Boss RC-10R Rhythm Loop Station

We love a good looper pedal, and who doesn’t? It opens up your creativity, takes you down practicing and songwriting paths you may never have explored, and turn repetition into just plain FUN. When said looper pedal also features a slew of useable drum tracks as well, it’s pretty hard to beat. Such is the case with the Boss RC-10R Rhythm Loop Station, a powerful, options-laden device combining song-based looping and organic rhythms.

The RC-10R is a next-generation, real-time creation machine, enabling you to develop spontaneous music that moves and grooves with two unique song sections, intros/endings, and rhythm fills. Onboard controls and visual loop indicators provide easy, self-contained operation, while expanded control is possible with external switches and MIDI. A vast rhythm library is on hand to cover nearly any music genre, and you can even import your own rhythms to personalize the RC-10R for specific songs and styles.

Some features include:

– Next-generation performance tool combining song-based looping and dynamic rhythms in a small footprint
– Cover nearly any genre with over 280 preset rhythm styles that include two unique sections, intro/ending fills, and two transition fills
– Sixteen versatile drum kits with high-quality sounds from the BOSS and Roland rhythm libraries
– Stereo looper engine with six hours of recording time and class-leading 32-bit AD/DA and 32-bit floating-point processing
– Serial two-track operation for building loop performances with two independent song parts
– Two circular indicators display loop and rhythm playback status
– Simple operation with informative LCD and intuitive interface
– Onboard storage for 99 phrase memories and 50 user rhythms
– Selectable output filter to optimize guitar and rhythm sounds for a guitar amp or full-range sound system
– Support for expanded control via external footswitches, an expression pedal, or MIDI
– Full MIDI I/O provided with space-saving mini TRS jacks (BMIDI-5-35 adaptor cable available separately)
– Mac/Windows software for importing WAV loops and user rhythms in SMF format
– Additional content available for download at BOSS Tone Central

While the RC-10R’s loop and rhythm engines work together in complete harmony, they’re also designed to work just as well apart. You’re able to build two independent loops with no rhythmic backing at all, perfect for creating stripped-down song performances and evolving ambient soundscapes. It’s also possible to use the RC-10R as a foot-operated drum machine with real-time control over song sections and fills, making it an essential partner for stage accompaniment, jam sessions, and practice. We run through some options, create some rhythms and show you what’s what in our demo video below, so be sure you head on over to YouTube to check that out.
