Boss RC600 - The New Go To For Looping

[@leonpfields9100]

Got one arriving tomorrow... EXCITED!!! ; )

[@BDX2BDX2]

I'm fairly new to loopers. Going solo. Went crazy. Got the RC5 last week. Saw the RC500 has 2 loops and a mic input. Got that. Been having fun with them soo far, though thought for that kinda money what could I be missing out on hence my discovery of the RC 600 this morning. I ordered it, it'll be her Wednesday and the other two are being returned. Soo excited to explore it's capabilities !!!!!!

[@dan1one]

..... and I thought I was impulsive. Here I am going through your same journey. But have not purchased the first one. I am just ocnsidering all of them and keep entertaining the idea to get the next big thing.

[@anthonykenny1320]

god on you Hugh a great demvid straight to the point clear and great playing will get mine tomorrow ive had em all rc 20 rc20 xl rc 3 rc300 rc 500

[@SirCrashaLot]

Any issues with RC 500? I had all the old ones too, thinking of 500 since it’s a two track.

[@anthonykenny1320]

@@SirCrashaLot not really worth it it’s quite tricky to sync the tracks Probably RC50 is a better option but definitely none of the older ones which were 16 bit samplers whereas the 50 series and later are 33 bit and it makes a world of difference

[@etmon5]

Nice review...I have one on hold. Been waiting for this new issue.

[@Guitarsands]

Thanks, looking forward to more about this unit ...

[@zammusic6198]

Does this have a Voice Harmonizer like the Boss EV-8?

[@KunchangLeeMusic]

This looks amazing

[@RyanMartinWeddings]

Thanks for the video! I have one on preorder and have been checking around regularly for videos on the rc 600

[@tomsaxbydotcom]

Hello. I was wondering - is it possible to assign the function of a foot witch to “solo” a track with the rc600? As in press a button and all tracks will mute except one ? Thanks.

[@ChrisClaytonLoop]

At 0:25 and 4:50 you turned on a track effect that went crazy, then you switched to what sounded like the radio effect. What was that warping crazy thing? And then you turned on an arpeggiating effect. What was that effect? Still waiting on mine to come in, but I'd like to know the names of those effects now so I can find them quicker when mine comes in.

[@KatieDwyerMusic]

Following! I would love a video going through setting up the presets with custom effect toggling...

[@uugr3]

That's an effect from one of Boss delay pedals. I think it was introduced on the DD-20. Pretty cool. I think it might even be called "warp". You'll find it when you check out any new demos of new Boss delays. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZfSZXediK1-pdE

[@ChrisClaytonLoop]

Yes, it's the Warp effect that does that spiraling swell sound before going to the radio effect. Super fun to use. I forgot to look for that arpeggiating effect at 4:50sh

[@WoozleEffect]

I'm hearing mid-February 2022 now, for Canada at least. I'd love to be able to upgrade my 300 on my Twitch stream.

[@deniscassiere]

Hi, I just wrote to Roland to confirm the output routing you describe here. But unfortunately they say that it's possible only tracks routing, not inputs. Would you please clarify? Id love if the input/output routing worked the way you explained. Thank you.

[@beenay18]

Wish rc 600 had settings to set number of times a loop repeats and I could set the order of tracks in which the tracks plays automatically. Would't it be the next level for looping devices ?

[@GOD_BLESS_THE_BEATLES]

Can you demonstrate the quad cortex and the gt1000 while using the RC-600?

[@patxiwan]

Great video! Do you know which power bank I can use for busking with the Rc-600?

[@greendrinkguy1882]

How did u do that effect in the beginning at 26/27 seconds where u made the pitch fly up +out ??

[@alfieholloway]

Can you track verse, bridge , chorus ? Different sections?

[@mattmueller1921]

Good question. I know that’s a key feature of the boomerangs

[@alfieholloway]

@@mattmueller1921 thanks for your reply. what are the boomerangs? Does that mean there is the possibility to do different sections or not?

