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

Hi bassvirtuoso,

I can't promise an exact release date, but Jesse told me he's aiming to have a beta version available next week.

I initially became interested in SA from these threads. The sound quality and the support you guys provide is top notch. I was saving to buy a Manta and my wife suprised me and got it for my birthday, so now I guess I'll take the money and buy the Hub or the OFD, hahaha.... I messed with the Manta last night for about an hour and I'm totally digging it!! Looking forward to the Hub Manager!
 
Just got a Manta in last night from TBer XXL! I'm putting together a new mini-board tonight, so I'll post a pic later.

I look forward to being counted among you fine fine sorcerers. Can I get a number please El Presidente Smith?

Same here please... This one pedal has caused a major pedalboard overhaul. It is replacing 2 pedals and now I will have room for the Hub and OFD, hahaha...

Picked up a MWBD, Dimension Reverb and HH3 last week and put them on a Jr with some other favorites. Really liking the result--quiet board, amazing sounds, plenty of fun and useful options.

BTW, after experimenting a bit, running this tuner>distortion>filter>overdrive>compressor>reverb>delay>looper.
 
Dear Sourcererersers,
I'm happy to offer up a Beta version test drive of Hub Manager 2.0
There are no software installers, you can find the Windows and Mac applications here:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ub7fzm46lizlzm0/AABrSe1S0qQvSRMmZNultVTKa

Just download, unzip and let 'em rip. Download the firmware and readme files also.

This is a special sneak peak for our faithful TB friends. Hope you enjoy.

Please be sure to view the README file in the folder above.
And you MUST update firmware (both Hub and pedals) to the latest versions in the dropbox folder.

Let us know what you think!

Thanks,
Jesse

I'm assuming at some point naming scenes will be possible, looks like some space is left, and I'm even more assuminginging that will tie in with the future MIDI Controller you guys are working on. So awesome, I'll be able to save all the sections in a setlist format and move scenes around. Very exciting times!

Hi all - I recently acquired a Soundblox Pro BEF and Soundblox Pro Multiwave Bass Distortion...just curious if you're able to get a classic 60s/70s Ampeg SVT sound and if so, which settings work best. I've been fiddling around but haven't come up with anything I like so far. I'm sure it can be done with the Multiwave Bass Distortion, just haven't figured it out in the limited time I've had with the pedals so far. Any tips?

Indeed you can name scenes! In fact, if you click the "save scene as..." button, you should be able to give the file a name and the name will be associated with the scene.

(At least, I think that's how it works... I don't have my computer handy at the moment!)

This makes me really want to get a Hub! Not sure it would be worth it just for one Manta right now, and with a relative lack of MIDI controlling options. But that looks sweet.
 
Looks like a great interface and will make reviewing and tweaking easier. I play in a cover band and I was always trying to find the 'all encompassing setting' for my pedals, especially synth and envelope filter. With this I will be able to really dial in some great presets. Great work guys!
