I just got an RC-2 Loop Station pedal, and I really like it, but there is one feature that I wish it had. Basically, you step on the pedal to start recording, and then step on it again to stop recording and start playback. This is fine for laying down a basic groove to play against, but I have one song where I want to layer about 8 parts. The only way can do this is to record one loop (28 beats long) and then let it play back one entire time before adding the next layer. Each layer has to play back one entire cycle before I can record the next layer. What I wish it had was a setting where I could click the pedal to start recording and then click again to stop that layer and begin recording the next. If you press the pedal twice quickly, it shuts playback off. C'est la vie. Otherwise, its a great pedal.
I share a similar problem (If not the same? Not totally clear on yours.) with this pedal.
I'd like to have a short repeating riff as my base loop. Then be able to record/dub longer melody loops over top of it. But it boils down to all dubs/loops can only fit within the length of the base loop. That sucks!!! And is my major complaint about this pedal.
Does anybody know if the RC-20 & RC-20XL share the same loop length requirements?

I have that problem too! I record the riff a few times & record over that 'longer' riff, but I don't see another option.
