help with the rp200a!

[DeadSkinMask]

hey, i just recently got a digitech rp200a and i got a sweet distortion out of it, the only thing i cant figure out is how to program the expression pedal to work with wah on my distortion, the only thing i can get it to do is volume control, does anyone know how to get it to work>>........

I don't know exactly where it is on that model (or if it exists) but on my GNX2

1. Press the Effect Select button until EXP assign shows.
2. Press the Status button until EXP shows.
3. Rotate the number 1 knob to the paramater you want the "EXP" pedal for.

Again, that's for a GNX2 but they might be a little similiar.

Good luck.

yeah, thats how i get the volume pedal to work exactly like that, but when i put it on wah it doesnt do anything............lol

The GNX2 has a pressure switch that changes back and forth between volume and effect by pressing the "toe" down slighty (you can actually set the pressure required in the program). I'm not sure if yours works the same.

As I remember this is one of the reasons I got rid of the RP200 (A?). I couldn't get the pedal to do what I wanted, plus it didn't work smoothly. What I did was went out and bought a Dunlop Cry Baby and just recently picked up the RP50 because I needed it for recording, but have used it live. I think it has most of what the RP200 has, I'm sure not everything, but enough to make it worth $60. But...maybe if you go to the Digitech website (sorry I don't have the URL) there is a Sound Community which might be able to help you, plus people post patches which is great!
