Authentic Loop Station in a StompBox!

Austin, TX, July 14, 2006— BOSS is proud to announce the new RC-2 Loop Station. No company creates loop stations quite like BOSS. Already in heavy demand around the world are the medium-sized RC-20XL and the deluxe, extra wide RC-50. Now comes an ultra compact member of the RC family, the RC-2. Housed in a compact-pedal case, the RC-2 puts a surprising amount of features in a small stompbox.

With up to 16 minutes of record time and eleven internal patch preset locations for your layers of loop creations, the RC-2 is the perfect compact solution for recording, looping and storing.

In addition to looping, the RC-2 also provides a wealth of other handy and powerful features suck as jam-along Rhythm Guide, Auto Start, Tap Tempo, Loop Quantize, and Undo/Redo.

In traditional BOSS fashion, theRC-2 benefits from a clean and friendly user interface. As powerful as this little Loop Station is, it's simple to operate. Like all BOSS compact pedals, clearly labeled buttons and knobs put everything directly under your fingertips and toes.

Thousands of guitarists rely on BOSS' ultra convenient BCB-series pedalboards for organizing their effects pedals. Due to its standard compact-pedal shape and size, the new BOSS RC-2 fits perfectly alongside other BOSS pedals in your rig.
