« Digitech RP100 »
Published on 12/19/01 at 15:00It was a gift, but the list price at Brook Mays Music was $99.99
Things I like:
1. The Amp Modeling: I have a solid state Crate amp, but long for Tube sounds. THis gets me as close as I can without getting a tube amp. Several different amp models give each effect a different "flavor."
2. Great barrage of effects: Each effect is fully programmable and sounds full and rich. I also like the auto wah and rotating speaker effects quite a bit.
3. Storage: It's easy to program your own sounds in store them as presets. I have three or four effects groups I switch between as I lead the worship service at my church.
4. Built-in drum machine: I know it sounds cheesy, but I've found it fun and even pretty useful when I'm jamming by myself. lots of preset tracks here, as well.
I don't have a volume pedal, so I'm not able to control the dynamic effects like wah and ya. For a built in Pedal, you need to get the RP200, and spend an extra 50 bucks.
Construction of the RP100 can only be described as "Solid." I don't leave it in one place very much, and don't have a case to fit it, so it gets banged around quite a bit, but hasn't lost a step. The stomp pedals are durable, as well. The display is also clear and easy to read from a standing position.
I'd recommend this unit wholeheartedly to anyone with a solid-=state amp who's looking for some "tube tone" to go along with a ton of effects. If you don't alredy have a volume pedal, though, you would be better suited with the RP200, which includes a volume/Wah pedal as part of the unit.
