« Digitech RP200A »
Published on 09/04/04 at 15:00I bought this a a music store in Boston, Mass used for $100 in excellent condition. I bought as an upgrade to my original unit the RP50 which i grew out of. Also i bought it because i wanted something really simple i didnt want to have to carry around all these effects pedals, this fits easily in a backpack or some other type of small bag.
I like that it has the built in expression pedal because my old RP50 didnt have one. Ive always liked Mike Einzigers volume swells so I wanted to use it for that and the wah. Im a big fan of the wah pedal so i was happy it came built in and i was able to easily get my own wah programmed in. Also theres many different ways you can make each effect different. Theres so many choices I find that flange, chorus, delay, reverb, phaser, and wammy are they coolest effects (in my opinion) on here and i use them all the time. you can get any sound out of this thing! the best part about this unit is how much money you save rather than buying several different pedals and cables. the amp modeling is great to because my distortion on my amp is so bad so i just put in a clean setting and play.
I dont like the fact that its so difficult for me to find the right EQ. you might not have this problem but i cant find a clear distortion sound. The wah on this unit is alright but i think ill save up and get a seperate wah pedal.
This thing is unbreakable to me because im aways dropping capos and slide on the screan and theres no marks sometimes i drop it not a dent or anything...well built and long lasting.
Besides the dislikes i mentioned everything is great i love it and ill probably have it for a long time. i suggest you go out and buy one youll like it too. Oh and and please DO NOT pass up this item just because i cant get a really clear sound but i got really close im just stupid and i still have to get used to it. trust me you want this pedal!
