    That's VERY interesting. Both because the RC-20, RC-50, and even my Digitech Jamman are all SO clean and because the technology is old now. At least 10 years. Hmmm.

    I get a thrill out of manipulating the "lesser", simpler pedals and making more "real song" sounding loops than most people do with the RC-50.

    Boss introduced the RC-3x series in March 2011, (3 months after I received my RC20XL). At first I was a little bit frustrated, but then I read some people complaining about the sound of the new devices (hisses, clicking noises etc.). And, OTOH, RC20 is just good enough for me.

    Good to hear that Boss stepped up their game with the RC-30. I ran a 1st Gen RC-20 (not the XL) for years. I actually still use it as my dedicated drum looper. It's been extremely trouble free. As in one plastic button failed. I replaced it easily. But it did not have a USB interface. It did store everything and did not lose anything unless you delete it. I always saved loops by simply recording onto my computer. I also have a digitech jam man. I have toured with both. The jamman has a memory card and plenty of loop time. Both of these are made of sturdy metal. I did have a problem with my first jam man. The stop button stopped being dependable. I picked up a used one for $150. It's been solid for years. It has a usb interface. You can upload your loops to the computer. You can build loops or even whole songs and put them onto the jam man. I never use that function as I like everything to be live and on the fly. But it is there. I haven't tried the RC-30 but I would bet it's sturdy like the RC-20 and better with the interface. THe big daddy in my mind is the RC-50. It is like 3 RC-20's synched.

    BOSS RC20 XL, (or RC30, it's newer, has bigger loop memory and USB interface). If you want to do a bit more than constructing your loops "live" you'd have to spend some money for RC50/RC300 (easier selection of recorded loops etc.)
