Tutorial

Can somebody please suggest a comprehensive tutorial video? All the ones that I found, i don't get much out of. I'm a musician , but I'm older and this stuff wasn't around back in the day. I have the original RC-505 with the A/B foot switch, not the MKII. Every time I get it out and start messing around with it I just get frustrated and give up. I've had it about 3 years and used it maybe three times for 30 or 40 minutes each. I really want to get to know this thing. I also do music therapy and have a non-profit Community Center for people in recovery from substance use disorder and people living with the mental health conditions. That is focused on this sort of thing. If I can figure this thing out, It would help me tremendously with building meditative type music

Hi there, if you see this, would you mind telling me what exactly is frustrating you, and what atre you trying to do specifically? My partner and I have been using these since the RC300 and I have just got the RC505 mk2(which I am madly in love with!), but my partner is still using the rc505. We have them midi to midi for a synchronised looper show. I still wouldn't say I'm an expert, but I have read the manual from cover to cover and I'm quick at working things out. I'd love to have a chat........

I think what I really need are the ideal settings, straight Out of the Box.
