With stompboxes, the order in which they are connected affects the overall sound. The RP355 has placed the Amp and Effect models in an order for optimum results. The following diagram shows the order in which they are connected. Pickup Simulator Wah Compressor Whammy/ Chorus/FX (Pre) Distortion Amp Modeling EQ Cabinet Model Noise Gate Volume Pedal Pre Chorus/FX (Post) Delay Reverb Volume Pedal Post Model Definitions Each Amp and Effect model within the RP355 can be programmed to suit your personal taste and application. Understanding how these components alter the sound, and how each parameter alters the effect, will help you achieve the sound you are looking for. The following overview of the RP355's effects outlines what each effect and parameter does. Pickup The Pickup Simulator provides the thick tone of a humbucker pickup to a guitar with single coil pickups, or the bright, edgy sound of a single coil pickup to a guitar with a humbucker. This gives you the best of both worlds without having to change guitars during a performance. Values include: SC>Hb (gives a single coil pickup the warm tone of a humbucker), and Hb>SC (gives a humbucker the unique sound of a single coil).
