Short Loop Station

I purchased the RC-50 and had a feeling that it would open a world of musical possibilities. I had been waiting for something like this to come out, and Roland finally came close to what I had in mind. The unit is built like a tank. It is very well made, and very sensible. Every pedal is pretty much put in the right place and it is very easy to get started. I was truly excited to own it, and after purchasing it, I tried it in a few live settings, and noticed a few things that, in my mind, made it more of a fun gadget than an actual performance tool. The RC-50 works great for short loops and layering on top of that. The ability to choose between music structure or simply adding phrases just by simply pressing a pedal was great. The biggest disapointment came when I tried classical guitar duets. Longer loops cut out at the begining of the loop. The longer the loop, the more it would cut out, and the more it would be noticeable in a live performace setting. If you're working with short loops and multiple layers, the RC-50 will work wonders for you. But if you're looking to venture into performing pieces for 2 or 3 guitars... look for 1 or 2 guitarist to join you, and do it that way until the fine tune the problem I described.

AWSOME LOOPER

This is by far the best loop station you will ever use. In addition to looping, it comes with a ton of cool features. When you loop, you can record 3 phrases that play at the same time and can have 99 presets of these. You can also have one phrase play by itself, so you can have 3 parts to a song that play seperately. It comes with a ton of cool drum beats that fit everything. You can change the time signatures to even the weirdest ones. Also, once recorded, you can reverse the phrase, so it plays backwards. Theres a ton of other cool features loaded into this loop station. Highly recommended.

Great machine

I want to use this machine to play out live. IT sounds great and has worked flawlessly for me. Anything I needed to know was in the book. I started using it straight out of the box and was amazed at how easy it is to operate. I did have to look in the manual for some advanced things. I jam for hours with the prerecorded pacthes and it is an excellent practice tool.

A incredibly powerful workstation

I first had seen this unit in action when I was watching a solo artist showcase and I was very impressed. The loop station sounded fantastic through the PA system. I liked what I heard so much that I had to check it out for myself. This unit allows the user to have 3 stereo tracks to be manipulated at the same time. The solo artist stacked them up with a pre-recorded background drumbeat and became a one-man band. This unit has 376 rhythm guide drum patterns, which are very easy to use. This also has USB so you can import WAV files, and it is built to last! If you need a flexible loop station I would highly recommend this unit.

Thank You Boss!

I have been using a delay pedal with loop capabilities for 5 years now, but have never really been happy with the results. I play several instruments, and in order to use different ones while looping I would have to unplug/plugin several times. I would also have to be sure to get the levels and passes perfect or my loop would be useless. Along comes the RC-50 to solve the majority of my problems. I now have 3 distinct inputs with their own level controls, and 3 individual loop phrases each with the ability to add multiple passes. I'm now able to create my own backing tracks with just a few stomps of a pedal. My only complaint is that there are no EQ controls which would be very useful, especially for the Mic input.
