You're quickly becoming one of the best sources on the rc-505 mkii out there man, big up!
Thanks man! Surely what I'm aiming for
Didn’t expect to see you here 😂
@@Orionloops gotta support the tutorial squad
HOORAY!!!!!! Every time I sit down to work out the effects on my RC505mkII, I get sidetracked being "creative". Large fun...
Been there done that. More than I should lol
Thank you, it is nice to see someone taking time to explain things.
Enjoyed the easy explanation of the RC505 MKII effects, well done. Thank you.
Super helpful video man! I have the mk2 and am learning the ropes, your videos are extremely helpful. Subscribed and looking forward to more.
thanks alot man, best info source on the world wide web for looping 🙌🏻 & funny performance too 😄 liked your video alot!
Woooah the scale of modifications with each sound that this looper brings and the functionality of it all is just amazing,cant wait to finally get it,been on my mind for quite some time,this tutorial sealed the deal for me,thanks for the very proficent and informative tutorial,you make it all feel much accesible
Cheers!
Hey thanks a lot for this comment. I really appreciate it 😀
Wow i`m a totally newbee with my rc 505 and you pushed me into another level with your tutorial. thanks Arthur
Just got the 505 mk2, don't know much about it at all, but just watching a few of your how to video's has taught me enough to get started....I subscribed and now will learn more....thanks...
Well that was pretty outstanding and the explanation of the effects was much needed. Thanks
Great video! Finally filled some blank spots thank you for making these
You are an absolute legend! Thank you brother. Very much appreciated. Love from Australia.
More tutorials please! These are great. And there aren’t many great sources for mk2 tutorials
They are coming! Had to take a break to sort some things out in life but I'm returning soon my friend! :))
Lo-fi means low fidelity, It's not just a genre. Fidelity is "quality of recording."
"Do I sound like I'm on old time radio?"
Nickle Back used a "Lo-fi" effect in Alive.
Jethro Tull used it in Aqua Lung.
It's almost like distortion, where distortion just turns up the gain/volume until it clips off the peaks and valleys, but lo-fi is a combination of a low pass filter and distortion.
If you wanted to make your audio sound like it is coming through a telephone, you would use the lo-fi setting.
Thank you Arthur, great explanation! I am trying to find a video about the rhythmic part, I just bought the RC-505 MKII and I am trying to figure out how to loop it, to have different set ups just using the loop station. Thanks for these videos, absolutely helping!
Thanks Arthur!! Keep posting videos for Rc-505mkII!
Thank you, thats very helpful!
I think you should do a real full PLAYLIST about the RC 505 MKII cause nobody made it until now, ( or nobody is good as u)! From the beginning for beginners and everyone who first time buy this brilliant machine ! Ciao
appreciate this video and content! There's a helpful setting in the time parameter on the Delay effect.. if you keep turning the knob further to the left, you'll see times relative to the existing tempo (1/4 note, dotted 1/8, 1 measure, etc.) It's a weird, buried setting but probably closer to what most users are thinking of this setting.
Yes!! There's that! Very useful settings. Thanks for the heads-up Rob!
Heyyyyy 👋
Thanks for the vid!
Btw I really like the editing 👍
Thank YOU for the suggestion my friend! Glad you liked it :)
I think I'm getting the hang of this editing stuff 😬
@@LoopArtist oh and btw, with osc vocoder can I play any note on the midi device and it will play the same note? Or still need to sequence?
great infos - thanks!
Grateful for these
I'm so excited to use mine! It came today. Now i just have to get a new battery for my acoustic amp.
you should check out beatboxers using the loopstation, its insane
Great videos man very helpful not a looper but a song writer so I have used the 505 mk2 for recording through my rubix 44 interface and on to garage band or Logic Pro work’s great
Thanks man! Glad you liked it. That's an awesome setup, specially with Logic. I'm on Windows but plan to get a Mac eventually just for it
very useful demo video thank u
nice video, thank you.
YOU ARE GREAT!
Great job my dude, keep up the good work your time will come.
Thanks my friend!
Helpful!
Thanks man!
ulllltra helpfull bro!
Hey there, i love your videos and they helped me a lot. I have a question tho, is it possible to use an ipad as a midi controller on the loopstation (To control the osc bot for example)
Thanks.
Nice one! Do you have more info on the slicer patterns and arpeggiating possibility
Hi Arthur thanks for all your videos, do you have a video that talks about specifically routing the RC505mk2 into a DAW, into seperate channels? I saw your other video but i don't think thats the same
10/10
Great video. Thank you. Can you put effects on the rhythm track???
Just watched your video and I’m looking for the ultimate tool for a single/duo show and creating loops on the fly.
