Just found this yesterday on the Zoom site - it should make a great pedal even better
V2.0 firmware update now available

https://www.zoom.co.jp/products/multistomp/zoom-ms-60b-multistomp-bass-pedal#downloads

Adds 84 new effects including a load of amp models
Heres the new list - the ones with blue stars next to them are the new ones

I just did the update without any issues - although be aware you need to turn the power off whilst you do the update - and it seems to preserve all your old patches without a problem

Off to have a noodle now........

Before I try this, does it keep your presets still, or will I have to write down settings first?

It kept all my presets and just added a bunch of new effects and amps in
Takes about a minute to set up and download everything - simples :-)

Re anything exciting, I've just had a bit of a potter about with it. Theres GK, Ampeg B15, Eden, SWR and a few more amp sims. Some analog flanger and chorus stuff and a bunch of new modulation effects. Also a nice Studio Compressor. And a ton of other things that i haven't looked at yet. Added 84 new effects i believe to the existing 54 - but i haven't counted....

Thanks for the heads up, I've just updated mine and it takes about 10 seconds.
None of my presets were overwritten and there looks to be a ton of new stuff to play with too :)

The bypass is pretty good on mine - and I'm notoriously fussy..

Do you hear any difference between v1 and v2?
Strangely I think the tuner bypass is better than the effect off bypass...:)

Alot of extra verbs and delays.. which are cool but not necessarily going to be used on bass (personally speaking) however this could easily now be used on a guitar board as the 'delay' pedal. lots of options. A few new preamps.... I'me sure the fliptop was on the b3 which was my favourite whilst i had it.

I love getting a firmware, it pretty much feels like a new pedal now! Cheers zoom!



By the way... I managed to get it installed from an xp pc. the little bit of software didnt see it as an ms60b but i still tried it and it worked fine.
