Boss RC-3 Loop Station is the perfect practice and performance tool for the adventurous guitarist, giving you three hours of stereo looping. Saving your loops in 99 memory locations, you can recall your creations at once. And you’ll appreciate the RC-3 pedal’s true stereo I/O, so you can incorporate stereo instruments and devices (there’s an 1/8″ MP3 player input!). There are even built-in drum patterns to help guide your way to perfect looping. Connecting your RC-3 to your computer via USB 2.0 saves all of your loops externally.