A couple of questions
With the effects like for instance the harmonizer for vocals and the ability to turn my guitar into a bass on the fly for a loop. Can this be done easily and quickly can while playing? Example the vocals on during chorus and off singing and or talking?
Oh.. maybe you could do a video on the inputs and out puts and the options available with separation and effects. Thanks Man great Video!
So tnx for this tutorial! Just got a question! Are effects(both input/tracks) parallel or series?! I mean do they send signal from A to B .....? Or they send it separately to master.
Hi Arthur... thks man for the video. Question: in the insert option of the effects, mine is settle to all and i'm not able to use the effects at all. I have absolutly to choose the instrument to get the effects on. What did I did wrong? How come I can't no longer affect the effects on all the input??
hello, it is possible use the harmonizer effect while a guitar is put in one input chanel?if yes, which one is the way to have a right harmonize of guitar chords playing?
Hello Arthur, could you please help me because I see that you are using the RC505mk2 with Ableton live and a usb midi keyboard. I can’t get autorec to work on a loop when I play a note from my keyboard that comes out of Ableton live. when I record a loop autorec with the microphone no worries, it starts when a sound comes out. can you tell me if there is a specific configuration. thank you for your help. you rock
love your videos!! i was hoping to see the roll FX on here. it's my favorite effect from the rc505 mk 1, but it's not working the same on Mk2. anybody else running into this issue and know what's up?
Can you do a video on the best vocal effects. I would like to have an effects bank for each instrument and vkcals
Do you have any info how to run the Maschine MK3 Mikro thru RC 505? I can't seem to find a lot of solid info on it.
just got my Boss RC MII 505.
Looking to hook it up to the RD2000,along with RD Versalab,,Woo,,any suggestions appreciated.
I’ve seen several comments of people on this MKII that it misses a physical Mic Leveler.
How do you quickly adjust mic levels on this mkII?
Doubting if I should get a second hand MKI or a new MKII
I do prefer the Reverb from the original RC-505.
It feels (and sounds) more digitized, compared to the more 'natural' sound Reverb - MK1).
Also, would one agree the reverb on the MK2 is delayed ever so slightly, without the pre-delay added into the mix? (pun-unintended)
Hey there, could you tell how to connect the mk2 to a loudspeaker? What I mean is, what kind of cable is needed.
Also, is it possible to connect the mk2 to a small speaker, let's say a JBL Flip, that uses microjack?
Hi thanks for the video. can u show a video for guitar looping, I try it but cannot make it , thanks 🙏
Hey there! Sure thing! It's definitely on my video ideas list :)
Hi Arthur! Thanks for the video! I was wondering if you could please help me with an issue -- I'm struggling! When I record my tracks with the input fx on, the fx do not stay in the recording. It's like when I turn the input fx on, they sound in the live output, but they don't record on the track. Do you know what the issue might be? Thank you!
Hello, do you have a ebook that I can buy on how to use the rc 505 mk 2, uses of all the buttons, tips and tricks, etc. willing to buy here. Thanks
I wonder Does this machine work directly with 250 ohm headphones or does it need a sound card? ....Thanks in advance
Ayyy
Ayooo
Hi man thanks a lot. How do you manage the display info on input and track FX? Is that still a bug since I don’t seem to find my way around seeing what FXs are chosen. I mean I can see them via (too) complicated operation of diving into FX menus etc but (as in mk1) there seem to be no shortcut to seeing whats actually on there. Right, you can choose either the input FX OR the track FX to be displayed in the MENU-SET UP-DISPLAY MODE … but it just shows either or. I wonder if you can help me.
Ok thanks, it was too easy, use the arrows to switch the display view haha 😂
Hey man! Sorry for the late reply. I was about to tell you exactly this haha. Glad you found out 😀
I am sending my voice (Mic Input) to the "MAIN" output and the tracks (1,2,3,4,5) to the "SUB 1" output, so that the sound engineer can have the music on one side and the voice by another independently. I don't know why my voice comes out but without FX, do you know anything about it? Thank you very much for your videos, big hug
Hey i had a rc 505 mk II before 2 Years and i didn´t know right what to do. I used it more as Instrumentalist with Keyboard and with your Informations i´m shure i could use it in a other Way. So i sended it back and didn´t really know what this RC 505 has in it.
does it have sidechain effect?
When on screen show looper data damage what is I can’t loop can you help please 😣
I’m trying to create a Hall effect, so something like the echo effect but the feedback sounds horrid, whereas when I use my amps Hall effect jt sounds a lot more like a hall. I don’t know if that makes sense.
Yep. You might just like your amp fx better than the RC's. That's totally normal, specially considering digital fx vs analog. Just a matter of taste my friend :))
Slowgear is prob the only fx nobody ever uses in the beatbox loop community
Tbf I've used it quite a bit. Putting it after a tremolo or slicer gives it a bit of coolness
I guess pretty many loopers use it for the sidechain effect
Theres no vinyl flick o the mk2??
