Hi, could anyone who has one of these (or a Japanese reissue) please accurately tell me how tall the letter I is in the decal in mm from top edge to bottom edge? I’m getting a spoof decal made for my Shuker build and need to know what scale it should be printed at. Thanks in anticipation.

Was a great gig. Shame the ticket went to waste. -
@Al Krow?

@Owen?

My friend isn’t feeling well so I have a spare ticket for tonight if anyone fancies buying it. Show starts at 8pm. PM me if interested. Otherwise I guess I might have to see of they can resell it.

I’m not employed by them. I originally got involved in the v3 development as a volunteer beta tester but then ended up having a huge development contribution to the firmware as they took on board most of the ideas I came up with. Lots of the cool new feature ideas, improvements and refinements in the pedal and the editor are things I thought of. Back in the day it was me who kept pestering Andras to implement full ADSRs in the FI and my badgering paid off; it also helped in finally getting better patch management, which Zsolt and I did for v3.60. I’ve been heavily involved in everything since v3.00 and have written all the manuals since then. (I also did beta testing and development for the 4Control.) So yes, I’m a big fan. I do similar stuff for Source Audio and Morningstar.

OK, I am beyond excited about this!
-
Please do, I put a lot of love into it.

Will the MM pickup be going in the proper Stingray position?
-
Thanks. Was actually fun to listen to some of my old C4 clips; I got some mad sounds out of it and plenty of useable ones.

You can buy the MC6 in the UK: https://thorpyfx.com/collections/morningstar-engineering Also, it’s an investment if you end up getting more MIDI-capable pedals. Personally I’d go with the Morningstar as it opens up a lot more potential in the pedal than the midiBeam can. You could pick up a used MC6 or MC3.

Lots of C4 clips and FI clips on my Soundcloud.
-
Yes. All detailed in the manual. It represents the data of that parameter - it switches on and off between positions.
-
A far superior pedal in every way to the Deep Impact, and with all 9 of its original sounds.
-
Not done a video clip but there’s an audio clip with the preset file on the Source Audio Neuro website/app.

I don’t think they have even managed one or two basses per year!

It’s money well spent.

It’s reasonably straightforward. You can make it as simple or as complex as you like, depending on what you want it to do. For instance, I spent time figuring out settings on the FI which let me use the MC6 to play 5-note chords on the FI by sending out pitch offsets per button. There’s enough there to achieve many things. The text on the display is user-definable. Each preset has two toggle positions and messages can be triggered from either position or both positions. There is also a toggle shift state so a third option to send messages from. Check Morningstar’s YouTube channel for tip videos. Midium is also capable of this stuff and much more but is more expensive.

The MC6 is really flexible and you can pretty much use it in whatever way you want. You could use buttons to skip up and down patches in whatever increment you like. You can assign single patches to a button - even multiple single patches which could be switched between via different button press actions (tap, double-tap, long press). You could have a single button scroll through a list of single patches populated by whatever you like. You have two expression pedals but you can change what each expression pedal controls by programming message changes to a button or several buttons. You get the idea…

There are a few solutions to this; here’s one: Create a blank bank template in the Manager, then populate it with patches from the cloud that you want to edit using the Global directory (either double-click the name or select and “send to bank”). Double click a tile in the Manager to load it into the buffer. Then switch to the editor to make the edits. Rinse and repeat. Then when you’ve finished editing all your patches, click “upload to FI” in the Manager to write all the patches. You can do this with a single patch too and select a single tile to upload.

The Roland cable is only for communication with the computer so no expression. MidiBeam works as a full interface (editor communication and firmware updates) with the computer and lets you have expression or footswitch on each of the two jacks. To be honest, something like a Morningstar MC3/6/8 would give you more functionality as regards expression and external switches. Also, as mentioned, it'll function as an interface for editor communication. It won’t do firmware updates but there really aren’t likely to be any more (possibly one, I’m running a beta firmware that has a small bug fix for when triggering from a keyboard but unless I find anything else broken, there’s not much room for improvement). Yes, most of the FI patches out there are ones I created (bar the original Talkbass patches from other users). No need to download them as such as they are all accessible within the cloud part of the editor, though it doesn’t hurt to have a backup on your computer.
-
There aren’t likely to be that many more updates to be honest. I’ve got a beta v3.61 running on mine and haven’t found anything else in need of fixing as yet.

At times I’m not even sure they are still in business.
