When he plays a loop with distortion, and whenever he's playing a solo on distortion, the loop seems to fade. Why does this happen? Can this be avoided? I am really eager to purchase the Boss RC-3, but I don't want to run into a problem like this when I'm trying to solo over…** A: I've had the same problem but its an easy fix. I have a volume pedal that connects befor this one. (you can use your guitar volume). When you record something it is set at a specific volume. When you play something louder the pedal fades the other just a tad bit. So if you play something on volume 5, record it and play over it with a volume 10, you will most likely only hear the volume 10 one. If you record volume 5 and then play with volume 1, you will barely hear the volume 1. Its just choosing how loud to play that affects which recordings you hear more. If the recordings are exactly the same volume there will be no problem. I just use my volume pedal to get the right level of volume while i'm playing. *One thing to keep in mind which is a mistake I make every now and then is that I will record at the highest volume then play it back trying to solo over it, and its the same volume making it hard to hear. You can change the volume of the recording to lower but that also affects anything you will record then too. To be honest, you just have to play with it, it is a problem you can easily figure out like I have, its just hard to explain. **Q: Why will it not let me play distortion over a clean tone loop? It always make the clean tone sound the same as my distortion?** A: You're doing something wrong. Either you're using distortion from your amp, or you've placed your distortion pedal after the looper in your signal chain. **Q: Does anyone use this unit for live acoustic performance? If so, how does it work in this setting?** A: Yes Works well Just repeats a pattern that is put in or prerecord and use #d memory ( best to write these down You can download or create melodies **Q: Can i use a regular 9v power adapter or do i actually have to buy the boss psa adapter?** A: The manual indicates: "Use only the specified AC adapter (PSA series), and connect it to an AC outlet of the correct voltage. Do not use any other AC adaptor, since this may cause malfunction." Alternatively, you can use a 9V alkaline battery, although the unit has a relative high power consumption. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ec/products/1544267-boss-rc-3-loop-station-pedal-red](https://www.desertcart.ec/products/1544267-boss-rc-3-loop-station-pedal-red) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ecuador* *Store origin: EC* *Last updated: 2026-08-14*
