What's weird is that there's an unswitchable, global noise gate on that can't be turned off. You can hear it clamping down if your noise floor is at just the right level. It's annoying because despite setting every noise gate off, it still stays on. The only way to get around this is to raise the level so your noise floor exceeds the global gate. So my question, is there a hidden setting that would allow me to turn this off?

i tried this, but when i turn it off and back on it goes to previous settings i set, and before that it forgot the original settings leaving all my fx slots blank, am i not saving it right?

is 1 thru sixteen the buttons? is it 1-9 on 1 and 1-7 on 2 or is it 1-8 on 1 and 1-8 on 2 im afraid to mess it up

Hi is this why I’m having this issue ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYOcpHekfryKl6ssi=5FplAbaVpeBbvMEP

Hi Angus. Great video, many thanks for sharing. Would you know if the Boss Ms-3 supports normally opened or normally closed? I am planning to build a 2 switch...one to control tap tempo and the other to be assigned to some other parameters. Many thanks for your time. Brian

I wish certain track could be assigned certain input fx bank. So that if i play certain track, corresponding fx bank in applied to input only without affecting the playback. Is there a way to do that?

What about when you import loops that have a tail how do you do?

Simple answer to a simple question - thanks!

Wow man thank you

Thank you for this info... What is your thought of the sound quality of the ad/da converters in the rc600? Is it worthy of being an audio interface compared to something like the Focusrite? Thank you.

Thanks a lot for the list! 🙂

Great video, I am new to the mc8 and love my boss pedals. This has been helpful and very much appreciated. Is there any way to set a double switch normally open momentary with an alternating green/red led? I would like to use a dual switch to control the mic mutes of the rc and ve 500.

I need a tutor, at least for an hour or two, from the beginning. Is there anyone available?

I just acquired the boss dd500 delay. I would like to build a bank up bank down for it. Like the boss fs7 pedal. Am i correct in assuming this is the same?

I’ve had pretty good luck with this unit, EXCEPT currently it keeps changing to random memories as I’m performing or overdubbing. I’ll be in Memory mode and suddenly another memory starts up unexpectedly, ruining my performance or wiping out my overdubs before I can save them. Has anybody ran across this problem?

nice...I hope the next firmware update brings some "targets/functions"" like switching between patterns/genres (drums) etc....but man, after 6 months of grief/doubts/hate/hope and watching many,many vids (+manuals)the sky finally clears up....this little red beast is fun!

Can you re order the memories afterwards?

Thank you Angus for your helpful video. I have an issue. Do you know how can I save into memory routing track settings?

How would i do this with a DPDT switch with 6 lugs on it?

I've been a VL3 user from the beginning and quit happy with it but began looking for other means of harmony and choose the VE. Still not convinced it the better effect but needed to cut down on my floor pedal space to make room for the helix. Your tutorial here was brilliant. Just now set it up and was very pleased with the result. Thank you.

So I'm confused. For example, if I want to edit a record setting so that the quantize feature is set to "measure," and I want this to apply to all tracks and memories, how do I do that?? I know how to get into the setting to change it, but I can't figure out how to save it. If I click enter and exit at the same time It then pops up the first memory (01), and then I can click enter again and it looks like it is executing the setting change. But I want that change to apply to all tracks and all memories.

So the boss RC600 needs a normaly closed momentary switch?

Wonder if we are related. Any relatives from Nova Scotia ?

Thanks for the answer !! (it mean we need a Di box for stage)

Would a toggle switch be too much to control the Open or Closed switches?? Btw great clear video

thank you, that is very useful to know

I like the idea of changing the Track Select button to a Mode cycle, but is it possible to change the colour of the button dependant on the mode?

Hi Angus, thanks for this video! I used your technique to try to turn the RC600 into an 8x8, but to all intents and purposes, it seems like only 7 'true' outputs are possible. It seems that headphone stereo output cannot be delinked on the device, unlike main output and Sub1 and Sub2, which can be delinked. (When I click ‘menu’, ‘output’, ‘setup’, I can delink the main output,Sub1, and Sub2, but I can’t do the same for phones.) So, I can get tracks 1-6 all outputting individually in my DAW using input 1-6. However, whatever I choose to put through the phones (I’m doing guitar and microphone), comes out of input 7 and 8 in my DAW. Which basically means, I only really have 7 outputs, not 8, because 7 & 8 are identical. Curious to know if you are aware of any solutions? And also looking forward to more RC600 related videos from you :) All the best, cheers.

