Boss RC-30

This is a great product – There is now many loopers on the market. This one is great. As with all Boss pedals, this is made very robustly. Great housing and good rubber on the base prevents slipping. Mounts well on pedal boards. Some old negative reviews have focused on the short delay when a loop restarts. This was fixed a few years ago - can be fixed on all versions if the firmware is updated via a USB cable.

The loop effects are not great if you ask me, but you can always apply external effects.

Shop around if you want a new one, the prices vary enormously. I suggest you try to pick one up second hand if you're on a budget.

BOSS RC30 pedal. Best looper on the market – I just bought the RC-30 at my favorite music store! (GlobalSound Trade), and since I always look here for my reviews I thought Id post one. When I first looked at the unit I thought it looked great, but when I looked around for some reviews most seemed to be bad. There was an issue with switching phases live and some other things. I decided to get the unit anyways, and I am glad I did.

This is my first loop station and I must say I love it! All the problems that people had said I have found easy ways to resolve, the best being for switching phases live, I just did the whole song on one phase. I mean I have enough space and I think it works a lot better.

So far I havent found any issues with it myself, it is built to last and everything is rather easy to understand. The one thing that I really dislike about the unit is the effects They are a piece of junk I would never use them, but thats why I hook up my effects board I guess.

Over all this is a great buy. I would recommend this to anyone, I think its great for soloers or for people who want to just practice licks (although if thats all your doing the RC-3 would fit your needs, but the RC-30 gives you the opportunity to do more if you get better) best looper on the market , for it's price anyway bit on the pricey side.
