Wish External Switch / Exp Pedal :: Status LED On / Off & Percentage Bar Graph on LCD

[William Jordan]

It would be great to have a Status LED On / Off option for other functions than just Bypass and especially for external switches

I have an external dual footswitch hooked to Drive 1 & 2 for clean boost and OD then use the FC12 to increment through A - D channels

No need for bypass cause its a hard input and the tap for fast selection

Along the same lines it would be great to have position data for external expression pedals displayed on the foot controller large LCD during position change,

[ Name Exp1: ||||||||||||||| 75% ]

The upper right corner of the LCD could be used to indicate the external switch status with four numbers

[ 1 2 3 4 ]
[ 1 3 ]
[ 2 ]

Help me out here... Aside from external switches, what switch functions don't have a LED indicator of their status?

Interesting idea... What happens when multiple pedals are adjusting simultaneously? I do this sometimes...

Sounds interesting. +1

There is quite a bit of room on that LCD, should be able to display two pedal status bar graphs in units that they were setup would be the best.

Only display when position changes and if option selected in FC edit that why items like wah that change a lot could be muted

P3: ||||| 250ms P4: |||||||||| 50% fdbk

Couple of additions to the existing FC edit controls and then a new section for the external switches, pedals and LCD features would make it a comprehensive improvement.

Info for the tweakers, plus any improvement welcomed...

Recent updates have reduced cpu utilization significantly hovering around 77%

This wishlist item is for the following master preset used to create a preset for every amp; grouping them into Metal, Blues and Acoustic.

Leveraging the library blocks to dial in each effect offered then easy to load into effect block channels. Used linking for a while but find this more comprehensive and saves tweaks for file backup.

Using expression pedals to sweep & blend chorus 100-0% and flanger 0-100% with mixer; another pedal to sweep & blend from delay 100 - 0% and multi-delay 0-100%. Tap sets the time and frequency

Another style preset uses pedals on delay time & feedback and chorus depth & feedback to facilitate improvisation, Display of those pedal positions on LCD would be excellent.

Also, Sweeping between distortion amp 1 (distortion rhythm / lead channels) and amp 2 (Acoustic / Blues edge of breakup); a 5 - 10% striaght-thru guitar signal captures pick attack / articulation to add back into the distorted tone keeping the edge for shredding & blues riffs

Need Volume pedal display of level value on LCD: [ Vol: ||||| 5 ]

Have three ouputs to three stereo crown amps separating treble / mids & bass, improves effect clarity, and obtains a surround guitar presence:
Out 1: Head phones
Out 2: Surround cabinets for delays mixed with some main signal: 2 cabs of 2 x Celestion F12-x200
Out 3: Main signal with reverb: 2 cabs of 2 x Celestion F12-x200
Out 4: Bass cabs for 7 stirng djent and bass: Looking for some great bass speakers currently using 4 cabs of 1 x10 trace elliot, any suggestions?

I've done A/B testing on the use of parallel branches and this is the conclusion to keep the tone, especially the higher frequencies & harmonics it may have to do with the straight through signal path cause when in series the top end is slightly diminshed.



Just using two scenes:
S1: Rhythm edge of break up
S2: Lead distortion

Sweep blends in amp 2 Acoustic / Blues

I would suggest maybe posting this is a discussion thread rather than the wish post.

Most of what you're talking about isn't very relative to your wish.

One thing to point out is that you have a lot of potential for level increases with all those parallel signal paths...

Also, your Layout seems to have the same settings for Tap and Hold for many of the switches...
