Anyone unconvinced should watch this tutorial. Great work! Does it have Harmony function like the VE-8? I want to upgrade but i'm addicted to the vocal efx
Something about the Boss RC-505 makes people create videos with a reggae influence. Hard to find someone just dropping hip hop or guitar loos with this thing. Maybe thats why they didnt sell so well. Its a greta machine but imagine only seeing Moog analog synths creating reggae music...
In fact Beatboxers are the regular adopters and, I will say, initial target… but the point is very few people goes deep in the use as “backing track” machine which after the firmware update this is. In the beggining was overpriced for what offered and maybe few people is aware about the improvements now it’s priced properly (444€ new and around 300€ at “craiglist” second hand market). Sometimes the machine is enough good for something but not for something else against competition. To my mind cames Pioneer toraiz sp16 vs Akai mpc one… the first is quite limited (but at the same time it has unique features) being more expensive second hand than the fully features mpc one NEW from shop…
Question, i would like to get a looper, but i am a turntablist so i need 2 hands, 1on the vinyl and on the crossfader. How can i start recording when i dont have a free hand? Or can it detect incoming sound signalen? Or I need on with pedals? Thx for everything
Anybody know when boss will release drivers for mac os 13 ? Or do the drivers for mac os 12 also work with 13 ? I stupidly updated my mac and now regretting it..
doctor mix ! thanks you very much for information movies!! i wanne ask i buy this loop station in this year 2021 februari, and he is full now, so i try to put the numbers out true the computer, but discover that al the songs are split in 5 tracks and without the beat i record it. i wish so much that i can listeing to my songs the same way as true my loop station. can you mabe help me? happy gretings Jozefien from the Netherlands!
I've got one , usually put all keys n instruments into mixer & then into RC505 . I'm just wondering if I was using a keyboard with built in speakers , I do rather like the Korg SV2S , how would it be if I put my keys through looper then back through speakers ? ? , Just when I want to go out with just keys & looper for little house jam/parties .
they say it should work . had an SV1 & lots of other kit & I went to live with my bro' on his wide beam barge .on the River I sold everything & bought a Kronos 2 .( which is absolutely beyond me -) I came back to land & ever since been building up my live gigging gear with RC505 & 202 , sync together ,7 tracks. reface YC , Microkorg XL Global wave drum .D1 piano Ukulele Bass , & gutarlele , melodica & harmonicas . I come from Rhythm n Blues / Gospel roots , but I love reggae riddum & latin , so this past year have been completely Re working my songs & approach to looping & playing Live .. Just to put the icing on the cake & a few cherries , I've got a Korg Kaoss Pad 3+ on order arriving this weekend . the Kaoss Pad is going to give my keys a complete over haul . I may get another synth later this year . Thanks Dr. Mix , your stuff is so very helpful,. see you in the music.
@@PeterGarofalo if the keyboard has aux input could be possible but you should put some attention on feedback loop and limitations since you want to record the keyboard sounds and it will require mute the external input of rc505 or you will grow a “noise ball” in few rounds. Best option is working with in ear monitor and, everytime you can, external PA instead the keyboard ones. Peace and Unity
how do we make a perfect loop ? I mean when i record a loop with my roland JDXI ( not in midi just in audio) and I am listening to the recording, when the loop start again, always i hear a ... time lag ... annoying 1/4 second ?
When he adds bass line, it does not last the same as the first loop, but twice longer. How is that set up, because whenever I add a new track, it automatically makes it last as much as the first loop?
@@fortheloveofnoise Actually, it is pretty simple. You can use edit option for your tracks and set length to be "free". Then it can last longer than the first loop.
I guess those who r using RC-505 for sketching their musical ideas are those who have a DAWless studio. Otherwise, why would one need RC-505? To use the DAW's transport functions, one could use the computer keyboard or a MIDI-control keyboard or a DAW controller (like e.g. CC121 for Cubase) or the remote control app for the DAW, running on the phone or tablet... Unless I'm missing something, I don't get why would anyone need this gear, except for beatboxing or when working in a DAW-less studio.
Can you tell me what sets the master loop length? If you start with a four bar loop... does that set the loop at four bars, so any future loops on other channels will be restricted to four bars? Or if you record a four bar bass line loop, can you record say a 16 bar melody on top of that and the machine will adjust the master loop length to 16 bars?
It had a firmware update fxing some of the issues with the “first take lenght” so check the roland site (downloads) for the extra document which has the info you need. Cheers!
Claudio guardando il tuo video e vedendo cosa può fare questa loop station mi hai convinto a comprarla come quando senti quel disco e lo prendi...comunque volevo integrarle con le mie varie macchinette, come sync registro dal ritmo della macchina madre e via si parte, ciao maestro
Been connecting my Hydrasynth to the Loop Station trying to do a remix of Blue man Group 'I Feel Love' For the singing I will try to use the Hydrasynth ribbon.
Doctor Mix is just the coolest cat around! Everything he touches starts to groove!
I’m still bopping to this mix. Thank you!
Man you are so inspiring, thank you for following your passion, we are all benefiting big time!!!
Damn. Throw in some bubble reggae and you got yourself a riddim.
Thank you for this. I didnt even look at this thing before i bought it. Is coming like tomorrow.
This was so smooth and refined, and groovy to boot. Don't hurt em, Doc.
3 years late, but well worth it! I Thank you Doctor mix🙏🏾
Sounds like a song you’d hear when you’re on hold 😂😂💯💯 waiting for an Apple representative or some shit 😂😂😭😭💯
I use the RC202 as a looper with my hardware. Goes well layering mono synths👍
Your key game is too funky! 🔥
As always...another fun and useful demo.
Darn, relative new to making music (singer), had an eye on this machine... Now I want one :-)
I love how you straight went for the explanation! Thanks for the video!
I've seen this unit before. It's a cool piece of kit. Like all the others my wallet insists i shall never possess. Great demonstration tho. Thanks.
David Robot you're welcome!
Musicians Friend gave me that credit hook up on one o these
2:51 The riff!

