I manged to get someting happening on the RC-50 that I liked, but nothing so special that I wanted to own it... and I have owned almost every hardware looper out there! Roland / Boss have always aimed for the lowest common denominator in their products. I would guess that a survey of owners would show that 90% of the RC-20 / RC-50s contain a 12 bar blues at one point or another! I sold my baby, the Jamman, to the talented Tom Heasley. at the moment I have only my EH 16 second delay, the Repeater and a 2880. Of these three the 2880 sounds the best, by far. >I couldn't switch that off either. That's the big turn-off with the >RC50 for me.
