Re: What are the current probs w/RC-50?

Buy the RC-50! The Digitech may be good too but has no
Midi as far as I know.
The RC-50 certainly has very few not so nice issues ( the sound
could be a bit better, very short loops donīt work).
But I find it rather irrelevant compared to the low price and
all the positive features it comes with: 3 separate loop ways
you can use simultaneously or switch from one to
the other. Tap Tempo, reverse-playmode, drummachine
inside. Several outputs you can route to different sources (Mixer,
amps etc.).
There may be better looping devices but if you wanna have
a hardware looper this is the one.
Best,
Christo
