I've been playing for over 50 years (maybe ten professionally in the late 70's... it's a bit of a blur), however never used a looper. I just got this one as a gift, and I went to UA-cam to look for a tutorial... painful process. I have an old friend that use to work for Roland Canada and he has a video on here for the RC-3, however the RC-5 is a entirely different, so I was lost. This video went through it all in plain English, with a user demo for all the options.... PERFECT !!! Thanks, now if I can just find some patience for all those options. It's a very powerful tool. It'll be a case of 'old dog, new tricks' for a while I'm sure. Thanks again.
Definitely the best one that explains EVERYTHING thoroughly…. if u have a question just take the time to watch I’m sure it will be answered. GREAT JOB GUYS THANK U IMMENSELY
Just bought my first looper...the RC-5! I'm super excited to learn how to use it so this video was awesome for me. Thanks for making a great video. I'm taking my show on the road this summer and will be busking all over the place.
I just purchased one of these rc-5 mine didnt come with a manual but did find it on line PDF also did a lot you tube how to use this unit and have to say this one is by far the best !!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Thanks guys. I bought an RC5 as a post xmas present to myself. I find it easy to navigate - and because I am not yet getting too precious about my loops it really doesn't matter if I screw something up.... it's all learning curve. What a great tool! I just ran an acoustic guitar through it (with an ancient Ibanez acoustic pickup, into a Fender acoustic amp) - it worked a treat.Normally my electric is running into a Fender Mustang LT50. This also works great. I would say the RC5 is the most fun you can have with your clothes on.
Excellent video i got it today this jewel of a recording pedal amazing work!!!! Thanks for the info ill just download it to consult anytime and loop forever!!! 😎✌️ cheers!!
thanks for this video ,i was having trouble saving my loops to memory because you have to stop the loop before saving it and some how i learned that from watching this .best wishes
If you wanna take your RC-5 a bit deeper, you might wanna check out all the videos I have done. ua-cam.com/play/PLO36LpORUSaa2hQEKtoW-FyuhOBCwlfRs.html
I’m trading my RC-3 for one of these because the ten RC-3 drum patterns are driving me mad after 5 years of use! It’s one of the best practice tools that every guitarist should have.
Oh man, the first 6 mins of this vid has saved me serious headaches. Could not for the life of me figure out how to loop a nice clean rhythm then play distorted lead over the top without all of it being distorted. It was doing my head in.. Thank you, Thank you, Freaking Thank you.
I have every hole plugged on this other than the midi Have a Ampeg bass amp and 50w guitar amp running through the rc5 with couple creambacks ,a beat buddy if you get it set up right for jamming it can be a beast and dust the rafters don’t worry about the drums in my guitar amp it’s all good A bass compressor is important to keep this clean with real band bass sound I make fairly long loops Then play lead on a 20w 1 12” combo with a a extension speaker on other side of bass amp it’s pure heaven this is the clearest Looper that isn’t hundreds more that is crystal clear 👍
What's with the ridiculously loud volume of the rhythm patterns (drums)!! Lots of people complaining. And NO global parameter to reduce all the memories drum levels?? Crazy. Have to individually change each rhythm level or risk tearing a speaker. Any news about the possibility of a firmware update? Thx in advance. 🙂👍
That high volume preset issue is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Idiots! Ouch my ears and speakers! What a pain to have to watch out for this. Accidently heard it too many times! On BOTH drums and loop levels, each buried in a different menu. UI designers should be spanked.
Hi I've just purchased a RC 5 . Very helpful video ( as the Manuel supplied is very basic). I was just wondering if there was anyway to copy and paste different loops from different memories. For example copy loop 1and paste it to loop 2.... Thanks for your help..
Hi guys awesome piece of kit . Just one question in a update in there future is it possible to put a Reggae beat in there . Just love Reggae . Thanks Boss .
Thank you for the great review :) What do the Input A/B and Output A/B do? I thought I should input my guitar with 1 jack and output with 1 jack to the amp and that's it. Why do I need second input (B) and output (B) for? Could you kindly explain? Thanks!
