Inspiring the Looping Scene for Nearly 20 Years

Right now, somewhere in the world, a live musician is breaking the rules with a loop pedal. From headliners at Glastonbury to the hot-tip local songwriter at the open-mic night, the sheer possibilities of looping have attracted musical mavericks from every genre, each one of them twisting the concept to fit their own vision.

The buzz around looping has never been louder. But every revolution needs a flashpoint – after one million units sold, there's no doubt it was the BOSS RC Loop Station series that lit the fuse.

• Combine song-based looping and dynamic rhythms
• Stereo looper engine with six hours of recording time
• Over 280 preset rhythm styles
• Sixteen versatile drum kits
• Serial two-track operation
• Crystal clear sound quality thanks to studio grade AD/DA processing
• Selectable output filte
• Additional content via BOSS Tone Central

Adapts to Your Creative Approach 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.	Expanded Control for Power Users With its interactive displays and multi-function controls, the RC-10R is a standalone powerhouse. But some users crave even more control, and the RC-10R delivers. To start, there’s a jack for connecting up to two footswitches or an expression pedal, providing extended control of stop, undo/redo, loop volume, and other functions. Going further, full MIDI I/O is provided on space-saving mini TRS jacks, opening up a multitude of direct-access functions and sync options with other MIDI devices.	Class-Leading Looper Engine BOSS Loop Stations are renowned for their great sound quality, and the RC-10R offers the best to date. Its loop recording engine features 32-bit AD/DA and 32-bit floating-point processing, providing audio performance that rivals the very best studio gear. And like all Loop Stations, it’s possible to keep the dry signal 100-percent analog to preserve your natural core tone. In addition the processor allows maximum clarity with multiple loop layers, keeping your each layer of your performance crystal clear.	Optimized Sound with Any Setup Electric guitar and rhythm have different amplification needs—guitarists usually rely on their amp to color their sound, while a rhythm machine needs a clear, full-range system to sound its best. The RC-10R has you covered, allowing you to send the looper and rhythms to discrete outputs and separate amp systems. But in those situations when you can’t run two amps or just want a simpler setup, the RC-10R has a neat trick up its sleeve. With a variety of unique tone filters, you’re able to optimize the guitar and/or rhythm sound for amplification through a single system, whether it’s a guitar amp, PA system, or studio monitors.
