For BOSS RC-600 and RC-505mk2 loop stations

Less menu-diving. More looping.

Edit memories and system settings, sort out setlists, manage your audio and build rhythms on your computer. I wanted an editor for my own looper, so I built one. No more back-ache from menu-diving.

Works with Windows 10 (build 19041) and macOS 12 Monterey or later. Tested with looper firmware 1.5.

A quick note: This is an independent project, not affiliated with BOSS/Roland. Please keep a regular backup of your looper. Their file formats are theirs, and I can't promise they won't surprise us.

Easy Edit

All those memory settings, without the button workout.

The Memory Editor follows the RC-600 and RC-505mk2 menus, but gives you a much roomier place to work. Change values, revert edits, and drag memories into a new order.

Need to rename a memory or put it back to factory settings? Right-click it. Sometimes the obvious thing is the best thing.

System Editor

Tweak the looper's system settings from your computer.

Memory Manager

Copy settings from one memory to a bunch of others.

Build a basket of the settings you want, then apply them across multiple memories. Assigns, Mode button setup, and plenty more are all fair game.

If your looper is available on your network, you can also push changes straight to the hardware.

Backups and Restore

A backup takes a click. Future-you may be very glad you made one.

Back up your system, memories, and loops, then choose what to restore when you need it. Work on a copy when you can; it is a lot less exciting than rescuing a gig setup at the last minute.

Audio Manager

Listen to, import, and export WAV files between memories.
You can even bounce down tracks while you're offline (which is pretty handy).

The Audio Manager checks file properties and prompts for tempo when it needs it. It also converts 8-, 16-, and 24-bit WAV files to the looper's required 32-bit stereo, 44.1 kHz format, including that particular 512 KB padding requirement.

Drag memories into a setlist and put the right songs in the right order for the room. You can also keep song templates and half-finished ideas organized for later.

WAV Studio

Chop, slice, fade, normalize, and join WAV audio in the editor.

Got a long recording to split up, or a few clips to join together? This is the screen for you. Simple tools, less bouncing between apps.
