Salt on your Bass? Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I understand you can use any MIDI-compatible pedal with this - guess its down to what type you prefer! Sorry, I cant make any recommednation - I used to own this head but didnt use that facility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]+1. I've never wanted for the lack of a pedal, it's not all that difficult to scroll through presets between songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shabbs Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 Looking for a simple / basic pedal to scroll through the presets, when I search for midi compatable pedal I'm swamped with everything from £40 - £400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I have the ART X-11 Midi foot controller. I dont use it anymore, as i've moved from the Nightbass to a BP8, so i'd be happy to sell it on if you're interested [IMG]http://i47.tinypic.com/aemjbb.jpg[/IMG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shabbs Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Just not sure what I'm looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7tenths Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Not sure what would work, or, seeing as MIDI is a cross-platform protocol 'anything' would work....anyway, I'm looking for a similar device Anyone have one they want to shift? Anyone used one and willing to share their thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I have a Rolls MP80, yours for £35 + shipping. [url="http://www.rolls.com/pdf/M_MP80.pdf"]http://www.rolls.com/pdf/M_MP80.pdf[/url] I never got round to using it with the Superfly or the Superduperfly. Can't remember whether the Superfly will phantom-power it - if not, IIRC it uses a typical 9V effects pedal power supply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Thinking further on it, does the Superfly take MIDI through the USB port? It's so long since I had mine that I've forgotten. If so, you don't need the MIDIsport, just one of these [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-MICRO-UB-DEVICES-SAMSUNG-S5-99P-PRICE-MICRO-USB-TO-USB-OTG-CABLE-/131468881164"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-MICRO-UB-DEVICES-SAMSUNG-S5-99P-PRICE-MICRO-USB-TO-USB-OTG-CABLE-/131468881164[/url] and your USB lead and MIDI Commander.

7tenths Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 It's a standard USB as you would find on a printer and the like. Sadly, only the MIDI port supports MIDI commands...according to the manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Ah, the memory of that USB port is starting to come back to me - didn't seem to be a proper USB implementation, I was never able to make it work through a hub (may have been a rubbish hub, if course).
