      Hi
      thanks for sharing, I truly enjoy your music...
      I am a beginner in music creation and find this idea of looping really interesting to get started with!
      I know it’s been a while since this video was uploaded, but I have some questions that if you happen to have any time over can help me with a bit, on my way to learn more.
      Here’s what I think my dilemma is before deciding on what to get:
      I’ve been looking at the TC Helicon Acoustic for its voice enhancement features, but it doesn’t have the looping capabilities I’m after., that I see you use On the other hand, the Boss RC-505 has all the smart looping functions but when I read about it it says it doesn’t quite match the voice quality of the TC Acoustic.
      So, here are my questions:
      1. Is there a single device that combines the looping features of the Boss RC-505 with the voice quality enhancements of the TC Acoustic?
      2. Alternatively, is there a cost-effective way to add looping like you got to the TC Acoustic?
      3. Or, is there a budget-friendly device that can simply enhance the vocal quality of the Boss RC-505 to match the TC Acoustic’s capabilities?
      I also looked at the TC Helicon VoiceLive 3 Extreme, but it doesn’t quite fit my needs since I don’t play electric guitar and prefer focusing on acoustic instruments and vocals. I mainly use my voice, wooden flutes, harmonica, drums, and occasionally piano-guitars I cannot play.
      I’m hoping to find a setup that lets me loop effectively while keeping my voice sounding smooth and natural, and maybe adding in the flute and djembe at certain times.
      Thanks for taking the time to read this. Any suggestions or creative ideas would be greatly appreciated!
      Best,
      Chris

    In the past with my fairly basic setup of midi keys/vocals/bass/audio interface, I've found all of this a bit confusing, just winging it without really completely getting what I was doing. I got an RC-505 in the mail today, and after watching this video, I *finally* get it!! So stoked and excited to get going!! Thank you, really great video

    usually these yamaha mixers have a group out option, which means you can send you outpuyts via the mixer to the group outs then take the output of the your 505 back into the mixer and route it through the stereo out,. you then get a stereo L & R mix eq on your mixer which is super handy for checking levels ect

    i think 1/8” stereo jacks sound great too. i’m using one for the output of my mixer into the rc 202 and it works really well. i’ve heard a well known studio engineer/software designer say that there is some rounding or warming of the sound that you don’t get with the 1/4” connectors.

    Would you be able to share some insight on why you go aux in instead of 1/4 in? Is there a specific reason? Would 1/4 in left and right provide the same results? I am also a multi Instrumentalist seeking the best setup. Also, I have to extend my hand of gratitude and say thank you for such inspiring music. I came across your channel and content not long ago.

    I just came across this, been following his music for years, seems he has gotten away from the 505 lately.
    Anyway, I have the same question as so many in the comments below. Why do you go into the 505 with 1/8th into aux? Why not L and R straight into the corresponding inputs? Pros and cons?
    Seems no one else got their questions answered below, so I am not expecting a response, but if someone reads this in the future and knows, I would love to know.
