Source Audio Sorcerers Society (S.A.S.S) Part 3

I am pretty excited for he iPad app. Will it be able to edit SB2 stuff as well?

Regarding the sb2 form factor I think it's brilliant. Top jacks, 2 presets, so much more and it's super compact. Plus I've had 2 setups that needed a little extra space and the recessed corner next to the foot switch gave me that little extra space.

Waiting to see which pedal comes next, and which one I will absolutely have to get.

If you have a scene with an Orbital Phaser, Gemini can play it. Lots of options. Gemini can also do all the Orbital stuff, you just need to edit it via USB
Okay, wow, so each of these small pedals have full functionality? Then I guess these pedals -would- improve pedalboard space massively.

or via your phone (more on this later).
Hope the SB2 and hub can be controlled by phone too!

The new series is making me very excited, the sheer number of pedals and innovations are a real turn on.

Also, this ->
I would be very happy to find an octaver amongst those 11 ...

Finally, as a heavy iOS user, I also have this question ->

Look at him. He just got the hub over Christmas and he's already asking for scenes ;)

It's nice to have that feature.

Yeah, but I've been super lazy in using it so far. I don't really have anything set up, in part because I have so many ideas and not a lot of guidance. Hence asking people for starting points. :D
 
Do you have a scene for this?

I have a scene set up, good thing too because I literally have no idea what settings I'm in. I think I accidentally put the manta in advanced mode and used one of those filters for it. I'll try to copy it for you at some point.

You'll really need an mSeries pedal to get the fuzzy/glitchy sound though.

As in Line6 M-series? I do have an M5.

Yep exactly. The signal is OFD, m5, Manta. The OFD I 'think' was set up as a high cut specifically to not allow the treble to glitch out the synth. I used one of the synth patches on the m5, then the manta.

Usually to find a manta sweep I like ill set almost everything to the left on freq, resonance, mix on full wet, usually stick with the left most drive at first. Then the Filter mod and speed both left. I'll then just circle around the filter types until something fits or gets close, then fine tweak the drive, etc. however I got in advanced mode actually added a lot more 'useful' filters. I say useful, but that's not really the word I mean, but more stuff, or something.

Anyway. I'll try to get the scene for you.
 
OK as promised, here's the scene. Hopefully its on the same setting as I left it. I couldnt get to plug it in before copying it.

For the M5, here's my settings since I can't 'share' them.

Again, chain is OFD, M5, Manta - Expression pedal on the manta set to default (filter modulation)

While I'm at it I just made a list that has everything I have worth sharing.


[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- Dubstep wobble using EXP pedal on manta

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- Filter sound for Michael Jackson "Chicago"

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- A different sounding 'dubstep' wobble using EXP on Manta

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- Basic fuzz sound. Use an octaver to thicken it up

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- Add an octaver before your SA chain for this to sound right. For Muse "Madness"

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- A higher driven drive sound.

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- Set OFD to a volume pedal controlled by EXP with hi-cut, and Manta to a slow phaser sound. Put a delay after the OFD and either before or after the Manta. Makes a setting for a nice volume swell, ambient patch. NEEDS DELAY/REVERB

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
- This is my 90% of the time Always on sound. Unless I need something perfectly clean or higher gain I am using this sound all the time.

Enjoy!

By the way I did delve into the Hub last night and downloaded your Chicago and Madness patches, @adamaarts (from your earlier posts, not the one above that isn't working for me). Thanks! Very well done. The Chicago patch in particular sounded great with my setup.

Overall it was very cool what I could do with the Hub and Hub Manager, although the Hub Manager crashed on me a few times---not sure what I was doing wrong.

I'm having trouble accessing those. Did you forget to set it to public?

Sorry about that. I made folders inside my public folder, thinking they should work, but I guess they weren't. I out everything back directly in the Public folder and edited the links. It should work now.

Also, For whatever reason the dubstep setting initially didn't save any actual pedal settings, just a blank scene, most likely user error as I didn't do the process right the first time I am sure. So added that one in so that one is right now.
