this is a tough video to follow along with... is there a concise video?

Eric, this video is over 2 years old but it helped me out a ton with setting up my own RC 600. Thank you!

Can I add just a simple kick sound to the rhythm section? It doesnt have one like the rc300 had. Thank you

Do you really have any other options? There are no quarter angle XLR cables, so if you're singing & playing guitar, I don't know of any other way it can be done.

How can we arrange just for that memory chanel to record the rhythm only? It seems like all memory locations are effected by this change. Thank you

does the recorded track play endlessly?Is there a setting for that? I want to have a different drumbeat on each track to play along with (as long as I want), but so far they just play as long as I recorded them, which is annoying

thanks for the examples. Really! It saves so much time to not reinvent the sound when someone has already did the labor. I gig out with the RC-600 and just starting to experiment with the rhythms as opposed to making my percussion on guitar. Example Holden Bare Mrs Robinson KZbin. I share only for the example point.

Thanks so much...exactly what I needed

I like less thinking is best

also, on playback the rhythm most often starts when any track plays, so the recorded loop is playing at a slight timing difference with the actual rhythm speaking…

you’re double tracking the kick some how… maybe an open mic?

If it works for you then great, but seems really impractical to have your looper pedals way up on top. No way this would work for me.

The auto record @ 9:40 is what I’ve been looking for!

Thanks mate. Very practical and informative. I’m gonna try and copy this lay out.😃👍🏽🇦🇺

Hey man, excellent video. You are the reason why I kept the RC600. I am having trouble laying down different beats on one memory. I tried doing exactly what you to get two different rhythms but dor some reason I only get one rhythm which is the last one I recorded. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Love it!

Thank you so much, now i know how it works (after a month)... isn't it better NOT to record a drum pattern to a loop to stay flexible with the drum kits/pattern or rythmn speed or if you want to transfer it to a DAW and put better quality/worked out drums on the tracks?

BOSS RC-600 Не нужен !

Just got rid of my RC-600 because I'm sick of Boss's antiquated interface... Picked up a Headrush Looperboard and now extremely happy with how smooth the workflow is... Boss/Roland needs to change alot of their products to touch screen interfaces like they have incorporated into the Phantom...

thanks, learnt a few things here

Hi Eric, great video, thanks! just have one question about something that I tried yesterday but was not able to make work. Let's say you have 2 tracks, #1 for the verse and #2 for the chorus and at the end, you repeat the chorus a couple of times, and then you want to have a repetition only with the percussion or rhythm so the audience can sing along, and then a final repetition of the chorus with the track 2 and the rhythm on. So I tried pressing button 9 in mode 1, for the "Start/stop all" function and it worked to stop the track, but when I pressed it again to restart it, it always sent me to track 1 and wouldn't resume the last track that was playing....is there a way to do it? I know I can press the particular start/stop button of track 2, but I was wondering if such a central start stop button existed, because, you know, I could have multiple tracks in parallel and want to stop/start all at the same time. Thanks in advance

Never knew about using the Roll function.Thanks.That's a good tip..I'm using a Boss BMIDI-5-35 - Type A MIDI to 3.5mm TRS Cable - 5 foot, from the looper to my DD-200. And Using a 1/8 in. TRS to TRS to the SY-200. They are now both in perfect BPM sync with the looper. 👍....That would work with your BlueSky too..

Well realised dude. Thanks for the great tutorial and well done on that eurithmics cover. Simple yet percise. Please do keep these tutorials coming. The user interface on the emazing rc600 is just horrible, just so un intuitive.

OMG dude...just get to it!

Hi mate, I made I just did a review of this pedal. I am actually going to return it. Mainly because I prefer multi mode and the ability to change rhythm patterns is not possible. You can only change variations, which there are only 4. This is my video, let me know if you know of a work around. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX2Qd2B4nNV8mpo&ab_channel=BlakeKeep

Is there a guitar tuner? I'm folling crazy for find it! thank you for help.... 🙂

Could you please tell me if it’s possible to control the track level individually ?

