Source Audio Sourcerers Society (S.A.S.S.) Pt 2

#82
I'm having to send in my multiwave bass for repairs. :(
The other day it started to not register higher notes and quickly fades out. I had to pluck the stings really hard to get a signal.
Contacted customer support yesterday, so hopefully I can have working again soon.

That's too true. Lots of folks like me shop for effects on the internet. Getting a good walkthrough and good audio samples is key for finding out if it's what I want. The SA videos are excellent. High information content, good audio demos--and not overly slick, either. (Looking at you, MXR.)

Exactly, I almost posted the same thing last week and comparing with MXR type demos. Will does a great job of not just showing the fx, but explaining the hows and whys. Sold me even though the only Classic Pro video was the Octave Drop demo, but by showing the MWBD throughly I knew it wasn't right for me at that time.

It's cool that he is getting requests to make the videos.

Edit: Jesse and Bob actually did the Classic Pro video that helped me, they make good videos also.

Hey, anyone else tried this yet?

Edit/update: Incase anyone is interested, this works!! That said, I'm really not as into fx on the EUB. They work fine, but you lose most of that Upright quality and sound. It just starts sounding like a regular bass, but still looks extremely cool :)

Question out of curiosity... Can you dial in the tap tempo for the LFO on the BEF Pro before the effect is engaged? Application: only using the LFO on the chorus or verse of different songs in a single set with different tempos. Maybe a good addition to the BEF Pro would be a separate tap tempo button.

On a side note, every time I use the random step LFO I get compliments on how insane it sounds. Also, I used the HH3 live for the first time the other night in a set. Very subtle actually during a slow instrumental in addition to an EHX Multiplexer. Everyone loved it!

A little update. I decided to assemble a full-on pedalboard a couple of months ago (always had pedals before...but this time around it's been a bit more intense :-))...seems all the SA pedals have survived the selection process...now please don't make more...the board is full.

Great thread! I just picked up a BEFPRO from a member here on the classifieds and I'm loving it so far. I will probably be picking up a HH3 for myself for christmas too so my question is this: can I control my M5 with the HH3 as well as the BEFPRO? I thought I read Gadgetjunky state he was doing that somehow? Or if I want control over the BEFPRO & M5 do I need one of those dual expression pedals? Also can you use the HH3 and Dual Expression pedals simultaneously if that is the case?
Sorry if that's too many questions but I'm out of pedal board real estate so I need to know how this stuff works better before I keep buying pedals my stash of stuff not currently on my board is getting out of hand!

For the record I have searched the interwebs and browsed many YouTube videos looking for these answers so sorry if this has already been discussed and I missed it.

Oh and can I get a number? This will be my first TB club!

Yes you can. The TRS output to the M5 and the sensor out to the BEF Pro.

Or you can hook up both of the HH3 ouuts to the BEF Pro and have 2 axis control of the BEF Pro. I have done this and it works! It is more difficult to get controlled sweeps like you get with an expression pedal on the BEF Pro. So that's why the HH3 is hooked up to my M5. So now with 2 Hot Hands, I can get wobbles with my hand using original HH daisy chained to all my pro pedals and do dive bombs with the angle of guitar neck and kick on the Octave and delay on the M5 when I raise the guitar neck (HH3 on headstock)

Now the goods news, the M5 uses a regular instrument cable and the HH3 comes with a 4 conductor sensor cable, so you will be good to go pretty easily. You will need to adjust the dip shitch to the line 6 setting.

Now the only question I can't answer is using the HH3 TRS output on the BEF Pro and M5 at th same time with an expressionator. I see that the expressionator has an adapter for line 6, so I imagine with that adapter and the HH3 dip switches on their default setting it would work, but I'm not 100% sure without actually having an expressionator.

Actually, if you examine the HH3 manual it pretty much shows this type of setup. (page 6)

But this is the place to get solutions. If you need some crazy idea tested, I'd be glad to try, like the saving a mid-morph as a preset. Official SA response was "not possible" and basically that is true, but I learned that both bank presets were copies at the same time. A neat undocumented feature.

Edit: to not confuse, the BEF Pro does not Morph preset. I was referring the the Classic Distortion and MWBD Pro's. But the BEF Pro can remap the midi addresses for presets

I'm at a stop light so I can't type much. But I was referring to the Source Audio dual expression pedal not the expresionator which I can't remember exactly what it does. But thanks for all the great info Gadgetjunky! Really good stuff thanks a lot! I'm gonna have to digest this more before I make a decision now! Thanks again! Lights green gotta go ttyl!
