't wanna know what that stands for..)
I might have missed it, but how do you adjust the tempo? Also, is there a tap mode for the drums?
Andy, you were a smooth criminal on that latin groove. Well done!
Thanks! I had fun
It clearly stands for ‘Oh My Bdrums!’
Sounded really good, the drum sounds especially trough the interface sounded good enough to my ear.
Does it do any other time signatures like 3/4,6/8,12/8, 7/8 5/4? If not, it seems a tad limited
Of course. its only 4/4 but they could bring out a whole collection of time sigs.
I have just liked and subscribed to your channel because your videos are really good and interesting, your channel has got contents with great quality. I don't usually comment the videos, but yours deserved. Thank you so much.
By the way, is it possible to use that pedal with an acoustic guitar?
Glad to see you re-enthused!
Oh My Buns! This would make an awesome practice tool, gonna look into buying!
Man your lead tone sounds awesome !!
I think you need to fill as well as quantitization. And don't you need to send the output of a looper into one amp and the output of your guitar into another? And so you need some switch I think to switch the guitar from the looper into the other amp. Otherwise you're distortion is going to have to be the same on the rhythm and the lead.
What happens if you're late/early on your initial record? Does it 'gap' the loop and force your recording back onto the downbeat? How does a less-than-perfect loop length behave?
I don't have one, but I'm guessing that the gap is played every time the loop comes round. Like most "cheap" loopers, you have to be on your game, or that flaw comes round and mocks you forever.
@@castleanthrax1833 lol . My playing mocks me , I'm looking at my guitar just sitting there looking back at me , disappointed and disgraced almost ashamed of me , but playing with loops and backing tracks will help improve your playing , better than the tick of a metronome .
On My Buylist. I've been watching for something like this, if it get's the GG seal of approval it's as good as done! Pretty soon my entire rig is going to look like GG equipment, already have the katana as per your videos. keep em coming!
Consider me your personal assistant. Better keep your credit card handy
Great Review on the JOYO OMB Looper
I am looking to get one, but will put off untill I have moved from London to Dorset
I will check in again after your 40th as that is When I can start the move, Thinking of moving in after dark as I don't want the Neighbours seeing me moving in Amps and Guitar 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Oh, my, Buddha!
Okay, are you able to save the loops - with drums, in beat?
This video made me fall in love with my les paul again.
TheGuitarGeek it sounds killer. I just got a LP a couple months ago. My first in 19 years since I sold off my black studio. Looks similar to yours, but I have a satin finished 2018. Nice small pedal. Would love to hang with you one day!
How do you even fall OUT of love with a Les Paul in the first place?
Thanks for the demo. I've been eyeballing this since it was announced.
Also... Official Mediocre Beats
Hanging out sounds good!
I sold my Les Paul and got an SG instead!
I want one! Your latin ad lib reminded me of The Cardigans Life album. p.s. Switchy knob = Rotary switch :) :) And OMB can only be what you say whenever you make a mistake in a comical loud american voice. "OH. MY BAD!".
Thanks, where were you when I was recording this???
Cardigans Life album is one of the best things in life ever! :)
this thing is great playing out of your usual genre is kinds fun. fits on a board or in your hand..decent sounds considering
Nice demo. Do you use this through your effects loop or straight into the amp and if you are using a crunchy guitar tone, wouldn’t the drum sound be distorting as well as the guitar. Thanks.
Exactly. A looper pedal should be used in the effects loop for that very reason.
One more beer 🍺 what else. 😎🤘
Genius
I like how you think.
On my beat
Can it do a 3/4 time. Or 6/8
For the price this is going for, I'd go for the NUX Loop Core. Does this Joyo unit have an 'undo' feature? USB download upload? It really needs two buttons and also a 'bank' to save multiple loops. Joyo needs to sort out their website as well. No easy manual downloads for all of their products. Anyway, this looper seems quite over priced for the feature set.
I like the simplicity of this Pedal.
