## Description

Boss RC-5 Loop Station Compact Phrase Recorder Pedal : desertcart.ae: Musical Instruments

Review: Damaged Device - The device stopped powering onn in two weeks. The seller would not allow a replacement or repair.
Review: This is a great little looper that has really helped my practice and timing. Steep learning curve to work it out but there are a bunch of YouTube videos to help and you can find the manual online. There's nothing in the box to help you to get started. Using the fs 6 for pedal with it really helps. A few reviews on here complain about the backing track being too loud and potentially damaging equipment. It can be turned down. You just need to take the time to work out all of the settings. I'm an intermediate player just getting in to soloing and scales and this is a great tool to lay a backing track and jam over. I'm still working it out but I love it. Built like a brick shit house like all of the boss pedals. I use rechargeable 9v batteries to save on cords and having to buy the boss power supply

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there no way to have it automatically save your songs as you record them?...I keep losing loops I've recorded simply because I turned the knob.**
A: Yo will need to press the 2 setup and memory buttons under the display (write) then press the large knob to the right of the display when prompted to write and execute. Save the loop before changing memory locations or the loop will be gone when you go back to that memory.

**Q: Could a record bass and send that to one output (bass amp), then play guitar live and send to the guitar amp?**
A: I tried it, and both signals will pass through to the outputs, but the primary signal (mono) output is to both A and B channels. If I understand what you are asking, yes it does loop both signals, but not sent (true send) as separate outputs.  Boss (Roland Corp.) has all the manuals and specs on-line for further review.

**Q: Can this unit synch to midi clock from an outside source?**
A: Yes.  You can set the Boss pedal to send or receive. (control or be controlled)

**Q: At the end of the loop it keeps cutting out for a second. Is that normal?**
A: No. Should just start at top. You have to start the loop (ie stomp on pedal) exactly in sync with start of playing.
