Actually my "Indian electrical installation" (as was called in the breeders thread) is already somewhere on previous pages but here it goes again, don't want to pass for a poser right? :thumbsup:

I want to see a series of five (5) sequential videos of you successfully putting the lid on that case. You know, without cursing while you pinch all those wires to death. :)

Also may I be added to the club? Is that how it works? Been creeping for a long time but finally thought I'd join in on the fun. Have a Manta and a Nemesis and love both to death. The Nemesis has quickly become my favourite piece of gear I own and I cannot think of a delay that could possibly be any better.

You are #216 Lucas! Welcome to SASS. So glad you are liking the Nemesis! The Official SASS listing is on page 200 of this thread.

Hooked up the Nemesis to my bass board. Can't wait for Hub Manager support, have an extra port on my hub just waiting for it.

Now just hurry up and release the Solemate so I can replace my Gecko and I will be set :D

*sigh*
Reminds me of my board at it's peak about a year and a half ago. I think I got one, maybe two gigs on it (and only one on my ideal bass) before my band broke up.

I actually tore it partially down last summer in a bit of premature anticipation of the Solemate. Still functional, but not as fun. Will probably pick up a Nemesis soon, but I'd guess it'll replace the Dimension on the board as that's the one that get's the least amount of use.

Just curious, what was the purpose of the Iguana Tail if you were already using the Hub and have only one row of pedals?

I think it is the missing piece to be able to use the pedals as ordinary stompboxes, if you for instance want to turn pedals on and off during a song (as you can't easily save presets in a bypassed state). This is the one thing that keeps me from using the SA pedals. I've yet to build something around my ES-8 but this is what I'd use the loops for.

Yup, you guys are hitting on all the key points. The one other thing is the SB2 pedals look bigger and uglier in pictures than in person. We did lots of the images as renderings, which did not help. You are also right that bass players have been much more open. Love you guys, but we can't sustain our level in engineering without having the guitar community on board. As least you know via the hiring of Nathan and my continued presence here that we don't forget our first fans. Ever!!!

Part of it may be the vogue of going nano with pedals, phones are getting bigger, pedals getting smaller!

A really good tool is the pedal board builder on the pedal train website which lets you set up a board as you like with scale images of pretty much every pedal out there.

Maybe either a link to that or a similar thing on your website may help.

Certainly I champion the multi wave and manta bass all the time to everyone.

We can make it work, even if I have to talk to guitarists!

I won't presume to speak for Paul, but there is a second row of stuff underneath the Bloxes.

This is part of it, it's hard to tell, but if you look closely you'll notice an orange pedal underneath the right side of the upper tier. That was my octaver that i used one setting on, so I didn't need ready access to the controls.

And this is the rest. Essentially I'd have a program for one song that might be the fuzz I use for the entire song and a phaser that I wanted to add to the chorus. Instead of having to make a program change, I found it was easier to have the phaser already set on the Orbital and simply hit the loop switch for the Orbital when I wanted to kick it in.

Anyone using the Android app and getting it to work? I can't get it to update my Gemini at all....trying with the iOS app once the iPhone charges...

Confirmed, Android app won't send changes to pedal but the Apple/iOS app will.

@rsmith601 @TheSleeve

Also - why can't I set an expression pedal control to a certain parameter in the Neuro app? How can this be done?

1st, sounds like you need to update the firmware in the Gemini. This is NOT done via the App. This is done via USB and PC or Mac. Go to our web site and look in the downloads section. It is vital for good use with the Android phone.

Expression controls is done on the pedal, not via the app because the exp. pedal needs to interact with the Gemini. Page 16 of the manual has a very good step by step description of how this works.

I did both of these things. Gemini on 1.06 and the Android app still won't send updates.

Read the manual for expression control and the pedal wasn't picking up the expression output from my Hub.

Oh, sorry. Did not know you were using the Hub for EXP. Not sure how that is supported at the moment. Roger needs to talk with the engineering department on Monday.

Just so I know: what Android device? What version of Android software?

So after playing a bit with the Nemesis I must say I'm delighted and even got to the point of planing on using it for more than just delays. The Shifting algorithms are amazing and inspiring as are others.
I'm still wrapping my head around the Neuro App and all that but is seems like I'll be spending quite a nice time with this box.
