Good basic looper!
Damguitar 30.12.2021
This is a simple looper that you can use straight out of the box. You can layer multiple tracks to achieve a depth of sound. Solid pedal (like all BOSS pedals)
It's simplicity is probably also its drawback: you can only save the loop you last recorded and you have to get used to hitting the pedal at exactly the right time or a new layer will be out of sync.

If you want a looper to add a simple backing loop this is perfect. If you want a wall of sound that you can save and recall again you'll have to invest in something with more features.

Simple, well built pedal!
DannyLee 06.01.2015
Only had this product a month but so far it has been outstanding. Nothing complex about it, just a simple, well built pedal! Sound output is incredible and a very clean signal. Would recommend using the boss power cable as it can go through batteries, especially if your using it a lot! Would also recommend using a pedal board or securing the pedal to the floor, depending on the floor surface it can move around a little which can be frustrating. The pedal doesn't have many features which I think is a good thing, it loops and you can adjust the volume output. Not something you need to overomplicate when your using it in a live situation.

Great for the price
Ray97 10.07.2017
Was looking for an affordable first looper and immediately had my eyes on the RC-1.

It's quite basic and great if you haven't used a looper before.

The only control you have is a level knob wich adjusts the volume of the loop.

The ring display is great to keep track of where you are in the loop, it makes it easier to do more timing based overdubs.

The single footswitch tap-doubletap control is a bit clumsy but usable. I'm definetly planning on getting the boss footswitch for it, that should make operation much smoother.

You can also change the way the pedal works by methods described in the manual. This way you can configure it to better fit your taste.

Overall, for the price, this is a great first-time looper.

Pros:
affordable
simple design
ring display helps keeping track
changeable configuration

Cons:
Single switch makes operation a bit clumsy
drains batteries very quickly

Built like a tank!
mcomello 24.02.2018
Easy to use looper. Love the circular led thing that shows you where in the loop process you are. Not as much features as some of the more expensive models, but for me it does the job perfectly.
Remembers your last loop, after it has been disconnected from power, which was a nice plus.
And it is built like a tank, true Boss quality.

Great first looping pedal
Boguz 20.09.2018
This is a simple and straight forward looping pedal. Good build quality and good sound, easy to use, affordable and a lot of fun to play with.
I wish it had a couple more features, but still I think it is a great way to get into the looping world!

Easy Looper
Latsch 02.03.2020
Straightforward controls, and not many knobs, perfect for beginners wanting to branch into the looping stuff.

Only con for me, and thats Boss specific, i dont like the Boss Pedal-Switch. I always step on it slightly too weak to register.. :p

Super Looper!!!!
Jules1222 07.01.2018
Love this pedal. One of my favorite on my board. I use my dual looper for guitar and vocals so use this single one for ukulele mainly. Great sound and very simple operation. Colour coded lights super helpful when playing in poorly lit venues. would highly recommend.
