Welcome to the Loop Station!

The RC-1 is a petal-type recorder that lets you record audio phrases from your guitar or bass, and play them back by operating the pedal. You can create a wide variety of performances by layering sound while you record and carry out playback in real-time.

• It’s easy to create a loop phrase.
• You can record up to a maximum of approximately 12 minutes (stereo).
• You can input audio in stereo.

Panel Descriptions

Precautions When Connecting

• To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.
• Raise the amp volume only after turning on the power to all connected devices.
• When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible.
• When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the INPUT jacks may below. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.

Caution When Connecting an External Footswitch

You must power off the unit before connecting an external footswitch. If you connect the footswitch while the power is on, recorded data might be lost.

Turning On the Power

Inserting a connecting plug into the OUTPUT A jack turns on the power to the unit.

Once the connections have been completed, turn on the power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

When powering up: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last.

When powering down: Turn off the power to your guitar amp first.

• This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power-up is required before the unit will operate normally.
• Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Caution when turning off the power

Never turn off the power while the LOOP indicator is rotating or blinking (i.e., don’t pull the plug out of the OUTPUT A jack). The recorded data might be lost if you do so.

Basic Operation

To perform recording, overdubbing, and playback, press the pedal as shown in the diagram.

MEMO

• If a footswitch is connected to the STOP/UNDO jack, you can stop by pressing the footswitch just once.
• The recorded phrase is saved even if you turn off the power.

NOTE

• The minimum recording time for a loop phrase is approximately 0.25 seconds. If you press the pedal within approximately 0.25 seconds after you start recording, the recording will continue until the phrase is at least approximately 0.25 seconds long.
• The maximum recording time for a loop phrase is approximately 12 minutes (stereo). If you exceed the maximum recording time, recording or overdubbing is interrupted, and operation changes to loop playback.
•  Roland assumes no liability concerning the restoration of any stored content that has been lost.

Switching patches without interrupting the sound

The GT-1000 is equipped with a new type of high-speed patch switching system, allowing you to switch patches with minimal interruption of the sound. The fastest possible switching is automatically performed for each patch, and switching without interrupting the sound is also possible.

Tips for preventing interruptions in the sound

To prevent interruptions in the sound, observe the following points when you create the patches that are used before and after the switch.
• Avoid changing the position of blocks within the chain.
• Use multiple blocks when placing the effects (don’t change the TYPE within the same block).
• Use parallel positioning, and switch the channel.

Example:
Switching from a clean sound that uses chorus and deep delay, to a crunch sound that uses phaser and shallow delay.

The same chain is used for both patches, both before and after switching. The settings of the effect used before switching are placed in parallel with the settings used after switching.

Using STOMPBOX

Your preferred settings for each effect can be saved as a “STOMPBOX.” You can select these saved settings and use them to create your sound just as though you were connecting compact pedal effects. The STOMPBOX data is common to all patches; this means that all patches using the same STOMPBOX can be edited simultaneously.

1. Press the [EFFECT] button.
2. Use the [6] knob to choose the effect you’re going to edit.
3. Use the PAGE [] [] buttons to move to the last page.

USING THE UNIT SAFELY

Concerning the Auto Off function

The power to this unit will be turned off automatically after a predetermined amount of time has passed since it was last used for playing music, or its buttons or controls were operated (Auto Off function). If you do not want the power to be turned off automatically, disengage the Auto Off function (p. 9).

Use only the supplied AC adaptor and the correct voltage

Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation matches the input voltage specified on the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may use a different polarity, or be designed for a different voltage, so their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

Use only the supplied power cord

Use only the attached power cord. Also, the supplied power cord must not be used with any other device.

CAUTION

Take care so as not to get fingers pinched

When handling the following moving parts, take care so as not to get fingers, toes, etc., pinched. Whenever a child uses the unit, an adult should be on hand to provide supervision and guidance.

BOSS Wireless System Owner's Manual

Before using this unit, carefully read “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (the leaflet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY”). After reading, keep the document(s) where it will be available for immediate reference.

Stable wireless communication with no dropouts (Auto Wireless Connection)
Simply connect the transmitter with the receiver; the receiver scans the local state of the wireless spectrum and automatically chooses the optimal channel.

Switches to standby mode when silence continues
When one hour passes without you playing your guitar (musical instrument), the transmitter enters standby mode and ends the connection with the receiver. When one hour passes after the connection with the transmitter has ended, the receiver enters standby mode.

Charging Both the Receiver (WL-20 / WL-20L) and Transmitter (WL-T)

1. Connect the included USB cable and a commercially available USB AC adaptor (5 V/0.5 A or higher) to the receiver’s DC IN 5 V port.

2. Insert the transmitter into the TRANSMITTER jack so that the transmitter also charges.

NOTE
Insert only the BOSS WL-T transmitter into the TRANSMITTER jack.
If you connect headphones, high-volume sound might be emitted, or the headphones might be damaged.

Charging only the transmitter

Connect the included USB cable and a commercially available USB AC adaptor (5 V/0.5 A or higher) to the DC IN 5 V port.
* When charging from the DC IN 5 V port, the wireless connection does not operate.

Other parts and their function

Making Wireless Settings (Auto Wireless Connection)

* Execute the following operation before you play your guitar (musical instrument). In particular when you’re playing live or in a session, the wireless conditions might change between the rehearsal and the actual event, so you should execute the following operation once again before the actual event.

1. Insert the transmitter into the TRANSMITTER jack.

For stable wireless communication

If audio dropouts occur, it might be that the local state of the wireless spectrum has changed. Execute the Auto Wireless Connection operation once again.

Since the WL-20 / WL-20L uses a 2.4 GHz wireless system, we recommend that you place the receiver at least three meters away from a Wi-Fi router or other wireless device.

Using a microwave oven might also cause audio dropouts due to wireless interference.

Using multiple wireless systems together
To prevent confusion between the wireless systems, perform the following steps.

1. Power-off the BOSS wireless systems.
2. Power-on any wireless systems not made by BOSS, and set them up so that there are no problems with their sound.
   First wireless system unit made by BOSS
3. Insert the transmitter into the receiver’s TRANSMITTER jack and execute the Auto Wireless Connection procedure.
4. Plug the transmitter into your guitar (musical instrument), making the BATTERY indicator light.
   Second and subsequent wireless system units made by BOSS
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4.

Performing

When you plug the transmitter into your guitar (musical instrument) and plug the receiver into your amp or effect unit, the transmitter and receiver power-on automatically.

* To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.

Switches to standby mode when silence continues

• When one hour passes without you playing your guitar (musical instrument), the transmitter enters standby mode and ends the connection with the receiver. The BATTERY indicator blinks green.
• When one hour passes after the connection with the transmitter has ended, the receiver enters standby mode. The POWER indicator blinks green.

Note when returning from standby mode

• When you raise the volume of your guitar (musical instrument) and play it, the transmitter returns from standby mode in approximately two seconds.
• The receiver must be disconnected and reconnected.

When not using the system for an extended time

Unplug the transmitter and receiver. Standby mode does consume battery power, although only very slightly.

Turning the Power Off

1. Minimize the volume of your guitar (musical instrument) and of output devices such as the amp, and then turn off the power.
2. Unplug the transmitter from the guitar (musical instrument).
3. Unplug the receiver.
