There is a patch on the Mess called Onestring which is an arpeggiated sequence based on one note. Its pretty much what Ive been looking for. Just need to deep dive the editing process.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
RichT replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
Well spotted! Another one to add to my post over on the Hofner thread. Although, as we learnt over there, the rules say it doesn't count unless he's played one for the majority of his career.* (*by which reckoning I also have to stop associating Flea, Tim Commerford and Pino with Stingrays 🙄) -

Time out in the open generally helps. Tearing it apart and washing the materials may end poorly...

I’ve managed to stop buying stuff simply because it was a great deal. Now I tend to msg a friend that might appreciate the deal. I’ve been called the expensive friend.

So, do I have a mis-sold item that allows me to request a refund? Or an inexpensive, neat and tidy pedal board to which I can easily retrofit a midi device? Let me sleep on this question...

Yup. Very, very unlikely to be a MIDI pedalboard. Just a typical brand-specific or semi-brand-specific pedal set. Those came with a wide variety of plugs and systems, though I don't remember the specifics. One of mine for example had a 27 pin connector.

Yep - the EMG circuits are comparable to how analog mixers work: buffer / boost weak signals first, then you can mix them with less noise, degradation or signal interaction. The EMG pots are 25kΩ, vs. the 250-500 kΩ used in passive circuits. - Yesterday

Changing/adjusting overly-bright LEDs in pedals?
itu replied to AinsleyWalker's topic in Repairs and Technical
Paint pen, nail lacquer... extra resistor in series with the LED. A trimmer would let you dial in the right amount of light. -
I’ve got an EAE Model FeT and Dagger but I’d still love to build them 🤣 That’s a very handy list, there’s a bunch there which sound really tempting!

The point is that with the buffered mixing you get the sound of individual pickups, not their electrical interaction. No matter in which position the pots are. I see too many variables in hi-Z blend+vol, and the tone on top of that. EMG has a few circuits of which the cheapest are just pots. But their systems include active mixing, too. -

One thing to note about EMG active pickups, the ones with the buffer in the pickup housing, is that the pickup itself can use lower strength rail magnets which means less “pull” on the strings and better sustain. The buffer preamp compensates for the lower signals from the coils. I don’t think they all do that, but I have an active P model in one bass and it’s really good. The system as a whole is not equivalent to the standard passive pickup(s) volume & balance followed by an active EQ - you don’t have the pots affecting the tone.
