GMC Forum _ GEAR & PRODUCTION _ Boss Rc-2 Loop Station

just got this little wonder and its great for practicing you can record loops (upto 16mins) stored in 11 different locations, the sound is great (no changes or any electronic distortions) and its got some drum beats stored inside..so it works nicely as a high-end metronome too. and its pretty easy to use!
but it goes through batteries like m&ms

dude cant you order it online? i'm sure there are loads of sites and ebay users that ship to Belgrade.

I've been thinking of getting that pedal, because sometimes I like to jam over some riffs, but I'm lazy to connect to my toneport and load reaper etc.
Is it possible to record a backing and then record again over it? (I guess it is)
But, would it be possible to choose wether you want to actually save the modifications? I mean, if I record a riff, and then I record on top of it and I don't like it, is there an option to not save it, and preserve the original riffs?
Hope I managed to explain it, it's easy but hard to express in a post

Well it is possible to (somehow/barely) order from here, but I risk highly to not come to my address at all.

you can record loop over loop over loop (so you can put your riff and then the bassline then the solo etc...) whilst doing this you can erase loops and keep the original riff but i am not sure once you save everything switch off the pedal and then come back to it whether you can erase a particular 'channel' within a loop...i only got it last week so i'm still fiddling around...i'll try this tonight and let you know. one thing i do not like is the manual, but the pedal seriously rocks!

Can't wait to get one

Cool I'm interested into it too, I think will be really useful for one-on-one lessons, usually at schools to teach
Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Apr 22 2008, 11:13 AM
I agree Joe, this pedal makes live teaching more effective too because you don't need a live band as a backup.
Also this pedal is great for exercises and jamming.

Awesome, enough for me!, I'll put it on my wishlist for future upgrades

I bought mine a few weeks ago but actually had the time to sit down and use it for the first time, today. Absolutely brilliant! Makes practicing on your own so much more fun!

I dunno if that was pointed towards me or anyone else, but yeah, I'll give it a go. It won't be a fantastic one but at least I'll write an overall thingy. I'll probably have it done by next week.
