BOSS RC-600 Loop Station - Flagship 6-Track Floor Looper with Onboard Effects

The BOSS RC-600 Loop Station is the most advanced floor-based looper BOSS has ever built, delivering six simultaneous stereo tracks with premium 32-bit AD/DA and 32-bit floating-point processing for crystal-clear audio quality at every layer. Designed for guitarists, singer/songwriters, and multi-instrumentalists who demand total creative control, the RC-600 handles everything from intimate solo performances to complex live production setups.

Musicians searching for the best floor loop station for live performance will find the RC-600 in a class of its own. Nine freely assignable footswitches with three pedal modes give performers the flexibility to trigger different functions — track operations, effects, rhythm control, tap tempo — with a press, hold, or double-click. The RC-600 replaces the RC-300 with a dramatically expanded feature set, making it the go-to upgrade for serious looping artists who have outgrown simpler solutions.

The RC-600 integrates seamlessly with the broader BOSS ecosystem via BOSS Tone Studio software (Windows/macOS), enabling WAV loop import/export, custom SMF rhythm import through the dedicated RC Rhythm Converter, and full USB audio interface functionality. Deep MIDI control support and two external control jacks — each accommodating dual footswitches or an expression pedal — make the RC-600 equally at home in complex pedalboard rigs and professional stage setups where real-time loop sync and MIDI-driven automation are essential.
