The PC editor for the Aftershock has made creating and saving tones so much faster and easier. Thank you so much.

Any chance there will be a preamp pedal in the future? The Aftershock has so many great features (HPF, noise gate, parametric eq) that would pair nicely with a DI out.

Keep up the great work.

I apologize if this has been covered in previous threads, but it's a lot to sift through and I'm not great with these fancier pedals (even though the Nemesis is very user friendly) ...

I'm trying to figure out how to use the Nemesis routing features and I'm a little confused as to whether it will work in the way I want it to.

Basically I have a stereo rig and a signal path that looks like this:

Bass --> tuner --> compressor --> a/b box

output a --> octave pedal --> tremolo pan input/output a --> drive pedals --> nemesis input/output 1--> amp a (highs/mids)

output b --> tremolo pan input/output b --> nemesis input/output 2 --> amp b (lows)

Basically for certain effects, I want the "a" path to get the wet and/or mixed signal, while path "b" is completely dry (not effected by nemesis). I see on the neuro app that there is an option for "mono in, mono out + input 1 dry to output 2", but then I am getting the signal path "a" (input 1) put into amp "b" which is not good if I'm using octave, drives, etc. And if I switch the inputs on the Nemesis, then I won't be able to use those pedals in combination with delay.

I am hoping there is a way to set this up with the "stereo in, stereo out" setting, and I am hoping I'm just too dense to figure it out.
 
Given the hardware and capabilities, can this be implemented?
Sorry, it's not likely this will be implemented.

Thank you for your kind words and feedback! A DI would be cool. Noted.

Sorry, this won't work with any current routing options. You could place an EHX Switchblade after your Tremolo Pan input/output B. If you'd prefer to switch via MIDI, you could place an AfterShock there for the necessary routing options. You would also need a Neuro Hub.

Could you explain how I would do this with the switchblade? Or midi for that matter?

I'm a little surprised that this isn't readily available. I love the nemesis but it seems like a lot of very basic stereo pedals have this function. This isn't something that will be added in the future I take it? I apologize if I'm beating a dead horse by bringing this up (it looks like someone above just asked a similar question).
 
Question about the Neuro Hub: I have an Aftershock now which holds essentially 6 presets (x2 outputs) if I understand correctly. The Neuro Hub documentation seems a little vague to me when it says that it has 128 presets. Does that mean just the main control knob positions, or does that include all of the parameters for a preset, including all of the eq settings?

When you use the Neuro hub each preset can save whatever settings you desire. The engires, the way they are routed, the EQ, etc. can all be completely different from preset to preset. The hub is best used with a midi controller of some kind so you can easily switch presets.
 
Man, that guy's got skills to pay the bills. Have a slot reserved on my new Temple board for the Ventris ;)
Nathan is also the nicest guy you can imagine. We have now worked closely with each other for over 2 years, and I can say that he is 100% wonderful in all ways.
