Has anyone tried out Boss' new RC-20 Loop Station?
It seems like someone finally figured out that loop tools are very useful when you can record a loop for over 5 minutes
I used to tinker around with the Boomerang loops, which I thought were great, but they didn't have a mechanism for going strait from record to stack.
In other words, say you're recording something you want to use as a loop. So you hit record, and start playing your loop. When you're done you hit record again and the loop starts playing and you can play over it.
BUT, if you want to immediately stack (record another loop) over that one, you have to hit and hold the stack button at the exact time you hit the record button for the second time.
This is impossible, especially on stage.
What a loop machine needs is a button that lets you stop recording one loop, immediately start playing it back and recording over it.
Does anyone know if the RC-20 has this?
Has anyone used the RC-20 and have comments on it?
Does anyone know if there are other loop machines that will do this?
Thanks,
Matt
