    14:36 Summary & Where To Buy
    In this loop pedal shootout video, we compare the main specifications of Boss's 3 newest loop stations. The Rc-5 is the most compact pedal, but still boasts a huge range of features such as 13 hours of stereo looping, a built in drum machine, 99 memory patches and USB connectivity, the RC-10 features all of this but also has a much more comprehensive drum rhythm section, whilst the RC-500 is the flagship model featuring 2 separate loop tracks and both microphone and instrument inputs.
    Although they each offer something a little different, all of these next generation looper pedals feature 32-bit digital processing, a huge improvement in sound quality over the older models. So if you were confused which loop pedal to buy, hopefully we can help you decide which of these models is the best loop pedal for you.

Is it possible to achieve this by switching memory banks (smoothly?) OR by muting/stopping all loop tracks (overdub) without stopping the rhythm using some ext. midi control?

    • @mikaelwills
      @mikaelwills 2 года назад

      I really want to know this aswell. With possibly the use of a morningstar mc6. Have memory write, memory up and down. Record a loop in memory one, hit write then memory up. If the rhythm is the same on the next memory will it continue playing during the memory change. And will writing it interupt play and can you memory up and down inbetween two loops while they're playing or do they stop

    Nice demo. My question is, do you need a separate acoustic amp for the drums to play out of if playing out of an amp using the amps distortion. Obviously you don’t want tinny distorted drums sounding like your distorted guitar. I have an SR 18 drum machine going into a California blonde acoustic amp from my RC1 and my guitar going into a Katana 100 to separate the sounds.

      Yes it really miss a volume contrôle for the batterie in the rc 500 you must adujst it every time because it's too loud. And also you cannot stop or adjust the reverb in the mic too if you put it in your recording loop. Really the menu of this rc 500 is not user freindly at all. Finaly i send it back...

    The RC500 is recommended for vocals.... buuuuut there ARE two inputs on the RC-10R. I'm sure an input for a condenser mic is best quality, but has anyone popped a mic into one of the two RC-10R inputs?

    • @renmad0078
      @renmad0078 Год назад

      I pop up a dynamic mic inside the rc500 but the very big problem went if you put reverb on effect in your loop you cannot adjust the amount of reverb in the mic it's completly link with the recording level and i have it alway too much for the mic. At least i send it back. I think maybe i will take the 505mk2 were all effects are totaly independant inside every track.

I have tried finding a global volume control with no avail. I ran a factory reset twice, with no change. I hate to sell it and pass on the problem to someone else, I also hate to take a $175 dollar loss! Any thoughts?

    Looping has been a feature of my playing since the early 1970s. I rarely use rhythmic phrases, preferring to make ambient loops as a part of my writing. These all seem to feature timed looping. I haven’t tried any of the Boss units to see if they play nice with my looping style. I’d appreciate any comments.

    • @ProfessorPflaume
      @ProfessorPflaume 2 года назад +1

      Drums don’t sound good on a guitar amp. The ideal blooper allows to separately send guitar signal to guitar amp and drums signal to PA or something. Or has a speaker simulation to send both to PA or Headphones. RC3 cannot do that afaik. I have the RC3 too… Cannot decide if I should upgrade and if yes which one to get. There is so much conflicting information about drum quality and userfriendliness. In this demo everything seems effortless and clear. But there are others that have trouble…

    • @ProfessorPflaume
      @ProfessorPflaume 2 года назад

      A and a solution for the gainy drums: Think the looper should go in the effects loop if available. So the drums won’t be distorted by the preamp…
      If no effect loop available the amp has to be clean and you could use an overdrive pedal in front of the looper…

    • @renmad0078
      @renmad0078 Год назад

      Same as you i buy a rc 500 and then send it back because it's not at all a user freindly menu. There are too many things to configure before recording. It's not at all you plug and play and record. Too many things that i do not like inside to be honnest. This new serie of looper boss are totaly a non sence for me. They are to complicate to use them as the old rc 3. It's really a pity it seems they do not give it to a guitarist and ask him how do you feel. Finaly i keep my old rc 3...

      I have the RC10R and use it daily for practice, jamming and recording, also on RUclips.
      The drums are really good but can get a little static if you play one style more than others. Cool thing is you can import your own drum patterns as well if you have them.
      Also, if you add a footswitch or two is basically works like an RC500, minus the mic input.

      @@MegaAluchi yes the pedal has quite a few blues rhythms although one of the rhythms for blues has an out of time intro, apart from that they are all good.
      If you import whole midi songs then yes they need to use a phrase. If it is just drums there is a User bank in the drum storage for about 10, i think would need to check how many!

      Do you apply effects such as distortion in this setup? If so, do you use guitar pedals or simply the katana settings? I worry about accidentally applying distortion/unwanted effects to the drum sounds

    hey, i want to use something to record a my rhythm track on, loop that, then play lead guitar over the top in a separate amp. can the RC-5 do this? is it possible to record a loop, then output the loop to amp 1, while I play in a separate amp 2 - I see their are 2 outputs?

      You can write the loop to a memory slot and then start it on amp 1.
