Boss RC-300: How to best route your audio output
Ойын-сауық
In this video I'll show you how to route your Boss RC-300 audio so each track will have it's own independent audio output jack. This will make live mixing or recording that much better.

Huge!! I couldn't figure out how to stop it from sending the feed back out. THanks!!
Juts stumbed across your video, I've been using the RC-300 for years now live - carefully mixing the volume of every instrument every time for every gig and unless it's perfect it can sound like such a mess when it's all combined! Been searching for this answer for so long without having to get a mixer with an FX send and return so this is absolutely brilliant! Thankyou so much for taking the time to share this, I myself and it looks like many others are very appreciative! ☺

Booyah!!! So glad you found it helpful!!
I setup the RC-300 to do the same for drum practice with each track going to individual amplifiers. The challenge sometimes is to maintain timing. The RC-300 transmits MIDI clock data at all times. I configured an Arduino to receive the MIDI data and control a strip of LEDs to flash the 1/4 notes so that a visual "click" is provided when the start is activated.

OMG!!!! I got a new Bose L1 Pro 8 sound system and am wanting to use my RC 300 with it. When I hooked it up on Friday at a local venue, the sound was completely muffled and I couldn't hear anything hardly at all. It threw me off completely for the whole night. So I've been googling what do to and how to fix it. I came across this video and didn't think it was the solution, but I thought... can't hurt. IT TOTALLY FIXED THE PROBLEM!!!! now all my loops are clear and crisp and I can eq and set the levels individually!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! (yes, I'm yelling with joy and gratefulness). I was so sad that I couldn't use the looper with the bose. I thought it was a setting on the speaker, but nope... the problem was having all 3 tracks going through the same output. This makes me so happy!!! I can actually use the looper now!!! I'm not great at it yet, but I have a small setlist that I can use it on. So excited!!! Thank you again... and many more times!!!

Great explanation indeed! Apparently sometimes it won't work but then it's because the system output settings of the tracks are set to main/sub and this overrules the local track settings. In the system settings it should be set to "memory" (go to these settings by pressing the system button and scrolling to the pages for tracks 1, 2 and 3).

Mic - XLR (voc/percussion) Left input - Guitar (octave/ distortion) Aux - Ipad (keyboard/drums) Main out goes to me (my speaker, 12 inch QSC) so i have volume control over feed back from the mic ). I tell them, no monitors (just me) SUB out to FOH - in which can turn up or down ......... Hear me out here.. unless you have the BEST sound guy ever in the end it's all up to you right?

Also, is there a way to also assign the right of the main output to the built in drums of the rc300? So if I’m using say for ex- “Simple Beat 2” it too can have its own separate out? Thanks Man. Great info!!
I have been struggling with these things too. Maybe you don't have to pan the last one though since it's just coming out sub? Also why mute the input? Is it so you don't get different sounds when it starts looping? Isn't that weird when you play your parts? And can you not hear your signal when just playing along. I'm heartened and I feel I have learned something here but I'm missing some of the prices in my head
Marc, that's a smart way, thank you! One question: is it essential to mute the input? I mean, wouldn't it be possible to route the input to main R, so to have it also on an individual channel?

Good question, I meant to explain that at the end of the video but forgot! The way the RC300 is set up, you can't route your live guitar output signal through just one output jack, like I route the looped tracks. The live guitar output comes out stereo. That means you'd have a live output AND one of the loop tracks coming out of the same jack. My personal solution is that I split my live output from my effects before running it to the RC300. One signal goes to my RC300 and another one to the PA or mixer. It's a good question you're asking. Did my answer make sense?

I can’t wait to adjust my settings and route my guitar/vocals and inputs. I do have one question though. I’m going to be looping my rhythm guitar over a violin audio track from my iPad should I route them to the same output ? I was thinking I should route my vocals and effects to a separate PA and my guitar parts to my boss amp but what I’m seeing a lot of guitarists do is they use stereo speakers and no just to a mono amp for the guitar parts. Maybe I should rethink my method and mess around a bit before playing it live

So can you have two different outputs of speakers running at the same time? Like a guitar amp and a pa speaker for the mic?

Absolutely. And you can even select which track will go to which speaker system.

@@MarcAllredVideos Ok cool thanks. Also why did you mute the input out in the beginning? I know you explained in the video, but I don't get it? Sorry for the bombardment of questions. I am new to this stuff and I was thinking about getting an rc300 for fun as a hobby. I have an electric guitar. I was planning on getting a cajon for percussions and loop it with a mic. I can't sing so I was gonna do vocal melodies with guitar. For example, track one would be looped coming out of my guitar amp; track 2 would be looping the stomp box coming out of a pa, and track 3 would be either a guitar or percussion. Would all that be possible? I appreciate the help btw.

Yes please!
I have a question. How can you hear your live signal? You muted the signal at the beginning but you need to hear it as well. Or am I wrong? Thanks

Boss RC300 - How to Best Route Live Signal #shorts kzread.infoPz_Pmmg5KMY?feature=share
Hello. Can you help? I’ve followed your instructions exactly but when I plug into my RCF jmix8 I only get a signal from the main output. Nothing from the sub outputs.

Without seeing your gear and settings I can only guess. I would double check how you've set up the rc300 output settings to the subs first and then check your jmix settings (gain, volume, etc). I'd be down to video call and see if I can help trouble shoot it.
Marc, I have an RC-30 - when I back it up to my computer and attempt to use the wav files in my daw, the levels of the loop recordings are too low. Is there any way to change the output level when exporting files?

That's a next level question right there! I've never messed with that before, but my best guess would me to boost the input source of your instrument that you're looping (guitar or keyboard or whatever) or boost the master or instrument level on the rc300 itself. Good luck!
do you know how to hear a audio input but not record that ? i have a drum machine e want to hear the beat but not record (i dont have a mixer yet and i have pluged my phones on the rc300 only, thanks!

It has to not run through the loop station. Whatever you have coming into the station will be looped. So you’d have to have the drum machine playing through your PA or DAW or something else.
