Clean effects are good, distortions are horribleSep 19, 2010
By MHDarilek
I ordered this pedal expecting something better than what I recieved. Im using a Fender Frontman 65R, and playing this pedal through this amp sounds very digital and shrill.. Maybe Im just a fan for low end growl, but I felt like in any setting you put this pedal on, it is missing something..
I was able to get a couple of decent sounds out of it, but as I stated before, it still leaves something to be desired.
The interface is a pain to work with untill you get used to it and the settings are confusing unless you are sitting with the instruction manual in your hands..
I was hoping to use this pedal to save me from dumping more money into my musical gear by buying a bunch of different pedals.. But, you get what you pay for.. Overall, I was a little disappointed with this pedal. It is better to classify this pedal as a toy, rather than a serious guitar pedal.

UPDATE
So Ive been playing with this pedal for the past few months. Ive decided that I like all of the effects it has to offer EXCEPT for most of the distortions on the pedal (This may also be influenced by my amp, a Fender Frontman 65R). If you play clean, all the effects (tremelo, chorus, delay, etc.) are actually pretty good.. Distortion sounds coming from the pedal do seem digital and are overall horrible (at least on my amp). This pedal actually replaced ALL of my stomp boxes. I find it easier to hook up this one pedal rather than make a whole chain of stomp boxes.
It grows on you..

 Interface is a pain, but you can get some good soundsSep 17, 2010
By C. M. Briggs
I purchased this to replace my recently departed RP-200. (It could take a lot, but not a cat throwing up on it at point blank range.) My economic situation meant I had to settle for the lower priced RP-90 instead of the the 250. (I figured since I already have a way to record on my computer, I didn't need the USB jack.)
I've got to admit, after the ergonomic ease of working with the 200, the interface on RP-90, although no worse than similarly priced products or half a dozen modeling amps, IS A PAIN IN THE NECK. Don't lose the manual. You'll be lost. Heck, download an extra copy. Make copies of the settings page. Tape them to your amp or the bottom side of the pedal.
However, I'm pleased to announce that the actual sound of the pedal, either through headphones or through my Behringer GX212 is pretty good. The hard rock sounds are superlative, of course, but it also does a decent job on vintage "cowpie" and other effects. Actually, I prefer using it as a stomp box right through the Behringer's effects loop because I like the tube virtuizer circuitry on the Behringer. If you want stereo, for "swells" for example, you can bypass the Behringer's amp and plug it directly into the stereo input on the preamp, controlling the sound through your pedal's controls. It's a little more synthetic that way, though.
I should mention that mostly I try to play blues - and for that, I prefer plugging a Samick Royale 1 outfitted with Seymour Duncan Fat Cats directly into the amp and setting it for Tweed clean -- maybe using a little bit of distortion if I'm using my Strat. Rock and roll is more or less of a hobby for me, and so this does the job nicely. Nope. You can't beat a Les Paul plugged directly into a Marshall (simulation.)
No. It's not a REAL Marshall amp or a REAL Fender Bassman. No, they're not genuine BOSS effects. This is, simply, a useful, reasonably priced collection of decent to good effects for people on a budget.

 Possibly the best value in effects pedalsNov 10, 2010
By CH
After some research, I decided upon the DigiTech RP90 for several reasons: 1)digitech quality, 2) I wanted a variety of effects, BUT not so many that it would resemble programing a NASA launch [like so many others out there] just to get the sound I desired, 3) Price at Amazon.com was the best I could find anywhere.
Easy to hook up and operate. Excellent sound quality and much less "digital" sounding than many other pedals in this price point. Overall, its a great compromise between funtionality and cost.

Great pedalOct 17, 2010
By Michael Brennan Pecha
"Brennan"
I have used this pedal for a few years now. As a guitar player in a band, I have found that this pedal is ideal for live performances, especially if you don't like to carry around a ton of pedals all the time. The manual is very clear on the operation of the effects processor which is able to simulate basically any sound that you would like. Therefore I highly recommend this product to anyone who likes to make his or her guitar sound great!

Ok for beginnersMay 25, 2010
By Robert H. Dapp JR.
I ordered this from another site that was having a one day sale for $65.00 (B stock).
It is made of plastic and will not hold up if you are using it for gigging. The effects sound to digital for my likes. This would be Ok for a young student, but I would not recommened this for a seasoned musician.
