I needed an amp simulator, mainly for home recording, but also for occasional live work where the FX would be useful. I didn't try out loads of pedals in a shop, but I read reviews and checked them out on you tube and based my decision on that.The RP 155 has great amp models ranging from vintage classics to modern high tech. The effects are high quality from the delays, reverbs, wonderful rotary and vibrato, distortions, compressors etc.I am not a fan of over processed modern sounds, (yes, I'm an old fart), but if that's what you want the RP 155 has them. The 50 presets cover a huge range of sounds and the excellent USB link allows you to change every aspect of each preset and store it in any location. All models and processors are displayed on one page on the PC screen so you can see exactly what you've got and select or deselect and comprehensively adjust any of the 11 items in the effects chain. Important things like amp gain and reverb depth etc etc can be adjusted quickly on the pedal itself.I have played guitar for over 40 years (and then some). I use a 40 plus year old Fender valve amp and Les Paul, Strat and Telecaster guitars. I am fussy about the sound of amps. VERY fussy. I go for subtle distorion and FX. I am not easily satisfied.However, as soon as I plugged in to the RP 155 I loved it. I have recorded several songs on my fairly basic PC studio and I am amazed at how good the guitars sound. It has been easy to set up distinct sounds for the the different guitar parts and I have been inspired by the quality of those sounds. Everytime I finish a part I am really pleased with the result, but really disappointed that I've got to move on to the next part. I just want to keep playing with whatever the current sound is. A big plus is the DI setting which is giving me the best bass guitar sound I've ever recorded.I have used the pedal live plugged into the FX return of a transistor amp and it sounded amazingly good. It could mean no more lugging the valve amp around, so even my back loves the RP 155.Check out the rivals and the others in the Digi Tech range, but I have found the RP 155 to be an excellent unit. It's worth the money just for the vibrato and rotary sounds.

I bought this to replace my ailing RP100 unit. I purchased mine second hand from a local Cash Generator and wasn't that impressed when I got it home and out of the box, save for the drum machine and the ability to modify patches via USB on my PC so I continued to use the RP100 as it seemed some patches I had created on that were nearly impossible to get on the RP155.A week or so later it dawned on me that as it was second hand, I should try a factory reset and all of a sudden I owned a great modelling processor with 99 excellent and distinctive patches - just to clarify, the ones programmed by this unit's previous owner really were awful and offputting.So I love it now, although it is difficult to get exact results as far as duplicating patches from my RP100 goes, there are equivalents available that are just as good.All that aside, this unit feels more robust and hardy than its predecessor, patches are still easy to program - especially so now that it can be done with the click of a mouse - and it sounds great.

Inside the sturdy metal casing of the Digitech RP155 is an AudioDNA2 processor chip which helps this box create 83 different Amps/Cabinets, Stompboxes and Effects; All sounding high quality.I have an ESP Ltd EC-50 guitar and 10W practice amp, if I turn on some multi chorus and tape delay with lexicon hall reverb it makes my substandard amp and £200 guitar sound like they are both worth much more! It has so many different styles packed into one that whether you're into death metal, blues or country this multi processor will be for you. It doesn't have the addition of the tremelo foot pedal like the RP255 but it makes little difference. It makes me want to play guitar much more! You don't need to have a load of pedals and patch cables sprawled out in front of you.To summarize it has:- 23 Amps/acoustic types- 12 Cabinet types- 30 Tones and 30 Effects libraries- 100 presets (50 factory 50 user)- Lexicon reverbs- A 20 second looper- 60 quality drum patterns from it's built in drum machine- 5 seconds of delay- Built in chromatic tuner- 2xUSB ports for many more features and editing on the PC like the X-Edit softwareAnd on a final note that should put everything into perspective.You can buy a single effects pedal called a Digitech Delay, this costs more than this multi processor at £84 and only has 4 seconds delay.This box is just £75 and comes with a handful of 5 second delay pedals built in...
