Thanks very much Mr. Gallagher for making this series. I've had the 600 about a week now, and am realizing it is complex and powerful. Wrote Sweetwater and Roland yesterday advocating for a course of some kind on it. I could and probably will fumble around on this for years getting all the features down, but your series helps and is the best I've found!
I just got mine today. It took me 3 hours to get my bass to play only through the amp I set the output to but when I recorded a track it played the bass through my guitar amp and pa. I figured it out by setting the bass to only play through that output only on track 3. Was very confusing at first but now I see that it has a lot of control and I didn’t know how to set it. Anyways was a fun 3 hrs but I’m glad I figured it out. Lol
Hi, could you be more specific on the solution? I have the same problem. Guitar and bass are routed to separate amps but come out of the same one when looped in single mode. I can’t find a fix.
@@travisj.tritten5304 I can try. Seems you have the routing correct since it plays out the amp you want when playing but not on the loop. To fix this you have to hit Menu> Output> Routing> Track then you have to set the output for the bass to tracks 1-6 . Just pick one or multiple. I did track 3 then when you loop bass it will only record and play back the bass through track 3. Its not easy and not user friendly. There might have been a better easier solution but this worked for me. Sorry this might be hard to understand. I wish I could leave a voice message as it’s harder to explain in writing. Also I’m doing this from kind of memory since once I set it I saved and haven’t been back to dive in the menu much. Try this first and see if it helps. Also I’m not in single mode so not really sure how that changes the menus.
So I just got mine and having the same issue. The fix that’s been suggested seems like it limits you greatly if you’re wanting to use series looping not just multi. Like, it seems if I record two instruments on one track, there is no way to separate their outputs anymore essentially? I don’t understand why the loop output setting overrides the routing. Cuz everything is perfect till you actually play the loop back. Is this just a limitation of the unit? It’s a huge one if so.
Hey Ross Just found out you channel , THANK YOU , it is so helpful and to the point man you help me a bunch. A tiny nitpick of 'criticism' , I suggest doing some different thumbnails for the videos , it is slightly hard to distinguish between them. Amazing info man thanks again
Thanks so much! And yes, totally agree with the thumbnails. I'm just too lazy when it comes to some things I guess. I am looking to upload some new content very soon though and will definitely change the thumbnails to hopefully make things a little more clear. Cheers, Ross
Thanks for this great video. Still trying to find the ideal set up on the 600. I have it slaved to an RC 300 and then use the 600 to loop keys, bass and fiddle. Trying to get everything at the right volume and EQ'd is a process.
Loop-meddelande Hi, I’m just about to set up my recently purchased rc-600. To save me some time with the setup I thought I’d ask you for some help. The wizard of rc600 😃 When performing I use my voice and an acoustic guitar. Out from my pedalboard and in to the mixer, I want 4 signals: acoustic guitar (mono), my vocals (mono), looper signal (L&R). I want this setup to have the possibility to mix and eq the signals separately. On my old set up I used a “Panic button” pedal, which routed the vocal signal to the looper when recording harmony vocals. Is there a way in the rc600 that allows me to instead of using the panic button run the vocal signal direct to the looper and whenever I want the signal to be recorded address let’s say pedal number 9 to trigger this routing, otherwise the signal runs straight through..? As a thank you I’d gladly donate some coffee money to you. 😃☕️ Thanks
