Digitech RP500 Guitar FX unit

The Digitech RP500 is a powerful multi-effect processor designed specifically for the performing guitarist. Designed for the rigours demanded on stage, the RP500 is built like a tank with a cast metal chassis, 9 heavy-duty metal switches, and metal expression pedal. Stage control is easy with a large 10-character LED display that shows the program or pedal status. XLR and 1/4 inch outputs with ground lift give you the ability to run to your amp and directly into to a mixer. For players who only want effects, the RP500s exclusive Amp/Cabinet Bypass and Pedalboard buttons let you defeat amp and cabinet effects in all presets and let you turn on and off effects just like individual stompboxes. The built-in expression pedal gives you real-time control over effects and parameters such as volume, wah, chorus speed, delay level and much more. For the home studio players, the RP-500 also features USB audio streaming for computer recording. Steinberg Cubase LE4 music production software is also included. X-Edit Editor/Librarian software for both Mac and PC lets you easily program and archive all your sounds via its intuitive user interface. Your sound is king, the control of your sound is imperative. The RP-500 gives you the control to express yourself the way you want – No longer will the lack of control stand in the way of your expression.
