    Plug in the MS to the PC via USB. Enable “cross MIDI Thru” on the MS. Select the MS as the input and output device in the FI editor. Connect the FI MIDI ports to the MS 5-pin MIDI ports. Works for everything except firmware updates.

    I chickened out. Saving that for a second build if this one hits the spot.

    Nice, you may have got lucky then. Make sure you get yourself a USB-to-MIDI adaptor to get the most out of it; Roland UM-One Mk2 is the one I’d recommend. If you have a Morningstar controller then you can use that an interface to the editor.

    That’s the spirit.

    Yep, the tumbleweed gave me that impression.

    I guess that was too far.

    Well, apparently this will be ready by 6th December. Not holding my breath though.

    FI on sale again at €249: http://pandamidi.com/store/future-impact-v3-bass-guitar-synth

    The bodies were Warmoth parts (though not now standardly). The necks they had custom made so no, they don’t de-fret and dismantle.

    P basses for me. Probably never tried one properly when I first started learning as the Jazz nut was more comfortable in my hands. Took about 20 years before I realised that the sound I loved was something I was getting close to by soloing the front pickup. Still took another few years before I actually made the final connection and bought one. Been on a quest to find ones that have a narrower nut and bought and sold a few of these, finally going down the route of custom ordering a Shuker P (and is near completion), but my current and only bass is now a USA Fender P.

    It’s split fret scanning with piezo note-on detection in the bridge saddles, exactly like the IR. Yeah, the headstock is horrid, more so as it’s being used on a traditional style instrument.
  13. Quatschmacher
    Not the only one. There is another: https://www.rorguitars.com/products/expressiv-midi-bass When I ordered the IR, I could afford it. Sadly, with the amount of time that has now elapsed it’s costing me more each day as I’ve watched the pound’s value plummet. And as regards wait times, they are epic (in the original meaning) and I’m never sure if I’ll ever receive it. Finally got an email reply today after 15 months of abject silence. Apparently my “bass will be ready in 4 weeks”. That would be wonderful if true but I’m certainly not holding my breath. It’s very difficult not to suspect foul play with the way things have been handled.

    @ScottBass86has a wanted ad.

    Another flawless transaction with Keir, with me being the buyer this time. Pedal posted same day that payment was made and arrived in great shape. Many thanks!

    I use Labella normal (long scale) through body versions strung through the body. Plenty of winds left to get 3 full winds on the A peg even after clipping. These are the standard 760-FS-TB not the low-tension set.
  17. Quatschmacher
    The Future Impact, with the C4 a close second. Managed to get the latter to function as a drum machine to when mucking about with its sequencers and creative routing.
  18. Quatschmacher
    Labella do through-body sets of flats (suffix “TB”). Or just top load the normal sets.
  19. Quatschmacher
    I don’t mind the waiting per se; it’s the lack of communication which I find unacceptable.
  20. Quatschmacher
    Nope, still waiting…

    On the OC-2 it was achieved by desoldering the connection to the -2 octave signal. I suspect it may have been done on the Cog by using a lower value resistor.
  22. Quatschmacher
    I think that is true. I then sold it to @CameronJ. Starting to sound like this:
  23. Quatschmacher
    These new ones will be based on the v2 which solved the low output volume “problem” on the octave signal (an inherent flaw of the OC-2).
  24. Quatschmacher
    Dare I say it, I’m not actually gassing for any new pedals at all (though as @admiralchewsays, the Barbanera does sound great and I wouldn’t mind one). Synths, that’s a different matter altogether… I guess I just supersized my GAS.
  25. Quatschmacher
    I’m thrilled for you. My very first octave was a v1 T-16. Can’t wait to get a small T-47.
