Both of these tracks are very cool! I really like your multi angle videos PMC! You will have to tell me more about how you produce them someday. And I dig the patches you used in your track MidnightPackage, it has a great groove throughout. Thanks both for posting!

my best friend passed away last week and I have so much to prepare for (leading the funeral services this weekend) that everything else has fallen behind.

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Sad

Take care and we will be thinking of of you this weekend.


My condoleances.

Thank you, michelkeijzers

I'll be happy to tell you how to produce multi-track video! If you're ever in the Los Angeles area, give me a shout and I'll walk you through it firsthand!
And yes... while MidnightPackage thinks s/he is still learning how to use the RC-300, I think s/he did a fantastic job with it so far!

Yes I second the cool multi angel videos too.
I never made a youtube video but I know from experience making a good video is quite a lot of work and yours look very professional (of course the playing too Smile )

Thank you PianoManChuck and RonF! I appreciate the comments.

I find that I am, at least initially, using the pedal a bit different from what I expected. Because it has a persistent memory, I have been recording and saving multi-layered jazz backing tracks in the first dozen slots, that I can recall instantly and improvise over. So much fun. I have only scratched the surface of what the RC-300 is capable of. I would really like to do more recording too.

Just ordered a new RC 300 for $489 shipped.

The Octatrack seems fantastic but the cost is so high.

Seems like the RC 300 will be fine for my needs.

I'm still waiting for the new Pigtronix Infinity looper. I have high expectations for this one! Hopefully in a month or so should be out. I'm a buyer!

I think you might be quite surprised with the RC-300's capabilites! I needed to know how to do something, so I went into the manual and started finding all kinds of things I never knew it was capable of (and that's just in one section that I needed to find some answers to). You might want to browse through the manual and see if it might appeal to the things you're looking for:

For those on a budget, Vox just introduced a budget looper pedal by the name of "Lil' Looper":

Just a word of warning for anybody considering running the Windows 8 Consumer Preview ... the Boss RC-300 drivers are not supported and you will not be able to use the digital audio interface. I installed Win 8 last week and have been unable to see the pedal in the list of audio devices connected. Today I tried to reinstall the drivers and got an error saying that this version of windows is not supported. I am completely bummed out. The Kronos works perfectly under Windows 8. Gah Sad

Thanks for warning everyone! New OS's are the ONLY thing I won't upgrade, or switch to, until they've been out for at least a year. Your warning is a prime example of one of the many reasons for this. Windows 7 (64-bit) was out for quite a long time before I finally went with it Wink
I feel bad for you... I know how much fun you were having with that pedal Sad