Eric Thank you so very much for your informative tutorials. This machine is a monster and it’s folks like you that really help unlock it’s deep dark secrets. Please keep on keeping on, and thank you so very very much

Hi 👋 I can't seem to find a way to turn off the click/tap tempo/rhythm. On the rc300 it was on the outside next to the tap. I can't seem to find it anywhere which is really odd. Surely ppl like to free loop without a click or tapping in a tempo? Please help

I think Eric that the Trio + that you show is much more friendly to musicians, this Boss Rc is too complicated, even if you learn to handle it, each step you take it´s too long, and yes, the sound of drums and percussion can be clean with it but it lacks that general thread, that groove and those timely variations, not to mention the dynamics, that the Trio + in my opinion achieves much better. For looper professionals and people who have lived playing versions, it may be fine, but it is not to go alone with it (I see in the video that you take your effects separately, normal) because their effects, what I've heard of them in the videos, leave a lot to be desired. On the other hand, it doesn't surprise me that people stop using rhythms with it and prefer to strum the guitar with muted strings due to this that you mentioned at the beginning, and I have returned to point.

Hi Eric, first of all congratulations for the video. I have been very interested in those ideas that you launch in your own compositions to use background recordings. I would only like to ask you about the optimization of levels, in the manual it is not clear, it only recommends copying the same settings from the chart. My main concern before buying it is how do we make sure that the sound that comes out of the Rc is not saturated, because once in the mixer or in the sound card this is easy to fix with the Vu Meters, but if we start from a sound that is wrong we will not be able to do anything. Thanks.

Man, you're all over the place.

Thanks for the vid, could loops and rhythms be synced in the software? I have cubase and ezdrummer so maybe it's better to create prerecorded loops using those? A vid of how you used your day would be awesome 😎

Very useful, thanks.

How do you have rythem playing without it recording? Is there a way to use the rythem section like a drum machine or do you always need to be recording it into a loop?

Hi, the 11:00 where you adjust track levels, I dont have that option, where did you set that so you can do level per track? Thanks

There’s a certain point where automation doesn’t promote the making of music… in the time spent doing all this. 🤷🏻

Wow bad ass man!! I've gotta take some time to dive in to this. Thanks for the video 🤘🏼

Gracias 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

If you're having trouble with loop lengths not being multiples, the solution is the do the song in 2/4. That's how I play Africa with its odd number of bars. It's in the rhythm options.

Thanks for this video, I hoped there was a simpler solution (why cant one assign a pedal to change pattern or genre?). But I will try this too :)

Thanks for your post. I have the Boss 505mk2. Since the software is similar, your videos are very helpful. I look forward to seeing more about downloading DAW recordings. Thanks for your time and sharing.

Hi Eric, Thanks for your posting. I am finding the RC600 to be maddeningly unintuitive. Maybe you can give me some advice. Here is what I am trying to accomplish, and , for the life of me, can't seem to get to work. Seems to me this should be a given for this device. Goal: In a live looping session, using only my feet, I want to be able to record 2 measures on Track One, 2 measures on Track Two. and 10 measures on Track Three. I then want to be able to trigger Track 3 so that it comes in automatically at the end of either Track One or Two, by using the track change / end of loop command. So far, when I set this up, Track Three will start somewhere in the middle of the loop. It needs to start at the beginning. (The only way I've found to make it work is to turn 'Loop Sync' off on Track Three, but that requires a manual adjustment, bending down and using my hand. I see no way to change Loop Sync on/off with a foot switch assignment. I have tried playing with 'quantize', 'tempo sync', and even creating a template. There's got to be something I'm missing. Please, please advise. Cheers

Enjoyed Your video..Picked up a couple 3 things to try..Had the RC-50 and 300..Have a Bunch of WMA's from those on the computer..I'll checkout Sweetwaters site about the Boss Tonestudio...THANKS ! Man-Do I Miss Paper Manuals..I have 3 full cards from my Trio+..If that thing would have had MIDI-and Seperate Bass-Drum and Loop outs.I'd still be using it.A Buddy and I did a lot with it using the Song Function..Then-Recorded onto a DAW..And Adding onto that...MIDI Sure would have been Nice...If you have a Drum Machine.Try sending MIDI from your RC-600..And Using the RC-600 Rythem with it.I was doing that with an Alesis SR-16 OR a BeatBuddy...Both have Fills.. Allman Bros./Grateful Dead Style Double Drummers.. 👍 👍

Hi, I found your video very helpful. But I'm wondering how to do the drum fills between tracks. Is that possible?
