Source Audio Multiwave Bass Dist Preset Question...

matt_bass · #1 09-01-2010, 03:48 AM

Hey guys just a quick one for those of you who have the MWBD Pro... I have searched and cant find an answer, it's not in the manual either.

When you save a preset in a bank does it save the level of the four grey knobs as well as the dist preset and graphic... clean/ dist mix, eq amount and drive knobs?

For instance could preset 1 be a clean/slightly dirty sound and then 2 be a no clean all dirty octave tone?

I assume it can, but would like to confirm before I make a purchase!

Hey Matt,

Check here-
Source Audio Club-

Roger and Will are here on TB and both are deeply involved with Source Audio. Super nice guys and are more then happy to answer all your questions. You will also find several TBer's in that link that own the MWBD and have mastered it in the gig world. I would love to help you out with experience, but I haven't gotten that source audio product yet.... yet

. Best of luck!

Yeah was hoping one of the guys would pop up and let me know. It makes sense it would as you can morph from low to high drive settings.

I'm just hoping I can use one bank for a slightly driven clean blended tone and another for a completely unblended synthier tone for example.

the short answer is YES

when you save a preset, those 4 parameters are also saved, regardless of the positions of the knobs prior to switching. they remain as per the saved preset until a knob is tweaked.

Yes, those presets are saved...in fact when the pedal is in bypass mode, press and hold the footswitch for your desired preset until the Graphic EQ display changes. What you will see is 4 lights representing the value of each of the grey knobs from 0-100% starting on the upper left and moving clockwise around the pedal.

Check out the videos. Will has done a fantastic job going through the MWBD pro. Go to their site and go into the video section. Will takes the time to go through it thoroughly.
