i purchased this unit a year ago,and i'm still coming up with new tones,however,out of the box some of the distortion setting were a little brittle,with the 4band eq. tweaked the tones were great.it'll take a min.though.and the wha patch will take some adjusting too much output will cause a horrible crackle out of your amp.also i didn't like the fact that you cant use more than one modulation f/x at a time as with any zoom pedal,and the delay cuts off during patch changing,which is noticable by silence for a sec.other than those mentioned most the patches are great,and the dual output of xlr and 1/4 in. are beautil,the sounds achieved live ran in stereo are second to none,also the ablilty to mix and match amps and cabs makes for some really good original tones,the tube amp modles actually makes my old fender 212 feedback when mic'd properly.as for construction,this thing is built like a tank,very solid grey metal,and amp variation 2amps per setting.programming is very simple,i didn't even need two read the manual,it's pretty straight foward from looking at the front panle.all n all well worth the money,and won't be out dated for years to come,because you can also go on line via usb and tweak or download patches

this pedal also comes with a version of cubase for recording and editing your tones further.i only wish the display was more visual,you have to write down what amp you used with what cabinet,what were your f/x settings and so on,(take a note from zoom and vox)but the dna technology pretty much is spot on for the most part modeling the various f/x pedals and studio f/x

if you can read the front of this f/x unit your more than half way there,it's very simple.editing can be a bit anoying because you have to keep scolling back to some setting to tweak,there should be a comparrison feature.the manaul is a must keep because it list all amp/cab. models plus f/x for ref.

this is a very well made unit,will last for years to come

well worth the money,compaired to units in this price range

i only gave it a five because iv'e never needed it.

as far as sex appeal,it's dark,would be great if you did have color choice

This thing has extraordinary Sounds for Clean as well as Distorted, The clean sounds on presets such as Strumn are great professional sounding patches for recording...amazing coming from a floor unit in this price ange usually you'd have to have a Rackmount to get this type of Quality Preset 23 Greaser has a cut-through lead out of this world other presets such as swell compclean etc. are amazing.

Product could've used a USB Cable The expression pedal is fantastic to me because with foot pressure you can go from Wah to Volume Pedal with ease The only complaints I have about the RP355 is that you cannot use the drum machine with the looper andthe looper only has 20 seconds...but it's a great start I'm sure they'll improve those features going foward.

I've only used the factory presets so far, I haven' tried any personal creations as of yet...seems easy enough to use pretty straight forward.

It seems to be built very well in its metal casing as opposed to someother plastic floor units I've owned

Definitely worth the price, I've seen single function pedals that cost almost twice as much.

I haven't had to use support so far so good!

I'm not attracted to it sexually but it is aesthetically appealing, compact.

I use a low-end electric guitar, paired w/ a decent amp. The sound quality is pretty good live or used in my cpu for recording.

No major complaints. However, I would like there to be an efficient way to record a loop with the drum function on.

With any sort of electronics there is always some learning curve. With that in mind this pedal is very easy to use! There is a methodical, but simple, rhyme and reason to navigating the parameters and getting the sounds you want. The manual is clear and easy to understand.

It's fairly heavy and seems sturdy enough for playing around the house and travelling too. Like most things: if you take care of it it will take care of you. I have only had it for a few months, but I'm not worried about it's longevity.

great value!! But it depends what you want/like. I really like the all-in-one idea of a pedal. It's great for a "hobby" musician playing w/ friends or by yourself. I also think if I were to play more seriously in a band or on a touring basis, that this pedal would be fine to use.
