Re: Boss RC-2 Shipping Now...Just Recieved Mine

I just found a work-around to the the problem of not being able to delete a loop from memory while the loop is stopped, without hearing it play again for a few seconds. You can use additional Boss footswitches (FS-5Us or FS-6s) to stop loop recording, start playback, overdub, setting tempos, clearing loops from memory, and phrase switching. And I just succesfully deleted a loop from phrase memory by simply turning the phrase select knob to a an empty phrase. Hence, this can be done with a footswitch too.

Yes, you can assign a boss foot switch to perform the same function has holding the RC-2 pedal down to delete a loop from memory, while the loop is stopped or during playback. But, without testing this, I can't say what the exact behavior will be. I can only assume that if you hold the footswitch down while the loop is stopped, it will still play the first few secons of the loop. So, we're back to deleting the loop while in playback.
