There are lots of inputs and outputs going on here. I plug the guitar into the single jack in front. Then I take it I put the A line into the input of the rc-20 and than plug into the amp through the rc-20 ouput. What about the B-line? This must go into the amp also? I only have one input on my amp. Thanks to everyone for being so helpful. These are totally new ideas to me. >From: "lol c" <testtubemicro@hotmail.com> >Reply-To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com >To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com >Subject: RE: new to looping, have question about rc-20 >Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2003 02:27:13 +0000 > >Hi there Andy > >This is Phill Wilson, Im from the UK, > I can totally empathise with your situation , it wasnt much more then a >year ago that I first bought an RC20 as my beginnings of a loop rig. > Isnt it just the way, that as soon as you get a new piece of kit, you >find you want ot do something just a little bit more then what you can >easily do with it, trust me , as a brand new EDP user I can say it never >seems to let up. > >I have however , thought up a pretty cost effective work around for you. >if you bought an A/B box and placed it before your RC-20 with the single >jack connected to your guitar.
