After several months of waiting, the Iron Ether Subterranea has finally arrived. Described by Taylor at Iron Ether as a, ‘multi-timbral analog synthesizer and octave pedal’ it acts as an oscillator section for a great analogue synth setup when paired with an envelope filter. These were discontinued a few years ago but recently brought back for a limited production run. Hopefully they’ll be added back to the regular production line. It’s a great analogue synth pedal. https://on.soundcloud.com/CpmKMabzrIOQzEnS99 https://on.soundcloud.com/U5G8C0THhHiAINPoEz https://on.soundcloud.com/HmamFI3dmsihHflhpM https://on.soundcloud.com/aEdvwY6QUt0qnNTR8M

I can confirm this. The Enzo X was a missed opportunity for them to actually take some of the bass market; which is admittedly minuscule compared to the guitar market but…

Hmmmm, not very friendly. I regret sharing the video in the first place if this person is only interested in selling their preset pack.

Whoops. Sorry! I should say great to hear more demos of people playing the FI on keys…for over two hours.

Great to hear someone using the latest FI on keys.

It arrived today. Initial impressions after ten minutes of knob twiddling and preset switching. This is good. This is very, very good.

I think it is just one way on the actual pedal itself but I’m not certain! It does seem like an external switcher can bank up and down between presets. It’s like the C4 in that respect. The MXR video manual demos up and down banking pretty well. The manual also says that any open (momentary) switch will work so I wonder if a two button switcher will allow up and down preset changes without having to long press like in the video.

Great point. The Old Blood Noise Expression Ramper would work perfectly for this application. It has a one shot mode to instantly jump between values and stay there. I don’t use mine in this way but should work well for this kind of application. I use it for big slow filter sweeps that aren’t possible using a manual expression pedal. My MXR Synth should be arriving today. I can post a clip of it using the OBN Ramper to demo both of the above if there is interest.
