ting of 30 will provide approximately a unity gain signal in your system).

Section Two - Editing Functions
Preset Mode and Pedalboard Mode
There are two different ways to use the footswitches with the presets: Preset Mode and Pedal-
board Mode. Push the Pedalboard button (just to the right of the knobs below the Display) to
toggle between these two modes.
Preset Mode
In Preset mode, each of the 10 numbered footswitches loads a preset, and you can’t turn
individual models on or off with the footswitches. The Up/Down footswitches select banks
of 10 presets.
Pedalboard Mode
In Pedalboard mode, footswitches 1-5 select presets, and footswitches 6-10 act like pedals
on a pedalboard. That means you can turn the distortion, chorus, etc. on and off within each
preset. The first time you power up the RP1000 when you take it out of the box (or after
doing a factory restore), it’s in Pedalboard mode.
The RP1000 remembers which mode you’re in when you turn it off, and keeps it in that mode
when you turn it back on.
