Emily you are quite a talent! I enjoyed watching you construct this loop and the “on the fly” song performance. This isn’t easy, and you made it look effortless. Good job!
That really means a lot! I don’t think it looked as effortless when I was first learning lol, but video is the best teacher ha ha
Hey Em, I’ve never heard this song, so I searched CZcams looking for the original. After listening to it, I actually like your version better, it sounds cleaner with all the harmony parts. You sing, produce, arrange and play all the parts. I feel like I am watching the female version of Prince, only much easier on the eyes. You’re a gifted and talented musician, love ❤️ your music! Thanks for sharing it!
Holy smokes that is high praise! Love this song. And Lorde. She’s got some great works!
I gotta admit, that was incredible to see come to life. And you have such an energetic smile and aura. Great talent and such technical coordination to pull all of that together and yet still be able to make a video. 🙌🏻
Aww thank you friend! I really appreciate that. Trying to share what I can!
@@EmilyMcVicker Thanks for the vid emily.I have the 1st 505 rc looper ,i have a slight problem with my 4th and 5th looper pad as they are both linked sound wise so when you turn either the 4 or 5th fader it turns both track s up at once .Is there a way to get the tracks back like the rest of them?
You Are a True Musical Badass, I have been speculating for a long time on buying this unit, i have watched dovydos alot and others that use it and the first few videos i watched of you were just great. You make it seem easy and your natural talent is off the charts. I have been a musician for 30 years and i rather do originals than anything because around here bands are just a (well another band) and I really enjoy recording alone but this seems so much easier than using all the stuff im using just to make samples or full songs. I have tried other loopers before and they just dont seem to do what i want or they dont sync well. I would love to setup out back and perform alone for some outdoor pool parties we have and thank you for your videos, i have subscribed and will continue watching so keep doing you because you are a badass!!!!
Holy smokes! This is such a sweet comment. Thank you for writing it! Glad to have you part of the team on here :-) keep in touch if there’s anything you’d like to see in particular!
Completely new to loop stations. Have just bought this model for my young boy. Would love for you to do some tutorials starting with basics. Having trouble finding videos that are helpful for complete newbies. You have a beautiful voice btw! Finding watching you build up tracks in all your videos fascinating !
Thank you that is sweet of you to say! That’s a great idea. Lemme think of how I will show this. What kind of music does your son want to do with it? Does he play instruments?
He is only 7 🙂 he has perfect pitch. Can harmonise with himself, plays piano (improvises) and drums. Great sense of rhythm. He opened his gift today and loves it. . We bought him a mic. Need now to work out how to connect his keyboard to the rc505 mk2.
Yes we re having the same issue with connecting the RC505 to MainStage so a MIDI keyboard works, I know it’s in vendor mode and to set up a aggregate in MIDI, but it’s how to set the settings in MainStage, been going round and round, can’t get it to work .. by the way we love your channel, my wife has been doing royals after being inspired by you .. she too is loving what Santa brought her @@VictoriaMacklin
Clicked for the tutorial, stayed for the performance. Your voice is just lovely.
Aww man thanks so much. That’s very sweet to hear 🥰
keep doing this stuff McVickers. Its great.
Thank you! I will haha
Simply outstanding!
Glad you like it! I appreciate it 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Ridiculously good. Wow! Great tutorial on the 505 as well. You are great!!!
Woohoo! Yay thanks friend 😆
That was spectacular. It was a great intro to the RC-505 and then a lovely jam. Looking forward to more! Just subbed.
Aww thanks man! Appreciate ya!!
I share your love for the 505. Ive been in a deep dive for two years. You do a great job in your video production. Swami Tommy
Much appreciated! It’s a great machine! I have a lot more experience using the floor Looper, but it is fun to experiment with what the 505 gives better access to - like the effects!
Perfectly sung to the beat and the vocal dynamics are awesome. I am getting inspired to do looping by watching your videos. Thanks for the inspiration.
Oh awesome! Glad to hear it friend!
Love watching these videos. Trying to get inspiration and knowledge on how to do this with my own tracks. Sounds great!
Great to hear! I’m so glad! I hope it’s going well for you! 🫶🫶🫶
Greetings from NZ. Awesome arrangement and singing Emily! Love it and love your enthusiasm and hi energy. I’ve been sceptical about the Mark 2. But this is cool!! You make it very tempting. ❤
Hey Ramon! You’re too kind 🥰 I’ve heard conflicting reviews. But I think they are starting to iron out the firmware to be usable for everyone. If you get it, okay with it a lot so you know if it’s the right fit for you!
You’re such a fun teacher! I feel like I got a lot of good inspiration from this video. Thank you 😊
That’s awesome! So glad to hear it my friend 🤘😆❤️
Great sounds and great live performance. Divine🤗
Aww thanks friend 🥰🥰🥰
This was awesome! Looking into the RC-505 to get into instrumental looping and such, and this was a great video demonstrating what a powerful tool this can be.
