London with the Zoom G3
I arrived in London this morning (Sunday 8 June), and I plan to visit the Monday night jam at Ain’t Nothin But the Blues. When I do, I’ll be packing the Zoom G3, as opposed to the Tech 21 Blonde pedal that’s been my go-to…
Coming Soon: the Huntersounds Patch Set for Zoom G3
It’s been a long time coming, and it’s almost here. I will offer my first patch set for a non-Digitech device within the next few weeks: my ultra-cool setup for the Zoom G3.
The Huntersounds RP360 Patch Set Is Getting Close
I’ve been steadily working towards the release of my patch set for the Digitech RP360/RP360XP, and we’re pretty close to go. There will be a few changes in this set versus previous sets:
Digitech RP360XP or RP500? Here’s how I make up my mind
I published most of this post in a response to a question posted in the comments here. I figured that it was worth publishing as a post in its own right. So here are a half dozen things I think about when I’m choosing between…
Playing in Milan on April 5, Taking the RP360XP

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.