Hi perfect explanations of the RC-5. My question is you are using a Multi Fax Pedal I noticed. How do I connect the RC- 5 to my multi fx pedal it does have the return and send connections. I dont use an amp just studio monitors. Thanks John
Hi! I love this pedal so far, I've owned it for a week or so. I have a quick question: the rhythm "start before loop" and stop "never" features are great so you can get used to the tempo before recording starts, and so you can have a loop in the middle of a song and keep playing in tempo before and after. But is it just me or do these things only work when a loop is blank, before you first start recording? I would love to be able to keep those settings on a loop even after I've recorded it. Is there a way to do that? I realize you can start the rhythm beforehand with the on/off button but it would be really nice to be able to do it with the foot switch so you can do it while playing.
Thanks guys. I understand that the RC-5 wants to see a 32-bit, 44kHz backing track from an external source. I want to make backing tracks to use with live shows on GarageBand with my macOS Big Sur version 11.6. I know the computer only uses a 24-bit format. If I use an audio interface with a 32-bit encoder into GarageBand, will I be able to successfully pull those tracks into my RC-5?
Thank you for making this video. There is no way a reasonable person can write documentation on this and still make sense. And there is no way a reasonable person will read the documentation either. Now for my next trick, fix my internal metronome.
GREAT LOOPER. Weakest point is the instructions. I have combed through the documentation and tons of tutorials, can't find a rational way to apply the fills. Do I need a footswitch, or am I supposed to bend down and turn the dials mid-recording? If footswitch, then can someone point me to a tutorial on switching between rhythm and fill variations while recording a loop?
I come from the infinity looper and I change few days ago to the boss rc 5 because I reduce the side of my pedalboard. I use ableton as a midi master clock for the looper and I use to Record at the start of the next measure after the switch has been pressed. That's work perfect in the infinity but I don't see this option in the Boss. How can I do this or similar with the RC 5?
I use the RC-5 to loop the verse and chorus of a song played on my acoustic guitar onto a numbered loop, then "write" it permanently onto the RC-5. In my solo show, each song on the set list has a little loop number by it as the rhythm track for me to play electric along with it live and sing. One glitch: This has worked well for months but suddenly the drum beats I carefully set up and saved along with the acoustic guitar track disappeared from a couple of the saved loop numbers. Can't seem to get them back, so live I had no drums for those songs. Also, it took my looped/recorded acoustic volume back to 100, too low -- all my other songs are at 150. Now I'm nervous that I can't depend on the pedal doing my solo show stuff. (I tried to add drums to the previously recorded tracks, but failed so far...)
You're right. Though It would probably come in microscopic print. Why is everything gotta be digital so frustrating i want to have it in my hand like old school tangible information
Why is the default drum level at 100..??? It’s usually way too loud for what I’m playing. I can’t find a way to adjust a “default” level to my liking.. Any advice on this..?
Hi guys, great super video, i got my pedal just 2 days ago and i cannot play on the "beat" as you do in the video, mine is always 4/4 time signature, can you gimme a tip what might be the problem please ?
Hi! is it possible to change the tracks with the footswitch while playing? For instance, I have 2 sections: verse and Chorus, is it possible to switch between both section without stopping the recording?
I may have missed it--but is there a way to make an unquantized loop, or by another term, an unsynced loop--a free loop not dependent on measures or tempo?
@Aaron Marino. What if I want to power multiple boss pedals using its psa or other brands. What would I do first? What should comes first? Plug the connector to the input source of each pedal first then plug it to wall outlet Or plug it to wall outlet first then connect each isolated wire to the source input if each pedal?
Are you able to create a textured song by creating different layers of beats/rhythms or even sections with no rhythm and just playing by joining them together?
Hi I look to a pedal to add on my Analog vinyl Set UP to do some live looping Funk and Hip hop . A bit like a DJ call Cut Chemist Do you think the RC 5 is good for this use or maybe a other could be more optimize ?
This is a very useful, but it does not show or explain the difference between the "auto" and "free" measure settings. Perhaps this feature was added after the video. Can someone provide this info? Thanks
Does anyone know if you can set the tempo so it doesn't change at all when i hit the record switch on and off? For example if i want to lock it in at 120bpm, can i? When i set the tempo and hit record, then stop recording, it changes the tempo.
