How to Loop Boss RC-300: Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles

I show you how I use the Boss RC-300 loop station to live loop Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles.
Live looping is when you record music and play it back live, on the spot. This is a very difficult skill to develop, specifically because it's very easy to get your timing and performance wrong when you're trying to record it live.

KILLER VID - THANKS

[@MarcAllredVideos]

Yeah man👍🏻

[@chriso7105]

Please, put the configurations you used in RC300...loop sync, loop lenghts, tempo sync..

[@ralphlam5446]

The bass transposition is flawless. What pedal are you using for the bass tones? The one I use is a tad wonky by comparison.

[@MarcAllredVideos]

Even though it’s 2 yrs old, I’m still using the Helix for my bass tone. Using a bass cab and octave pedal set up. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH22eZJoZrOaaaM

is good 👍🏼🤘🏼

[@MarcAllredVideos]

Righteous!!

[@ryanandersen7417]

Awesome! Hey, I also have a Line 6 floor pod plus, that I like to use for effects/distortions. Is there a way for me to be able to mix different sounds and effects into different loops, without automatically changing the distortion of every single loop? Every time I pick a new distortion, it changes all the tracks I’ve already made to that distortion. Thanks!

[@MarcAllredVideos]

That seems weird. I use the helix and each effect records separately and uniquely. Are you using rc-300 onboard effects? That’s the only thing I can think that would change every loop.

[@ryanandersen7417]

@@MarcAllredVideos i have not knowingly ever touched any of the effects on my RC-300. I saw on your “Pedalboard and Looper” tutorial from a couple years ago someone asked either the same or a very similar question, and you seemed just as confused and had given the same suggestion.

[@patrickploenzke489]

What bass pedal are you using?

[@MarcAllredVideos]

Currently I use the Electro-Harmonix Nano POG.

Where is the mic plugged into

[@user-sm1fz9qk8z]

Sorry, but his timing was off....if you listen very carefully....his rythym was slightly out then his bass line was definitely out....the exercise is good, but he mentioned timing at the start.

[@MarcAllredVideos]

You’re not wrong, but you’re also getting a little bit nit picky. I’m not quantized, I’m live. You’re not going to get a perfectly quantized loop when you do it live. Sometimes the stars align and you can pull something off live that’s amazing, but the human imperfection that you’re mentioning is what makes live looping so awesome. I agree that when you’re timing is off so much that it distracts from the song you should start over, but to nit pick the human imperfections of timing that you’re pointing out isn’t something other loopers should worry about. Clearly, I don’t😎
