Thank you for selecting the ZOOM RFX-2200 (hereafter simply called the "RFX-2200").
The RFX-2200 is a sophisticated digital reverb and multi-effect processor with the following
features and functions.
•Versatile effects and high-quality reverb
The RFX-2200 comes with a full complement of 48 preset effects (8 effects x 6 banks). The
reverb effects alone allow 121 different settings. The convincing sound stage created by the
RFX-2200 far surpasses anything else available in this class.
100 patch memory for immediate use
Up to 100 patches (effect settings) can be stored in the internal memory. Calling up any patch is
quick and easy.
Digital output
The S/PDIF output (with optical and coaxial connectors) allows connection to consumer
equipment with digital input (digital multitrack recorder, MD recorder, DAT recorder or
similar), keeping the signal in the digital domain.
MIC IN connector
The dedicated microphone connector on the front panel comes in handy for creating vocal
effects without having to make cumbersome connections in the rear. Controlling the VOCODER
effect is a snap thanks to this feature.
Built-in tap input
Time-based parameters such as delay time can be entered directly, using the tap input feature.
This makes it easy for example to match the delay time to the tempo of a song.
MIDI based control
Functions such as patch switching, real-time parameter control, and storing of patch data on
external equipment can be performed via a MIDI link.
Please take the time to read this manual carefully so as to get the most out of your RFX-2200 and to
ensure optimum performance and reliability. Retain this manual, the warranty card and all other
documentation for future reference.

This is an example for inserting the RFX-2200 between the
sound source such as a microphone or instrument and a
playback system or multi-track recorder (MTR). A stereo
source should be connected to the INPUT L/MONO and R
jacks. A mono source should be connected to the L/MONO
jack only.
In this example, the balance between original sound and effect
sound is adjusted with the MIX control of the RFX-2200.
When a component with an S/PDIF digital input (such as a
digital multitrack recorder, MD recorder, or DAT recorder) is
used, the connection can be made in the digital domain.
This section shows how to connect the RFX-2200 to the sound source and to the playback system.
This is an example for connecting the RFX-2200 to the
send/return jacks of a mixer or multi-track recorder. Connect
the send jack of the mixer or MTR to the INPUT L/MONO
jack of the RFX-2200, and connect the OUTPUT L/R jacks of
the RFX-2200 to the return jacks (or the stereo line input
jacks) of the mixer or MTR.
When a component with an S/PDIF digital input (such as a
digital multitrack recorder, MD recorder, or DAT recorder) is
used, the connection can be made in the digital domain.
In this configuration, the MIX control of the RFX-2200 should
be set so that it outputs only the effect sound, and the balance
between original sound and effect sound should be adjusted at
the mixer or multi-track recorder. If the mixer or multi-track
recorder has a stereo send output, supplying the send signal to
the RFX-2200 in stereo is also possible.
Insert Connection
Send/Return Connection
The RFX-2200 is compatible with international 19-inch rack
standards (EIA, DIN). Because the unit has been designed for
rack installation, it is preferable to operate the unit in this
way, rather than simply placing it on a table or similar. Align
the four screw holes with the rack screw holes and securely
fasten the unit to the rack with screws.
The RFX-2200 uses a metal frame, making
the unit heavier than it might seem at first
glance. While installing the unit in a rack,
carefully support the weight of the unit
until all screws are securely tightened.
Otherwise the unit may drop, possibly
causing injury to persons or damage to
itself or to other equipment.
Do not directly stack the unit on top of
other equipment. Otherwise heat may
lead to a fire risk or cause performance
degradation.
Before installation, always unplug any connecting
cables and the power cable. Otherwise the
equipment or the cables may be damaged.
Make sure that the rack in which the unit is
installed is placed on a firm, solid surface, so that
it cannot shake or topple over. Otherwise there is
a risk of injury to persons or damage to the unit
or to other equipment.

