This RP500 looks like the 'real deal'...looks like it's kind of based on the Boss ME50 & ME70 pedals...using basically, separate pedal modules, but the multi-fx mentality where it comes to editing patches, and whatnot.
I've always loved Boss tones, and use them often...in a pedalboard set-up...you know...with all the patch cables, battery eliminators, headaches, et.al.
Digitech has come a long, long way when it comes to tone, and I think the tone you can squeeze out of their multi-fx boards far exceeds the tones you can get using separate Digitech pedals in a pedalboard. In fact, I have been mostly using the Digitech GNX2 for a couple years now, and I believe they have passed up Boss in tone, whether in pedalboards, or multi-fx units.
So...Digitech, utilizing a 'separate pedal' approach in a multi-fx unit is really, really intriguing to me!
I can't wait to hear it...and thanks to you guys, and your contest, I now have hopes of winning one...IF you'd be so kind as to enter me into the RP500 Contest?!?
Please?
Peace...
