The Walrus Audio Xero Polylooper redefines live looping with two fully independent stereo channels, offering unprecedented creative control for performers and composers. Each channel provides 3-minute recording, unlimited overdubs, and real-time manipulation via speed adjustment (0.5x–2x), reverse playback, and individual panning.
Here are some of the pedal’s most intriguing features.
- Intuitive Gesture Control:
- Tap/hold/double-press footswitches for recording, undo, speed FX, and channel toggling
- External dual-stomp compatibility for simultaneous multi-channel control
- Three Sync Modes:
- Sync: Time-aligned loops
- Unsynced: Independent lengths
- Poly: Polyrhythms (3:4, 5:7) with MIDI clock support
- Performance-Ready Visuals:
- Multicolor LEDs for instant status feedback (recording, playback, FX)
- Auto-bypass when idle preserves dry signal
Advanced Integration
- Stereo I/O with per-channel panning
- 1/8″ MIDI In/Thru (Type A) for sync/remote control
- USB-C for firmware updates
The Xero excels at complex layering and on-the-fly remixing, bridging the gap between live improvisation and studio precision. Whether crafting polyrhythmic textures or practice loops, its gesture-based workflow eliminates menu-diving.
A game-changer for loop artists seeking flexibility without complexity.
