Kiwi Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Really curious about the tracking - having already played the IR model when they were being put together by local boutique luthier Charles Cilia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itu Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Only tried different sounds, this unit already sings. Very good tracking. Smaller and lighter package is a nice touch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybassdoyle Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I have to say @GisserD, the compact housing is a work of art. I'm kinda used to seeing mine on the board but noticing this thread has reminded me how cool it really is! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I need a new Midi interface to mess with this. M Audio decided to not update drivers for my old one. How I laughed. Is the Roland UM One still the one of choice? Does it work on Mac OS 10.15.3 Catalina? The drivers seem to have stopped at 10.11 Anyone with any 1st hand experience? TIA.

UM-One MK 2 Goes to 10.15: https://www.roland.com/global/support/by_product/um-one_mk2/updates_drivers/e1812bfc-104a-4a18-a1db-b07980c0732c/ Still the interface of choice. I think Zsolt who writes the editor is using one. Edited February 24, 2020 by Quatschmacher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 If it is good enough for Zslot then it is good enough for me. I did look at the Roland page and only found up to 10.11. My wife recognises this behaviour. Thanks Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SICbass Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Hi there, sorry I didn’t respond sooner, I’ve only just seen this. I’m using (hack - spits in a bucket ptuh! What a piece of stinky poo ) Catalina 10.15.3 for my pains. Sometimes stuff works, sometimes not. Unfortunately I don’t know if that’s due to my UMone. There is a driver update for the interface which did help matters, but life since Catalina is fraught with issues all over my computer.

If that’s not up to date then it could cause problems with the FI update. (Not Having updated the UM-One driver was the reason @SICbass and I couldn’t get his FI to update on his Mac.)

How I laughed. MAudio stopped supporting my Mbox II some time ago. I was infuriated that a perfectly good piece of hardware could be rendered obsolete so arbitrarily. I resolved to never spend more than the absolute minimum on an interface again. I hope the same hasnt happened to my MAudio Delta 1010 but suspect it may have, which would be another damn waste.

Owen Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Last update for the 8Pre-FW is 2008. "The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information.". It works fine as an audio interface with Catalina and I am only borrowing it while I wait for the SSL 2 to actually be available. This should be within the week so it is not big deal. The SSL 2+ will be not very much more than a SSL 2 and a Roland UM-One but the 2+ has MIDI ports so I will prob go for one of those. It is beyond comprehension that they will not have proper Catalina drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reesource Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I had a plan. But I think I've realised it's silly. I am definitely rehousing the FI in a compact enclosure. That's a no-brainer for saving space on my board. Then I was going to leave the FI activated, and use a line selector pedal to route signal through the FI when I wanted the effect, because I don't want to accidentlaly step on the rotary encoder. Plus I was going to make a homemade Arduino box with program down and program up footswitches (MIDI CC 67 and 88). BUT it's just occurred to me that I could get rid of the line selector, and instead put an extra footswitch on my homemade unit to switch the FI on and off (MIDI CC 69). Then I may as well add a 4th footswitch in case I want to make it to do something else for a specific program. I know that @Quatschmacher will try again to persuade me to get a Morningstar MC6 but I think I'm happy with my plan for now. Can anybody see any flaws in this plan or does it make sense?

Quatschmacher Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) Here are five patches I intended to share for free but there seems to be a problem with the database site - either my permissions are blocked or there is a wider problem. Could someone please check if the "add new" button is visible and let me know. @GisserD, @lee650, @SICbass Edited March 3, 2020 by Quatschmacher 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 The SSL2+ works as a MIDI interface. The MOTU 8 pre might as well. I think I had a duff MIDI lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICbass Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 @Quatschmacher I'm afraid I'm not able to check at the moment because my pedal is semi-permanently installed at the show where I work. If I took it with me my colleagues would be a bit knackered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
