Capture Your Ideas in Superior Sound

Featuring best-in-class 32-bit AD/DA and 32-bit floating-point processing, the RC-5 captures your personal sound with full fidelity and keeps loops crystal clear, even with multiple overdubs. With 13 hours of stereo recording time, there’s plenty of space for extended creative journeys.

Perform and Practice With Inspiring Rhythms

With 57 preset rhythms and seven different drum kits, the RC-5 is ready to elevate loop and practice sessions with inspiring grooves for any style. For each rhythm, A/B variations are available via external control to bring energy and interest to performances. The RC-5’s looper engine also includes a cool reverse function that’s great for infusing your music with fresh sonic colors.

Take Control of Your Loops

The RC-5 provides an easy to navigate interface to keep an eye on loop status as you perform, with a backlight that changes color to indicate recording, overdub and playback states. Coupled with the multi-function parameter knob, it’s quick and easy to navigate rhythms, kits, system settings and more in the heat of the moment. The RC-5’s versatile pedal switch controls all looping functions—record, overdub, play, stop and undo/redo. Connect up to two external footswitches for direct control of many assignable functions, or an expression pedal for continuous adjustments.

Store and Share Your Musical Ideas

The RC-5 provides 99 phrase memories, letting you store loops as fast as you create them. In addition to audio, a phrase memory includes the selected rhythm and kit, so it’s ready to go when you call it up. Loop audio can be backed up to a computer via USB. And with WAV import via BOSS Tone Studio, the RC-5 becomes a pedalboard playback hub for lesson material, jam tracks or backing music for your next gig.
