Getting Around In the Operating System
The menu structure of your RP-20 Valve has been specially designed to be easy to use. The display shows the information you need, but to
make things even easier for you, illumination of the front panel buttons offers additional operating information.
The front panel buttons give you information in one of two ways:
1 - If the button is dim, its function is inactive. Pressing a dim button causes it to light brightly and its function becomes the active item in
the display. If the dim button doesn’t light after you press it, the button is unavailable.
2 - If the button is bright, its function is active.
Program Mode
Program mode allows you to scroll through the Factory and User programs using the <Data> wheel. When your RP-20 Valve is turned on, it
sets itself to Program mode. Program mode is active when the <Program> button is lit and a Program name is present on the information
line (top line) of the display.
FX Edit Mode
This mode allows you to edit:
1. Digitally controlled Analog Wah
2. Compressor
3. Distortion Types
4. Noise Gate
5. Selecting Effect Configurations
6. FX Modules
7. Output Mode of your Programs
Use either the <Preamp> or <Effects> buttons to enter the FX Edit mode.
A helpful hint: If you look at the Effect Routing Matrix while you press the FX <Preamp> or <Effects> button, the currently selected
module will flash.
Your RP-20 Valve uses “Pages” to navigate within an effect. A “Page” is a group of up to four effect parameters that appear on the screen at one
time. Use the <Next Page > or <Previous Page> buttons to move through the pages in the menu. Note that as you scroll through the
pages, the page indicator in the lower left corner of the display changes to show the currently displayed page number.
Utility Mode
From the initial power-up of the unit, access to all of the menu pages of the utility mode can be made by simply pressing the <Utility>
button located on the front panel of the unit. From this point, the display will tell you that you are in the Utility mode and you can scroll
through the options by turning the <Next Page > or <Previous Page> pages buttons.
Assign Mode
Once the RP-20 Valve is in assign mode, all modifier assignments can be made. This assign mode gives you the ability to assign dynamic
modifiers, foot switches and the expression pedal to almost any parameter in the RP-20 Valve. Access to this function is located on the front
panel <Assign> button or in the utilities pages within the RP-20 Valve. For more information on assignments, please see page 51.
