Hello GMC-ers!

I have a Digitech RP255 multiefect which I use for practicing and rehearsals. It has built in possibilities to combine pedals, effects, amps etc.
The first thing that I'm having problem with is the sound at rehearsal. When I plug it in into the amp the tone i very lound even if the knob is turned to1. On 2 or higher it is really too loud. The apm is a 100W fender devile. I don't know if the output sgnal is to high and if this can damage the amp? Should I use only the pedal effect and leave the amp modeling out?

The second thing is that I as soon the cymbals kick in my sound completely disappears. I know theat the guitar is a ''middle'' instrument and I really push the middle high up 6-7, the bas is around 0-1 and the treble 0. I also decreased the gain but still I get eaten up somehow and can't hear anything I'm playing. This is really getting frustrating because I just can't solve ti.
So, any advice would be great! biggrin.gif

BR,

Denis

Sounds like you may have it plugged into the pre-amp plug on the amp?
