What kind of cable do I need to buy to hook this thing up to my pc? I was hoping there would be a USB port on the thing but no such luck. Is it a midi to usb converter cable?

Have you tried the editor software? It lays all your important parameters out on one screen, to make for easy configuration. It also makes it easy to save and arrange your presets, for quicker access live.

Adding the MIDI footswitch was a game changer for me. It definitely helped out with Live Performance.

After reading 33 pages of part one to this thread I cut to the chase and subbed part II.
The V Amp Pro has been ordered and so have MIDI to USB cables.
Roll on the end of the week when it arrives.

hello kodiakblair,
it's a small world! I used to own a v-amp pro and I was impressed by its abilities and sound. Enjoy yours!

Thanks subdude
We must have impeccable taste judging by the circles we moved Brother
The plan is to use the V-amp along with a power amp,more versatile that way.

Anyone want to come over to my house tomorrow and hook up the MIDI so I can edit this thing using my computer? (jk) I'm having a heck of a time trying (and failing).
Can anyone point me in the direction of some tone libraries. The Behringer site one doesn't come up
just a 404 message.

Hi, Im new here 
Read the first thread and downloaded the tip pdfs, thanks for those
Ive been using a Vamp2 with guitar for about 15 years, got myself a bass and continued using it.
Just bought the Bass Vamp pro (£69 from Digital Village Uk....bargain!)
Not impressed with the presets, will have to tweak it some.
Had my Vamp2 sounding much better / fatter.
I already have an FCB1010 with UnO (I use with my DAW and synths) Ill hopefully get this setup with it.
(I also have the Behringer Synth Bass and Harmoniser/Ultra Shifter pedals........amazing for the money)
Anyway.....
My BAP is slightly pink/red in colour and has date code 1401 on the box, I presume this is a newish one?

Soooooo.......
I want to program the FCB1010 (with UnO eprom) to control the BAP but cant find a midi reference for the BAP......anywhere?!?!?!!!!!
How are you supposed to program any midi controller to control it if you dont know what midi messages are used for each function?

I bought a used one and either the PO didn't know what he was doing or the settings were corrupted and were awful. A factory reset cleaned it up so at least the sound is usable, it was way out in left field. I'm going to check the battery too.

These might help.
I bought one of the USB to MIDI adapter cables, but am having no luck getting it to connect to the VAMP. I've turned Midi on in the edit menu, and the USB-MIDI box lights don't indicate anything and the Vamp2.exe software doesn't see the preamp when it scans. Any clues welcome... ?
I'm suspecting the MIDI adapter actually...

I don't have my Vamp pro anymore but I had the same problem, it turned out to be the cheap cable. Just in case, did you try swapping the 2 MIDI connectors?
Yeah, tried that. I figure out goes to in, in goes to out... That's the normal MIDI way, but I tried swapping them too.
I suspect the cheapo MIDI_USB adapter too. Thanks for the help and info.

I tried two of those cheap Midi-USB cables and neither worked. M-Audio Midisport 1x1 worked fine.
