Boss RC 202 Loop Station

The BOSS RC-202 Loop Station pedal is for musicians who want creative control of all parts of their music, live and live. 

The BOSS RC-202 Loop Station is the next generation music pick tool. This compact unit records loops, renders sounds with multi-effects and records them in memory, all in real time. Perfect for digital musicians, beatboxers and for anyone who wants to go from multi to multi-instrumentalist with just a touch of a button.

The RC-202 has two loop channels, with no time limit. The memory capacity of 2Gb allows you to store up to 3 hours of recording in .WAV format at 16bit, 44.1khz. Loops can be stored in 64 tracks divided by 8 memory banks, which you can use to improvise and apply effects overhead without interrupting your performance. The RC-202 also comes with rhythm patterns of origin.

The effects to use in real time are the most powerful we can find in any loop station. With four Input FX and four Track FX simultaneously available, you can record or play back the loops by applying the more than 40 available effects. Track FX Beat, Filter, Slicer and others allow you to create DJ and sampling effects.

The design of the RC-202 was made to think of who is doing a lot at the same time, so its control panel is colorful, with different colors for each function and very practical. Despite being considered a pedal, it is to be at your fingertips, so you can easily click and rotate buttons and exercise the most creative control you can expand with a standing MIDI controller or keyboard.

Made of very sturdy plastic, the playback recording buttons are rubberized, and effects can be adjusted with easy-to-grasp and well-arranged potentiometers on the panel with dedicated selectors to enable / disable them. Dynamic lighting, in addition to creating a high aesthetic impact, is functional to indicate the activated effects and their connections.

The BOSS RC-202 allows for microphone connection via XLR with phantom power, mono / stereo instrument inputs and a stereo AUX input, which can be used simultaneously to capture and mix loops.

The BOSS RC-202 can be connected to a computer via USB to transfer the loops to a file, or integrate it with a music software or digital audio editor, so they can work with your computer. And if they still want to complicate things, they can chain it to another loop station, through MIDI synchronization.

The potential of the BOSS RC-202 is unlimited in the right hands, no matter how busy they are. Jump in and control it with the BOSS RC-202.