Hi, I just recently got mine with its PSA adapter(BOSS). I am here for minor assistance if it's okay with you. Upon using its psa, I am very confuse in what way should I do first to turn the unit off. Am I going to unplug the adaptor from the outlet first then unplug the 1/4 cable from Output A, or unplug the output A first then the adapter? What's the safest thing to do in order to avoid faulty/malfunction to the pedal?
To turn off, easiest is to just unplug the 1/4" cable from the output jack labeled "Output A"/Power On. Once disconnected you can unplug the adaptor from wall first, then the power input on the pedal. Most effect pedals (like BOSS) can all be (if you choose to) kept connected and just have a single power strip or power supply with a master power switch, or just unplugged from the wall, without worry of damaging the pedal.
@@aaronkaaimarino Thanks, would it be safer for the unit to keep the battery inside while using its own psa to avoid malfunctions? or do I need to remove it?
@@riannedalemusic1899 IMO. If you are using a power adaptor, I would take the battery out of the unit, if you are not using it. Part of the concept of the BOSS compact pedal shape and design was based in the thought that "it's not if a battery will leak, but rather when". So though the metal housing battery compartment will protect the circuits of a BOSS pedal from ever getting damaged by battery acid, battery acid leak is still messy. Better to remove the battery to avoid a leak situation all together.
Does anyone know why the default rhythm volume level is so loud? I will be playing my loops at an acceptable volume level and hit the rhythm button and it’s shockingly loud! I usually have to manually turn the rhythm volume level down to 30 or 40 every time I start a loop, which seems like an unnecessary step. Thanks!
Memerory slots are the same I use a external foot switch to change slots so I might make three songs to play and do my levels I want at 100 on level so I know they will be at that level not sure of way to externally adjust the level It’s not a option on cntrl 1or 2 for external adjustment
Can you connect a microphone to the looper with a 1/4” male coming from the microphone cable? Would be playing a flute and adding my own effects, is this possible with this looper?
@22:12 about the BEAT, why would mine be atuck in 4/4 & not change like it does in this video? I must have done something wrong but I can't figure it out yet.
I just got one but it may be faulty? The looper is very loud and with my guitar full on it is barely audible over the looper. The "Loop Level" doesn't make any difference from zero to 100. Shouldn't that be the way to turn down the looper volume?
A pitty that you did not show how to midi sync. By the manual, it should be possible to sync to an external midi clock, however I am having trouble with it, and it seems a lot of other too. Can you make a video on how to midi sync to an external clock?
Hello. I just want to use a simple amp with rc5 and a few effects. When I change the amp effect, the effect of the looper recording also changes. Can I prevent this? Is there such a setting in rc5?
Hi, I don't own a rc-5 yet. I plan to purchase one soon. I'm a little confused about how to use it with my effects chain. I have a Orange micro terror (so no effects loop) and a boss bcb 60 pedal board. It looked like you were suggesting that I don't connect the rc-5 to the last pedal in my chain. Please could you clarify how I should connect the rc-5 in my effects chain? Thanks.
By far the best instructional video for the BOSS RC-5 that I have seen. Well done.

Thanks for the detailed comparison. Probably going to bite the bullet and get the RC5 because of the additional options
Awesome Video - Thanks tons
Answered all my questions 👍🏻
Awesome video. I just got myself a boss RC5 and now know how to use it 😉 thanks!

You can reduce the level of the drums in the rhythm section. The loop level is different from the rhythm/drums level.

Hey guys, does anyone know if you can loop over a preloaded backing track? Im having issues making that work for me.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to make a variation rhythm switch from a to b and have a fill
Do I save the loop (write and execute) from the Play mode or do I have to stop playback of the loop?
Does anyone know if you can set the tempo so it doesn't change at all when i hit the record switch on and off? For example if i want to lock it in at 120bpm, can i? When i set the tempo and hit record, then stop recording, it changes the tempo.
very nice...how do you store/save tracks you make?
You have to press the setup and memory buttons once at the same time, then press the memory knob, and that will save the track.

Will this work w all midi capable Boss loopers ? I have the rc 500..
