Boss RC-600 Guitar Effect

Boss RC-600 Loop Station — Flagship Six-Track Looper

The Boss RC-600 is a flagship floor-based Loop Station for live loopers, multi-instrumentalists, and singer-songwriters who want six stereo phrase tracks and deep routing in one pedalboard unit. Clean, layered sound is delivered by the 32-bit AD/DA and floating-point engine. Studio-grade audio and full MIDI integration make this model the right choice for demanding performers.

What Sets the RC-600 Apart

Unlike simpler two-track loopers, this model pairs a 32-bit floating-point engine with 49 Input FX, 53 Track FX, and 2 Master FX types, letting up to four effects run simultaneously. DJ-style Track FX such as Beat Scatter and Vinyl Flick join guitar-to-bass simulation, vocal processing, and nine virtual amp models.

Audio Engine and Recording Capacity

Operating at 44.1 kHz with 32-bit AD/DA conversion and 32-bit floating-point processing, the audio engine supports up to 1.5 hours on a single track, or roughly 13 hours total in 99 memory slots.

• Sampling Frequency: 44.1 kHz with 32-bit AD/DA and floating-point processing — clean, artifact-free layering across six tracks
• The RC-600's recording time enables full song-length arrangements, offering approx. 1.5 h per track / 13 h total across 99 memory slots.

Inputs, Outputs, and External Control

Two XLR mic inputs with 48 V phantom power are suitable for both condenser and dynamic microphones. Two stereo 6.3 mm instrument/line pairs accept guitar, bass, keyboards, and drum machines. Synchronize with external gear using MIDI IN and OUT, and route signals to amps, PA, or headphones with three assignable stereo output pairs plus a dedicated headphone jack.

• Mic Inputs: 2× XLR with phantom power — record vocals and acoustic sources with studio-grade preamps
• Enjoy flexible signal routing with 3× stereo 6.3 mm pairs + 6.3 mm headphone jack + MIDI OUT for amps, PA, and monitor mixes
• External Control: 2× CTL/EXP TRS jacks — add footswitches or expression pedals for expanded hands-free control
