I agree, it's also my only complaint
when you play in a band it's quite hard to stop the RC2 by two taps and continue playing and staying in rythm
you can do it in one stomp with the additionnal footswitch ?
yes you can, i hooked up my fender amp channel switch to it last night and you can stop it in one. but i want a smaller switch.

just try whatever you have, i just used a mono patch lead, the only thing is because its not a momentary switch once you click it, the loop stops. but you need to click it again otherwise when you start the loop again it deletes the loop lol.
if you have momentary switch it will work better.

Nice one, I might try that too. Will listen to your demo later, though I know what it does ;)

cheers mike, in the future i am just gonna pm you any future demos.

its defo an awesome tool. i got it for only 99 poonds too!

what i didnt get to show you on there is theres also an auto setting. basically you press the pedal. and it starts recording only as soon as you start playing. really kool setting.
also i showed you it on the quantise doo dad, but you can also just start recording without a beat and it guesses your tempo and starts the beat in time when your loop starts(does that make sense?) thats a very kool feature.

iam very pleased with it. boss wins again.

Both those features are really clever, and kudos to boss for not holding some of the functionality back for a later RC-3. That's amazing. well chuffed for you.

People are cunts about downloading our hardwork in sample form. They're the fools for it.

i got a switch from that guy at www.redonionsolutions.co.uk
its really tiny and it also can move to next loop since it has two switches.
its looks like that

funny anuff i just came across the same switch(but with one stereo jack) on ebay. its 18 quid which makes it cheaper than a boss one. but its still more expensive than i could make myself..but i dunno i kinda cant be assed to make my own for the sake of saving a tenner.
i will probley go for that..
