About the RP2000

The Presets

Presets are numbered locations of programmed sounds which reside in the RP2000. Presets can be recalled with the
Footswitches or the Data Wheel.The RP2000 comes with 64 Factory and 64 User Presets available.The Factory
Presets will not allow you to store any changes to them.The User Presets are locations where your creations may be
stored. From the factory, the 64 User Presets are exact duplicates of the 64 Factory Presets.This allows you to make
your own Presets without the worry of losing any of the sounds that the RP2000 came with.
When you select a Preset, the name of the Preset will be shown in the green section of the Display and the number of
the Preset will be shown in the red section of the Display. An LED to the right of the Display will light to indicate
whether you are in a User Preset or a Factory Preset.

Performance Mode

When you first apply power to the RP2000, it will power up in Performance mode. Performance mode is the mode
used while you are performing. From Performance mode, you have access to all of the Presets within the RP2000 with
your choice of using either Preset Mode or FX Mode.

Preset Mode

While in Preset mode, the Numeric Display will show the currently selected Preset's name and number. The
horizontal LEDs on the Matrix will indicate the Effects which are active in the Preset. In Preset mode, the 1-4
Footswitches will call up different User Presets.The Data Wheel must be used to access Factory Presets.

FX Mode

FX Mode is another mode of operation which can be used during a performance.The only difference between
Preset Mode and FX Mode is in the functions of the 1-4 footswitches. In FX Mode, footswitches 1-4 will turn
on and off specific effects within the currently selected Preset, much the same as if you were using individual
stomp box type effects.The FX Mode button (located to the right of the Data Wheel) is used to switch
between Preset and FX Modes.When the button is lit, the FX mode is active.

The Footswitches

The RP2000 has 6 footswitches which can perform different functions.These functions are permanently assigned and
cannot be reconfigured (except for the Control switch). In Preset Mode, Footswitches 1-4 will select Presets 1-4 in
every User Bank. In FX Mode and Edit Mode, Footswitches 1-4 will will turn effects on or off and change Amp
Channels within a Preset. Depending on which effects are active in the current Preset, these switches may have one or
more LEDs lit, indicating the status of these effects.The Amp Channel Footswitch will light either green or red
indicating whether the green or red Amp Channel is selected. In the Learn-A-Lick Mode, the 1-4 switches will activate
Learn-A-Lick's Stop, Play, Reverse, or Record functions. Pressing and holding the 1 and 2 switches simultaneously will
access the Tuner mode. Pressing and holding the 3 and 4 switches simultaneously will bypass the RP2000.
