Damn, another gas attack ... and its £125, I was hoping it wasn't going to be that much

It's on the to get list though!

Has anyone here used it??

My pedal junkie friend loves it, I had the RC20, and the thing that ruins them all for me is there is only one output so you cant run the loop to a second amp and keep the pedal in your effects chain.

I have my eyes on one of these for myself. Looks like loads of fun. Especially if you do any open mike stuff.

I like the idea of just getting the chance to play over stuff again as I dont get the chance to do band stuff these days, be handy for laying down a bunch of chords then playing lead over the top, and with the extra added bonus of drum pre sets too and over lapping a few tracks. Sounds so much fun!

I was just hoping it wasnt going to be quite that much money lol

And with 16mins loop time thats ample enough time to make full songs. Wonder if there's then a way to get that connected to a PC to record it to .wav then to convert to mp3 hmmm.

I'm debating between getting the new Line 6 model and the older Boss RC-20XL. Anyone have experience with the XL? I'm going to be using this for small club solo gigs mainly.

If you record drums or bass into itm You must get your gain from a pedal before the loop station.

I have the RC - 20 (the double pedal one)

It is enormous fun and a fantastic practice tool, you need never play unaccompanied again!

Never found it that useful in a Band setting, we always had two guitarists anyway so adding loops as well seemed to just muddy things up..

We did play a few shows where I recorded a load of audio samples into it which was quite fun. We have one slow song, which we always take the p*** and say sounds like angelo badalamenti crossed with buddy holly so we loaded the RC-20 with twin peaks quotes which worked quite well as a gimic..
