[. . . ] User's Guide Warning For your protection, please read the following: Water and Moisture: Appliances should not be used near water (e. g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc. ) Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings. These symbols are internationally accepted symbols that warn of potential hazards with electrical products. The lightning flash means that there are dangerous voltages present within the unit. The exclamation point indicates that it is necessary for the user to refer to the owners manual. These symbols warn that there are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. [. . . ] Gain - The Parameter 3 knob adjusts the Output Gain from the Compressor. Ranges from 0 to 6. Amp Modeling Amp Modeling is a technology which applies the tone of several popular modern and vintage amps. Amp Modeling also includes an acoustic guitar simulation. Amp Type - The Parameter 1 knob selects the 12 types of Amp Models. amp Of - Turns the modeling off BLKFAC - Based on a `65 Fender Twin Reverb BOUTIQ - Based on a Matchless DC30 RECTIF - Based on a Mesa Dual Rectifier HOTROD - Based on a Mesa Boogie Mark II C tweeD - Based on a `57 Fender Tweed Deluxe CLEAN1 - Based on a Vox AC30 top boost CLEAN2 - A clean tube combo setting STACK - Based on a Marshall JCM900 CRUNCH - A nice crunchy combo HIGAIN - Based on the Johnson JM150 High Gain FUZZ - A vintage fuzz distortion ACOUST - A flat top acoustic guitar Marshall® is a registered trademark of Marshall Amplification Plc. Vox® is a registered trademark of Korg UK. Fender, Matchless, and Mesa Boogie, are trademarks of their respective companies and are in no way associated with DigiTech. Amp Gain - The Parameter 2 knob adjusts the Gain (distortion) for the selected Amp Model (not available for Acoustic). The Gain parameter ranges from 0 to 99. Amp Level - The Parameter 3 knob adjusts the Level (volume) of the selected Amp Model. The Level parameter ranges from 0 to 99. 17 EQ Equalization is an extremely useful tool used to further shape the tonal response of your guitar signal. The EQ in the RP200 is similar to the tone knobs on an amplifier. All three EQ parameters range from -12dB to +12 dB. Bass - The Parameter 1 knob adjusts the amount of low end enhancement (Bass). MiD - The Parameter 2 knob adjusts the amount of mid range enhancement. TReB - The Parameter 3 knob adjusts the amount of high end enhancement (Treble). Cabinet/Gate The Cabinet Modeling simulates different types of miked speaker cabinets. You have your choice of 3 Cabinet Types and 4 Mic Placements in relationship to the speaker cabinet. A Noise Gate is designed to eliminate noise while you are not playing. Cabinet/Mic - The Parameter 1 knob selects the type of simulated Speaker cabinet and mic placement in relation to the speaker. CAB OF - Cabinet Off DARK 1 - Dark 4x12 Mic DARK 2 - Dark 4x12 Mic DARK 3 - Dark 4x12 Mic DARK 4 - Dark 4x12 Mic BRIT BRIT BRIT BRIT 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 WARM WARM WARM WARM 1 2 3 4 - Warm - Warm - Warm - Warm 4x12 4x12 4x12 4x12 Mic Mic Mic Mic 1 2 3 4 - Bright Bright Bright Bright 2x12 2x12 2x12 2x12 Mic Mic Mic Mic 1 2 3 4 18 Gate Type - The Parameter 2 knob selects between the Silencer TM Noise Gate, or the Auto Swell volume swell effect. Values include: Gat Of (Turns the Noise Gate off), silNCR (Selects the SilencerTM Noise Gate) and swEl1 through swEl9 (Selects the Auto Swell volume swell effect. These settings will automatically ramp up the volume from a 200 milliseconds volume fade in to a 2 second volume fade in). Gate Thresh - The Parameter 3 knob sets the signal strength (Threshold) required to open or close the Noise Gate. The Gate Threshold parameter ranges from 1 (opens easily) to 40 (requiring strong signals to open). 19 Effects The Effects row in the RP200 is a multi-function module, allowing you to select effects such as; Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo, Panner, Vibrato, Rotary Speaker, YaYaTM, AutoYaTM, SynthTalkTM, Envelope Filter (auto wah), Detune, Pitch Shift, and WhammyTM effects. When the Effects row is selected, the Parameter 1 knob is used to choose the type of Effect or turn the Effect module off (eff Of). Only one of the effects in this row can be used at a time. After selecting the type of effect in this module, the Parameter 2 and Parameter 3 knobs can then be used to adjust the individual parameters associated with the selected effect. The following list describes each Effect and their Parameters in more detail: Chorus (CHORUS) A Chorus adds a short delay to your signal. The delayed signal is modulated in and out of tune and then mixed back with the original signal to create a thicker sound. Amount - The Parameter 2 knob simultaneously adjusts the rate (Speed) and intensity (Depth) of the modulation. Level - The Parameter 3 knob controls the mix level of the Effect. Flange (FLaNge) A Flanger uses the same principle as a Chorus but uses a shorter delay time and adds regeneration (or repeats) to the modulating delay. This results in an exaggerated up and down sweeping motion to the effect.

This procedure will erase all custom user Presets, and recalibrate the Expression Pedal. ATTENTION: Performing this function will erase all user-programmed data. Be sure you want to erase the memory and start fresh before continuing with this procedure. The procedure for performing a Factory Reset is as follows: 1. [. . . ]
