A: No, but it will be nearly the same - see the next question please.
Q: Which benefits do I get by installing the 2.40 (RP12 upgrade) firmware in my RP10?
A: By installing the 2.40 firmware you get the following benefits:
First is the introduction of 3 new effects algorithms, giving the RP10 a total now of 36. These new algorithms include 3 new effects: Smooth Whammy, Smooth Pitch, and Harmony. Smooth Whammy is a new Whammy module with increased performance characteristics, creating a much smoother Whammy effect. Smooth Pitch is a single voice diatonic pitch shifting module with significantly improved tracking. And last but not least, Harmony is a single voice Intelligent Pitch Shifting effect, giving RP10 owners true 2-voice harmonizing solo lines. With the addition of new effects, Version 2.40 also improves the existing Wah effect, giving it a more realistic sound and response.
Along with new effects and algorithms, Version 2.40 sports all new presets. These presets are taken directly from Digitech's RP12 effects processor. Version 2.40 presets span several different playing styles ranging from Alternative to Metal to Country to Jazz/Fusion We even included some new presets designed specifically for Bass guitars. These are logically laid out in the RP10's 25 banks, with 2 banks of 5 presets dedicated to each style. Speaking of banks, the user will now have the ability to custom name these banks, a definite. And with the addition of new presets, Version 2.40 increases the RP10's memory to 256 presets, 128 User/128 Factory. 2.40 Upgrade is a must for any RP10 owner.
The new features as summary:
- New Factory Presets
- Increased Memory (128 User/128 Factory presets)
- New effects including Harmonizer, Smooth Pitch Shift, and Smooth Whammy
- Improved Wah Wah
- Improved Tuner
- 3 New Effect Algorithms (36 total)
- Custom Bank names
Q: Will I lose my presets after installing the Legend 2.40 firmware in my RP10?
A: Yes, because after installing you have to execute a hard reset.
If you want to keep them, consider a bulk MIDI dump or individual program dump. (I don't know, though, if patches written on lower firmware versions will seamlessly load back into a RP10 with the latest firmware 2.40). So best is to write down your most important settings on paper.
