Studio musicians, live performances, singers, and others may all benefit from the Boss RC-505KMII Loop Station Tabletop Looper, the next generation of tabletop loopers. RC-505KMII loop station gives you infinite freedom to express your creativity with its five stereo phrase tracks, high-quality audio thanks to 32-bit AD/DA conversion and 32-bit floating-point audio processing, variety of built-in effects for mixing, and enormous internal storage space. The Boss RC-5050MKII Loop Station gives you the freedom to explore uncharted territory thanks to its host of cutting-edge new tools and capabilities. The RC-505MKII expands upon the capabilities of the original, best-selling tabletop looper by integrating brand-new effects such as Electric FX and Harmonic FX, allowing you to shape your sounds in ways never before possible.

Redesigned faders with a longer throw allow for accurate changes, and the new Mark Back feature allows for exact redo/undo actions during performance. With the XLR phantom power inputs, two stereo line input pairs, three stereo line output pairs, and MIDI in and out, you may use this unit with virtually any instrument to create intricate loops. It's simpler than ever to work with your current infrastructure and unleash your imagination. You may import and export sounds and rhythms through USB, or you can sample your instrument and import the generated WAV file for use in subsequent sessions.

The RC-505 comes with a variety of inputs that lets you mix a number of different audio sources as you create your loops. You get XLR mic/jack input with phantom power, mono/stereo 1/4 inputs for synths, guitars etc, as well as mini-jack for connecting smartphones. 

Built-in effects that are both flexible and powerful

The RC-505MKII does more than just provide you a place to lay down tracks; it also gives you a suite of powerful effects that you can use to fine-tune your sounds as you go, thus turning it into a mobile editing studio. The RC-505MKII is an ideal device for adding colour and texture to your vocals, guitar tracks, and more, and it does it in two distinct ways: via its Input FX and its Track FX. You may modify the sound as it's being recorded with the Input FX and as it's being played back with the Track FX.

The RC-505MKII Loop Station's phrase tracks include individual FX settings, giving you the freedom to modify individual tracks without altering the rest of the loop. These preferences are stored in unique memories and may be remembered instantly for each phrase track.

Sound your best whether you're beatboxing or singing in the studio with the help of the Robot voice manipulator, Vocoder, Vinyl Flick, Beat Repeat, and the all new Harmonic and Electric FX. Moreover, a global compressor and reverb effects are included to process the dynamics of your whole sound and to provide depth and space with reverb. Each phrase track has access to four rapid banks for instant recall of previously used sounds and tones, and may use four effects simultaneously to perform a wide variety of tone shaping.

Wide range of MIDI controls and connection options

The RC-505MKII Loop Station Tabletop Looper is designed to accommodate a wide variety of input sources, making it a great companion for multi-instrumentalist performers who wish to loop not just their voice but also electric guitars, basses, keyboards, synthesisers, and more. With its two phantom-powered XLR microphone inputs, two stereo line input pairs, and three stereo line output pairs, loop station can accommodate a wide variety of instruments and audio playback formats.

With the RC-505MKII, you may connect not just electronic instruments, but also MIDI VST instruments in your digital audio workstation (DAW) or compatible hardware instruments, allowing you to expand your setup and create cascading loops over all sources. With its two expression pedal outputs, you may use an expression pedal to adjust any number of parameters—ideal for multi-instrument stomp-box performances. The RC-505MKII has a USB port built right in, so you can use it to transfer and save WAV samples, back up your data, and bring in new rhythmic patterns with the included RC Rhythm Converter.
