  • **HELP** RC-300 Loop Pedal Troubleshooting Advice asap!

    I have just recently began to use the RC 300 loop station.

    I had it working fine the first few times, now I have gone back to it, and the output is coming out really strange and muffled. I tried 6 different leads (yes, non-resister) and 2 different amps and three different instruments, and it's still coming out weird. I've tried the amp by itself, and there's no problem there with its input or the instruments.

    It at first wouldn't use the AC-Adapter I've used every time with it, but I tried it with a Line-6 AC adapter and it worked. (input 230v, 50hz / output 9vac 1200mA)

    I reset the pedal with no avail, even changed what plug socket I'm using, then began looking in to the output settings. Even following the basics of connecting the loop pedal to the amp as found here: http://cms.rolandus.com/assets/media...ning_guide.pdf produces this sound.

    I've attached an MP3 of me clicking the 'rec/play' pedal, and the sound you hear is the muffled and buzzy sound of the tempo tap. (i'd recommend listening to it with headphones) https://soundcloud.com/user228861790/sampleofboss

    I feel really stupid, please help!! I'll be on all day, so anything you suggest I will try straight away!

    UPDATE:

    For anyone with the same problem, after much searching, I found a roland AC adapter which did the trick. I thought it might've been a problem with the voltage of the AC, and i hunted high and low for another one, and this one works.

      FYI, the Roland RC-300 utilizes a 9 Volt DC output adapter.
      The Line 6 is a VAC output.

      You are real lucky that you did not fry the RC-300.
