Nope.  Save it on your pc then  fiddle away merrily changing everything on the pedal. Then, if you want the original sound back  just  import it from where you stored it in  your  user area on the left of the screen either overwriting or in a new place

EDIT - sorry I meant library not user area. 

Store button allows you to store the patch away from the pedal in your user area.

Possibly my favourite  ever wording in a for sale ad. Oh joy.

Hi Al, it's a covers band. They've been  going for years get lots of gigs, always rebooked. I assume  I've  just hit a weird patch  with them where there has always been something unusual happens which means no one turns up.

I  have nothing to compare it with all I can say is  there are  a ton of preloaded patches and it's extremely unlikely any of them will do exactly what I want so I'll rename and overwrite them in time anyway. If  change anything I want it to stay where I put it not  revert  back to where it was so I like the auto save, far  more annoying if I spent  hours programming a  patch and forgot to save it.

I glossed over question 5 as I didn't want to show my ignorance, not actually understanding what "RHCP - Sir Psycho Sexy" means.

Hi - I too have recently added this excellent pedal to my board. Can't see how to turn off the auto save, it's definitely an option on my ZoomB1 but I must admit I keep it on there anyway as I like it. You have to overwrite the presets there are no empty slots. But  you can download the factory presets if you want to reinstall them the Edit and Share software makes all of this easier. You just sit at your PC and don't end up bending down to mess with the board, you can save and share your created patches with friends or for  future reinstall. It's just easier to use than doing it all on the pedal. Not used Looper or drums sorry. Nor do I know of this Cubase, sorry again.

Check this out -  the dropbox folder is still active, some good stuff there.

Maybe they've all been 'floored' by whatever got to the singer, and the word has spread..? 

...

 Good luck with the next gig. 

Ha - the word is out, plague band in town.

The humble Zoom B3 can yield a few surprisingly decent 80s synth sounds if you mess around with it I've found. This is a patch I use for Whitney's I Wanna Dance With Somebody and anything else that sounds DX7-esque...

It's not the greatest for quick-ish runs as the demo shows towards the end, but the tracking is fine for the most part if you watch your technique and keep your lines steady. That patch could probably use a little octave but I'm maxed out at three slots on the B3...time to look at an MS-60B I think!

 

Don't suppose you'd care to share the patch settings you used to achieve this would you?

...and give yourself some good advice

As I trudged back and forth in the rain humping gear from last night's gig I thought of that scene in Red Dwarf where Rimmer's head from the future pops up from the middle of the table and he attempts to warn his previous self of events yet to come. So I'm me and just starting out on this musical adventure and this gnarly, bald, lived in version of my once beautiful face appears and says

"Whatever you do, no matter how tired you are, unload the gear and put it away before you go to bed."

What nuggets of wisdom have you gleaned from this curious calling of ours?

Curious one last night. One of our singers evidently infected us all at the rehearsal midweek. She's now fine but the rest of the band were coughing and wheezing and generally feeling sh|te. 

We got through the evening but I've now done eight or nine gigs since joining this band and have yet to play to an audience. I've been paid each time and there's always been a plausible reason for the lack of punters but it is bloody strange.

Actually asked the band leader whether they ever played to an audience before I joined and he was curiously non committal. Next week we're at a lively city centre pub so I'll be interested to see if we're avoided again.

Why don't folk who disagree  with the OP just nominate their fave soul singers? That way I might discover someone I'd  previously not  known then this would be an extremely useful thread, which would in turn placate those who think it worth contributing to what they see as a pointless thread.

Okey Dokey sir.

I might ply you with something wet and hot if  the deal happens   

Mmm, wet and hot. My favourite combination.

Controversial topic...I can see this getting heated.

When has an internet discussion based on opinion and individual taste ever been anything other than polite?

*cough*

I know all this is subjective, and Anita Baker was indeed an astonishing artist, but may I humbly nominate Carla Thomas and possibly Koko Taylor? Just if we were to be putting together a top ten...

You have a pm sir.

Whereabouts are you based?

I like the cut of your jib. The gig is Sunday September the 9th not sure of the timings yet but I know it's afternoon. If you don't have a cash buyer by then I  would be happy to take her off your hands.

Close enough to maybe pop over with a Trace Elliott wedge? Perhaps have a pint bought for you, should you be so inclined?

Radnor Arms. 32 Coleshill, Coleshill SN6 7PR

So good they names it twice..

Ha ha - a very good answer. Obviously not somewhere you visit habitually. I have a gig there early September on a Sunday afternoon and I thought it might be in your neck of the womb. Hang on let me check I even have the name right.

Is Coleshill particularly far from your place?

Ooh, I want to try one of these. Wait, Glasgow?? Dammit. Do you have a holiday planned for the West Country any time soon?

When will you be in Bath?

Do you have the bridge and pick up covers?