[@alfieholloway]

My apologies. He did say you can do verse chorus and bridge

[@marceloghiasalazar7883]

@@alfieholloway how??? I can't find the function to do it

[@bluenotgreen63]

Everytime I watch these I see them stuck on one straight play with no bridges or chorus lines…. ever. I enjoy my simple RC 1 looper and It stands to reason that a change from verses to chorus line changes would bring all the sound to ground zero from every loop that you have administard. It would be nice. I just never see it.

[@Vincenade]

Thanks for your video! very clear and inspiring! I am currently using RC300 with Voicelive 3 extreme (TC-Helicon) for Vocals. What is your feeling about RC600 for Vocals ? (does it allows adding reverb/delay/double/harmonies ?) many thanks !!!

[@beenay18]

How do i record midi drum input in rc 600? Rc 600 only records unusable faint sounds.

[@ElVagabundo777]

Hello. I have a problem. I bought a new Boss RC 600 looper. On my computer I have songs made on my old Boss RC 50 looper. How do I make the RC 50 wav files work on the RC 600? Because so far the RC 600 looper shows the message FILE NOT SUPPORTED. And I have a lot of trouble, because there are 10 songs that are not easy. RC 600 wav file and RC 50 wav file. But in the RC 50 I mostly have MONO files, or is that a problem? And some settings need to be made .. tips. Please. I have a recital in a few days ..

[@MusosCornerAustralia]

The BOSS RC-300 will display "unSupportFormat" if you attempt to import an audio file that isn't in the correct format. The RC-300 accepts stereo .WAV files that are 16-bit with a sample rate of 44.1kHz. Audio that was purchased from an online music store such as Amazon or iTunes, or ripped from a CD are usually MP3 or m4a audio files and will not import into the RC-300. You can use iTunes, Windows Media Player, Audacity, or other free programs available on the internet to convert these files to .WAV. Refer to your program's documentation on how to perform this conversion. If you're sure you have a 16-bit stereo .WAV file at a 44.1kHz sample rate, and it still won't import into the RC-300, then the file may have hidden embedded metadata, or "tags," that are causing the error. This can happen with files that have been exported from DAWs ("Digital Audio Workstations"), other audio programs, or sample libraries. You can strip this extra information from the file by converting it to Apple Lossless or FLAC format. After removing the information, convert that file back to .WAV. once again.

[@ElVagabundo777]

@@MusosCornerAustralia Thank you very much . This is very valuable advice.

[@MalcolmRobbins]

Can this also work as a USC audio interface to record into a daw on laptop or ipad

[@tommyaudio]

how come nobody says how many loops (phrases) are allowed per channel/lane?? can we do 3 overdubs? i read 6 but the language isn't clear if they meant the 6 channels u have

[@michaelgraham9774]

Does this thing help keep the loop on time? I've been using the hold function on my Boss delay as a looper and it's pretty hard getting certain things to be perfectly in time

[@TheNollu]

It’s got what looks like a pretty decent visual metronome, but end of the day it’s how you play that determines whether you’re in time or not

[@LuizMartan]

Hi nice vide, I use a Voicelice 3 and love vc can put a parametric Eq to the vocal and acoustic guitar, and harmonies! Can you tell about if RC600 have some similar ? Best regards

[@tommyaudio]

do u know if the tap tempo is using decimal points like the rc300? i hate how my 300 lands on numbers like 108.3, instead of just a simple 108. really hoping the 600 doesn't do this!

[@ourclarioncall]

I have a question 🙋‍♂️ As an example , Let’s say you have recorded guitar parts on 3 different tracks Can I turn these on and off at any time just by pressing on the main buttons at the bottom or do I have to press the track select button to move over to a specific track before I can turn it on or or off ?

[@beenay18]

Its a shame that I cannot assign different input fx banks to different tracks, so that corresponding input fx would automatically activate when I play different tracks. What is the point of looper if you cannot do that. How am i supposed to change the track and the input fx bank at the same time. I bought this looper so that i would be able to do that. But it cannot even do such a simple thing. Is programming such a basic and essential function in a looper such a hard thing? Can anyone suggest me a work around?

