  1. Axiom Air 49 here. Good quality. Works pretty good with Logic. Has transport controls which are useful. Logic occasionally deletes its .bundle in the MIDI devices folder, which is odd. It still works, but I lose the HyperControl functionality, and have to drag a copy of the .bundle back to the folder.
  2. Good work fixing the B3. I had a similar issue with an old G21.U. When I took it apart, the little buttons were all on the same plastic moulding, and it had snapped in a couple of places. A dab of superglue to weld the breaks, and all was well. The buttons on my G3 (same chassis as B3) are still good. Looking inside my Zoom units reveals pretty good build quality for the money, I think. Btw, what device do you use to measure the power consumption?
  3. Yup, I understand. I will do nothing until I am absolutely sure. Thanks for your help.
  4. I think I’ve got one of these! In a drawer. Thanks, Al, you da man.
  5. A current doubler, eh? Where might I obtain such an item?
  6. Thanks, everyone for your valuable contributions. The Joyo device looks interesting, and might be worth a punt. I’ve never seen anything like that before I am really not good on any aspect of elecktrickery, so bear with me. Al, your suggestion is interesting but puzzling. I thought if I used a doubler as I think you describe, then surely that also put 18 volts into the Zoom? Can you illuminate my darkness?
  7. Yes, your experience is like mine, then. It doesn’t seem to like being used in conjunction with ANY other digital device. Really annoying, because otherwise it’s a great unit.
  8. Hey there hepcats Does anyone know how many amps the B3n actually draws? I ask because I have tried various power bricks, isolated and non isolated, in an effort to tame the digital whine it gives off if used with other pedals. Currently I provide it with a separate wall wart, which works well, but means an extra power cable and clutter. I also have a Harley Benton Powerbank, but the Zoom whines like a mofo when powered by it. I am hankering after the T Rex Chameleon advertised on BC, but I am concerned that the individual outputs of 300mA will not be sufficient. Can anyone advise? Al Krow, do you know about this? Any words of wisdom will be much appreciated.
  9. But but but I like the sand dune that changes from day to night. Although I don't have it as my desktop. In any case my Apogee Duet works fine under 10.14.1.
  10. No joy with that then, I assume! Have you tried renewing permissions, or resetting SMC by turning the Mac off, pulling out mains plug, waiting for 10 seconds or other magic interval, replugging and finally switching on?

  12. Check with Roland re Mojave compatibility, or look in App Store updates to see if anything has flagged up re the Roland.
  13. CleanMyMac seems to be kosher. I just downloaded the current version of Reaper, and it recognises my Apogee Duet okay. I am stumped, sorry I can't help. Have you tried Roland?
  14. Me neithers, but if it helps you to diagnose your issue...
  15. Do you have GarageBand installed on your Mac? If so, does the Roland show the same behaviour?
  16. Ah, you’re still living up there! And fae Fife. I’m trying to forget about Paisley myself. Not the toun it once was, sadly. That steel players meet sounds good. But maybe not if they’re all playing at once.. Do you by any chance know Freddy Mail (spelling?), who used to work in McCormacks waay back in the day? He was a fine guitar player who switched to pedal steel. I think he was in a band called Nickelson. I agree about Walter Becker and sticking to bass, his soling in SD got old very quickly. Shame. I'm getting into looping, hence my interest in bass to MIDI. Got a solo gig coming up and I’m nervous about sounding one dimensional using just bass! But guitar sounds so weedy to my ears now. Back to the woodshed!
  17. Future owner must have a big belly...
