Product Information

If you prefer to spend a little less money, you should take a look at the RC-5, the little brother of the RC-500. Starting with a melody or starting with the chords are just a couple of the infinite options we have with the looper.

While Boss may have missed an opportunity to add more useful effects (rather than ones I honestly can’t imagine using other than as a novelty), the RC-500 stands out as a happy medium for those who want to take their looping to the next level. The aux-in was nice so that, for example, you could easily play along to backing tracks from your smart phone. Solo artists/"one man/woman bands" are strongly encouraged to post, but all loop artists are welcome!I really enjoyed having the option of mixing between two tracks, the creative possibilities using this pedal are fairly endless. Plus, with stereo compatibility, you can go one step further and create your own stereo soundscapes - expand your sonic horizons. A major difference between the RC-500 and the RC-5 is that the former allows the simultaneous use of two tracks running either synchronised or independently, while the available memory stayed the same: both devices have 99 memory slots for phrases and can record a total of 13 hours of audio in stereo. They mention that it's very straightforward to use, pretty basic at first, and has a user interface that is easy to navigate.

Craft real-time compositions with two loop tracks, mic and stereo instrument inputs, rhythms, and inspiring Loop FX, all backed by premium 32-bit audio quality.Finally, the MIDI signals not only trigger audio files – they can also be used to synchronise the tempo with a DAW. you would have to stop everything on both banks and delete the whole bank to remove more than one mess up or unwanted layer. Use the two tracks independently for song-style composition, or together for rich multi-track textures.
