Ripper2000 is a PC based editor for the Digitech RP2000 guitar processor.

The program interfaces with the RP through the MIDI ports and allows 
changing of parameters, upload and download of patch data and System Exclusive
dumps.

========================================================================

Requirements:

Windows 95/98/2000
Minimum Pentium 133.
        Memory ??

MIDI Interface - In and Out.

Digitech RP2000 (duh)

========================================================================

Getting Started.

1. Plug everything in.  
    MIDI Out from PC to MIDI In on RP.
    MIDI Out from RP to MIDI In on PC.

2. Run Ripper2000.

3. On first run, it will indicate that the MIDI ports need to be setup.
    Goto Tools->Setup and select your MIDI ports.  They will probably 
    be the same for in and out.

4. If you want the program to send Continuous Controller (CC) commands,
   select Send CC under the Tools menu.  You need to set this EVERY time
   the program starts.

5. Push the buttons, change the values, have fun.

6. Read the Help (when I get around to it.)