This looks like a fun practice tool.
EDIT: Origami Music Blitzer
Old money bills
Hi, does the drum machine detect what you've just started playing and adjust the drums and tempo? Thanks
Hey i have a question .. Iv got my 1968 Gibson les Paul going into my JCM 800 going into my Klon Centaur #203 going into my electric mistress going into my Yamaha 1604 mixing console and coming back out and then going into my Fender delux twin reverb going into my phase 90 going into my ibanez multi fx (turned off) going into my collection of boss pedals and then back into the JCM 800. Will this pedal work in my setup? And can I turn off the obnoxious cymbal sound?
I’m going to need more detail of your rig please. Which cables are you using?
@@TheGuitarGeek LOL rodam "pro series"
Obviously Mind Blowing as it will Open My Brain
One more beer! Cheers!
wahey!!
Nice n easy, plain English review mate - thanks ... I needed that as looking at getting my 1st looper.
Liked, Subscribed and Commented.
😎👍
Original Melodious Brit (the host). Great video ! Clearly an honest assessment.
Thank you!
how can you shift the drum tempo/bpm's up & down? ...and how do you know what tempo your on?
Use the tap tempo. There’s no display though
I'm using that Looper 🙄 and it's really nice and I like that it counts if you use the drums... But after such a long time I got soo tired of this midi sound. But except those with a build in EQ, which is more like cheating... Good drum comps are so incredibly expensive 😭🥺
Andy I like it but I think it needs a tempo control, Troy from Alantic City
"Orangutangs may bite"! for the win!! -- good one -- shot coffee out my nose
Careful with that!
These pedals are comparatively cheap in Australia.
Yeah I wish the drums were a little more hardcore for metal, or you could change the tempo with a knob.
Great Video as I’m in the market for a drum looper for practicing… OMB - maybe One Minor Breakthrough ?
Orchestral Musicians that Bark
good band name!
Perfect for busking.
OMB = Omnivorous Monster Babies
Thanks for a great video!! Very useful drum looper. How do you compare this one with the Digitech Sdrum?
You’re welcome. The sdrum is totally different . This pedal is a looper and the sdrum is not. The sdrum drums Sound much better IMO
Great Video man !! Greeting from Malaysia 🇲🇾 your friend from FB
Absolutely wonderful
Open My Brain. I like it, like you would like a fill switch but impressive. I have an old Vox Lil Looper. I actually put that in my fx loop on my amp (H&K Statesman) just so I can switch preamp gain settings on different parts. So I wonder if that would sound better on this with the drums then via the front input. Thanks Andy
It is more the guitar speaker that limits the sound in my case. It benefits from being full range
Can you change the beat after making the loop?
The Latin lead part was hella smooth
Thank you!
One. Man. Band - i agree they should have it bigger and a button to start and stop the drums. maybe features simular to Beat Buddy 2.
Can i run the O.M.B thru my Katana 100,like i did with a RC-1 looper pedal,just hook them up togeather/,because right now i cant do much with it,was thinking about trying to sell it,but would really like to get it working right,Thanks for any advice,Regards.
Obstinate Machine Belligerence ?? I would hope it behaves , but we all know how things really work (or choose not to) .
Yeah a deluxe version of this , possibly with USB to load loops on and off . In a perfect world there'd be 2-4 user slots for beats on the deluxe .
I suppose at that point though you might was well spring for a sampler/groovebox . Really this thing is pretty cool especially for the price .
Is there an on/off button or does it just power on when it is plugged in
Oil Man Blues. Good review.
I think I spent longer thinking about the acronym than the video is lol...
On My Bed
Because that's where it will put all the ladies who subscribe to me and watch me gig in front of huge crowds.
Hot dang that’s good.. best of luck man
How many loops can be stored in the pedal?
How long is each loop?
Thank you.
I like the product but how much is it even on the Joyo site it doesn't have the price of anything
Wow. Masquerade
Will check this out. Thank you!!
