Boss RC-5 Loop station issue

[MaybeBaby]

Hey fam!
I bought this loop pedal and I feel like I've been ripped off..

The loop sounds fine but once I play over it....this happens.
Never mind the wrong notes..I'm was to mad at this pedal.
I tried to mess with the loop level but it makes it even worse
Someone has a solution to it?

Can you still return it?

Maybe it's a common issue with a solution to it but I'm not familiar with this pedal

 

[Lindsey]

I found two comments here that may help if it's not broken


"Run the looper in the amps fx loop if you have one, I use a solid state to practice never had a problem with a looper. Sure some amps do suck at "looping", nothing to do with solid state or tubes, imo. Only time I came across this was using a digitech RP, those loopers suck, just pure mud when trying to play over loop."

Damn sorry to hear that mate, I have the same looper and Have not encountered this issue. Try to return it for sure!

I don't have one but did you read the manual or try to look something up on Youtube or something?

And do you use other pedals with the looper?
I connected tye looper straight to the amp (Fender mustang 1) without any other pedals.

I found somewhere that that might be the problem?

I connect the looper straight into the amp (my trusty boss katana mk1). I usually record chords and then just play away and have not encountered an issue to be honest.

With distortion and all?
Because it sounds good at clean, the problem accours only on distortion
