Thanks for watching and enjoy!
It blows my mind that someone/Boss thought of and created all the options that this pedal does. Incredible. Thanks for showing how to navigate it!
Great work guys!!
Thank you for this video! I was using the wrong cable on FS7 and that was why I could not use CTRL 1 and 2. Bless you, sir!!!!!
Hello, very good tutorial. Please, if you can make a tutorial in which they explain how to control BOSS RC5 with BOSS GT-1000 pedalboard switch
Is it possible to do silent clear without the external switch? Can you clear from playing or recording mode, without stopping first?
You can clear a loop while its playing if you long press the foot switch for about two seconds. Still not ideal. There is no way to instantly clear without an ext controller which is the biggest weakness of the RC-5 imo.
Hello, is it possible to use an external foot switch AND a volume pedal?
No !
Can the control out of the MS3 act as the external control?
Is there a way to use ctrl 1 &2 for Variation a/b ?
It's possible that you do a video series for the RC-10R ?
Thanks so much
The RC-5 is broke in regards to external controls. I have a little midi pedal hooked up and the options in the midi controls for Rhythm Fill or Variation Change but they don’t do anything or when you get the Variation to change it won’t change back. So I thought hey I’ll just get a normal footswitch but it turns out half the controls are taken away for the footswitch operation as opposed to midi.
Great video! But no matter what I do, the "track level 2" or "memory level 2" does not work with my boss expression pedal. Any advice to get expression to simply volume from 0 - 100 ? Only TRK Level 1 works which is ALWAYS volume from 0 -200. Super frustrating. Thx ahead.
My rc5 keeps giving errors and won’t download the update drivers. Or it just rests in the middle of a song. What is up?
OK I give up, how do you set the drums to output B.
Is there a way to play a click track while a loop is playing? I am trying to send my loops to a mixer and speakers, and a click track through a pair of headphones so the drummer can hear the click track in one ear.
I plugged in my expression pedal to control the tempo. It changes the tempo faster or slower , but has only one setting, not changing tempo gradually, and there is no return once the tempo has changed. Is something wrong with this?
is it possible to plug in both dual footswitch and expression pedal? If I can only plug in one of them, perhaps I can clear the track after using the expression pedal to turn the volume to 0. Then you won't hear the annoying playing of the loop before the track can be cleared, right?
I'd like to set the loop volume softer, so I can play louder on top of it. You have mentioned that using the expression pedal and track Level 2, you can set the volume range only up to the preset level. But how does it work if I am playing/looping live and not using saved preset track?
Boss, What are the input and output impedance specs of the RC-5? They are neither listed on website nor in manual.
1M per Input, 1k per Output as listed in RC-5_reference_eng01_W.pdf. Downloadable on the boss website.
Nice work gents! 🤙🤙😎
Does this ONLY work with Boss footswitches? Or can I hook up, say, the channel changing footswitch from my amp and use it to control this pedal? (It's a Hotrod Deluxe... so I NEVER actually use the dirty channel).
Hi, I’m not familiar with loopers and stuff! But taking now lessons from a teacher.. and he uses an looper a lot! For showing the exercises. But he uses an boss ME50. I think this looper will work perfectly! I own a boss katana MKII 100 combo amp.. can somebody tell me how to set it up the best way with my guitar? I have no external pedals or something! Thanks in advance.! 🎸🤘
If the controller on A is memory slot up, is there a way to make it go down?
very helpful !
Am I missing something? How many user questions below have BOSS actually answered?
Great job. Now RC-500 ;) microphone problem for eg.
I hit like. Great job. Very informative. Do you have any tips for: adjusting the Volumes of Loop layer's ? (example: if I recorded 2 guitar parts and a bass guitar part ) - I know the drums are separate. Appreciate any information.
How about how do I connect it to my windows 11 PC?
Good video!
I like 2 fs 5s they free a port on the power supply and less battery’s needed if busking
Hi, may I ask if its possible to assign an FS7 differently per memory on RC5? for example in memory 1, I want to assign FS7 as my Tap Tempo(A) and Rhythm on/off (B) and on the other memory, I want to assign FS7 as Play/Stop(A) and Undo/Redo (B)? Would it be possible?
amazing thank you
1 question here!
Let’s say I set the footswitch to “MEMORY INC”.
If I’m playing memory01 then press that footswitch (so it changes to memory02), will it continuously play memory02 right away?
Or I have to press the pedal again to play that memory02 loop?
If it plays right away, I could use memory01 as the verse section, and memory02 as the chorus section.
This is a killer feature for me and I can’t see anyone demo it. I really wanna know if it works before buying the RC-5 + footswitch combo.
You said something similar at 10:20 minute mark, but didn’t demo that after.
Thanks in advance!
Have you had any joy as this is what I want to do
I have a rc5....no instruction come with it
How do you control the variation A/B?
This!! I cant find that info anywhere...
@@slinkyfrets I’ve learned that this can’t be done on the rc 5. Gotta get the rc 500 for that feature
@@pattillo21 Interesting... Not even with MIDI? So what is the point of the fill between variations?
@@slinkyfrets I’m not sure. I didn’t keep it long enough to find out. I was so disappointed so I returned it and got the 500
@@pattillo21 Yep, looking at the midi command list it's there. You happy with the 500? I can't make up my mind....
I must say...I'm a bit disappointed in the limitations of this pedal to be controlled by midi.
What the hell are you talking about
