How I Create Ed Sheeran Loops With The Boss Rc-505mk2

Published 2024-03-11
How I Create Ed Sheeran Loops With The Boss Rc-505mk2. I go back and forth between the rc-505 and the rc-600. I find the 600 a little more conducive for live gigs while playing instruments. Any thoughts on my FS-6 technique?

    YouTube somehow found out I was lacking inspiration to get on my loopstation & practice everyday. This makes me want to brush up my skills. Thank you!
  • Wow Emily! You are so TALENTED! I love watching your videos. You inspire me towards creativeness.🎵🎶 Thank You So Much!🤩
  • @gaudeam1
    long time I wasn’t visiting Your page (shame on me, You’re one of my favourite youtuber): your hair grow longer! 😅. Apart from this, very interesting and inspiring like always. And I totally agree about the video of this song being supercool: It moved me when I saw it the first time: a beautiful combination romanticism, interracial positive statement, self-irony. Thanks, Emily!

    3:55 Was not expecting that reharmonization of the original song's chords. Awesome stuff! You rock!
  • @lennywiuff615
    You are the bomb, Em! You are so unconsciously good!

    It's really cool and inspiring seeing Ed Sheeran perform mostly solo concerts selling out stadiums. Proving anything is possible. Talent Is talent and that having a band is not the end all be all to play at bigger and better places entertaining large crowds. By the way I really love your looping skills and beautiful voice! Last video I saw of you was the Makie Showbox and really loved your rendition of Zombie. Keep it up🎵
  • BRAVOOO BRAVOOO ! SUPERB ! VERY VERY GODD, AMAZING ! congrats ! and a big hug from a brazillian fan...
  • @xlat808
    Great video! Nice explanation at the top! You really know what you are doing. Also, hello, Cleo!
  • @DrD4n
    Wow! Just wow! I love to see that you have a new video out every time. but this time it has the 505MKII in it, which I use :) How did you set your loops? Do you assign the length beforehand or is it on auto? Thank you!
  • @veggiehamb8666
    Wow! I was seriously impressed with the video of this song that Headrush just released of Sheeran playing it on a looper. I didn't know he was a loop artist. I just knew the songs that clients have requested, which are all great. His performance was great (aside from the out of tune guitar, why did they keep that take?!?) But this arrangement is even better. The groove is so good... and you just laid down the parts one after another with no down time. So many questions, but mostly wanna know was that D# on top on purpose? Caught me by surprise and I loved it, but seemed like maybe a happy accident :)

    Should I get the new Ed Sheeran Looper? I think he's collaborated with the folks at Headrush - anybody recommend?
