Inspiration often strikes when one is playing their instrument without an agenda in mind, sometimes even absent-mindedly. You're just noodling around, and suddenly, you come up with a simple, yet distinctive chord change, or a complex riff that could be the beginnings of a good song, or would fit in perfectly with a song your band is working on. It's sooooooo good, and so fresh-sounding that you are certain you won't forget it. Yet mere hours later, you play it again, and something's missing, a note, a chord, maybe just a mere inflection, and whatever made it special now eludes you. Frustrating, right? I'm sixty years old. I began playing instruments when I was about seven years old. Over the last fifty-three years of my musical life, I simply cannot count how many times this has happened to me. By the time I might have even set up to record it, *POOF!* It's GONE. Now that piece of music will float around until it strikes someone else. The muse must be courted, or it will move on to the next musician! THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED TO ME IN OVER FIVE YEARS! Why? The TC Electronics WireTap Riff Recorder has a permanent place on top of my amp, at the very end of whatever signal chain I am using. I plug in my guitar, a keyboard, or a bass, and play away. The very SECOND a flash of creative inspiration occurs, I step on the pedal, play the still-fresh bit of music, press the button again, and I am DONE. No fuss, no muss, no bother. The high-quality WAV files can be loaded into your PC or Mac via a simple USB connection. You can also use their smartphone app to download, manipulate/ and rename the recordings via Bluetooth, as well as using the WireTap app to record further clips onto your phone. This little pedal had improved my songwriting by leaps and bounds, because ideas I might not have taken the time to record in the past are now saved with a simple step on the pedal. This pedal is a must for me, and it may be for you as well. PS: I bought my first WireTap in 2016, and it was lost when a vindictive ex kept a bunch of my equipment. It was $100 then. Imagine my surprise when I went to replace it in 2022, and it only cost FORTY DOLLARS!! At that price, I am going to get one more to give as a gift to my best friend. Get one – you won't be sorry!

I have a lot of pedals and 2 amps for stereo with a 5 band parametric rackmount EQ in the FX loop, with 4 mics (one on front and back of each) for recording. I got tired of trying to crouch over the pedals while trying to play the guitar and turn knobs at the same time. Play, guess at turning knobs, play again, adjust again... It takes hours to dial in everything. I needed something to put at the beginning of the pedal chain that would record the dry guitar signal and play it back on a loop while I dial in everything and decide which pedals to use, so I can hear the changes as I make them. This does just that. I don't need an actual looper because I don't need a seamless loop, I don't need overdubs, I don't need to save the files or transfer them to the computer. I don't need the 8 hours of storage space that this has. It really should have a level control, though. But it does play back the recording at the same level it was recorded, and sounds as close to the actual guitar signal as a digital recording can. True bypass, so I don't have to disconnect it when not in use. I tried 2 other cheap loopers first. One was good for 3 hours, then it started distorting everything (the loop and the guitar signal when bypassed). The other cut a lot of low end and brightened the high end, so I couldn't accurately set levels and EQ with it altering the base tone that much. This does what I need it to do. I just wish I didn't have to pay this much for it, since I just need it to do a really basic function.

This pedal is a gem!! 8 hours of recording time add CD quality 44.1 .. fantastic tcelectronics does it again! It's great for ideas or even REAMPING! imagine recording your guitar parts and plugging it into different sound sources and being able to test amps pedals without having to replay things over and over on your guitar! I even play to a click track record it all my guitar parts plugged it into a studio and dumped everything onto the guitar track channel ... I want to record my guitar live placed it at the end of my pedalboard and recorded a three and a half hour show on the unit what are the best pedals out there it requires your imagination and creativity anyone who gives it less than 5 stars is feeble-minded in dim-witted!

I had high hopes for this pedal, the idea is great. Like an audio notebook, excellent for saving and sharing musical ideas. But the app is so bad. The app crashes every 5 minutes, won't sync with recordings, can barely stay connected to my phone and keep creating zero second audio files and won't let me delete them. Before buying this device look up the app in your app store and read the reviews. Many people have been upset with this pedal since 2019 and they still haven't fixed it. TC electronic this is a bad bad look for you. I love the idea but your refusal to fix the product lost you a customer. I will be returning this pedal soon for a refund.

Bought this as a gift for my husband, he said, "The WireTap does exactly what I wanted it to do. I can now keep track of those ideas that come organically while noodling around. Which is great for someone who can remember that they were playing something cool two days ago, but not necessarily remember exactly what they were playing. I admit it, I'm old and the memory ain't what it used to be. It's also great as a practice aid. Putting a file in Adobe Audition I can see when I am playing ahead of the beat, behind the beat or right on. It's very enlightening. Haven't explored the WireTap app much yet, but I can say that it's nice to be able to use Bluetooth to transfer the files and not need yet another cable. Definitely would recommend it to any guitar player."

The pedal itself is great. I mostly use it to record a quick idea for later. I also use it to re-amp tracks when I’m messing around with recording. I’m deducting stars due to the terrible app. I gave up trying to use it, when I try to transfer files from the pedal to my phone the app crashes 100% of the time. Thankfully the pedal has a USB port and you can just drag and drop your files on to a computer or tablet. But they advertised the Bluetooth features as being a big part of the value of the purchase, so shame on them for leaving their app unattended for years.