Hi Matte, thanks for your message. If I understand correctly, you want to have a pedal assigned to bypass recording your vocals to a track? If this is correct, you've got a couple of options; 1. You could run your vocals into an XLR A/B switcher and then run out of that into both XLR inputs on the RC-600. One that would record to the tracks, and one that would go straight to the designated outputs. This is probably the easiest way to do things, but without an XLR A/B, it wouldn't be that simple, I'm afraid. 2. If you purchase an 2 way XLR splitter, this is a more affordable option. You could then run your vocal mic into the splitter and, again, run out of that into each of the XLR inputs on the RC-600. You would then need to use a couple of assigns to toggle between the 2 XLR inputs (perhaps mic mute and/or mic level) effectively using the splitter as an A/B switch and then giving you the option to record to your tracks when you wanted to, and then bypass the loops when you just want your vocals to go straight to the outputs. I hope this makes sense? I'm sorry there's no easy way to do things with the current firmware anyway. I take it you're all good with routing your vocals and acoustic to your mixer okay? Cheers, Ross
@@RossGallagherMusic .. thanks for the quick response. 😃 I wish there would’ve been a easier way to do this on the RC-600. Boss should consider this feature since a lot of users are singers. Anyhow, looks like I’m gonna stick to my Panic Button pedal, which is a A/B switcher. Thank you so much
Hi Ross, thanks for this and all your content. I have one question: I play in single mode, thanks to your other tutorial, and I have 6 buttons set up as 1 Intro 2 Verse 3 Bridge 4 Chorus 5 Break 6 Solo or whatever I wonder if I can submit guitar and voice on 2 single mono channels and all the loops on a third channel. This would help the venue mixing as needed. Do you know if this is possible? Cheers, Erik
Hi Erik, just to clarify; you would like your live guitar and vocals to go to their own individual mono outputs, and all recorded loops to go to a separate output? If so, then yes. However, you wouldn't be able to separate the instruments once they have been recorded to a track. A common issue when playing in single mode. Basically, if you have vocals, guitar and a bass being recorded for your verse on track 1, you can't split the output for each of those instruments again to their individual output, if that's what you'd like to do. It is frustrating, but how the looper currently works unfortunately. Hope this helps. Ross
Thanks for replying. so I am using each loop with a backing track created in logic, so, each individual loop is never going to get changed. it is just going out as backing track for guitar and voice. So, I guess it would mean that I can use Input 1 (vox) out on output 1 input 2 (guit) out on Output 2 and all loops on various tracks out on Output 3 am I right? thanks heaps! @@RossGallagherMusic

Ross how do you connect your Katana to the RC 600? Do you just line out the Katana. I would like to run R and L left from my dual Katana Artists in stereo expand mode but haven figured it go line out of each Katana because the line out is uded for stereo expand.
I use the send and return at the back or the Katana, send to the instrument input on the RC, and output of the RC to the return on the Katana. Then use the line out to go to its own channel on the desk. Check out my latest series of videos to show you how I connect things. Hope this helps. Ross
Hey Spike! I'm using the Mooer Footswitch Toppers in the video, but I now use the Sonicake ones, if you want to check them out. I'll post both links below.
im getting mine in a few days to stuff around with stuff for shits and giggles i guess so if i was to just plug this in through my send and return of my guitar amp would i have to adjust anything in the loop stations settings to make it work or it is depending on the input and output i plug it in
Thanks for this excellent video mate! If you get a chance, would you be able to let me know what input gain you're selecting for your keyboard inputs? I have a synth that has outputs on balanced TRS (I think its sub outs maybe unbalanced, so another option there I guess, if that's going to be better?), and am just wondering what I am best to use to get it into my RC600? Should I use TRS to TRS cable from the balanced outs on the Synth, or TS to TS from the unbalanced sub outs? Should I select line or instrument for the input gain on the 600? Thanks again mate, appreciate your excellent content!
Hi, Ross. Thank you for your videos. They are super helpful. Keep going. I have a question to routing. Context: in my setup I play with a band, and from RS 600 I play piano samples, and some other guitar parts. But I was thinking about sending a click to the drummer from RC, and it was working fine until the drummer asked to put down my main guitar a bit low, but then I dont hear it properly. Here is my question: is it possible to route ONLY CLICK to the headphones, or other output, so that my guitar is muted in that output and sent directly to the amp while the drummer hears only Click?