This is a connection example for using the VOCODER effect
from the SFX bank. Plug a mic into the front-panel MIC IN
connector, and connect a synthesizer or other instrument to the
rear-panel INPUT L/MONO jack. You can then use the mic to
vary the envelope (volume change curve) and the sound
character of the VOCODER effect.
If nothing is connected to the MIC IN jack, the signal supplied
to the INPUT L/MONO jack is controlled by the signal
supplied to the INPUT R jack. Verify that the indicator of the
MIC ON/OFF switch is lit. If not, press the switch so that the
indicator comes on.

1. To set the RFX-2200 to the bypass mode,
press the BYPASS key while the unit is in play
mode.
The BYPASS indicator lights up.
The RFX-2200 has two different bypass states, depending
on the effect in the currently selected patch. (For
information on which effects use which bypass type,
please refer to pages 14 - 22.)
WET MUTE
In this condition, only the effect sound is muted and the
original sound is output. The level of the original sound
output depends on the MIX control position. Therefore
there may be a drop in volume or the sound may be
entirely cut off.
DRY THRU
The original sound is output without any processing.
The setting of the MIX control has no effect on the
volume level.
2. To cancel the bypass mode and return the
RFX-2200 to the normal state, press the
BYPASS key once more.

Bypassing the Effects
This section is intended to familiarize you with the basic operation steps of the RFX-2200.
1. Verify that the power cord, sound source, and
playback system are correctly connected to
the RFX-2200.
The INPUT control and OUTPUT control of the RFX-
2200 as well as the volume control of the playback
system should be set to minimum.
2.
Turn on the system in the following order:
sound source
RFX-2200 playback system.
3. While playing the sound source, turn up the
INPUT control of the RFX-2200 to adjust the
input level.
To minimize noise and distortion, the INPUT control
should be set as high as possible without causing the
CLIP LED to light. When using a mic plugged into the
MIC IN connector, set the MIC ON/OFF switch to ON so
that the indicator is lit.
4. Adjust the OUTPUT control and the volume
control of the playback equipment to obtain a
suitable playback volume.
1. Use the VALUE UP/DOWN keys to select the
number of the desired patch.
The VALUE UP key switches to higher patch numbers
and the VALUE DOWN key to lower patch numbers.
2. While playing the instrument or producing
sound from the sound source, switch patches
to check out the resulting sound.
The memory of the RFX-2200 contains 100 stored patches. The display shows the number of the currently selected patch (01,
02,...99, 00). This condition is called the play mode.
To switch patches, proceed as described below. We suggest that you simply try out various patches to see what kind of sound the
unit can produce.
You can temporarily turn effect processing off, so that only the original sound is output. This is useful to quickly check the
change brought about by an effect.
Turn power to the RFX-2200 and peripheral equipment on, and adjust the level.

COMPARE key
Setting Parameters With the Tap Key (Tap Input)
1. Select a patch for which tap input is possible.
Whether tap input is possible or not depends on the effect
selected for that patch (see pages 14 - 22). When a patch
for which tap input is possible is selected, the TAP LED
flashes.
2. Hit the TAP key several times in the desired
interval.
The delay time or rate is set according to the tap interval
and the tap beat parameter set for the respective patch
(see page 12).
3. If desired, store the patch.
The parameter changed by tap input will revert to the
original setting when the patch is switched. To retain the
change, you should therefore store the patch.
The parameter which can be set by tap input is preset
(see pages 14 - 22).
The maximum interval that can be measured by the tap
input function is 2 seconds.
If the tap input interval is outside the setting range for
that parameter, it will be corrected to an acceptable
value.
If a parameter was set by tap input and is then changed
by moving the control knob for that parameter, the
control knob setting will override the tap input.
This function allows you to compare the currently edited sound to the sound before editing.
The RFX-2200 allows input of time-based parameters by tapping the TAP key at the desired intervals. For example, the flanger
modulation speed or delay time can be easily matched to the tempo of a song in this way.
