Finally got my board together. Will be working with the hot hand today to find some cool sounds.

How do you like your looper? They have a 6 loop on sale right now. (No master bypass or tuner out, just straight 6 loop.) I was thinking about getting two of them. They look awesome, how do you like it and would you say that options such as the master bypass are necessary? Also any pedals it's not friendly with or difficult to use with?

willsellout · #**225** 01-13-2013, 11:18 AM

HH3 definitely not something I'm going to use. I have it listed for sale in the classifieds if anyone is interested in trying it out.

Here is my pedalboard

Man, that looper was totally worth the like 3-4 month wait. I baby my pedals when I have to hit them (I still have to hit the PF and the SA stuff quite a bit) but when I have it all set ( like 75% of the time) I can just totally mash on the looper and other aux switches and exp pedal. The switches in the looper seem pretty tough, and I have used it 3-5 times a week for like 8-9 months.

Master bypass is a total must, if you want to set up a crazy sound based on several different components and come in like the horseman of death.

If you get the switches staggered then you can set up dirt/synth combos and with one stomp add/subtract 2 or switch betwee 2 adjacent ones

TUner out didnt seem like a big deal to me. Mine has 6 loops w/master bypass

It's just a passive switch so I assume it's friendly with all pedals. Now they have digital ones out though, that will change the order and have programmable presets

Thanks for the info! Maybe I'll get the six loop and 4 loop with master bypass instead... Can't decide now!! Haha. I did hear on their website they supposedly shortened the wait time to 2-3 weeks now though so that's a plus!

My new BEF Pro has arrived today xD Still haven't unboxed it 'cause i'm at work though...
Tonight I'll try to put the whole MIDI rig together and then I'll post some pics.

Anyone used LFO to dial in that Leslie cab sound John Paul Jones got on Heartbreaker? Asking for a friend.

nsh50a · #**231** 01-14-2013, 01:41 PM

I've been searching through the prior SA threads and cant quite find the answer I'm looking for. Have the BEF Pro and love it and just got the dimension reverb. I love having trails and didn't realize that it required the sensor out/in connection from the dual expression pedal to allow this. Does anybody know what signals (within the 4 connector 1/8" jack) are used via the pedal to allow this with the reverb and if anyone has successfully used an adapter to allow the function with a 3rd party expression pedal. I've got a couple of expression pedals not being used so If i have to buy the dual expression simply to get a trails function, i'm pretty much at the $300/blue sky level for a reverb.

I did use the lfo section with a micro pog damn it sounds beautiful

Can someone help me with MIDI on the BEF?
I have an e-mail from sourceaudio saying that the CC 24 is the one to use for MIDI modulation to make the Wha sound but CC 24 does not do anything.
How do I send modulation by MIDI?

Try CC 020, but then you still need to make adjustments in the backpage.

XD - controls expression depth and which direction +/-

EC - #4 Modulation

I'm not totally sure, but when this undocumented cc#24 came up I couldn't get it to work either and found that almost any of the CC's worked about the same once you start fidding with the backpage stuff.

Skrogh · #**236** 01-15-2013, 02:59 PM

I think I got #24 working at some point

Gadgetjunky · #**237** 01-15-2013, 03:18 PM

The idea behind CC#24 was to have it function with the backpage menu like plugging in an expression pedal in the exp input giving you access to all 13 XC positions. So you will have to change settings as mentioned above.

That was what I thought to so I went to the backpage and changed the expression function to modulation.
Tomorow I'll try messing with backpage a bit more. I got some results with CC 20 but not so good as what you see on the BEFpro demo video.
Thanks

Excited to go into the studio with my MWBD Pro tomorrow! I could probably use a bigger board though...

I'm holding out for a Soundblox 2 BEF to replace the bass synth and phase shifter.

There is a nice trick we did not put in the manual that will get you the trails you want. You can set the Dimension Reverb to 'soft bypass' mode by pressing down on both foot switches while powering the pedal up. In this mode, when you deactivate the effect, the reverb will trail off.

As a note, you have to be careful where you set the wet dry mix so that you still have a good dry level when the effect is off.
