For anyone interested, recorded a video comparing the hardware of both V1 and V4 VIP versions.
Other than the housing size, broader parameter range, much sturdier and accurate knobs.
110% worth the upgrade if you are on the fence.

I had a conversation with Andras recently and at the end of that he asked me, a working bassist, what are some song examples of synth tone presets I would find usable as a starting point. It seems like the team is actively thinking of this type of thing. These are the songs I provided to him that I routinely play that would benefit from high quality user presets:
- Michael Jackson
- Thriller
- PYT
- The Way You Make Me Feel
- Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough
- Smooth Criminal
- Whitney Houston
- I Wanna Dance with Somebody
- How Will I Know
- Stevie Wonder
- Isn’t She Lovely
- Boogie on Reggae Woman
- Bruno Mars
- 24K Magic
- Finesse
- Chunky
- The Weeknd
- Starboy
- Blinding Lights
- Die For You
- Ginuwine
- Pony
- Chappell Roan
- Pink Pony Club
- The 1975
- Heart Out
- UGH!
- Remi Wolf
- Sexy Villain
- Go West
- The King of Wishful Thinking
- Tears for Fears
- Everybody Wants to Rule The World
- Shout
- Parliament
- Flashlight
- George Clinton
- Atomic Dog
Excellent list. I will buy the next version if the presets are updated with some or all of these bass synth examples.
question,
If I upgrade to the v4 and import all my current sounds from v3 will my morning star mc6 still work the same. IE will all the midi messages be the same, or will I have to reprogram that as well

I would love to be able to easily download patches for many of these songs. I have to admit, though, that I am a bit of a MIDIot.

Lol sorry for blueballing. Give me the weekend
Has anybody here tried the preset pack from "The Bass Negus"? It's on his Patreon:

Just wondering if it might be worth it...

I watched him demo them on his YT but I haven't paid for the pack yet to test them...

Not to do anyone out of income, but I am a bit put out by this as the whole ethos of this pedal is that of free updates and free patch sharing.
Also, some of the classic sounds he’s selling are ones that will be available for free as part of the factory sounds of the next update. I’ve programmed a couple of the MJ patches already using Anthony Marinelli’s tutorial videos and sent them to the team. Andras has also cracked “Pony” with some very clever programming.
That's great, really looking forward to that. I wanted to make all my own sounds but I just don't have time these days.
Do you have a rough idea when this update might be released?

If not officially, then I could easily do that as it’s just a case of copying settings between the two editors. Don’t even need the pedal to do that. I will ask Andras if this could be automated though (I’m sure a script could be run to convert the files the other way (most parameters are identical but there are a few changes between versions).

his massively long videos are enough to make me want to learn to programme a synth from my base level of ignorance rather than send my money his way!!
I got to try some @Quatschmacher classic sounds on his FI4 ... I now want to buy a FI4. And maybe a "Quatschmacher 4Life" t-shirt to go with it.
