Just bought the RC-500 after owning the RC-30 for about 7 years...My initial thoughts right out of the box, were that this thing has so much you can do with it. The drums are a huge upgrade from the RC-30. I'm still getting the hang of this thing, and so far I've been having fun with it. The 2 main cons I have found: The RC-500 has no physical volume control for the rhythm section. You have to press and hold down the button associated with starting and stopping the drums, then you get to the volume control. This is a huge bummer for me, especially coming from the RC-30, where the rhythm section has its' own volume knob. The RC-500 takes only 4 AA batteries, compared to the previous RC-30, that takes 6. The batteries only last about an hour and a half, while using the pedal normally. I could take the RC-30 out with new batteries and it seemed to last for a couple days, seeing as you don't leave the cables plugged in. I have began watching many videos showing how you can utilize midi pedals and expression pedals to control some of the onboard functions, I'm hoping maybe I can control the drum volume with an added pedal maybe? However, upon finding out these couple downsides, I feel compelled to purchase the RC-300, which is more expensive, but seems to do everything I would need it to! Time shall tellRead full review

So many levels you can dive into with this looper, yet the entry is easy and gives instant access to fun! There's an in depth manual but I would recommend one of the many instructional videos on Youtube. Shopping on Ebay gave me the best possible price, and delivery was faster than promised.

Awesome sound quality and features! It's my first looper, and it's taking me a while to figure out how some of it works, but I love it.

Really happy with the looper. I am coming from a pigtronix infinity looper that I was in “meh” love with. Felt cheap and I fried two of them. Made a move to the boss and glad I did. Syncs with other clock sources with no issues.

The possibilities are endless. If you can think it, you can do it with this looper pedal. Also, shout out to Boss for adding in time signatures. So go ahead and jam out in 15/8
