Well, I found out I can't use my Digitech RP-255 and run it through the back of my amp. Blackstar Stage 100 Head. When I run it this way the volume is very low. You also cannot plug into the front of the amp, you must go thru the RP-255.  When you take this and run it thru the front of the amp ( Main input) the effects will work and the volume is good and loud. The only problem with that has a hard digital edge to it sound wise.  I guess I am just going to have to get a seperate chorus, Uni-Vibe, Flanger, Ect. and run those thru the effects loop in the back of the amp.

Exactly how were you running the RP255 in your effects loop?

 

Guitar -> Amp Input-> Effects Send -> RP255 -> Effects Return ?

 

Unless I'm mistaken, the RP255 wasn't meant to handle amp's signal post preamp stage. If you just want a myriad of effects (ie. not using the amp modeling), then the Line 6 M9 or M13 would better suit your needs.

Sounds like your correct. Oh well.  I only need a few effect pedals anyway. On my wish list is the Zakk Wylde Black Label Chorus pedal and the Black Label OD. Thanks BRO.
