Very robust, should last forever. Review: Easy looping - A big step up from the rc30 , the rc500 delivers big time .Looping is easy and the sound quality is much improved. I use it on my solo set and works great. The onboard drums sound pretty good but that’s what I found the most time consuming and to be quit honest difficult . On my live set I use a beat buddy drum pedal and use the midi contriols in the settings which makes life a little easier. As a looper it couldn’t be more straightforward but as I’m not a drummer the beat buddy is a better option for what I do in a live situation.. ## Features - Advanced two-track looper with onboard mixing and deep control options. - Class-leading sound quality with 32-bit AD/DA and 32-bit floating-point processing. - Stereo looper engine with 13 hours of recording time. - LCD with multi-color backlight for viewing loop status and editing parameters. - Mono/stereo inputs for easy pedalboard integration, plus independent XLR mic input with phantom power. - Reverse function and Loop FX (repeat, scatter, shift, and vinyl flick) for dynamic and engaging loop performances. - 16 different drum kits and 57 preset rhythms with A/B variations. - Support for expanded control via external footswitches, an expression pedal, or MIDI. - Full MIDI I/O provided with space-saving mini TRS jacks (BMIDI-5-35 adaptor cable available separately). - Onboard storage for 99 phrase memories. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08KJ4QM7F | | Amperage | 500 Milliamps | | Audio Output Effects | Loop | | Best Sellers Rank | 376 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 1 in Loopers & Sampler Pedals | | Brand | BOSS | | Brand Name | BOSS | | Colour | Maroon | | Connector Type | Mini jack (MIDI), jack (AUX) | | Controls Type | Push Button | | Country of Origin | Malaysia | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 407 Reviews | | Finish Type | Painted | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04957054516758 | | Hardware Interface | USB | | Included Components | XLR Microphone Cable, Mono/Stereo Input for Pedalboard Integration | | Item Dimensions | 17 x 13.8 x 6 centimetres | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 17L x 13.8W x 6H centimetres | | Item Type Name | RC-500 | | Item Weight | 950 Grams | | Item weight | 950 Grams | | Manufacturer | Roland | | Manufacturer Part Number | RC-500 | | Model Name | RC-500 | | Model Number | RC-500 | | Power Source | AC Adapter | | Product Warranty | 5 years. | | Product dimensions | 17L x 13.8W x 6H centimetres | | Set Name | 2 | | Signal Format | Analog | | Style | RC-500 | | UPC | 761294516751 | | Voltage | 9 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** BOSS - **Style:** RC-500 - **Colour:** Maroon - **Product dimensions:** 17L x 13.8W x 6H centimetres - **Item weight:** 950 Grams ## Images ![BOSS RC-500 Loop Station | Advanced Two-Track Looper with Onboard Mixing & Deep Control Options | Class-Leading Sound Quality | 16 Versatile Drum Kits | 13 Hours Record Time | Expanded Control Support - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81NGxZ6sP5L.jpg) ![BOSS RC-500 Loop Station | Advanced Two-Track Looper with Onboard Mixing & Deep Control Options | Class-Leading Sound Quality | 16 Versatile Drum Kits | 13 Hours Record Time | Expanded Control Support - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51IwRrtM1IL.jpg) ![BOSS RC-500 Loop Station | Advanced Two-Track Looper with Onboard Mixing & Deep Control Options | Class-Leading Sound Quality | 16 Versatile Drum Kits | 13 Hours Record Time | Expanded Control Support - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81CBMNNi4lL.jpg) ![BOSS RC-500 Loop Station | Advanced Two-Track Looper with Onboard Mixing & Deep Control Options | Class-Leading Sound Quality | 16 Versatile Drum Kits | 13 Hours Record Time | Expanded Control Support - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41FCeDZQVWL.jpg) ![BOSS RC-500 Loop Station | Advanced Two-Track Looper with Onboard Mixing & Deep Control Options | Class-Leading Sound Quality | 16 Versatile Drum Kits | 13 Hours Record Time | Expanded Control Support - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Sb33DRhDL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Model** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do you have to buy a amplifier or microphone to use it?** A: You do not have to buy an amplifier to use it. It is good to be have an amplifier to get the right volume though. You do need some headphones to listen to the sound you are producing. You can also use a set of mini speakers (though it is not always easy to hear through these).You will need a microphone and/or an instrument that you can plug into the box. **Q: After i switch off the loop station or even take off the battery do i loose the memory recording so the next i swich it on do ineed to do them again ?** A: After putting in your recording you must Wright it into the memory or you will loose it. Cheers Paul. **Q: Has anyone used it with a Beatbuddy?** A: No experience of the Beatbuddy.....but it looks like it would be OK to use with the Boss Looper..... **Q: Is it possible to plug headphones directly into it?** A: Hi. Their is no 'headphone out' on the unit and the main out signal will be too low for use with headphones. You could use headphones if you have a headphone amplifier or if you have a headphone out in your amplifier.Warmest regardsMartin ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Boss so great quality *by M***S on 28 May 2026* The usual excellent quality from Boss, easy enough to use but quite complex to program.
