I use an RC20-XL with the duo I play in so I can lay down a backing and solo to give the sax player a rest and to add some variation. This works really well.
I had the pedal at a rehearsal we did with a full band and it was not so successful. A loop pedal was strictly on the money, the drummer was not, even though his a great drummer and time keeper. If you want to use it with a band, the drummer will need to hear the loop very clearly (perhaps via headphones) to ensure he (or she) keeps the time right.
