Value For Money :
Excellent
- What impact or effect types are available?
Good! This is a "Looper". In short, to musical phrases repeatedly. Therefore not REALLY an effect.
- What technology is used? (Analog numrique, lamp ...)
I do not know but the sound quality is impeccable.
- Are they ditables? Via an editor Mac / PC?
No. At this relatively low price, do not RVer
- What is the connection? (Audio / MIDI)
An instrument for Jack, a Jack in the pedals optional FS-5U or FS-6L (Start / Stop - Tap / Tempo
- Is it a MODEL rack or rack?
Hooo! Guys ... it is a PDAL.
We're going to 8, as it is missing, I think, between one to connect a volume pedals ... I'll explain more later.
UTILIZATION
- The configuration gnrale Is it easy?
Yes
- The edition sound effects or is it easy?
Yes, except the "Stop".
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
As always with Boss ... For those who can not read English => # http://mesnotices.fr/manuel-notice-mode-emploi/BOSS/RC-2-_F
SOUND QUALITY
- The effects are they effective, suitable and adequate ralistes?
Nickel chrome. I do not hear the sound diffrence between live and reproduced sound.
- Which instruments do you use?
An acoustic guitar, until ... Submitted But I will try all sorts of things.
- What are those you prfrez, you dtest?
Ben is the "Looper" in real time ... But there are also recording functions ... which I do not still useful.
OVERALL OPINION
- How long have you use it?
Last night.
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The "+"
The looper is perfect. If you aves a bit sense of rhythm, there is no problem to make a loop that runs perfectly ... and in addition it's great gnial to progress and learn to be square in square.
Operation is super easy and intuitive ... Well I have not yet explored but frankly it's not rocket science. You leave the box of her pretty red bote, and you plug HOP you "jam" of hell itself, as a great.
The overdub. After a few chords or notes and looped, it can be "directly" record something else on top ... and then, if the DSIR, add new notes on top. WARNING: Not enough for a symphony orchestra, but it's really nice ... Up 2-3 overdubs, I have not encountered any major problem ...
The "-"
The "stop" that must be actuated with either a double pressure on the pedals, or with a single press of the optional FS-5U pedals. The both of them are not practical. Since the first case a double pressure application be really careful and concentrated to arrter the loop at the right time. And with the FS-5U, even if I did not try it is not much better as it is necessary to change pedals, which also calls for a "gesture" supplmentaire. But it is not feasible.
OF CORRECTIONS April 7: I withdraw what I said on the optional FS-5U pedals. Certainly a deuxime PDAL is less convenient one ... But it is essential to have if you want to properly operate the RC-2. So, the RC-179 2 + 29 FS-5U = 208! May be it is better to directly select the RC-20XL, as the "heart" of the bte seems to be the same (16 minutes, 11 loops, etc ...) You decide.
To return the FS-5U, is much more empty with this little pedals. Since we can stop exactly o you want ...
The "Stop" brutal. This makes sense when you ask the machine to stop it s'arrte. BUT! It s'arrte net => impossible to finish a piece in style without "tampering". I have found two solutions, not empty set up musically.
1. I stop "pil-coat" the end of the loop (May the Force be with you) That application be highly developed ... good exercise, but could certainly live, I think. 2. I connected the RC-2 A volume pedals in order to "die" the loop slowly continuing to play. BUT! RHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, logically, as the "Loop" is placed last in the loop because when I lower the volume, well I have more sound at all as for the reproduction of the loop for the instrument is connected.
It lacks a management diffrent and "live" out of the loop and instrument "direct". Good for the price, it might be impossible. But that's a shame ... Since there is only one output level. It can con stepfather, but if we do a loop is to play "over" and if the loop is at the same level as what is added, well it's fast soup. .. Well I dbrouilles trs well with a volume pedals and my "Magicstomp," but we must juggle several pedals.
- How do you report qualitprix?
PERFECT! NICKEL! But to take full advantage of this type of "loop" must be added a few pedals supplmentaires. "PDAL volume" and "Footswitch" well before a possibly pdalier Loop diffrencier the history of sound and thus have a good balance between rhythmic (reproduced with the looper) and solo , for example. In addition, if we add such a Boss LS-2 (which sends the sound to output A and output B) this would be the really nickel. But then the RC-2 Loop Loopstation made. Point line. And it's a great ...
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
YES! I hte to test it live solo in a few weeks, do the purchase.
Apart from the "Stop" impractical and brutal, this is an excellent tool To create, to "jam" only to learn and above all be square ... Also the sound quality really allows use in direct agrmenter enabling and enriching the simple "guitar + voice" with all sorts of "layers" supplmentaires ...
Well, I guess "small default" do not exist on the RC-50 2-3 times more expensive ... Therefore should not be too "greedy". Honntement if your into place and you become a "king" of the "double click" with your foot, it's absolutely perfect ... Not bad, finally pedals that requires you square be?! ADDITION OF April 7 is always more enjoyable than mtronome ... and above all it allows you to really "risk" stuff ... and / or play the RC-2 you.
