SUMMER NAMM 2019: Boss has announced the next generation in its industry-standard Loop Station looper pedal with the RC-10R.
The RC-10R combines song-based looping and dynamic rhythms, with two unique song sections, intros/endings and rhythm fills.
There are 280 preset rhythm styles onboard, which promise to cover nearly any genre, as well as 16 drum kits.
Loop-wise, Boss is offering six hours of stereo recording time, with two-track operation and onboard storage for 99 phrase memories - as well as 50 user rhythms.
Handily, you can optimise the output for a guitar amp or full-range sound system, while there’s also full MIDI I/O via Boss’s mini-TRS jacks (as seen on the recently announced 200 series). PC/Mac software is also available for importing WAV loops and user rhythms.
The RC-10R is available this summer for $299/£263 - head over to Boss for more.
It joins the SY-1 Synthesizer in Boss’s SNAMM line-up.
“It's transparent when not in operation, crisp when looping, and handles high-gain and complex audio sources with ease”: TC Electronic Ditto 2 Looper review
“Instead of pairing a new booster inside this new pedal, think of it as changing lanes inside the pedal”: Mythos and That Pedal Show team up for the Argo Boost Deluxe – an octave fuzz with a switchable boost
