Guitar Distortion

How do I set up my Digitech RP200 guitar distortion pedal to play Rockabilly?
I have the Digitech RP200 pedal and want to use it to play rockabilly, does anybody know how to set up the effects to play rockabilly?
I don’t know anything about the Digitech RP200 – though I heard it was sweet! I played rockabilly for years, and all guitarists have their preferences, but here are some of the common sounds that you might want to go for.
1. A mild and somewhat sharp distortion. You’ll want to get a classic, tube sound, that almost sounds clean. The only difference is that the higher strings should have a sort of sharp, and slightly distorted snap to them. This can be achieved by finding a good distortion setting to build off of. Only crank the gain up to maybe 6 and no higher. Turn down the low just a tad before 5. Set the treble for 6 or maybe even higher. If you have a “shape” setting, crank it up pretty high.
On my old amp I had almost everything set on 6. You want all of the tones to be even, and not too much low sound.
2. Reverb. The choice amount is up to you. I never used to use too much, but you’ll probably want as much as any blues guitarist would use.
3. Techniques. Rockabilly techniques like the approach to finger picking are what really creates most of the sound.
