Re: RC-50 and Speed Control



Maybe the hardware version of FlyLoops will be the answer to our 
needs....that is, if Aaron implements most of the software features in the 
hardware unit.

My dream is a stereo EDP/Looperlative/Repeater like unit, inside a 
USB/Computer programmable floor unit the size of the EDP foot controller, 
complete with multiple TRS expression pedal jacks for controlling volume, 
pitch, fades, etc, and a USB connectors for hooking up more MIDI 
controllers 
to access more features.  I'd pay $2000 + for that unit if it popped up on 
the market.

Hi Kris,
That's the sort of looper I'm looking for too but add variable feedback 
control. I don't think any hardware device meet your specs: Boomerang, 
Repeater, Timefactor, EH 2880, RC-50 etc. Most manufacturers build delay's 
or (phrase) samplers, but nothing with best of both worlds in the price 
range of max $500.

RC-50:
- stereo: yes, audio quality is excellent
- reverse: yes
- variable speed and pitch: no => it has tempo sync option but it sounds 
horrible imo
- loops: 3, running in sync or independent
- feedback control: sort of => no delay type of variable feedback control 
using an expression pedal. Workaround: send sub-outputs to auxility in 
(stereo), level decreases with each loop depending on the aux-in level
