About the RP355

Stompbox Footswitch Mode
The RP355 includes a very convenient Stompbox Footswitch mode, where the Up, Down, and
Amp A-B footswitches function as on/off switches for the Distortion, Chorus/FX and Delay ef-
fects. To enable Stompbox Footswitch mode, follow these steps:
From the preset display, press the UP and AMP A-B footswitches simultaneously. The display will
read STOMP briefly indicating Stompbox footswitch mode has been enabled. The DOWN, UP,
and AMP A-B footswitches will now turn Distortion, Chorus/FX, and Delay effects respectively
on and off in the current preset. Note: While Stompbox footswitch mode is active, you cannot
navigate through the RP355's presets, nor can you change the Amp A/B channels in the current
preset.
To exit Stompbox footswitch mode and return to Preset footswitch mode, press the UP and
AMP A-B footswitches simultaneously again. The display will read PRESET briefly indicating
Preset footswitch mode is now active again.

Performance Mode

When you first apply power to the RP355, it powers up in Performance mode. Performance
mode provides access to all of the presets within the RP355 via the Up and Down Foot-
switches. The Amp A/B Footswitch toggles between two amp channels for the selected
preset. Knob 1 selects a tone from the Tone Library, Knob 2 selects an effects chain from the
Effects Library, Knob 3 adjusts the Effects Level, and Knob 4 adjusts the Amp Gain, Knob 5
adjusts the Amp Level, and Knob 6 adjusts the Master Level (volume).