Hey, thanks for your comment. To answer your question; I do plan on making another video very soon about how to send a click, as it's something a get asked about quite a lot. You've got a couple of options; 1. You can change the Rhythm to a 'click' sound and route this to a specific output, including the PHONES, and then send this to your drummer. 2. You can record the 'click' to a specific track (as long as you're not using all 6) and then send this 'click track' to your drummer through one of the selected outputs. Hope this helps. Ross
You can route your instruments to specific outputs and have Input FX applied to them on the way through, or you could have Tracks routed to outputs with Track FX applied. I've made another couple of videos that might be able to help you out... ruclips.net/video/zV5y-aBkBUw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/rAhl4Ivu4gw/видео.html
@@RossGallagherMusic I really can’t thank you enough for your quick response and help. I got the RC 600 yesterday and will be using on a gig tonight. Only because of your videos am I able to do this. Thank you again and best of luck with your career.
I think now that I have a great understanding of the rc 600..ive lost the ability to plan a loop ahead of time..sounds stupid but I am serious..back to David Shanhun or google what to loop.
Do you know if there is any way to route instrument 2 to just the left side of the main output? I'm using an electric guitar as inst 1, and it is going to two separate amps via main outs L/R. But I only want my acoustic guitar (inst 2) to go to my left amp (left amp is Boss Katana Artist and has an incredible acoustic setting). By the way, totally buying you a coffee! Thanks for the amazing videos!
Hi Alan, thanks for your question. I do believe that is possible and next time I get chance, I'll take a look and get back to you about the process. Thank you so much as well for those coffee's, it's greatly appreciated!
Is it possible to save the routings you have set up on the system level? Mine only seems to save to a specific memory, when I change it all the routing is back to factory default. How can I make the routing apply on the system level and not the memory level?
Hi Ross, I'm very thankful for your content. I think it's in this video that you've mentioned that you can add an mp3 player into the midi (selecting the "line" option..). I'm wondering, is it possible to plug in to the Boss the sound from a song playing in my laptop this same way? Or what would be the best way to do so? I would like to make external music go in through the Boss and then out the same way as the other looper inputs (mics + inst). Also, do you offer 1:1 guidance on the RC-600?
Much appreciated Patrick. The thing is, I want to use music directly from a streaming platform and have it go through the RC600. Not sure if that's technically possible and how. Thanks @@patrickploenzke489
The way I was thinking is, have my phone connected to the RC with a jack, but don't know how to set up RC so that it sounds. Or if this would have to be a MIDI connection instead of a jack, or if this even matters.
I haven't tried that myself. Perhaps if you were using a DAW and recording from a separate interface. Although I wouldn't like to say for sure I'm afraid.
@@RossGallagherMusic I have some soft synths that can output on a USB channel and I want to use them without using physical 1/4” jacks. Basically I want a noiseless system.
Can the separate output jack LEVELS be set "per memory" (rather than per system) so that you can have a different signal volume-level coming out the same output when you switch a different memory?
I will make a video on this very soon, but basically, run your guitar straight into the front of your amp, then from the FX loop 'send' runa cable to the instrument input on the RC, then run another cable from your chosen output on the RC back into the FX loop 'return' on the Katana. That way you'll be able to change guitar tones on the amp without it affecting the tracks on the RC-600. If you don't use the FX loop, every time you change tones on the amp, this will affect the signal coming into the looper and produce a very unpleasant sound when playing your tracks back. Hope this helps. Ross
Great Video! Thank you. Question: Can you get away with not using a mixer for live gigs and just run everything out to the Speakers? You mentioned you use a mixer for playing out. Just wondering about why you use the mixer. Trying to simply my set up. I have not bought the Boss RC 600 yet, but my set up now is complex with Ableton, audio interface, laptop etc. I have used the RC 300 in the past and thinking of going back to an RC 600 for live gigs if it can make life simplier.
I may have just found my own answer in the comments below. It sounds like I may need to use the mixer to level out the volumes to a suitable level with loops v non looped sound?
