Hi. No, it can't be. The usb connection is only for updates. No usb-power and usb-soundcard capabilities.

Thank you so much for your response. So in order to record with this, I will have to run to through an audio interface right? i've been using the Line 6 Firehawk FX as an audio interface for my guitar stuff, wonder if I could do the same for the B3n

Charlie (or owner of above pedal board) --

Any info on the pearl board junction box on upper right? Like brand name, any other functionality besides being a "junction". Curious, have not seen one before.
Thanks!

I sourced the picture from a Facebook search, but a Google search revealed that the same junction box can be purchased from Sweetwater.

This just in from my representative at Sweetwater:


Nxxxxxxx Wxxxxxr from Sweetwater Sound, looks like zoom is moving the pedal back again!
My fingers were crossed that it was coming in this week, but looks like towards the end of the month now.
I just got the updated today.​

I appreciate your patients, Zoom just updated us today.

Phoque I wish he would learn how to spell . . . ..

No, he really appreciates nursing your sick friends back to health. Chronic GAS is difficult to treat... :)

For you folks that already have the pedal (I'm pre-ordered), can you explain how the on/off functions for the various effects work? In the effects list, you'll see that some functions of different effects are highlighted grey and appear to be user controlled functions within the effect.

A lot of the grey functions are sweeps such as wah or volume, and it makes sense that they would be controlled by the optional rocker pedal. You use the stomp to turn the effect on/off, and the rocker pedal to control the sweep function. But some of the functions, like boost on the B7K effect, appear to be on/off functions. It would seem odd to try to control on/off with the rocker pedal, so I asked Zoom support.

Zoom support and they said that the gray highlighting means the function is controlled by the stomp switch to the right of the effect. Can someone explain that? That makes it sound like an effect with an on/off function consumes two of the three stomp switches. i.e. one stomp to turn the B7K effect on/off and a second stomp to turn the boost parameter on/off. That would be a big time bummer.

Any thoughts?

This is exactly how this functionality plays-out and it would be a bummer if not for the ability to Scroll effects in and out of view.

Cheers!
