Have you posted on TB/the gear page too? Purple is very popular.

Worth asking Tom at Cog to see what he’d charge.

https://www.mu-tron.com/products/micro-tron-iv/ @Bo0tsy, I guess you’ll be buying one of these.

All in the manual, my friend. Read either the section on the boot menu or the FAQs.

Is your FI’s tune base set to 440? If you didn’t reset it after updating to v3, it will be sharp.

The FI accepts only 5-pin MIDI input. An expression pedal has a TRS connector. You need a piece of equipment to choose which MIDI CC message the expression will control and which has a 5-pin MIDI output. A cheap solution is the Source Audio Hub (and a good choice if you have a Source Audio pedal in your setup). Otherwise there are plenty of other choices from Boss, Disaster Area, Line 6, Morningstar etc that will serve your needs. If you don’t need it to be foot controlled, you could simply use an iOS or Android device with a MIDI app and control changes via the touch screen.

What does “one notch” represent in terms of cents on that tuner?
-
That is cool!
-
Probably the cable as some cheaper cables can’t handle large data streams.

What is the accuracy of the other tuners? The FI is accurate to 3 cents (i.e. three hundredths of a semitone) which is plenty accurate. It’s stable for me.
-
What will you be running the expression pedal through? There aren’t that many expression pedals that work as a stand-alone unit.
-
Moog EP-2 or EP-3 works fine.
-
How so? It’s what drives the pitch information for the synth so is pretty accurate. Remember that vibrating strings do vary in pitch depending on how hard they are struck. It’s definitely accurate enough for normal pitch variation in struck strings.
-
Yep. Got it for a good price too.
-
Now get yourself something that can send expression signals to the FI. Cheap solution is a Source Audio Hub. I just picked up a Morningstar MC6 and it’s going to add so much potential.
-
Nice board. The tuner may be redundant as you could use the one built into the FI.

Bump for a lovely bass. I had the pleasure of playing this last night. Not for me though as it’s confirmed that I really prefer rosewood boards. I spent a very sociable evening nerding over basses and pedals with Alex. He’s a lovely, friendly guy and I can say with certainty that whoever buys this bass will have a smooth and hassle-free transaction. -
Perhaps I need to append my second post with a massive RTFM! 🤣

If one updates using the browser it’s almost impossible to overlook this, though amazingly people still manage to do so! 🙄
