You can use them for either punching the Reverse function in mid loop or you can use the bigger switch(the one with two buttons) to go up or down a loop track with your foot.

what do the additional boss footswitches(fs5u and fs6) that can be purchased with the RC 2, 20xl and 50 do exactly? Its seems they would be more useful for the RC 2 because of its more limited live performance capabilities. I play with a RC-20xl.

 

If you have simultaneous loops going, does it allow you to undo the most recent overdub, but allow the earlier recorded loops in teh phrase to keep playing?

 

 

Does it allow you to move to one of the other banks while you are playing live?

 

Basically, try to sell me on it? How will it make my life complete?!

In regards to the RC2 vs the RC20xl, they are pretty
much the same in their functions, but that second
pedal will come in really handy if your'e switching
from loop slot to loop slot.  Also, and don't quote me
on this, the 20 has a few more functions than the 2,
the 2 is basic, in the sense that it just records and
overdubs, the 20 I believe has reverse, and loop
quantize, as well as using one of the pedals for tap
tempo(not too sure about that yet).  I own the 2 and
if you need a very basic loop pedal for some simple
layering, that'll do it, but if you are using it for
composition, I'd go with the 20.
