View DigiTech RP155, RP250 and RP255 patch tones with this app!

Ever at a jamming studio or a friend's place, and you wanted to play a song, but you couldn't get the tone right? You'd need a computer to open the patch tones... and it would need to be plugged to your multi-effects pedal.

This app lets you view the tone, in similar arrangement to the pedal's layout. You can then dial in the tones and start rocking!

I did this on a whim since I discovered the RP-series patch files were simple, human-readable XML. Other DigiTech RP series multi-effects also use XML, so there is a chance I could support other pedals - email me if you'd like to help! (As I can only open rp255p files with X-Edit, since I only have the RP255.)

RP155 and RP250 patch files can be now be opened, but as a beta - email me if you find that it cannot show certain pedal values.

I hope to support more DigiTech RP multi-effects pedals, so this app's name may change in the future!

If you are having problems opening downloaded patch files from your stock browser, try downloading the patch files with Firefox for Android.

Not supported:
USB Host to connect directly to RP255
Near Field Communication
Android 5.0 upwards (some file permission thing means it won't load any patches)
