    They (Digitech) should really consider reissuing the Space Station. Or all of them. Or a 4-in-1. Prolly wouldn't be "the same". But still.

    I forever regret selling my Space station. I bought one back in the early 2000's and did some of my first recordings with it on bass, what a great pedal. Digitech does make a pedal named the EX-7 expression factory which basically has a lot of the features of the older digitechs, I've never used one but they're still available abd look like a wah wah

    I bought one of these when they were originally in stores. I hated the power supply for so many years and eventually just started using the Line6 power supplies that they make for the POD, it's called a PX4G? That one is totally built with nice thick road-worthy wires and puts out the same AC voltage. Works for the newer RP500 too.

    I have an oooold RP-5 guitar processor pedal board that has the whammy function but its response time is lagy, you have to anticipate what you want to do with the expression pedal in order for it to be on time.
    Do the RP-200 300 and so on have that problem?
