Recently, a satisfied customer wrote: "I purchased my first WX5 and VL70-m from [major online dealer] and I ended up taking it back because I was frustrated with the results I was getting and couldn't get any 'real' help from them in that department. A year later I talked with Matt at Patchman and he guided me in the right direction, set me up with the right tools and I am a happy camper. Sometimes I sound like I am on commission as a salesman for him, but that sure isn't the case. I just feel very strongly about the help I received then and now. An old saying goes 'Dance with the one that you brought you to the dance'."

    Boss Loop Station RC-50

    For those awaiting the arrival of the ultimate looper, the wait is finally over. Introducing the RC-50 the most feature-laden Loop Station BOSS has ever built. Housed in a spacious 7-footswitch floor unit, the RC-50 lets you manipulate three stereo phrase tracks simultaneously. Each track supports multiple overdubs, so phrases can be stacked one by one on each track, resulting in a monstrous layer of looped phrases. Now you too can build those massive one-man-band type layers that Michael Brecker has made famous in his live EWI performances! The new Boss RC50 will add depth and excitement to your performances by allowing you to layer phrases in realtime- as many stacks as you like until you fill up the 49 minutes of recording space! Explore the expressive options of sound-on-sound performance by layering your own phrases to create a massive "one-person band" experience. Build the ultimate solo, and do it all live in realtime. Click here to watch Jeff Kashiwa playing solo with an Akai EWI4000s and a Boss Loop Station.

    • The new industry-leading looping tool for live performance!
    • 7 footswitches for intuitive control; realtime control of playback speed
    • Play up to 3 stereo phrase tracks simultaneously, all synced to an internal or MIDI clock

    In Sync

    The RC-50 speaks sync. For bands that incorporate digital audio tracks, sequences, drum machines, and/or video elements into their live gigs, sync is not a luxury- it's a necessity. For scenarios such as these, the RC-50 can be locked to an external MIDI clock source, ensuring that its loop performances are locked to the rest of the show. Internally, the RC-50 offers Loop Quantize for easy loop recording, plus Loop Sync (which enables all phrases to start in sync), and Tempo Sync (which matches the tempo of multiple phrases during playback).

    Rhythm Guide

    To make recording as fun and inspiring as possible, the RC-50 provides a total of 379 play-along Rhythm Guide Patterns using real sampled drums in a wide variety of time signatures. Why record to a stale click track when you can jam with rockin' grooves instead?

    Boss GT-8 Patchman
    Click image for larger view

    Boss GT-8 Guitar Multi-Effects Processor

    Wind controller players are going to love this box! Double your power with BOSS's new GT-8 floor-based mega processor. Loaded with twin COSM® modeling engines, it brings unprecedented performance and tonal control to the stage and studio. The Dual COSM amp section provides two discrete amp channels; you can layer and manipulate each engine independently to create wildly expressive sounds. Thanks to the Solo Switch function, lead sounds can be immediately activated - perfect for ripping through the mix. Though this box was designed for guitarists, it is an amazing effects box with tons of highly useful effects for the wind controller player. This unit does intelligent harmonizing- tell it what key you are in and it will produce 1 or 2 additional voices that stay in key. Great for the solo wind controller player! We also like the Intelligent Ring Modulator for serious timbral manipulations, and sustain effect that freezes whatever sound is coming in. It then allows you to play over the sustained sound complete with effects. The bend effect is great as well. You can assign a pitchbend amount to the footpedal and detune or radically pitch shift your synth's sound.

    • The GT-8 is BOSS's most powerful floor-based processor!
    • User configurable effect chain; any effect can be put in any position in the signal path
    • Independent external effects loop section for inserting external effects anywhere in the signal patch
    • 44 effects types including synth waves, sitar, and acoustic sounds
    • Up to 13 effects simultaneously

    • Solo switch on the COSM amp section for instant lead tone
    • Layering/blending/panning of two amp models
    • Dynamic sensing mode for channel switching and control of effect parameters by varying pick attack
    • 15 REAL knobs plus Jog Wheel for quick and easy editing
    • 26 finger buttons
    • 7 foot buttons
    • Expression pedal built in + External expression pedal input
    • Amp Control jack for switching external guitar amp channels
    • 24-bit converters and coaxial digital output for high-resolution recording applications
