    FC-12 doesn't load defaults after Firmware

    I updated the firmware and have reset the Layouts several times but my FC12 still only shows the 3 switches instead of all 12. The Scenes Layout is ok. How can I get the Preset layout to show the default FC12 Preset layout.

    Firmware update and lost my FC-12 Views

    I can only see the FM3 view of switches when selecting MLM and Presets Scenes etc. On the FC-12 I only have 3 presets at the bottom. How do I restore the views to the FC-12 Defaults?

    Use an external MIDI device to transmit MIDI Clock (as Clock Source) to the MIDI IN of the FX8.

    It was a Band Helper issue. I had to submit a trouble case and they resolved it with a correction on a Midi setting. All is good now. Thank You

    Ideas to subtle WAH in preset

    Going into the Wah block there are quite a few things that can be done to set min's and Max's right withing the setting itself. If you click into the elipse there is a lot you can control. Need to investigate that. There are also controls that can be set to play those automatically using LFO...

    Band Helper Sending Beat Clock to FX8 Doesn't work

    I have Band Helper and it's great in many ways. It changed PC and CC when selecting songs. I use it to dial in my Patches then I use the Scene 1/2 button to add modifications for lead and boost. I also want to sync the tempo to the presets so I can use multiple songs with the same preset and...

    Use an external MIDI device to transmit MIDI Clock (as Clock Source) to the MIDI IN of the FX8.

    I'm connecting a device with a master clock and I want the tempo in the preset to adjust to the time from the Master Clock. I'm using Band Helper and they're using what they call Midi Beat Clock but I can't get it to work. I have to go to both forums to find out what I need to do in both the...

    FX8 relay issue changing amp channel

    In essence you need to use 3 conductors of the 8 pin to behave like the tip to sleeve or ring to sleeve or top and ring to sleeve. Ponder that for a minute.

    FX8 relay issue changing amp channel

    You have to put it into context of what the fx8 needs. Not the other way around. Make your 8 pin din do what the trs to 2 ts left and right do.

    Tip or ring or sleeve. There should be 3 choices. Try one if the other 2 ring or sleeve. One if them should give you the clean selection.

    FX8 relay issue changing amp channel

    Try adding the Relay Position for Clean channel into the other Scene. Every Scene should have a relay setting for the channel you want it to change to.

    Thinking about taking the plunge

    Are you getting rid of the Liquid foot or just the GT8? if so it seems it's integral with Cubase not the GT8. If that's the Case the FX8 can respond to anything the GT8 can respond to. But if you want to get rid of the Liquid Foot as well then you may need to discuss it further with FX Support...

    New MKii, will the noise go away with humbusters?

    Fender single coil use is always noisy. That's the issue with single coil pickups. The Split is putting 2 coils together like a humbucker. If you played a humbucker pickup there would be no noise at all.

    And by the way I did mention that in my original reply.
  33. Bob Marton

    New MKii, will the noise go away with humbusters?

    Yes that can do it. I have a rule when I hook up gear I start with a single outlet then I feed all of my electronics with that outlet using high quality power bars. It goes around the room and feeds all of my amps pedals monitors mains etc. Thus eliminating ground loops. If that doesn't work I...

    FX8 with two amps?

    How do you do this? are you using 4cm? if so what's the routing look like? If not still what'd the routing look like? Is it straight from the Pre Out to the ABY then to the 2 amps? then how do you manage the Post Effects? Sound like a simple answer but sounds also like you're not using the POST...

    New MKii, will the noise go away with humbusters?

    My setup works great with the 4cm method using humbuster cables in the clean. What I found in some cases is that the power could be plugged into different outlets and you need an Ebtech Noise filter in between to stop the hum. If all the ground loops are taken care of your clean channel should...