Oh good! Yes it can definitely do a lot. Very versatile for different skill combinations 👍
Love it! I'm new on the 505 and I learned a lot thank you!!
Oh excellent! Thanks for writing!
This was awesome to watch! I am an audio technology student in college rn and I am looking to start making my own loops and eventually videos! I loved how this was both educational and entertaining, I have been saving up for the Boss 505 and maybe for christmas I will get some extra help 😎 cheers!
Oh wow! So lovely to connect with you on this exciting journey :) keep in touch my friend!
Thank you for these videos!
So glad you like! I’m thinking of what song I want to do next :)
You are very good both at what you do and explaining. Thanks.
You’re very kind to say it ❤️ more coming soon!
Thank you! I just got my mk2 and am learning how to use it for my Twitch streams. I have SO MUCH to learn, but you gave lots of great tips plus your voice is gorgeous. Nicely done!
Aww shucks thanks you Jeremy! You’re very sweet. Nice to meet ya ❤️
Wow you can use it for twitch streams? Wonder if I can use it livestream or viritually!!
Great video and review of the MK2!! I love this and the 600. A few of my favorite 505 users are Matej, Dovydas, Marc Rebillet, and now, you!!!
Oh snap! What a compliment! I have seen Mark, but I’m gonna check out those other folks! Thanks!!!
Great video! 😁 Thanks Emily
Oh nice! Glad you dig this one Paul!
You're amazing, I love watching your videos and listening to your voice❤️❤️❤️
Aww thanks friend 🫶🤗 I am so glad you’re enjoying them ❤️
Very inspiring video, thank you! 🎶
Aww thanks Thomas! Glad you liked!
Really great educational video. By the way your beatbox is epic!
Oh snap thanks Oliver ☺️☺️☺️
Wow… you’re such an amazing inspiration as a CZcams creator and loop master… um life goals: creatively loop like Emily‼️
Aww Thom you are too sweet to me 🥰🥰🥰
Excellent video! I have one - this was very helpful!
Oh excellent! It’s a great machine!
Always great when I can catch your twitch streams, thanks for this great breakdown on your use of the 505. I want to start looping amongst my diff instruments (guitar, bass, trumpet, tin whistle), so was looking at both the 505 and 600.
Oh nice! What one are you leaning towards?
@@EmilyMcVicker I am leaning towards the RC600 right now to go with all my other guitar pedals. I could always add a midi controller if I want some desktop controls.
@@joecraftedReally great idea. I never thought of that.
This is super helpful and rad, thank you!
Oh amazing! What part is the most helpful? I’m trying to brainstorm some more videos with the 505 that might be useful to folks. If you have any questions or ideas, lemme know!
@@EmilyMcVicker Wicked! I really loved how you mapped out, prior to the performance, what your structure was going to be for each track. I’ve been researching loop pedals and stations for exactly one day so I have very limited knowledge, but you solidified for me that this is the station I want.
I’d love to know everything haha but I do have a few specific questions/requests.
1. I’m familiar with the 505’s ability to quantise, keeping bars/measures tight, which I love. Is it able to quantise notes/beats how recording software can? Like if I was beatboxing but got one beat slightly off, could it automatically fix that for the playback?
2. Could you please record a performance with split camera so I can both see what you’re doing with your instruments as well as a first-person view of the loop station? I’d love to analyse the buttons you’re pressing, levers you’re turning etc. in real time. I did see your “Killing Me Softly” video just now - incredible - which was great with the little circles around the buttons when you pressed them. Bird’s eye view would be helpful too, I think.
3. If I’m sending my mic through a vocoder (or any other effect machine), how does that work in connecting it to the 505? Do I plug the mic into the 505 first then send the output through the vocoder or the other way around?
Thanks so much for inspiring me to buy this product and get practicing! I can’t wait to try it out!
The original 505 is the best bit of kit I’ve ever bought
Oh! Do you have the original or the mk2?
I have the mkII 😊
@@EmilyMcVicker the original, bar the reverb being very weak, it was almost perfect
Mk2 for the win!!! Both amazing, but mk2 was a major upgrade
If you’re using the mk1: do it. Upgrade. Upgrade. Upgrade.
I like the floating circles, great job with the visuals, ha! I love the RC-505 for its simplicity, i hope i ll make more music with Ableton when i finished emulating the 505 workflow there!
Oh ya!!! Glad U like the circles 😆 I wanted to make it really obvious what was recording ❤️👍
Well done!
Enjoyed and subbed. Very useful!
Aww ur a friend! Thank you!
Veldig bra, Emily! :-) You and that RC 505 machine make a very good team... Your voice and rhythm are incredibly good... I love it! -Thank you for everything you give us. Take care!