There RC-600 has a mixer built in so many users make their adjustments and run straight into speakers without going into an external mixer. I just like to be able to have the option to make slight EQ adjustments, instrument levels etc, on the fly, which is why I mainly run into my mixer first.
Help please...I've got my routing set so that only my guitar outputs from main L to my guitar amp. Everything else goes main R to my PA. Works as it should pre playback, but as soon as I play back everything is going to my gtr amp and my PA. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Mikael, once you record to your tracks, it's not possible to seperate the audio to specific outputs. You would have to use a specific track for each instrument and route the tracks to whichever output you wish to use.
Are you working in single mode by chance? I think I've figured out a bit of a long winded work around but it won't be suitable for everyone. I'll post a video on it soon!
@@RossGallagherMusic tracks 1-3 are multi, the rest are single in some of my memories. Other memories have just percussion (HPD20) as multi and everything else is on single. I really like the tone of my acoustic guitar amp (AER 60/4) and so want to send just guitar to that amp and then have everything else go to my PA (BOSE L1 compact). Would be nice if I could send different outputs from RC600 into different channels on my mixer (QSC touch mix 8), so I could EQ, Pan, etc. each instrument further with my mixer. Don't know if that's possible. I'm sure I'm overcomplicating things. Currently things sound a bit muddy with everything going just straight to my PA.
I think the majority of FX are pretty decent to be honest. Of course, It depends what you intend to use it for but certainly for live performances, it's good enough.
If you wanted to route certain instruments or tracks to a different speaker system, amp, mixer channel, etc. A good way of having more control of the overall sound production. Check out my latest video which takes you through how to use all 6 inputs and 6 outputs.
Также большой вопрос, почему нельзя настроить входящий FX с out FX. Т. Е. Я записываю трек и могу подкрутить всё что мне нужно в рамках трека и сразу в рамках входящего звука. Я так понимаю, что для полного звучания, нужно просто купить микшер и поставить педали после босс, чтоб накрутить звук в микшер. 8 каналов(включая наушники) Короче всё это конечно интересно, но слишком сложно для мозга обывателя. В итоге, всё эффекты нажо выключать и пользоваться просто медалью записи как лупером. Я ожидал большего от этой непростой педали. Я уже сломал мозг по настройке этой чудо техники😢😅😂. Опять же, что касается настройки и обновлений. Ждать, видимо ещё пять лет) ... Продолжение следует😅

Is it possible to save the routings you have set up on the system level? Mine only seems to save to a specific memory, when I change it all the routing is back to factory default. How can I make the routing apply on the system level and not the memory level?
Within the MENU settings, you are able to decide whether specific settings are saved to MEMORY or SYSTEM.
Hi Ross, I'm very thankful for your content. I think it's in this video that you've mentioned that you can add an mp3 player into the midi (selecting the "line" option..). I'm wondering, is it possible to plug in to the Boss the sound from a song playing in my laptop this same way? Or what would be the best way to do so? I would like to make external music go in through the Boss and then out the same way as the other looper inputs (mics + inst).
Also, do you offer 1:1 guidance on the RC-600?
Just put the songs on a track on the RC 600. No need for external mp3 player.
Much appreciated Patrick. The thing is, I want to use music directly from a streaming platform and have it go through the RC600. Not sure if that's technically possible and how. Thanks @@patrickploenzke489
The way I was thinking is, have my phone connected to the RC with a jack, but don't know how to set up RC so that it sounds. Or if this would have to be a MIDI connection instead of a jack, or if this even matters.
Do you know if it possible to use one of your USB channels as an input ?
I haven't tried that myself. Perhaps if you were using a DAW and recording from a separate interface. Although I wouldn't like to say for sure I'm afraid.
@@RossGallagherMusic I have some soft synths that can output on a USB channel and I want to use them without using physical 1/4” jacks. Basically I want a noiseless system.
@@RossGallagherMusic Thanks for sharing your tips/tricks BTW. Saved me a lot of time.
