This shows some of what it can do: -
Reduced to £165 posted until Saturday morning only. -
No, in this instance I meant Dan Coggins of Lovetone. If your question is meant to imply that Lovetone ripped off the Mu-Tron I’II, I’d add that the Meatball was far from a straight-up copy as it added lots of extra functionality not present on the Mu-Tron III. (I have also supported Mike Beigel by buying his own later incarnations (QTron, Micro-tron III and IV, and I’ll probably get the latest Mu-Tron III when funds allow).)

Try these too: https://artisanaleffects.com

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…

Seems fairly self-explanatory that they’ve had to announce early due to the Behringer copy. I’ll be happy to support the original maker. (Some Behringer copies are really good (Model D for example) whereas some are really not up to the rigours of heavy use.)

Do sign up for a free account here so that you can access all the cloud-based presets directly in the editor via the Global Directory. https://auraplug.com/fidatabase2/

Most of the global parameters found in the Global Menu are mostly not likely to become per-program, i.e. stuff like MIDI channels, tune base, etc. I have argued on several occasions that it could be useful to have the note-on/off levels be per-program but I’ve always been overruled. I especially find that setting a really low note-on level is great for envelope filter patches where I want maximum sensitivity. Again, if you email them and ask, it may add weight.
-
Yes, per preset. Basically a 4-slot mod matrix. If you read the section on Flexi Controllers it should show you how powerful it is.
-
No problem. I hope you enjoy using the FI once you’ve got your head around it and its idiosyncrasies.
-
As I stated earlier, this is being addressed in the forthcoming update: all global menu parameters will also be accessible via the editor.
-
Yes.

Instrument mode is wholly independent of program. It is possible to play the same program in either mode. (I did suggest the possibility of having something in the editor to log which mode the user wanted to use the patch with in a previous update round, but it was deemed too much work/unnecessary at the time.) (Pre-v4 FIs could switch mode automatically depending on whether audio or MIDI was detected at the input and it’s a feature that is now not present, due to the fact that the MIDI and audio modes now inhabit two separate areas of the memory. I do wonder if there might be code space to add a similar function that can switch between the two quickly. I’ll ask. Instrument mode can’t currently be changed via MIDI command either but I’ve been asking for this for a while. If you email them asking for it, it’ll lend more weight to my argument. Yes, and they are all detailed in the manual. Currently anything in the Global menu and the two Global options on the Parameter dial.

It’s under “MIDI Implemention” in the table of contents funnily enough. 🙂

As always, this stuff is covered in the manual. Manual is under “help” in the editor. Instrument mode is selected via the global menu. Currently this is done on the pedal (but will be possible in the editor in the next version). See the QuickStart part of the manual on how to access this. Envelope follower and VCA/VCF envelope triggering are two entirely separate things: Envelope follower is the voltage from your instrument’s amplitude envelope coming in via the audio input. VCA/VCF envelope triggers are activated as soon as the audio input is above the threshold set by the note-on level parameter on the pedal’s panel. To have them be triggered solely by MIDI note data, you’ll need to put the pedal in either Synth or EWI mode. In those modes the synthesiser pitches will also only be generated by note data. You’ll still be able to send your bass’s audio through the filter via the “INSTR” slider in the VCF Input section.

I haven’t used Mac so can only pass on info from other Mac users. Obviously check the in and out ports are wired up the right way round (it’s astounding how many seasoned MIDI users have fallen at this hurdle). There was a user having a similar issue with another interface not correctly showing. This was the advice: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/future-impact-now-available-was-deep-impact-reissue-interested.1115025/page-375#post-27723015 I would maybe leave the keyboard input blank for now until you’ve troubleshooted the issue (why isn’t it “troubleshot”?). Once the connection is established and you move something in the editor, you should see two horizontal lines in the FI’s display.

Damn this sounds good with my maple/rounds P; I may just try to find a way to keep it.

Origin Effects Bassrig 64 Blackface Mint
Quatschmacher replied to loveboatcaptain's topic in Effects For Sale
@charlietuna -
That’s high praise indeed since I’ve tried four of those and still have and love the first two you mentioned. -
How has this not been snapped up at this price? -
Origin Effects BassRig Ampeg B15 Fliptop recreation
Quatschmacher replied to Quatschmacher's topic in Effects
EQ is independent, unlike the Fender tone stack. They do however influence the drive character as they come before it in the signal path. -
Absolute bargain here. -
Yes, it’s really sweet. This was a collaboration with Christopher Venter of Shoe Pedals I’d keep it if I could, but option paralysis and mounting bills whilst still not having a job says otherwise.
-
Could really do with passing this on as I just forked out for a Bassrig Fifteen and need to recoup some funds. Ironically out of all my preamps, this is the one that works best with my maple/rounds P but I can’t afford to keep everything and I mostly play the one with flats.

Been enjoying this album. Only became aware of her by accident when a CD I bought has one of her albums mistakenly printed on it as opposed to the one I bought.
