Boss RC-10R - Inspiration For the Tempo of Your Performance!

The RC-10R combines song-based looping with organic rhythms in a compact unit and delivers fresh inspiration for your live performances, songwriting sessions and daily practice. With this next-generation loop station you can create music and grooves spontaneously and in real time.

The RC-10R supports you with two song parts, intros and outros, and a wide range of groove fills. The knobs and the loop display on the control surface give you full control and visibility. You can also expand the RC-10R with external switchers and MIDI controllers as needed to make your performance even more flexible.
The extensive rhythm library covers virtually every musical genre. Or you can import your own rhythms to tailor the RC-10R to specific songs and styles to suit your individual needs.

Next-Generation Loop Station for Modern Performers
The famous loop stations from BOSS rank among the leading loopers worldwide and offer a broad range of models to boost the creativity of different types of musicians.
With the RC-10R we present a new kind of loop station inspired by renowned performers who blend song-based looping with percussive rhythms.

The RC-10R was designed to create music in the moment and gives guitarists and singer/songwriters a unique, virtually limitless instrument for developing ideas as well as for dynamic, irresistible live performances.

A Song-Based Looper and a Drum Machine in One Unit
The RC-10R combines loops and rhythms in an interactive way like never before. Unlike the rather rudimentary guide rhythms of other loop stations, the RC-10R's rhythms are based on complete song structures with distinct parts.

The 2-track loop engine is perfectly synchronized with the rhythms. This allows you to record independent song sections with their own rhythm backings. Two variations make transitions between sections more lively, while your songs naturally start and end with the intro and outro fills.

High-Quality Rhythm Sounds and Organic Grooves
The RC-10R is ready for any musical style—from rock and pop to Latin and jazz to electro and beyond. With more than 280 built-in rhythm styles including organic grooves, you’ll easily find the right backing for your music.

If you still can’t find the right groove, you can use the Mac/Windows software developed specifically for the RC-10R to transfer your own rhythms in SMF format and store them in one of the 50 user memory slots. Whatever style you choose, you can quickly change the tonal character of each groove via the 16 kits—from heavy rock to light percussion.

Adapts to Your Creativity
The loop and rhythm engines of the RC-10R work seamlessly together, but you can also use them independently. This lets you create two separate loops without any rhythm backing and build complex song performances with rich ambient soundscapes. You can also use the RC-10R as a drum machine and control song sections and fills in real time with your feet alone—the ideal support on stage, in jam sessions, and during practice.

More Options for Power Users
With its interactive displays and multifunction controls, the RC-10R is a standalone powerhouse. For users who want even more control, the RC-10R provides a jack that lets you connect up to two footswitches or an expression pedal to operate functions like Start/Stop, Undo/Redo, loop volume and more.

Deeper control options are provided by the MIDI In/Out, implemented via space-saving TRS mini-jack connectors, which—when used with external MIDI controllers—offer direct access to countless functions and sync options.

Loop Engine With State-of-the-Art Sound
BOSS loop stations are known for their outstanding sound quality. The RC-10R represents the current pinnacle of that development. The loop recording engine runs with 32-bit AD/DA conversion and 32-bit floating-point processing and holds its own against top studio equipment. As with any loop station, the dry signal can also be processed completely analog to preserve the original tone 100 percent.

Perfect Sound for Any Setup
Electric guitars and grooves need to be amplified and shaped differently. While guitarists typically rely on their amp to find the desired tone, rhythm machines require a transparent full-range playback system to reproduce all nuances.

The RC-10R lets you route the looper and rhythms via independent outputs to separate amplification systems. If you don’t have two amps available or prefer a simpler setup, the RC-10R uses a small but clever trick.

This lets you process the guitar and/or rhythm sound through a variety of tone filters and balance them for combined amplification through a single system—whether that’s a guitar amp, a PA system, or your studio monitors.
