    I watched 20 different videos about this pedal today after I picked up this pedal. They all show some basics but I had to watch 20 videos to learn about half of what the pedal can do. I really wish I saw yours first because not one video covered everything about it. Yours was the first video I saw that showed how to switch to the auto mode. Thank you thank you thank you.

    I agree with other comments, this is the best explanation of how to use the RC3. It provides important details which are not on other tutorials, and not always in the manual either - many of which can result in serious obstacles until you learn them - and I did, finally, learn them thanks to Reid.

    The BEST review and demo I have seen on RUclips for the Boss RC3. I have a JamMan Stereo Solo XT that has been playing up in auto record mode. It only kicks into record when i attack the strings and play hard. So looking for a new toy and been eyeing the Boss RC3 looper. Im sold now. No showing off or running throgh just a few features. This was a ripper instructional video that highlighted the features. Well done and what a shame your hits aren't higher. Many groovy thanks mate.

    I got my pedal yesterday and the guy was so generous he threw in around ten mini to medium cables including 2 custom fender ones for free, the pedal he sold for 90 euros.I have a looper on my Axe fx 2 bit it is limited to only 30 seconds.I had an RC2 years ago and sold it since the Axe fx2 had one, I regret selling it.BUT. This RC3 is a great pedal which gives me a lot of inspiration for creating more loops. And this video covers everything about it, I will use everything except for the 'one shot'. Thanks a lot.

  • @sirrobinofloxley7156
    @sirrobinofloxley7156 Год назад +2

    The thing I like about it the best is, if you have a semi-acoustic guitar, with this pedal you basically have an unlimited band, if you know what you're doing. The versatility of the semi-acoustic guitar, for percussion, if it has a mic fitted, which is essential, you can definitely make enough sounds to sound like a band. All that just layering on one channel makes this looper pretty formidable and crucial for making new music on the fly.

    Just a note to say how much I appreciated your video. Loved the way you showed all the features of the pedal. I've just bought one today and now I feel like I just about get away with not reading the manual. The manual is so small too that I can't really read it, so resorted to downloading a PDF version. The Boss site is pretty good too and it's great to be able to transfer backing tracks or rhythm tracks to the memory slots (appear as folders when connected to your PC). Lots of free content to fill up some of those slots with and I guess you could put your own stuff in there to play along with as long as the files are in .wav format.

      Hey man, can you answer a question I have? Can you please tell me if when we transfer our recordings to the computer, is it normal that the pedal drum beats, which we use in these recordings, are not transferred to the computer?
      I mean, I end up just having my guitars and/or basses with no rhythm/beat on my computer savings.
      It's normal or is just another anormally that my old pedal have?

When i pressed Write, it showed DL, then i pressed tempo and it triggered it. I didnt see u do it that way in the video though. When i tried the way u showed it on the video it wouldnt trigger but it would play the rhythm etc.. I got to it to work my way, but whats the offical way, or did u do it my way off camera ?

    Random question; I just got a used one of these and it didn’t come with a power cord. A 9V battery is working right now but I tried using a generic DC 9V power cord before I did that and it wouldn’t work. Do you think I actually have to use a specific cord from BOSS like the pedal says in small writing?

    Thanks for the video. I have a question. I have a boss ME 80 connected to a boss rc-3. If I want to loop a rhythm part, I select a clean sound or patch on my me-80. Then if I want to play a lead sound over that recorded loop, I select a sound/patch with some overdrive. But what happens is, when I recorded the clean part and then select my overdriven sound. Suddely my clean loop will then play back with that overdriven sound (or whatever sound I may then choose) . Does anybody know how to fix this? It may be confusing I hope it makes sense. Thanks!

    Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge on this pedal. I do have a question. I was able to get a drum beat for an entire song from my computer onto the pedal and when I hit the pedal it plays, but if I don’t hit the pedal twice to stop it, it’ll play over again. Do you think the one shot would prevent this from happening? Or if putting it in one shot, will it go to the next number or phrase? Any info on this would be awesome. 😊
