Hi everyone! I have an issue with RC-5 & Rc-505. When using the loopers as midi clock slave devices, synced to Maschine software, there are glitches / artefacts all over the place. BOSS recommends to turn Tempo Sync off for each track to avoid those issues, but this led to another issue (tracks start / skip bars / stop randomly). SO that was not a solution. I have contacted BOSS about this, they said they tested it with Ableton and it works fine, but in general their loopers dont like to be slaved. However, no matter how i put the MIDI settings on the looper, nothing helps. Is this also the case with RC-500?

Great info! are you able to advise if I can use a Boss PSA-100s IN : AC 100-240V OUT: DC 9V 500 mA with the pedal?

Hi Jay, the BOSS PSA100S is an old power supply but should work. It appears to be the same as the current BOSS PSA240

Here is the question I need answered. My trio has been using the Digitech stereo looper and we have created about 50 percussion tracks on that device. I also have these 16 bit 44.1 WAV files backed up on my computer. We have switched to creating percussion loops (usually one measure), in Presonus Studio One 5. I am very dissatisfied with the Digtech software (which has not been updated for years) because it will not recognize the SO loops for transfer to a memory location on the looper. I need to be able to copy these phrases over to the RC-5 and have each one assigned to a specific memory location so if I need a specific loop, say a bossa nova rhythm, I can go to that specific location ex. loop # 15, and activate that loop while we play. This is probably not the typical purpose of a looper but it works really well for us. 99 memory locations will give us more space than we need and loop length is not a consideration. We just need to be able to bring up a specific phrase and have it loop as we play. Can that be done with this device thru the USB connection and is there software that comes with the RC-5 that allows that transfer from computer to the device. Thanks.

Hi John, you can import WAV files to and from the unit via USB using BOSS Tone Studio (available free from the Roland website), so you are able to do what you want to do. Many people do use the loopers with memory function to store backing tracks etc on them so it's actually not as weird a usage case as you might think! 👍

Now that I have purchased the RC-5 I have 2 questions. 1. Can I copy a loop from one memory location to another so that I have the same loop in both locations and 2. can I then change the tempo of one of those loops. We will often use the same percussion loop for different songs but need different tempos for each song. I can't figure out from the manual if this can be done and if so, how? Thanks.

Hi John, If you're referring to the drum loops(?) press SETUP and MEMORY at the same time to WRITE, and then use the scroll wheel to click over to another memory/patch, then save it there. Then you can freely change the tempo on your new patch.

@@MegaMusicOnline Thank you very much. I finally figured that out yesterday. Much easier than my Digitech Stereo Looper. Technology has really advanced since that model came into production.

Had you set your looper on auto rec?

Hi, the looper wasn't on auto record for this demo. We set the pedal to record for each loop. Hope that helps.

Hi GriffinGTR, yes the RC-5 includes many built-in drum loops and you can also import WAV files using the free BOSS Tone Studio app. 👍
