The manual says to look in Hardware Options (the little option cog on the mobile neuro editor). Then turn on Preset Extension Mode.

If you use press-and-hold to advance the programs, it will go *--- , -*--, --*-, ---*, then -***, *-**, **-*, ***-.

Press-and-hold! Thanks.

I think when the Preset Extension is on,you can repeatedly press the little SELECT button, too. Holding the select button puts you in write mode.

Also check out the on/off switch options at the bottom of page 26. Gives you some options for the footswitch behavior.

FWIW, I only use 4 presets, because of the time it takes for 8 to wrap back around to the one I want. Maybe if I had more demanding stuff happening, I'd use more.

As an aside, I somehow missed that I could load 9-128 on the unit itself. That's a cool tip.

Forgive me if this has been asked.

Could I replace a Boss LS-2 with the EQ2?
Basically, I'd be using using the second channel as an adjustable effects loop.

I've got a good grasp on the pedal so far, but only mono functions.

Yes, the EQ2 can have presets configured with “External Loop” routing mode. The loop is bypassed when the EQ2 is bypassed or switched to a normal preset.

Had a blast at making some Pultec EQ curves on the EQ2 and uploaded them on Neuro. Sounds alright on my set up but if anyone knows more and can take things a bit further that would be cool.

I wish this pedal let you disable EQ points you aren't using to take them off the graph.

 

[onda'bass]

if you don't boost or cut they are not doing anything.

If they are visually bothering you, you can move them off to the side-- like park all the ones you're not using at 20Hz, or 20KHz. Not sure if that will accomplish what you are after, though.

Yeah, I've done those types of workarounds. This pedal has a DAW-like interface, and I'm used to being able to turn them off completely in the DAW world I guess.

I'd like to use Output 2 as a dedicated signal to a pedal tuner, and be able to use my expression pedal through my MIDI controller as a volume pedal only for Output 1. Anyone know if this is possible, and which MIDI parameters would control only the signal level of Output 1 while having full signal on Output 2 never change?

Does anyone have a whining (high frequency buzz) from their EQ-2? Mine does and is driving me nuts! I am even using a DC battery to make sure it's not power supply noise.

 

[stubbsonic]

Does it persist with your bass volume down?

Are you connected to a computer via USB?

Even not connected to the computer.

So you're getting the noise with battery and isolated power supply? If so it has the be the pedal

Yes with a battery.

Question from impending EQ2 user: if I want to simulate an HPF with a shelf hard drop below 45Hz, what Q width should I select? Thx

It has a HPF already available.

We have this built into lots of our bass-oriented pedal. No need to buy and expensive dedicated pedal for this purpose.
