Quick check-in:

Seems the One Series is okay being powered by the 150mA taps of the Mission 529.

Power bank is an Anker 20KmAh
 
Help required, my newly acquired Dual Expression’s treadle is moving to the toe-down position automatically under its own weight. What do I need to adjust to prevent this happening? Is it under the rocker somewhere or do I need to take the back off? (Was wonder what the extra screws and hex key were for, I guess the latter is for this adjustment.)

Niko has replied and given me instructions. Sadly even on the tightest adjustment, it's still moving.
 
Roger, from looking at the website, it appears to have MIDI functionality closer to the C4 than the AS...True? Presets stored on-pedal, so it can just use the hub as a host?
The Ultrawave will be like the C4, EXCEPT, there is bi-directional USB connection to phones so that you can get a better experience (we did this in the EQ2).

This is great news. Probably will replace the AS on my board with that consideration. After starting with the C4 as a stand alone, once I got the AS, it felt clunky to have to program and save through the hub rather than just going to the device.

I've wondered if I wanted to do the same but am under the impression that there won't be overdrive engines but rather distortion... I use the Aftershock as an always on for its beautiful tube emulation... Please let me know if the new pedal will have these engines :)
 
It's rosewood with some epoxy. That particular pic just looks metallic. The sire eq helps to tame the sizzle and it plays fast and (mostly) in tune!View attachment 4143316

It the Utrawave intended to replace the AfterShock?

I use extremely limited amounts of any kind of distortion, OD, Fuzz, etc. and when I do, they're nearly always layered into a whole bunch of other sounds or used to drive things like filters. The only time I use it 'bare' is a tone that literally has so little drive that most people wouldn't recognize it as any kind of breakup.

In this way, for my purposes the Ultrawave could most likely replace the AS on my board.

There are lots of distortions in the Ultrawave, but not as deep on things like the Aftershock. I suspect people can switch and some cannot.

Good example! @Annette might miss the tube stuff.