[@jguitarloop]

I have a RC-500 and I'm wandering if the problem I have with it remains in RC-600. When all tracks are in Play Mode SINGLE and Loop Sync ON so I can play in sync with the internal rhythm all tracks must have the same number of measures. Otherwise when the a shorter track ends and next is a longer one the loop doesn't start from the begining. It's a problem for me because in general song verse/chorus/bridge don't have same size. Can you please check this?

[@RobertHolota]

The same problem for me.Any news about it?Maybye it needs quantize loops function.But it is possible with this new one?

[@jguitarloop]

@@RobertHolota my question waits for an answer for 3 months now. Hope you have better luck. I think that Boss probably ponsors this reviews offering the equipment and that can lead to partial opinions. If it's not the case, please give us a direct answer.

[@StickMartin]

@@RobertHolota I think the newest firmware update fixed this.

[@visionnaireunicef2141]

Hi its a very good video :). I have a question, i am musician and i use a pedalboard with a lot of effects like Proco Rat (it's a overdrive). When i play a song i can hear my guitar with a distorsion on my speaker for my voice.... i know how to send a loop on different output, but i dont know how to send my "normal sound" only on my amp when i play without loop. Do you have a idea please ? :)

[@ahchv]

Great review thank you! Is it possible to plug more than just two microphones!?

[@michaelrooze278]

You could probably use an xlr to 1/4 cable so yes

[@gat1gigs782]

i just traded some gear for one of these, im kinda intimidated by it,but outta the box its a blast!

[@boabglen]

appreciate your content. I'm struggling with this and can't find away around it unfortunately. I'm in mode 1. I want bank 1 to be receiving my drums from an external source. I want to be able to play that at a short loop say of 4 beats. I want that to be the bpm of the track so I set that first and it saves me looping drums for say 4 x 4 beats. I then want to go in to bank 2 and set a loop length say of 12 bars. now this is where it gets tricky and can't figure it out. say I've recorded guitar rhythm in bank two and now want to add other parts like harmonies or bass parts on the guitar. I want to add that to bank 3. for some reason they won't quantize together and the loop seems off. I know there's a global quantize but is there a way to set it so that when I set drums for 4 bars that banks two and three can be played longer but be quantized together? you can do this on the rc300 just by putting bank 1 in free mode and other two banks in auto mode. I bought this pedals for sound quality improvements, more inputs and outputs but it doesn't seem to do the one thing I want it to. I'll have to take it back otherwise.

[@peckfaceagain]

Did you ever figure it out?

[@rejuvenator8966]

If they had put tracking harmonies in the vocal effects, this would be my device:P

[@1gtrman1]

Great info, Got mine on order, keep info coming. Video manual?

[@sonny8383]

Hi my name is Sonny. I have just a few basic questions. Can you direct me to someone I could ask?

[@MusosCornerAustralia]

Generally thoroughly reading the manual is the best point of call: www.boss.info/au/support/by_product/rc-600/owners_manuals/ That, this would be your best online resource: rolandus.zendesk.com/hc/en-us Then when you're really stumped, give the store you bought it from a buzz. Good luck!

[@aercruz1978]

Great video! Could you make a review about the RC 600 effects (reverb, chorus, delay, distortion, octaver, etc) thank you!

Come to Central Park (New York) on December 8th (2023) to Celebrate John Lennon's Birthday!! Bring your Guitar/drums/and memories!!

I own this looper and it is a major disappointment. I would definitely read the reviews on seller sites before purchasing.

[@MusosCornerAustralia]

Sorry to hear that, what didnt you like about it?

[@ubellubo]

What didn't you like about it? Is there another looper that you like better?

[@iconsworld9]

rc 505 is better.

how so?

[@tomjones4620]

indeed, how so?
