Playing in Milan on April 5, Taking the RP360XP
I’m doing a gig in Milan, Italy at Spazio Teatro 89 on April 5 with Ed Abbiatti and his band Lowlands. It’s an all-acoustic show in (I’m told) a big theatre, and it’s going to be recorded and video’d, so there should be some cool…
Digitech’s Tech Support is the Best. I Mean It.
I’ve been pissing and moaning a lot about my RP360XP the last few days. I think it’s only fair to note that the folks at Digitech Tech Support (support@digitech.com) are the best I’ve dealt with just about anywhere. They are unfailingly prompt, polite, to the…
The Digitech RP360 Firmware Update Finally Took–After 6 Tries
I had to power the device down and up again 6 times, with Nexus running on my computer, before the firmware update worked. The first 5 times, the update started, took a few shaky steps into the RP’s flash memory, then shut down. The sixth…
The Digitech RP360 Crashed on a Firmware Update–Will it Come Back?

The Digitech RP360’s Software Still Sucks, But The Front Panel Works
I’ve given up completely on editing the RP360XP via the Nexus software–it’s just impossibly bad crap, and it creates more problems than it solves. Fortunately, it turns out that editing the RP360XP via its front panel works fine. What a surprise. The front panel in…
The Digitech RP360XP Still Sounds Great, and the Software Still Sucks
I spent a few hours converting my RP500 patches to the RP360XP last night, and I discovered another serious design flaw in the Nexus software. This is beginning to look like a trend, huh?
24 hours with the Digitech RP360XP: A+ device, D- Software
I’ve had my Digitech RP360XP, the latest in their RP line, for about a day now, and two things are clear: the box sounds great, and the software for patch configuration and management, to put it bluntly, is plain not good enough.

RP Tip #23: Use the Expression Pedal for SOMETHING
This tip’s message is simple. You’ve got an expression pedal. It makes the RP more expressive (as you might expect from a pedal whose name includes the word “expression”). So use it on every patch to express something.
