Frank Blank Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Well the Stomp needs a ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ on the packaging. I had no idea that it was capable of speeding up time, I sat down around 11 this morning, plugged it all in and started noodling away setting up my own presets and I looked up, 10 possibly 15 minutes later, and the clock said 16:30!

Frank Blank Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 OK, next questions, does anyone have any flight case, hard case, bag recommendations for the Stomp and, slightly more esoteric, has anyone found a way of mounting this on a stand? I'll have very few presets for live that I can switch between songs, I'll not be using the foot switches live so I'd prefer to have it up on a stand as I sit whilst playing.

dave_bass5 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Sorry, I’m sure this has been asked already, but does anyone know of an extension cable for the PSU that comes with the Stomp? I’m finding the supplied cable a bit short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFRC Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 So yesterday I had a day off and got to sit with the stomp for the first decent amount of time - man that was five hours that went fast! Got a few patches set up for Sunday church. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have done a factory reset, but still no joy. Anything obvious I'm missing? If not, could be a case of taking back to the store under warranty for repair / replacement.

dannybuoy Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 When you say the cables work with other devices, do you mean for data or charging? Some USB cables carry power only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err, weren't you recently bemoaning the fact that you didn't like the Future impact because you didn't want to be tied to a PC for editing??? Editing the Stomp via the pedal interface is a breeze, plus being familiar with it will help when making edits on the fly on a gig. I only HX edit for backing up patches.

Yup, there's only so much headspace in my little Krow brain for PC editing and mine's been allocated to DAW, Stomp, Manta and Aftershock. That's MORE than enough thank you! So any pedals that can deliver what I need without PC editing is a boon. Not missing my FI one bit!! But you may well have gathered that from another thread...😂 ...besides there's PC editing and FI PC editing! You do need a brain the size of minor planet (which fortunately our very own @Quatschmacher has) to develop expertise with the FI. You need to bear in mind the FI is "light years" ahead of it's rivals in synth technology. Edited September 29, 2019 by Al Krow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that - I tried that route by installing a new version of HX Edit onto my laptop and also onto another desktop this morning and no joy. It's just been off-boarded to take back to PMT to see if they have any more luck... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have said it’s the drivers, this happens all the time with my Zoom pedals, but as you have tried a fresh pc then it sounds like it might be the Stomp. Done a hard reset?

Frank Blank Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I have been working with the Stomp for a few days, oddly enough to just get base sounds for both the Godin and the Rob Allen, so trying to achieve good fundamental tones with simple EQ and compression blocks, now I’m experimenting with just a touch of reverb. My main (I won’t say problem) conundrum is one that I have always had and seems to be exacerbated by The Stomp is not knowing where to add/subtract volume. The Godin seems to have quite a normal output level but the Rob Allen has a very ‘hot’ signal. In trying to even up the presets I’ve created for each bass I’m left with a bewildering array of options for volume control. Obviously the bass has its own volume, then each block has gain or level or master, then the Stomp itself has a volume control on the front and then there is a gain on the back of the QSC. I never really knew which should be at which setting when I had a bass straight into an amp with the onboard vol and the amps gain and master so now I have the blocks + pedal vol too I’m even more confused.

I only HX edit for backing up patches. This is how I’ve approached mine. As I do all my editing at home with headphones I need to know exactly where to go once I’m in a band situation, so I’ve avoided using my PC. I have hoked it up once, just to back my patches up. I really wish there was a way of setting defaults for a specific sim, and then have the ability to adjust it across a few patches. I can cut and paste, but it’s quite labours. oh, and I’m sure I’m late to the party but I noticed yesterday that the through signal doesn’t cut out if the power does. That’s pretty cool and a nice safe feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can set each patch level independently. there is a level control at the very right had side of the block window. This is my way of doing it. Assuming your signal level is fine going through the blocks, then that might be a quick way of levelling things up.

Its probably in Edit but I don’t use that, so I’m talking about on the Stomp itself. Scroll to the white circle at the very right hand side of the block window. You have pan and level control for the main outs. You could also try going to the left hand side and adjusting the input impedance if you are using a hot bass. I think that’s what it’s for.

Seems to be the quickest and easiest way to adjust the overall patch level. I’ve also set the master volume knob on my Stomp to only affect the headphone out, so the main outs are fixed at max volume. Gives you one less thing to worry about, especially when the amp/speakers have their own physical volume controls! Also prevents any dire consequences if that volume knob gets knocked in a live situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m really impressed with how well this thing has been thought out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
