Hi Buzap!

Great advice, thank you very much. I've only been using the RC-50 for about 6 months so really appreciate any hints and tips :) I agree with what you mentioned about the drum loop - definitely will be trying that out soon! The reason there is a huge disparity between the live mic/loop volumes is that the sound on the video is on camera only (i.e. not picking up the PA in the hall at audience level) ... we have a Pro Tools multi-track of the whole performance which we'll be syncing up some day!

I'm really interested in what you mentioned re foot switches - I have a similar problem when I want to activate my vocoder bypass and have just bought a switch for that, so I'll try it out on the RC-50 and see if it works :)

Thanks so much for your helpful feedback!

HI Kayla

listened to your performance, really nice playing.

Some hints on the RC-50 usage:
- Imo, the performance would be even better without the built-in rhythm. You can load a nice drum loop beforehand via USB.
- The volume seems to fall quite drastically when switching from live mic to loop.
- Instead of running back and forth to RC-50 for switching things, you could do the following: Connect up to 4 foot switches with long cables. You can assign the same command to 2 different pedals. This way, you could control the same functions from different locations.

Watched anothter video, nice singing voice, btw :)

Best regards
Buzap
