Digitech Review: RP-100

History:

Purchase: well i had previous owned a zoom processor, and it was ok but the delay wasnt as user friendly as i woulda liked. after getting fed up with it i sold it and bought this unit...for like $129,00 us...

What I Like About This Digitech RP-100: inexpensive.....well built......some of the effects are kinda cool as well....and the fact that it has a headphone jack on it... it once helped me keep my sanity during the hell of a greyhound trip

What I Do NOT Like About The Digitech RP-100: well, at first i liked it alot....and eventually after i edited all the presets to what i liked...(for the most part)....i realized that switching between presets wasnt seamless...like all the lovely individual stompboxes...(i.e. boss HM2 and the likes) also, when recording the distortion leaves what can only be described as a thin blanket over the dynamics of the sound...really makes the guitar almost un-intelegable....individual notes are lost

Digitech RP-100 Quality Rating: solid construction but when it comes down to it....the sound is what is important

Review Summary: not bad if you are using to write songs and stuff....i mean if you have a practice amp and are sitting in your living room practicing...it is awesome...i mean it also comes with a glorified metronome included and that is great for practicing, but recording is kinda rough and well your live sound is kinda mushy with it...so there....

Rating of this Digitech product: 3
