DigiTech RP355

What are the effects, or types of effects available: Almost all!

everything is very adjustable and the quality is excellent
see description on previous posts or supplier site that is sufficiently complete

UTILIZATION

- The general configuration is it simple?
For me, it was not easy to use initially $
My opinion is rather of interest to novices, as I was myself by buying and effects is not my department

I chose my mituculeusement gear (guitars + amp) to have no "need" this kind of accessories, but to look for new sounds or "imitate" the one you love for inspiration .. This kind of multi-effect is really great

- The manual is clear and sufficient?
Yes very, thanks to Mannuel I have known use, modify, save the configs ..

- Publishing of sound effects or is it easy?
Like I said I am not an expert, then a notice for not heavily tested. I had a zoom, so I can compare and say that there is no clear picture: with the zoom I feel like a synth, sounds ring hollow compared to the rp335 allowing to have fun and sound specific.
Reverb sound blusey the worst metal Detroy area, if applied to seek a good config (test the various models provided in the RP335 pedals, handle the equalizer ...) we ended up being satisfied
there are also models to imitate the sounds of amp / pre amp ... I must admit there is too much for me in my case, but it can please, let's say it has allowed me to play something that klk ressemple to jm800 jm900 or but to be honest I love my peavey classis 30 and So when I want to "really" play I never put imitations of box ..

the "wrong" problem is there are so many choices that, for novices like me, do not rush, attacking first the things we know (or distortion wah wah ...) to familiarize themselves with the beast, and after digging slowly ... frankly it's rich, too rich limit

SOUND QUALITY

- The effects are they effective, appropriate and realistic enough?
Yes, truly realistic and credible, but watch again for novices: allow time for adaptation as it may sound good but is pedal to change the equalizer or compressor ... suddenly it takes hours c but if done well then the result is satisfactory

- Which instruments do you use? Which ones you prefer, you hate?
and Custom77 stratocaster and amp all tube peavey classic30
j'aprécie for two guitars, after this issue of configuration again it is not easy to find a good sound, and not put the metal on his Detroy stratum but otherwise it's yucky not the fault of the RP335

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
almost 2 years
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
No, I pedal a simple multi purpose zoom, and I only use distortion and gain or auto wah so little experience

- What is so special that you love the most, least?
I like the looper but I ended up buying another digitch for 35 minutes because 20 seconds is too little
I love the strength and "credibility" sounds
and value for money that I find very satisfying
I do not like their weight (a little too heavy but the price to pay c to have something solid klk)

short, I recommend it

Pdalier numrique, featuring all the usual connections.

UTILIZATION

Manuel OK, forget it quickly because the configuration is simple.

SOUND QUALITY

The effect presets are nice, the correct edition, and the sound is very "numrique" and clean (not just a hair on Octavers latency).

OVERALL OPINION

I bought for my son practice guitar for 2 years. I was looking for a pdalier compact, robust, with a stomp mode and good range of effects so that he could express, get an idea of ​​the effects and possibly replace it later by a set of pedals that go well.

The RP355 is done all my specifications: in metal chassis, good bookcase effects, pdalier super convenient ... I do not have the opportunity to use the USB functions.

In short, an excellent choice for use Describes.

A can about all the effects are in this bracket (at least more than I need) editable Mac and PC format pedal, digital, super full USB MIDI connection etc. ..

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is not necessarily intuitive, but after reading the manual (very short and ClaI) that will pose no problem. The product is used immediately in any case with the factory presets. The editing and sound effects are relatively simple, however like all these products (rich in possibilities) that rather quickly turn the gas plant


SOUND QUALITY

The quality is Audible effects as is often the case variable (depending on the amp used and the type of effect), I do not use the amp simulations (which are splittable and it is the first Once I saw it on a multi-effect !!!), néamoins is a good practical accessory (I previously used on stage), we can prepare its presets or use it as a pedal as if you had a distortion pedal, a delay and chorus for example. So practice with many possibilities. I use it on my Champ XD with a strato homemade (with the help of Xavier Petit thank you to him) and a Tokai LP (super )

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a little over 6 months, I have not tried other models because the characteristics and the price was exactly what I needed. I love the ability to record a loop of 20 seconds, the extensive connection system, the compact side (it is easy to carry enough charge ...) and the enormous opportunities, less like the sounds that remain typed multi-effect (but are qualities, however, I'm telling me to mount a conventional crankset (with several pedals KOI! to have my own sound) but I keep my Rp335 for my models and relief concert. C ' is a purchase that I highly recommend, I'm not disappointed as all-purpose product, it is almost everything but nothing so outstanding. But for the price initially was completely available and it is really super

Almost everything you need. The sounds are editable via USB and software to download on the official site, which is very good.
There are all the necessary connectors: XLR jacks and outputs, USB, audio, headphone ... Nothing to say
Everything is digital

UTILIZATION

For me, the main drawback of this pedal is its ergonomics: edit the sounds on the box is downright complicated and unclear. HAPPILY, editing via software, however, is childishly simple (I'm just like that or almost).
I also regret the display (a preset name is only 6 characters, which requires a little mental exercise to write the second CHDDR2 style "drive" for agreements ... A display a little more fun would be nice .
Other defect, the selection of presets on the fly is done sequentially (you must scroll through the presets).
All this is nothing embarrassing frankly, it's just a regret that would make this pedal an even better product.
The manual is straightforward and provided in French.
I could have just okay but I'll call "good" because the pedal is rather nice and sturdy, which is an asset.

SOUND QUALITY

The sounds are very good. Like others, I find that the default presets are average, but rather intended to show just what he can do.
But as there are lots of nice presets on the web, and we come with the software quickly find what you want.
Contrary to what some say, I do not think this pedal transforms a bad guitar machine to make beautiful sound. BUT, this is not the purpose of such a pedal, which gives us a very good value for money almost unbeatable.
Basically if you want better, we will have (as I hope to do someday), you buy a Gretsch Falcon 3500 and an amp at the same price.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few days and she is adopted because it has everything I wanted. If we do not take offense too much about ergonomics, you can find a lot of fun.

+ What I like:
- Sounds
- The editing via software
- Robustness

What I like -:
- Editing of presets on the pedal (but the software compensates)
- The display of the pedal and its poor 6 characters
- The sequential selection of presets

I would do this choice without hesitation. Digitech if still a little effort on ergonomics, this mess will be a killer.
