the analog volume will always be pre-gain, before your amps if you go guitar > ev > fm input.@geetarplayer I was totally hoping it would be something that simple for just basic up/down volume. I really didn't want to get involved in trying to calibrate it so last minute. I think that link you posted is probably going to come in paper form with the EV-1 tomorrow. Because I didn't see that in the manual for the FM9. Thanks for the post!
Not sure if this is the correct thread to ask this question. I was wondering, how can I use an expression pedal connected to the FM9 for MIDI-controlling an external pedal's expression function? E.g. when using a Meris Enzo in the Out3 -> In3 loop I would like to control the Enzo’s expression function (Midi CC#4) within a certain preset or scene.
Thanks in advance!
I'm definitely with you, but I made a mistake with buying an expression pedal. I sat on the fence too long, and even ordered a Boss pedal from Amazon, that I just started a return for. Boss usually makes good stuff, but I think this pedal from them is really cheap, and it uses TS only, not TRS, so in terms of expression, it isn't even compatible with the Fractal.the analog volume will always be pre-gain, before your amps if you go guitar > ev > fm input.
many use volume pedals this way, but it's your only option. expression is much more full-featured and calibration takes less than a minute. just need that TRS cable into the Pedal jack, and assign what you want to that pedal jack in the Modifier menu of that parameter.
I am considering picking up an expression pedal, maybe two if needed. My questions are:
1. Can you use the same expression pedal for both Wah and volume control in different presets or scenes, or do you need two pedals, because each one can only be used for either/or?
2. Is there any reason, other than branding, to pay for the Fractal brand expression pedals? They are twice the price of the other name brands (Boss, Line 6, Korg, Zoom, etc.), which is fine if I actually have a good reason to spend the extra cash.
I am surprised FA does not have the ability to have the VolPan block pedal assignment override the global input volume pedal setting on a per preset basis. Or if not, why wouldn't they have included the VolPan block bypassed in all the factory Presets. As a new owner, I just ran across this issue on setting up VolPan blocks in my presets, but now none of the factory Presets have volume control,so I will have to modify over 500 factory Presets.but the downside is you'll have to set it up in every preset you need it in individually.