Is there a way to set a "global setting" for every track to remember what i put in the mixer, drums are always too loud when i go to a new track

These are great suggestions!!!

I would like to ask for help...with boss rc 600 I want to occupy the 2 ext pedals with fs6/7 to assign the memory up/down on one and the management of the internal drum machine on the other...the question is...to check now the master volume with a pedal could I connect it after the outputs before going to the mixer? a stereo of course ... the mixer is on the pedal board nearby ...

"with this I had to leave it as the blue, because I wanna use that increase, and you can't use an increase as an assign, +U can't use an assign with increasing patches".. (those were you exact words at around 1:30) Can you translate that into something that we can understand? I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I'm asking because I really do want to know how to change the colors... but if you want people to understand what you are saying, then you will have to explain it better than this. Thanks.

What is a "Patch"? (On footswitch 2, U say U can't do a custom color because U have it "increasing the patch to patch 9... "? What does that even mean? Is the word "patch" used in the owners manual or parameter guide?? I do not understand what U R saying.

I’d like my RC to accept midi temp and not sound all glarbled up when receiving midi sync from an external source. It’s ruined so many of my loops.

Nice informative video on this subject, thanks!

Hi, does anyone know how to change the color of the outer ring of "the orb?" (bright blue led lights are terrible for the eyes.)

Actually the title should read "changes and fixes I WOULD LIKE TO SEE".

Hi I also hope that boss solves these problems on rc600. I would like to ask you if you can record with this sequence without having problems of misalignment of the recordings: 1) I record track one with accompaniment chords, starting the recording on the first quarter in downbeat, for four measures. 2) I record a melody on the second track which must start 1/8 earlier than the chords recorded on the first track. Having done this, listening to the recordings again, it happens that after the first reproductions in which everything plays in time, it happens that the synchronization begins to get lost until the two tracks no longer play in time. Do you also have this problem? It would be a disappointment to find that the rc600 cannot handle loops with recording starts at different times. Thank you very much, congratulations on your channel.

I would like to make a one switch FS-U5 PEDAL .how do I do it

They hid this spec in the manual...thanks for this....if you put a balanced signal in, you lose gain, meaning more noise...as well as the possibility of RF on the outputs

Hi Angus and everyone! I need your help !! I load my Wav's to my rc600 but when I want to play them, . my loop says unsupported file How can i fix this? Thank you !!

I hope BOSS sees this video! Great ideas

Did they fix your #5 issue with the new v1.2 firmware update?

Hi there, where did you buy those colored caps for the rc 600 switches? Can I get them on Amazon or eBay? Thanks in advance for the feedback!

Hello - I've had no success transferring the midi drum patterns I made on the Alesis SR16 to my RC600. It will record the audio output, but changing the tempo of that sound bad. How do you record the midi output of the drum machine? It is receiving the midi signal in the RC mixer but the record track light flashes red.

Hi Angus, I respect your knowledge on the Rc-600. I am not much of a looper gut but I do perform regularly solo or with a small band. I am looking for a pedal to trigger prerecorded stems from my music. Do you think this pedal is a good option? Looks like potentially I could load a drum loop + Bass line + pad and trigger them individually or together. That would be awesome solo! But also when I play with the small band, I would love send a left mix to the PA and a the right side with click/cues to the band. I would love to have one device that I can focus on learning and then be able to play both solo + band shows with more layers. What is your opinion?

Does anyone know where do I find those colorful buttons to buy? And what is the name of it?

Hey man, hope you’re well!! I had to start a new YT coz my old Google account got hacked, not ideal but the way of this modern world 🙃

Thank you

Thanks for this. I never understood why the toggle color option existed if it isn't retained when you set the the switch to perform a function. So if I understand correctly, you have to give up functionality of a whole switch to set its color, but this can be useful for indicating which memory bank you are on? I can see how this is useful. But I would just rely on the bank name/number in the main display rather than lose a whole switch to get a color indicator. It's weird to me that the switches are each capable of 7 colors but you can't just set those colors to switches with functions enabled. Appreciate your showing me an actual use case even if it's not what I wanted.
