Are your above comments based on early or latest firmware?
My understanding from other threads in here is that Roland/Boss a kinda 
slow to implement features, but also that they did do a few things.


One more thing:  Do you happen to know how the RC-50 is layed out 
internally, meaning if the has one large circuit board, or a separate 
board for the processing, with the buttons arranged on their own?
If possible, I'd be very happy for a pic or a link to an inside pic.
Reason: I'd be interested in mounting the processing part in a smaller 
box, and operate it through MIDI, if possible.
