Re: RC-300



I saw it at NAMM. Rico Loop demo-ed it for me... but he really knew very 
little about the specifics and he didn't seem to want to discuss anything 
with me.

it's interesting. I like the 3 separate stop/record/play thing... no more 
selecting...
the effects seem interesting, although, no reverb... but you can choose 
pre loop or post loop efx, which can make for some interesting things, 
especially with the pitch function.

there's still no real click track sound and the guide track is still not 
pannable so you still lose 2 outputs if you're using the click to send to 
a drummer. I guess I didn't complain loud enough about those things 
previously.

no more tap tempo button.... weird. So you have to have an external tap 
tempo if you want to do that.

the exp pedal seems pretty useless. on the rc50 I am able to use an 
external midi pedal to control the 'selected' loop's volume, which is VERY 
handy... but now, there's no more selection, so that's gone...

no one knows if it syncs better to other devices or if the midi clock 
output is actually stable now. I tried to send midi clock to a boss 
metronome from my rc50 and the metronome couldn't follow it, too 
unstable... wow... geniuses

I don't think I'm going to run out and buy one any time soon, but I would 
like to mess with it more.

the new pigtronix looper seems really cool and different.

I know a lot of people who bought an RC300 hoping it would be a lot better 
than the rc-50 and then sold it cause it wasn't enough of an improvement 
over the RC-50.
by a lot I mean 3...
