    Setting Initial Value of FC12 Expression Pedal Controller at Scene/Channel Level?

    I may be wrong, but there may be ways to accomplish something like that? We would need very specific info on it's implementation, and at least one sample preset to see for ourselves what parameter/parameters are being used, and how. With the new 'gapless switching', is just saving each 'scene'...

    FRFR General N00b Questions

    I have some stand-in gigs with a different band. My regular gigs are all direct, Guitar, Bass, Triggered Drums (Superior Drummer 3), and occasional backing tracks. So I just got the Fender FR-10, and used it this past weekend. It kept up with a pretty loud drummer. Although my Fractal, and...

    Per Preset Override?

    For reference. I this case. the Expression Pedal is attached to a parameter in the Synth block. Lots of ways to get where you want. A 'Per-Preset Override' momentary Control Switch is valid.
  5. Moke

    Per Preset Override?

    Depends on the preset. I use an expression pedal for my preset. Or a scene, and/or a momentary Control Switch (AX8), on one of the 'no controllers' versions.

    Per Preset Override?

    I like using an expression pedal.

    Wish Looper input bypass control.

    A couple options.. Turn the 'Dry Level' parameter down to '0'. Place a low-CPU block (Filter, Vol/Pan, GEQ, etc..) in front of the Looper, set that block's bypass type to 'Mute', bypass it in the scenes that you want to kill the input to the Looper.

    It looks like your Ax-Fx II is running firmware Quantum 10.01. There are 2 newer firmware versions available, Ares 1 and 2. But updating will change the sound of your presets.

    There isn't a way to do this with a single scale, custom or factory. There are a few notes that are played more than one time throughout the piece.

    IIRC the FM units can only connect to one device at a time. I have never really messed with Cab Lab. If you have the editor connected, can you also connect to Cab Lab at the same time?

    Can you run 2 seperate signal chains through the FM3, sharing 1 cab?

    Also, If you want to have two separate isolated outputs, you will need to add Out 2. And add blocks for each path, if CPU allows. There are ways to share some stereo blocks and still stay isolated, but it gets a little tricky.
  16. Moke

    Can you run 2 seperate signal chains through the FM3, sharing 1 cab?

    That's pretty much what I do. Although I switched to using a sine-sweep with the 'Averaging Time' parameter maxed out. It seems to yield more accurate results? I have a bunch of extra blocks on the reference path so that I can bake-in any other EQs. Just note that any exported IR will go...

    You are correct. It doesn't work like the other blocks. 'Copy & Paste' and the 'Block Library' treat the Output blocks differently. Not sure if it intentional, or an oversite/bug? The process is 'instance' specific. None of the other blocks are?

    Options for Synth block Freq to Pedal 1

    IMHO, it would be more consistent using one of the controllers triggered via a switch or scene, etc., instead of an expression pedal. If the expression pedal is preferred, use a good amount of damping to set the desired time of the pitch drop and just use the pedal as a switch.