You’re welcome!
Oh my baby
One man band … thanks man 😊🎵
Enjoyed the review. Looks like a decent pedal.
Over My Budget.
hahaha. not TOO expensive
I'm not commenting anything at the end just because you told me to! Oh.. wait...
Wow that’s far better than my Nux Loop Core at a similar cost price. The drums are so much better. 👍 Ouch My Bum 😂
I have the loop core. This is better
There's malfunctions with Nux pedals is why they come out with Deluxe models of the same pedal. They don't get it right the first time
No USB port ? ?
How does this compare to the Nux Loop Core Pro ? - Digitech Trio + ? or the Boss RC-3 ?
Or beat buddy
Where is the tempo number? - need a digital readout to know which tempo you're playing.
i just subbed today and bought this b/c of your review. Orbital Mouse Biscuit? Cheers!
One may buy
oh me bees
One more button!
Quite a versatile piece of equipment! Does it have an output for headphones?
No it doesn't
Not sure if I get those knobs. How exactly do you change the tempo? Or is tempo changing too advanced feature for this device???
Using the tap tempo button
Ouch, my ⚽️ ⚽️!
Finally!!!
On My Bike, oh well great review!
All the drums please!
Gladly!
does it do 3/4 time? Or any alternate time signatures? Or is it all 4/4?
How to tap the tempo without turning the loop on and off? I am slightly confused. In general, but also about this feature.
+Matt Gilbert there’s a tap temp button on the pedal
ngl the latin vibe sounded more like your comfort zone than your actual comfort zone lol
OI MATE, BEER. That's obviously what it stands for.
Of course!

Hey @TheGuitarGeek would you recommend this or the beat buddy mini 2?
They are in very different price ranges. If you have the money go for the beat buddy mini 2
My beat buddy took a crap. Second week.
Did I miss the looping capabilities??? Can this replace a jam man or is this more to replace a digitech solo pedal?
I used it as a looper throughout the video. It’s not as fully featured as a JM solo
Can I upload drum patches? I need 5/8, 7/8 etc. Tks
sadly not
I'm trying to use mine and after I got a nice loop going, I tried to use distortion and it distorted the sound of the loop and the drums. How can I create a loop and then use distortion without distorting the loop itself? I noticed you used distortion in your video and it didn't distort or affect the loop you created.
Hey! Put the distortion before the looper. So - guitar into distortion looper. Record the loop with the distortion off and then turn on the distortion after the loop is recorded. Hope that helps
@@TheGuitarGeek thank you! It worked. Appreciate the reply and info. 😁👍
What does the Bar knob do?
How do you remove the count-in function?
Why do people ask stupid questions like can you control the tempo? For Pete's sake watch the entire video then look up the specs if you're not sure.
Ok I’ve got to restructure my gas budget to get a Ola Molla bolla or what ever that thing is called 🤣🤘🏽🎸🥁 ♾
Ha ha ha
Does it need a battery 9volt on cord
Good review
Yes, needs 9V
You said there’s other pedals previously that did the same thing. Which pedals? Thx
TheJofrica try the digitech trio
I think it stands for, only my birthday.
Thanks for using a drum machine as background music. Gives the guitar melody you play more quality.☠️
I can’t really take the credit but thank you
Is it stereo. In out
You cant set the metronome ? What they were thinking ?
You can... I missed it out...
this is cool !
Cheers
Is there a tap tempo on it? Would seem odd to have only one BPM.
The indicator light doubles as a tap tempo button.
@@kingstumble thanks.
Once more, boy!
With pleasure!
I luv it
How do you adjust the tempo on the flippin thing?
With the tap button
Oh My Bad...as in, "I didn't tell you about the 20% discount code, available to everyone subscribed to Guitar Geek, when purchasing the Joyo OMB? Oh...my bad." :)
I wish that were true!
OMB = On My Board
But is it??
efek drum yes..?