I have a burning question... FX A-A thru D-D... are they all in series? Also, would any bank be in parallel with another bank, like A bank be in parallel with B, B in parallel with C, and C might be in parallel with D? Is FX A-A in parallel with B-A, and B-A would be in a parallel with C-A or D-A. The real question is: "are any FX or banks in series with any other FX (whether Input FX or Track FX)"?
Hi there, I wonder if you can help
Me please? I do sound healing with vocals and crystal bowls etc.. so I bought this boss looper for my vocals.. however I cannot get any sound to come from the device?? I’ve plugged my microphone in and still nothing? Does it have to be connected to
A speaker? If so I have krk speakers and those cables don’t seem to connect to the looper? Could you please help please. Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✨✨✨✨✨
Hey there! You do need a listening device, ie: headphone or speakers, which you plug to one of the outputs (usually "phone" or "main"). They all connect with a 1/4 inch connector so if your speaker doesn't have this kind of port you might want to consider looking for 1/4 inch adapters. Having the outputs connected to something, if there's no sound yet you should look wether your mic is a condenser mic or not, if it is you need to turn on the phantom power within the RC's settings. Hope that helps :)
Omg thank you so so much!!!!! Huuuuuuge help ✨✨✨✨✨✨🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I've got the 505 mk II and I want to play guitar loops. How do I connect and do settings to get the guitar to work with the looper station?
I am just running analog from a Boss GT 10 into the stereo instruments input works great, lower the input gain. I am trying to get a FCB1010 (foot pedal) working with the 505 but no luck yet.
If you are going straight into the 505 from a guitar you are probobly going to want some input effects, im sure Arthur know which ones are killer!
Input gains are under Menu - mixer
Thanks strider. I'm actually having issues using guitar with the 505mkii. I plug my guitar in but it doesn't record. My mic works fine. Condenser or standard. Can't get guitar to play through the 505mkii at all.
@@markmccluskey8984 I wish I cold have helped, best of luck.
is it possible to turn on the rc 505mk2 using a powerbank ?
I don't think so man. You would need a power bank with a 9V/2A output which from my quick research doesn't exist :(
Isn’t birdcord or ripcord the answer? I understood from Friidon’s stuff that it’d work just fine!
@@djembepaja wow I didn't know about that! Seems like a great product. It still outputs only 1A and the RC-505 technically needs 2A but if it's working for someone else then it's all good. Thanks for the tip :)
I recommend visiting a local electronics shop (the "resistors, potentiometers and cables" kind) and ask for a custom-built 5V to 9V converter (remember to check polarity or you might damage the RC; bringing your machine and the manual is a good idea). You can also look for USB boost or "step-up" converters that can handle 2A on ebay. Haven't tested those, so idk about their quality
is the sustainer not a compressor
Are you from Brazil???
Ahhh …. So sustainer is just compression and EQ. I thought it was time-based 🙈
Is it safe to buy this yet? Did they patch up all the bugs?
Hey Mike!
They patched most of the bugs, yes. Personally I haven't had any since last patch but I've heard of people still having some here and there, specially when messing with MIDI activated effects like the OSC
Thanks
Can you help me i have a problem
Your explanation to the Lo-Fi was a little strange. It is not on the RC-505 or related to the genre (I don't even know if that is a genre. Everything is a genre these days. Is it the same as lo-fi hiphop?).
Lo-Fi just mean Low Fidelty (low quality) as opposed to Hi-Fi meaning High Fidelty (high quality). In this case it is just a couple of things to degrade you (I guess maybe only sample rate and bitrate reduction. Distortion?).
In general it can be anything that degrades and makes your sound lo-fi (vinyl hiss, tape emulation, tape hiss, tape saturator, distortion, samplerate reduction, bitrate reduction, etc.). It has all been around many centuries before the genre. 🙂
Good video. 👍🙂
Good explanations but as a beginner, you don't explain how to get to the settings and I can't see what knobs you are turning! Very frustrating that I can't find someone to slowly explain the whole process.
you are not even showing which buttons you are pressing.
Do I need to guess how you turned on the reverb?
Zbs obzor
We had to stop watching because he's putting the camera on his face and not the controls so we can't tell what he's trying to show.
Obrigado cara! Também gosto muito o Loopdaddy.
Hey Aurthur! I have some ideas for future videos. You have some of the best MK2 videos up atm. Do you have an email address you can be reached at?
Hey David! Thanks my man, glad you enjoy the videos :)
Yes! Please send me those! You can reach me at roldao.arthur@gmail.com
Keep up the awesome work! Your content deserves a service like "promo sm"!!!