Thanks Hroar! Ya I like it for certain circumstances but I think I’m still more comfortable using the floor one in general. Even tho I can’t access all the tricks from the floor. But I like both!
This is a great way to engage with a song. Also, I love this song.
It’s a cool song 🤘😆 thanks friend!
More fabulousness to come!
Woohoo!!! This was a fun one. So many options with the 505!
Better than original song ! Much better. A lot of work and dedication, and in effect: looks so natural and easy.
Aww you’re very kind ❤️ that’s what I’m going for!
Naturalness and ease* I mean. Not that I’m better than original haha 🤗
You are incredible!!! I dig!!! Thanks!
You are! Cheers my friend 🥰
An ace arrangement, performed brilliantly!
Oh wow thank you! I was just watching your videos! Aww 🥰
Totally amazing ❤
Thanks Derek!
Thanks for the education and inspiration!
Aww sean! My pleasure u sweet thang 😜
as someone who's cat absolutely loves music (especially synths and guitar) I reckon your dog is having a great time
My cat?
Love how you're mixing your vocal fx by shifting between mics. Really cool sound variations.
Oh man thanks!!
Yo this is so inspiring… Your voice is amazing!!
Aw shucks! Thanks friend 🥰
Amazing help, thanks a lot
Oh good! Glad you enjoyed friend!
So helpful thank you, u rock
You are so welcome!
What a talent! Superb voice, love it!
🥰🥰🥰
Awesome! Great video!
Aww thanks friend! Trying to decide what song to do next
@@EmilyMcVicker I just got my RC-505 the other day after seeing your video. Please keep them coming!
7:38 cat wasn't expecting that! 😆❤️
😂😂😂 I hadn’t noticed that pahahaha
i was searching info for rc505.. but i found more interesting your music, style and composition!!
compliments from italy!
Oh good! So lovely to connect with you and glad u like the videos 🥰🥰🥰
Nice work!
Thanks Philip !
Wow you are so talented in singing and it was a really good looping. I bought my RCR 505 MKll and I am gonna start lopping.
I watched this video three times, nice job 👍
oh amazing! i'm so stoked you like it so much!!!
Love it. Great vocals
Thanks friend! Using the Fx is a little new to me but I’m having fun!
@@EmilyMcVicker it’s a great bit of kit. Was tempted… I bought a RC-500 recently but not sure I’ll keep it. Got good results with LoopyHD on the iPad - good budget alternative to the 505! I play guitar so feet over hands!
Great stuff👏
Thanks friend!
Wow, ta façon de jouer ta musique est magnifique! Bravo ma belle!🥰
Thank you friend! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow! Amazing!!!
Thank you! Cheers! 🤘😜
Really cool !
Thank you friend!
Really a great arrangement. The great thing about the MK2 is that you can bounce multiple tracks onto one
Interesting - tell me more! What is the context that you would do that?
@@EmilyMcVicker Hello, the function is awesome. For example, you can record four drum tracks and then bounce them together to the fifth track. The function is very hidden, I put bounce on/off on one of the knobs under the display so I can quickly activate and deactivate die. If bounce is activated on the fifth track, it works great. The four tracks can now be deleted and played again. That offers so many more possibilities. Also with singing or instruments. Here is a sample by BreZ he bounces tracks 2-5 at 0:30 onto the first track. czcams.com/video/-h9BTriqQd8/video.html
Great Créativité. Great sounds emily l like you ❤ 🔥
I appreciate your video I just bought this boss RC 505 MK2. You make it look so easy thank you again eddie9903
Oh fun! Let me know how u like it! I like the 505 for some things. And then sometimes I prefer the ease of the 600. Fun to expand what I can bring to a gig!
@@EmilyMcVicker first of all I appreciate you taking the time to comment back. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to play back a memory that I stored. I have stored a couple loops but how do you play them back? I really appreciate you taking the time out to answer my question. Thank you so much.
Very cool review of RC505. Enjoyed 100% more then review from loopop ❤😂
You are very kind!! I hope they will call me for the next one then! 😉
Thanks for sharing 😊
Happy to! 🥰
Awesome video., Where did you get the dual mic arm for the dynamic mic on the left?
Hey Jason! It’s a regular arm with a double mic mount. There’s a to. If size options on Amazon. I have a little assortment I’ve experimented with gava
You're Amazing ! What a Beautiful Spirit. ThX !!✌🎸
Thank you sweet friend!
That was awesome
Aww thanks Colin!
Cool demo
Thanks sweet Dan!!! 🤘😜
Dope!!
Hee hee!! Thanks!!
PPPfffui, but what an enchanting voice... Splendid...I Adore...
Thank you friend ❤️🤗❤️
Soon !! 🤩🎼🎶
Thanks!
You bet!
Incredible
Thank you friend!