Oh wow!!! Cool :)
hi.backround green keyboard name please ? thanks
Anyone unconvinced should watch this tutorial. Great work! Does it have Harmony function like the VE-8? I want to upgrade but i'm addicted to the vocal efx

That was a feel good video. Keep up the good work.
Hands down I would listen to your music! XD

Wow. That little machine is biggggg
That looks like a blast honestly
You sir are a genius 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sweet. I,mjust trying to find out how to combine tracks
That's cool. Thanks for sharing that.
Can you input guitar and synth drums?

I would like to know the model of that Yamaha keyboard. Please 👍🏽😉 Thanks you in advance.
We love Rc505 man
Badass!!! Thank you for this demo man, I want it!!
Does it have different drum kits?

DrZaius I heard that too lolol
This is good to hear I love music 🎶🎵❤🙌♥
nicely done
Brilliant😮
dope demo !!
just happened to click 3 years later
Same
Same.
4 years later for me
I make that 4
I’m just now getting invested into this product so everyone is fine! Hahaha… It’s never too late!
Thanks a lot for the tips bro! I’m trying to make a channel of my own right now for looping and other live demos, really helped
BeatBox Skills better than a pro XD
thanks for this tutorial
is there are some presets beats on that ? I don't have keyboard, thanks for your demo, it's really cool buddy, KernZelig 🇫🇷

Maybe they didn't sell elsewhere, but the RC-505 definitely dominated the beatbox markets
In fact Beatboxers are the regular adopters and, I will say, initial target… but the point is very few people goes deep in the use as “backing track” machine which after the firmware update this is. In the beggining was overpriced for what offered and maybe few people is aware about the improvements now it’s priced properly (444€ new and around 300€ at “craiglist” second hand market).

To my mind cames Pioneer toraiz sp16 vs Akai mpc one… the first is quite limited (but at the same time it has unique features) being more expensive second hand than the fully features mpc one NEW from shop…
Overall, damn good video. I definitely am investing in this 150% I think this will work best for me ♥️✨🌙 so thank you
do all the other loops always sync with the measure of the first loop?
Check the roland web documentation for the latest firmware due it talks specifically about issues relate to that.
What a guy x
Great demonstration man, thanks for sharing!
cool guy🔥🤙🏻
... and now they are releasing the improved model :D
Oooh can I be a loop daddy now??
there is only one loop daddy
Nice demo.
Question, i would like to get a looper, but i am a turntablist so i need 2 hands, 1on the vinyl and on the crossfader. How can i start recording when i dont have a free hand? Or can it detect incoming sound signalen? Or I need on with pedals? Thx for everything
Loop daddy brought me here..
Anybody know when boss will release drivers for mac os 13 ? Or do the drivers for mac os 12 also work with 13 ? I stupidly updated my mac and now regretting it..
Can the RC505 switch track memory live while playing and still keep in sync (like the RC202 can)?
Yes. It was one of the improvements in the firmware update. Very few artist making use of that amazing feature IMO
Doctor mix you are awesome. Great review!
whats the yamaha keyboard you were using ?
Thats a dope beat for just coming up with on the spot!! That looper looks like alot of fun to play with!
super kool music bro
Cool

Nice. I'm not sure do I need it or I could just use PC for everything.
now ere dis!
I wish I was able to get one
great video, think might have to get one :)
DOPE!

Plz tell me some name of speakers for beatboxing for house practice and i can use in our parties
Like the keyboard lines. Did all the keyboard sounds come with the keyboard?

Nice!
Is there something in 2023 of this version that’s worth what this is which seems like 350-400+ so curious!
This is the loop station Masego uses :)
Super.)Ragga Jungle.Peace
If I want to used with electric bass, it is possible to plug control foot pedals to record and stop by foot and play the rest with the hands?
Yes, you can connect a footpedal :)
@@AshSZ but is possible to record and stop with foot pedals?
@@awapuhi yes
borat on the beat
so its ableton live, live?
Yeah this is what ableton live session view does😎
Can you also make the loop really fast so it sounds like your mic is crashing?
16 bit recording, is it bad?
Excellent! J'adore!👏👏👏🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊👌👍👍

i appreciated it Bro
Can you please suggest me a drum pad compatible with the boss loop station?thank you so much
My man went full rasta
Can Marc Rebillet come over and show you how to use it properly?

can you modify the individual tracks separately or is it just global
yes, separately
Nice Dub!
0:24 Aww hey come on! Don’t put yerself down, you can’t be that ba... 0:29

Thank you for this DR Mix

Can't use it on the ground, should have made it with foot switches also🙈to bad cause it looks like a good machine.
Been connecting my Hydrasynth to the Loop Station trying to do a remix of Blue man Group 'I Feel Love' For the singing I will try to use the Hydrasynth ribbon.
@Jorn Navarre Yeah the loopstation is great! I'm adding pedal connection to it so that I can use my feet to control it.
Thank peace