Can the separate output jack LEVELS be set "per memory" (rather than per system) so that you can have a different signal volume-level coming out the same output when you switch a different memory?
Absolutely!
@@RossGallagherMusic Thank you.
Hey Ross, can you explain me, how I put the cables from the rc600 to the katana ? Guitar normal in to the amp?
I will make a video on this very soon, but basically, run your guitar straight into the front of your amp, then from the FX loop 'send' runa cable to the instrument input on the RC, then run another cable from your chosen output on the RC back into the FX loop 'return' on the Katana. That way you'll be able to change guitar tones on the amp without it affecting the tracks on the RC-600. If you don't use the FX loop, every time you change tones on the amp, this will affect the signal coming into the looper and produce a very unpleasant sound when playing your tracks back. Hope this helps. Ross
Great Video! Thank you. Question: Can you get away with not using a mixer for live gigs and just run everything out to the Speakers? You mentioned you use a mixer for playing out. Just wondering about why you use the mixer. Trying to simply my set up. I have not bought the Boss RC 600 yet, but my set up now is complex with Ableton, audio interface, laptop etc. I have used the RC 300 in the past and thinking of going back to an RC 600 for live gigs if it can make life simplier.
I may have just found my own answer in the comments below. It sounds like I may need to use the mixer to level out the volumes to a suitable level with loops v non looped sound?
There RC-600 has a mixer built in so many users make their adjustments and run straight into speakers without going into an external mixer. I just like to be able to have the option to make slight EQ adjustments, instrument levels etc, on the fly, which is why I mainly run into my mixer first.
@@RossGallagherMusic Thank you so much!!
Help please...I've got my routing set so that only my guitar outputs from main L to my guitar amp. Everything else goes main R to my PA. Works as it should pre playback, but as soon as I play back everything is going to my gtr amp and my PA. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Mikael, once you record to your tracks, it's not possible to seperate the audio to specific outputs. You would have to use a specific track for each instrument and route the tracks to whichever output you wish to use.
@@RossGallagherMusic geez, really? That’s a pita. Thanks for your reply though.
Are you working in single mode by chance? I think I've figured out a bit of a long winded work around but it won't be suitable for everyone. I'll post a video on it soon!
@@RossGallagherMusic tracks 1-3 are multi, the rest are single in some of my memories. Other memories have just percussion (HPD20) as multi and everything else is on single. I really like the tone of my acoustic guitar amp (AER 60/4) and so want to send just guitar to that amp and then have everything else go to my PA (BOSE L1 compact). Would be nice if I could send different outputs from RC600 into different channels on my mixer (QSC touch mix 8), so I could EQ, Pan, etc. each instrument further with my mixer. Don't know if that's possible. I'm sure I'm overcomplicating things. Currently things sound a bit muddy with everything going just straight to my PA.
Is There a good decent spring Reverb on this boss rc 600 ?
I think the majority of FX are pretty decent to be honest. Of course, It depends what you intend to use it for but certainly for live performances, it's good enough.
whats a sub output for?
If you wanted to route certain instruments or tracks to a different speaker system, amp, mixer channel, etc. A good way of having more control of the overall sound production. Check out my latest video which takes you through how to use all 6 inputs and 6 outputs.
Также большой вопрос, почему нельзя настроить входящий FX с out FX.
Т. Е. Я записываю трек и могу подкрутить всё что мне нужно в рамках трека и сразу в рамках входящего звука.
Я так понимаю, что для полного звучания, нужно просто купить микшер и поставить педали после босс, чтоб накрутить звук в микшер.
8 каналов(включая наушники)
Короче всё это конечно интересно, но слишком сложно для мозга обывателя.
В итоге, всё эффекты нажо выключать и пользоваться просто медалью записи как лупером.
Я ожидал большего от этой непростой педали.
Я уже сломал мозг по настройке этой чудо техники😢😅😂.
Опять же, что касается настройки и обновлений.
Ждать, видимо ещё пять лет)
... Продолжение следует😅
