Hej

I just bought Neuro Hub, and I have a Tech21 Midi Mouse so want to connect them to each other.

As I understand all i need to do is, when I want to create a preset, I hold "Scan Devices" button and it will save it on Neuro Hub. Lets say Midi controller is at setting 1

Then if I want to save another setting, I will change the preset on Midi Controller from 1 to 2, and hold "Scan Devices" button on Neuro Hub again.

Am I getting it correctly?

Also does any Midi to Midi cable would work or does it have to be a special cable?

Because we committed early on to SigmaDSP, we have had a long runway with those processors. They are small, super fast, cost effective, and we code them by hand for maximum efficiency. If we need to put 2 in a box, we can. Users of FreeScale, SHARC, FV-1k, and BlackFin have had less flexibility and moved on if they had in the in-house DSP chops to do so (I believe we are the only dual DSP pedal company). Porting a library of DSP algorithms to a new platform is really challenging. Getting the same sounds and doing it in real time (no latency) can take months of work. You will all note that we have perfected platform jumping with SoundCheck. For example, the C4 can run on Intel, RISC, DSP, M series, etc.

I have noted before the RISC processors are the future rather than dedicated DSP chips. Its not simple using them, but they are getting faster and faster.

I just had a penny drop moment ... and how the functionality you've managed with soundcheck must be way more exciting for you guys than just letting musicians try out effects at home!

Alright so I've played with it a little, but it's late and I don't want my neighbors complaining.

First thoughts: this is the first drive pedal I've used that has what you might call "subtle" settings that I find useful. With the clean at unity gain, I can dial in distortion so that it's just there. This actually sounds present and musical with this pedal. I've done much less knob tweaking than I usually have to to get a good sound. This thing is great so far!

This was my experience as well....the Aftershock ended my dirt pedal search!

@rsmith601 is the extra cable one to connect the pedal to a standard expression pedal? Are these available to buy separately?

They're available from our store, but they are meant for the neuro app when phones still had a headphone Jack. Will not work with the control input for standard expression controllers.

With the multiple engines, detailed EQ and dry blend, the whole Dirty Trinity are ideal for bass.

I think that extra cable was to connect a smart device's headphone output to input #2 for data control from Neuro to the pedal.

Here's a SA blog post about using 3rd party expression pedals.

No, it is for connecting the pedal to a headphone jack on a phone so you can explore thousands of community presets. I would suggest using a computer and USB. Its much easier.

Does the Aftershock have engines representing the Maestro Brassmaster or the Malekko B:Assmaster? If so, which ones would the be?

If not, any chance of getting some?

This is what I get from a Neuro preset search: https://neuro.sourceaudio.net/?search=brassmaster

As I recall, some folks got in the neighborhood when Aftershock came out. No presets were posted, unfortunately. Some others might comment on this.

Hej

I have tried to setup neurohub first time on my android tablet.

I connected Atlas, Aftershock and C4 to neurohub, then I have connected the Hub to my Tablet. I can discover devices when I scan on neuro hub, however I can not seem to save presets when I hold the button on Neurohub.

Am I doing something wrong?

Regards

Mobile does not work with the neuro hub, you'll need to use the desktop app for neuro hub
