iamapirate Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I had you hopes up for a minute! Pirate needs some help again! After seeing this [url="http://www.shotgunnmods.net/shotgunnmods.net/EHX_BMS_Mods.html"]http://www.shotgunnmods.net/shotgunnmods.n...X_BMS_Mods.html[/url] I was wondering if anything is circling the net with DIY for the XO BMS. Mainly I want the mod with the expression pedal. I've got the XO, and I'm really gas'ng for one! I love the tone and the thought of a synthbasswah with that tone is orgasmic! Thanks for any help!

Ruck Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hey there, did you have any luck modding the XO model? Or does anyone on this forum know anyone in the UK who can do it? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also be suprised if there was space inside to actually fit another jack socket, or maybe use a 3.5mm internally and an adaptor on the expression pedal cable. When I get an XO microsynth at some point It's definately going onto the mod bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is about a 20mm gap from the circuit board to the base plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I always prefer working a tighter box myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreapenna Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Hi, I've recently bought a XO version and I'd like to know if any one here in UK has done any mod. This seems to be the only thread on this topic Thanks, Andrea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerific Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 If there's room for adding an extra jack into the case I think I can probably mod the XO to have an expression jack but I wouldn't be able to say for sure without opening one up and having a look.

andreapenna Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Hi, I was thinking about something like this: - internal trim pot moved on the top of the chassis - expression pedal for the stop freq (*) - expression pedal for the trigger (*) (*) with a switch in the plug that allows the slide to work while the pedal is disconnected Edited August 23, 2012 by andreapenna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerific Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 If you fancy sending me your microsynth to have a look at I'll do the mods for cost price if they're possible and if they're not I'll post it back for free (if you're in the UK). It'll have to wait a few weeks though because I'm busy with quite a few builds for various people at the moment. Drop me a PM if you're interested.
