BOSS created the RC-1 to compete against the incredibly popular Ditto Looper by TC Electronic ( read my review of the Ditto here). The Ditto Looper became popular thanks to the low price and easy-to-use features. There is also an undo/redo function, which works through the same footswitch. This is invaluable when you’re looping (unless you always play perfectly). For example, you can use it to fix mistakes when overdubbing without clearing the base loop and starting all over. You can also use it to add and subtract layers of complexity to your loops. This is useful, for example, when you want to add some variation between the verse and chorus of a song. The Loop Indicator You have a lot more control over your loops, the ability to store recorded loops on the pedal, and mix in rhythm patterns.
It’s also worth mentioning that this pedal doesn’t come with a power supply. Like most loopers, it’s relatively power-hungry and therefore won’t last long with a battery, so we highly recommend investing in a quality pedalboard power supply. Q. Share or publish the results of any benchmarking of the Software without Roland’s prior written consent; The stop/undo/redo functions can be controlled with an external footswitch if you need an easier way to control your loops during a live performance. BOSS RC-1 vs Ditto Looper The RC-30 is possibly the most popular looper pedal of all time with live performers. More often than not, when you see a live performer creating loops, you’ll see an RC-30 on the pedalboard. It’s easy to see why when you consider how much control the RC-30 gives you. You can see you have important features such as microphone input, MIDI control, external footswitch control, etc.
Every loop station pedal has an input for an external footswitch. If you ever feel limited when controlling your loop station, try adding an external footswitch. BOSS RC-1 Loop Station External footswitch support: the number of footswitches plays a big role in how flexible a looper can be. While there’s a lot you can do with one footswitch, adding an extra footswitch can make a big difference.
Note: If you want to know when the Boss RC-1 was released relative to other Boss looper pedals, we’ve made a timeline here. Straightforward Features But if you want to create multiple loops, complex layers, and use other advanced features like what you saw in the above video, one of the more feature-filled loop stations like the RC-30, RC-500, or RC-300 might suit you better. A great tip to master the art of looping is to treat the pedal as an instrument. All you need to do is press the pedal in time to what you are playing and you’re golden - if you can tap your foot in time, you can loop.

Development Tools. If the Software includes development tools, such as scripting tools, APIs or sample scripts (collectively “Development Tools”), and unless there is a separate agreement between You and Roland or Roland for the Development Tools, You may use such Development Tools to create new scripts and code for the purpose of customizing Your use of the Software (within the parameters set forth in this EULA and in the Development Tools themselves) and for no other purpose. Limitation Period. Except as stated in this Section, all claims must be made within the period specified by applicable law. If the law allows the parties to specify a shorter period for bringing claims, or the law does not provide a time at all, then claims must be made within 18 months after the cause of action accrues. LCD Display and status ring: the first thing your eyes probably went to when you first saw the RC-600 was the big ring and circle status display. The status ring on the RC-1 and RC-10R are good features and it’s good to see BOSS improve this feature in the RC-600. While it may cost more to have two separate pedals instead of the RC-10R, you will end up with a far better rig suitable for performances.
While the RC-1 is a great pedal, it’s bare-bones compared to the RC-3. Being able to save up to 99 recordings on your pedal will be worth the extra price for most guitarists.The first thing to point out is that the RC-3 was released in 2011, so it is nine years older than the RC-5. The Automatic mode will begin recording as soon as you start playing. The Count-in mode gives you a bar of rhythm set at a tempo of your choice (using a tap tempo button) before it starts recording.
The original reviewer proposed that 12 minutes recording time without memory slots is a waste of precious capacity. After I toyed happily with this nice, simple but effective tool for a while, a lightbulb went off over my head. This is one looper, where you *never ever* have to worry if your loop will be long enough – everybody will be fast asleep by the time you get to the end. Since you want to concentrate on playing, that is worth something in itself.So in many ways, the RC-500 is a far better pedal. It also sells at a significantly lower retail price compared to the older RC-300. For most guitarists, this difference is big enough for you to immediately choose the RC-500. Number of footswitches: the number of footswitches plays a big role in how easy a looper is to use and how many different things you can do with it With a maximum 12 minutes of stereo recording time, the RC-1 is capable of capturing any extended performance that you can create or imagine!
Great Deal
