DigiTech RP500 Guitar Multi-Effects Processor

Free 20-Second Looper Upgrade for the RP500 Multi-Effect Switching System, now available via USB update at DigiTech's website!

The Simplicity of a Stompbox. The Control of an Effect Switching System.The RP500 takes the complexity of an effect switching system and combines it with the simplicity of stompboxes. Full arsenals of tones are at your disposal, all easily controlled. If you're a player who takes command of their tone by turning individual pedals on and off, enable the Pedalboard Mode button and instantly use the 5 footswitches to turn the RP500's stompboxes and effects on and off within a program. If you are tired with the effect tap-dance and want to concentrate on playing, the RP500's Preset Mode gives you instant access to 5 totally different sounds with the single press of a footswitch (100 presets total across 20 different banks). Now the RP500 features a 20-second looper. Simply play, loop, change tones then overdub. It's that easy.

No matter how you like to control your sound, the RP500 has a solution for you.

Versatility
Every guitar player is different from their core tone, how they achieve it, and how they control it on stage. Whether you get your tone from your amp and just need a few effects or get your tone from a single box the RP500 has the sounds and control over them that you need. Unlike multi-effects that take over your tone and limit your control, the RP500 is an effect switching system over internal stompboxes, effects, and amps. Control your tones in Preset or Pedalboard mode. The Preset mode allows you to switch between saved presets and can drastically differ from one to another. The Pedalboard mode allows you to turn on an off individual effects and stompboxes with ease within a preset.

To top it off, the unique Amp/Cabinet Bypass mode defeats internal amplifiers and cabinets in the RP500 leaving you with just stompboxes and effects. Your RP500 is now the perfect collection of stompboxes and effects with unprecedented control to use with your distorted or clean amplifier. Augment and spice up your sound any way you'd like and retain the control you need with the RP500.
