Hello. I've been working on an app to control the ZOOM B1on, B1Xon, G1on and G1Xon. Here's a screenshot...

In the left panel you can...
- Edit the current patch name
- Edit the current patch level
- Change the current patch
- Change the current patch by name
- Swap patches by dragging patch names
- Backup and restore patches (using XML files for portable and unlimited storage)
- Browse effects by type
- Change effects by dragging the effect icons onto a channel (in the right panel)

In the right panel you can...
- Rearrange the effect channels by dragging the effect icons
- Bypass effects
- Delete effects
- Change any effect parameter (in real time)

The app responds when the following changes are made on the zoom device...
- Changing patches
- Changing parameters (in real time)
- Changing effects
- Adding effects
- Deleting effects
- Bypassing Effects

There are some limitations to what can be acheived, but the app offers a great deal of control of these ZOOM pedals.

I'm nearly ready to release the app. Pricing is yet to be established.
It will be available for Windows, Linux, and Mac

At this stage, all comments are welcome.

Thanks

Oh, and I suspect the TalkBass management is going to be having a talk with you about their commercial use policies ;). Do you have a website/blog/FBpage or some such?

Hi. No it's a controller for the devices mentioned. Oh, I hope not in trouble! Just trying to find out if anyone would be interested in it. Really surprised that there's nothing available for editing these Zoom pedals. Other Zoom pedals have some editing software, but these cheaper pedals only have patch sharing apps.

No facebook or website yet - just testing the water :)
