Re: DIGITECH RP 360
I picked up the secondary footswitch for mine. Some presets ok, but the real beauty comes when dialing your own sounds in and highly recommended to go with full range amplified setup. You can turn off amp and cab sims or just amp/just cab to use with real amp and cab if you want also. Sometimes I run it into my fx return and use the amp sim, but no cab sim. Most of the time its used with headphones, my iLoud 40 watt bluetooth speaker, or into my mixer and out PA.
The sims and fx are very good with a little time spent dialing it in. I like JTM, Citrus, and 800 sims a lot and it can really nail a classic rock, raw early metal sound good. Clean amp sims great too. The unit can be restored to factory easy enough. I keep mine in stombox mode and switch through presets with the secondary footswitch. It was a bargain given the quality of the fx and amps.
Some presets though - what were they thinking?? Just because you have 8 or 9 effects doesn't mean you need to pile them all on. Sheesh.
I can match my real amp heads and cab with a little time spent, to 90% of the sound. Not quite the same playing feel as the real amps in responsiveness to volume knob, but not bad. Same with pick dynamics. It surprised me.
I don't use the software to program it. Fully friendly programming right on the unit with that fat display.
