    Zoom B3 patch change via M-vave bluetooth

    thanks bassbrad, but I have had success changing patches via a USBHUB connected to the Ipad via lightning adapter. It works fine, just too many cables for stage use. What I can't do is the same thing using Bluetooth... good to hear the newer ones work tho as I was interested in upgrading to a B6...

My thinking at the moment is to set up a "playlist' of effects in sequence for the songs in the gig. I figured 10 of my favourite effects or ones that suit the various songs would be way...

    Hi all, I just gota B3, wow! kewl. still learning my way around it. Im thinking of purchasing the exp pedal and foot switch but after a fair search I cant work out if these two can be plugged in and used at the same time? I have conflicting memories of old pedals with an in and out where the...