Gorgeous talent
Thank you so much 😀
Amazing!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
@@EmilyMcVicker now, i have an idea, but i wish I could sing like you!!!
Just like that eh?!! lol amazing, I'll not mention the knob riding part that would be childish of me 🤭🤭😉🫡
Yes! Haha don’t mention it 😉
Es hat wirklich großes Potential. Noch nicht ganz perfekt. Es fehlt eine zweite Stimme. Bleib dran. Die zweite Stimme bleibt im Hintergrund und es wird voller und warmherziger. Bitte bleib dran. Herzlichst Susanne Pürschel
Oh interesting. Do you play this song? I would love to hear how you navigate the 2nd verse 👍
really great and good Roland's Boss RC-505² seriously playin'... I think that machine is very good, but I think you are more better to handle it and creating that soul feeling sound. best regards, Frank Liebe
Aw thanks Frank! A looper is really a mirror to reflect and multiply our style. Takes a sec to get used to.
Verdammt, ist es gut!
Aww shucks thank you friend!!
an avid fan of Emily'swork... this one is a masterpiece. And the best part is the lovely "cat-producer" (what's his/her name, Emily?) supervising all 😅. GINGER BREADS TO YOU, EMILY
Gingerbread to you as well, my friend! My kitties name is Cleo. she just turned three! 🤘😆😻
Danke!
Thank you so much friend! I really appreciate it ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best tutorial for the mk2 on CZcams. The end.
Aww thanks man! Wow 🙏❤️🙏
As always you make it seem so easy. Great work!
Thank you sweet Harold
Awesome. Not gonna lie. I’m probably gonna steal a couple things from yours for mine for live.
Oh great!! Haha go for it! 🤪
You are so beautiful and so talented! Amazing voice, beautiful eyes and smile too! Thanks for an inspiration! I am your new fan and subscriber. I wish you all the best in the future! Greetings from Serbia :)
Thank you so much!! I appreciate you my friend! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful job and great voice! A question: if you wanted, would you be able to.introduce harmony on lead voice instead of that reverb in the chorus of the song, or wasnt possibile wirh the loopstation?
There is a harmony Fx in there you could play with. Personally i don’t love digital harmony. The voicings dont work in every scenario and I personally prefer recording them myself. But some folks like them. So give it a try!
I've become quite fond of using the RC505 on all my instruments. My beatboxing sucks, which is why I got the thing, but hey I've adapted lol.
Oh interesting! Adapting can be the root of some real creativity and discovery! How it going now?
@@EmilyMcVicker the beatboxing is still bad lol. But overall it’s going well. Im not a gig artist (yet) but I am enjoying learning more and I’ve even incorporated my RC 202 into the fold. So I’ve gone Loop crazy you could say 😝
You are amazing \m/
Thank you so much Friend! Glad you like the videos 🫶😜
¡Gracias!
De nada amigo! :)
Excellent
Thanks Fenix 🥰🥰🥰
Superb 🎉
Thank you! Cheers!
man your IQ for this stuff is so high, loved watching you build this. Thank you
You’re very kind! Happy to share 🤘❤️
cool vid, I've also ordered a rc 505 these days... let's see :)
BTW: the "weird auto-tune effect" is a comb filter, since you are using two mics, too close to each other, with a slightly different latency...
I don’t see why that would make the pitch do that. It sounds like the effect on the pedal to me choosing the wrong pitch
i stick with it... it's a comb filter, and some frequencies get deleted or exaggerated... this leads to this uncontrollable flutter... but who cares.. great stuff, you are doing! :)
Love
Amazing, loved it!! I’m attempting to get a Hall effect but failing, I use the echo setting but the end of it sounds really flat do you know how I would fix this? Thanks x
Hmm I would try combining with another Fx together. Is Hall effect kind of like echo too? And you can tweak a little and save whatever you create in the effect options
💖💖 Totally EPIC! Love it! has Boss hired you yet to do demo vids for them? They should! ❤❤
They sent me that looper for free! That was pretty cool!
@@EmilyMcVicker Yes.....very cool!
this makes me wanna get a loopback station now
Would this one be a good one for you? Tell me about your music!
chevere! gracias..
Thank you friend!
Awsome still torn. Between getting the rc 505 or not I'm getting mixed reviews.
Ahhh. What are your thoughts? What instruments do you usually play?
Great video Emily! What speakers d you recommend for the RC-505 mk 2 please? At moment I'm using Roland Mobile Cube but it hisses all the time :/
Oh! Great question! Im working on a video RIGHT NOW that I want to show you! Hoping to put it out in a few days! Stay tuned!
Thank you sooo much!! 😊😊🙏🙏 That will be great video!! I spent so much time trying find the best speaker to get for it? 🙈😅What I’m looking for is small speakers for home use which are portable too😃😃🙌🙌
