With a durable design in a compact size, BOSS offers their most convenient Loop Station yet with the RC-1, now available in this Ultimate Looper Kit with two 6" jumper cables. The RC-1 Loop Station has great functionality that makes it very easy to navigate for a straightforward and fun experience. Operation is simple with redoing or undoing a loop, and pressing record, playback or overdub is done with a quick tap. Experience why so many performers and artists have continued to use BOSS for their looping needs with this highly accessible, intuitively built looper.

Ultimate Functionality in a Superior Design

This looper is extremely sturdy and can hold up to consistent use, night after night, for long-lasting operation. The RC-1 has a maximum recording time of 12 minutes, which is an ample amount of time to create with. The loop indicator, in the top panel, has an LED circle, which is exceptionally useful, with 24 segments. The single footswitch pedal does a lot, but you do also have the option of connecting an external footswitch for even more choices.

Straightforward Connectivity With Easy Versatility

There are convenient stereo input and output jacks that give you the ability to connect with stereo instruments, as well as amplifiers and stereo effects. This unit includes an AC adapter and alkaline battery for a consistent power supply. The promo pack also comes with two 6" patch cables and the BOSS five-year warranty for guaranteed satisfaction. If you’re looking for an easy-to-use, durable looper pedal that is perfect for both live performance and songwriting, than the RC-1 is the looper for you.

      This is a solid looper pedal. Easy to use straight out of the box. Helpful to have patch cables included. Would definitely recommend!

      This product sucks, it only works half the time when you go to turn on a loop it pauses before starting so I can't use it to record anything (BIG LOSER)
