Got the Aftershock today, finally. I regret not getting the tap tempo switch so that I can alternate two settings for each switch position. Anyone has any idea whether there's any alternative I can use?

Well it's working like it out to except the expression pedal acts a little wild with the bit crusher. Kind of runs away unless it's in full heel down position. That may be a parameter change in the presets though.

I'm loving it!!! It sounds soooooooooo good with everything else I have!

Nemesis question:

How do I set up an expression pedal (attached to the hub exp port) to control a parameter in the Nemesis?
I'm using the hub manager software. I can set scenes and change the sounds already. Firmware in up to date. Sounds change as expected when I tweak knobs via the software. Expression pedal works as expected to control Manta and OFD via the hub. I just can't figure out the Nemesis page in the software. If someone can walk me through getting it to control any parameter, I'd appreciate it.

so I noticed I got an update on my phone this morning for the neuro app and now I have the new file browser and I have the web tab now and the factory presets from the LA lady and kingmaker that I never had before but still no freq in HZ on the EQ section, was that not added to this update of am I still just getting partial updates for some reason??

@rsmith601 was it in this thread? Searching this thread for "tap tempo" or "schematic" doesn't seem to yield anything.

Is the source audio tap tempo a normal tap tempo, except that the jack is for 3.8mm instead of the usual 1/4"?

Can I use this schematic (just swap out to a 3.8mm jack)?

It's a little more complicated than that. It actually requires a special circuit and a TRRS jack.

The circuit is contained in the user manual ([Invalid or Expired Link Removed]), but I included it below for your convenience.

I never have set up the exp pedal via the Hub manager, but if you go through the pedal hardware steps and save it as a scene it should work that way.

If I connect the Dual XP directly to the Nemesis EXP (¼") port and do the pedal hardware setup, it works. I tried using the ⅛" cable to the Control Input, but had no luck with that. When I connect the Dual XP to the hub EXP port, I can control the Manta or the OFD but not the Nemesis. I can't just use the 2nd ¼" cable to go to the Nemesis directly because that one goes to the Mobius. Guess I'll email SA support on Monday.

It should work just going through the hub and set it up like its directly connected.

I remember mine acting up as well now that you bring it up. I could only get the 1/4" exp jack to work, although I hadn't tried it through the hub yet. I did finally get my board back in order so I have the Soleman and hub in the mix, so I can check in this later.

Finally got my Aftershock the other day & have been making a few presets along with the Mercury, also got Subdecay Echobox in the loop of AS, such a great feature though not sure how well it will do in the effects loop of my incoming amp ..? Glockenklang Heart Rock II on the way, hopefully it pairs up nicely with my Bagend D12-D ... and gone midi for the first time !

Hey guys, figured I'd ask here since the majority of my power needs are SA related.

I've been spending time troubleshooting a high pitched squeal in my board. It's very subtle, but once dirt is kicked on it magnifies itself and its obnoxious. I've more or less narrowed it down to power supply since half my board is on a once spot, and unplugging any two pedals from it causes it to go away (I've tried narrowing it down to a specific pedal or cable, but it acts the same throughout multiple scenarios)

Anyway, I am going to bite the bullet and invest in a power supply. I currently have a Fuel Tank Chaneleon and a one spot and daisy chain. I could get a second fuel tank bit I'd rather a single simple solution.

Pedals I have (and plan to keep)
SA Nemesis
SA Aftershock
SA Manta
SA Soleman (70ma)
SA Hub
Darkglass B7KU
DG Duality
DG Super Symmetry
Digitech Meatbox
Polytune 2
Boss OC-2

I also have room for 2 more pedals so ideally I'd like to plan for a full board.

All that's listed is 9v DC, so that makes it simpler than AC and weird voltage amounts.

Add the power requirements (mA) to the list, that would make it easier to choose a power supply.

I think I will answer MXR Iso Brick anyway, a few of the (analog) pedals would have to share an outlet though.

Strymon has a new power supply out soon that does 9x500mA. I use a Pedal Power 2+ and a Pedal Power Digital. With 11 pedals on your board and potentially 2 more, I can't think of any single power supply that will work without daisy-chaining pedals.

The Strymon one will chain a 2nd 5-spot power supply off of it making 14 from one AC plug. Invalid Link Removed
